Drum Roll Please.... League vs. DotA


So.. Its time to cover a very... controversial topic. 

LEAGUE VS. DOTA 2.

Yes, I just went there.

Well this is awkward isn't it... I'll try not to be biased. 
*ahem league wins*

So lets start with a few similarities
League and DotA 2 have a few key similarities like:

  • -They are both MOBAs (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena)
  • -Lanes 
  • -Phases (Laning and Grouping)
  • -Minions/Creeps (AI. controlled monsters spawned periodically to keep lanes pushing against each other)
  • -Champions(LoL)/Heroes(DotA 2) AKA characters
  • -Skill Shots (Abilities that need to be aimed)
  • -etc., etc.
  • And the differences...
  • -LoL has better champion art, and I'm not biased. I'm sure most people can agree.
  • -DotA 2 has more realistic graphics, but the game looks much darker and much more serious.
  • -Unlike LoL, in DotA 2 you start with ALL the champions instead of having to work up experience to purchase them from the in game store, which I think is more respectable. *cough cough*
  • -LoL has more champions than DotA 2 has heroes.

Okay, so I'll stop with the listing there. I'm definitely pretty biased because I don't have much experience with DotA or its community, but I can say, odds are, the DotA community is probably better than LoL. The LoL community is horrendously sickening.  

That's all for this week! Have a good week! In the words of Arnold Shwarzenegger, I'll be back.
