Why aren't you playing MOBA of the year?

Because they'd have to actively try to make it any more boring

Fun game but it takes way too long to lvl to 40 especially if you play solo

That feel when I completely don't understand what's going on in MOBAs, what to do how to play

Iam too old for this shit
Iam a fucking granpa now
>>
>>323718304

HOTS is a lot easier for newbies to try. It got me into MOBAs so it's a start. You can go on to the others like LoL or whatever if you're interested.
>>
>>323718304
how old are you anon?
>>
>>323718304
I hope you are not talking about HotS specifically, because it's simpler than breathing
>>
>>323718908
26
>>
>>323714693
I played it for about 20 hours, then lost complete interest. Some of the characters are fine but the entire MOBA genre is fucking stagnant. Like after 4 years of LoL, 2 of Dota 2 and about 2 weeks of HotS, I'm entirely fucking done with those games.
>>
>>323718304
It's something that makes no sense on the surface and can't really be explained very well, you have to get it over time by playing
>>
>>323718304
Heroes is simple gramps, I avoided shit like DOTA and whatever because of the shitty toxic community, this one is pretty chill.
>>
>>323718304
In terms of difficulty:
HotS: Stay alive and fulfill the map specific objectives. This is the easiest of the three to play.
LoL & DotA: Stay alive while accumulating gold and purchasing items while also assisting your team and killing enemy heroes. Push all the way into the enemy's base and destroy the objective building to win.

Mobas are all about learning to play specific heroes, Anon. Did you play Warcraft 3? Remember how each race had like 4 heroes to choose from? A Moba is that, but minus the base and army management aspect.
>>
>>323720137
>implying lol and dota are on the same difficulty level
jej
>>
>>323720137
HotS, while being heavily simplified due to not having to get gold and buy items, has strategy that League and DotA don't because of the size of the map, unique map objectives, mercenaries, etc.
>>
>>323720137
>A Moba is that, but minus the base and army management aspect.

I disagree.
>>
Too expensive, too shallow, not fun at all. Literally no reason to play over Dota 2.
>>

>>323721492
So LoL is the best MOBA then?
>>
>>323721701
In terms of Esports yeah. DOTA 2 is still better gameplay.
>>
>>323721792
But how can we know if it has better gameplay if it doesn't have Twitch views? How come it isn't as big as LoL in Esports if it has better gameplay?
>>
>>323714693
Because mobas are a dogshit genre of game.
>>
MOBA's suck.
>>
>>323721906
>How come it isn't as big as LoL in Esports if it has better gameplay?
LoL is more casual and has mass appeal. They also use bots to inflate viewer numbers.

All those other games don't?
>>
>>323722674
Well so far Riot have been the only ones caught doing it.
>>
>>323714693
tell me when they fix ranked and make rank 1 not worthless

When will the MOBA meme finally end?

I've played over 12,000 games of LoL and over 2,500 hours of Dota since 2009. I play Heroes as a retirement game after not touching mobas since 2013.

HotS is ok, it cuts out a lot of the depth sure, but it allows easier more fun games. Seriously fighting with 0/18/0 Viegars or getting fountain camped in Dota is horrible and Heroes doesn't really allow this horrible games to exist because how the events and towers/ammunition works.

It's a good retirement game where you still get the assfaggots itch, but don't want to deal with all the bullshit that is dumbasses getting your courier killed or your team going all carrys.

Yes, it's casual, but it's fun. Which is all I ask of my video games sometimes.

>>323714693
Is that Genn Greymane
>>
>>323721906
In my 4 years of playing Dota 2 I have never once heard of anyone watching Dota players on twitch.

Whenever Dota players want to watch pros play they just watch through the in game client.

Lel that's how I treat it as well. Used to play dota but I can't afford to spend that much time, attention, and focus on matches anymore.

That isn't the point.

>>323723329
those Riot viewers are way more likely to be bots.

Cmon.. Zxc745229663 ?

Compared to

00dante22

The only dota ones that are curious are

0326004
092222219
040813
041131799
0124dhadhang
019bjkcin

the rest could be legit as fuck and seem to be.

When you see an obscure game like that at the top it's just a popular streamer playing it with all the views

yeah 3k players are pretty trash.

>>323727545
arc warden. newest hero
>>
>>323727683
They really are, I started out in 1.8k because I calibrated my rank immediately when I started playing like a tard.

Its been a long and terrible journey.
>>
>>323718304
Nothing wrong with not understand shitty fads. Like Fantasy Sports. Its gay, and has no use out side of gambling. I rather play poker.

Because if you have one shitty player on your team, the game is over.

>>323723376
It's undeniably better than it's ever been, but at the end of the day i still lose interest as it gets older
