I'm a Dota player but tried LoL which is supposed to be easier. There's a ton of complex shit: >jungle creeps that give your team a buff >runes >summoner spells >more fast paced >cant deny creeps >map is more zoomed in
Seriously every time a fight happens in LoL I have no idea what the fuck is going on, its just tons of flashy spells flying everywhere
In Dota its quite easy to see what your enemy will do, when he starts walking towards you you think "ok he's gonna use this spell so i should counter with this"
Its only because you're used to dota. Most league players say the absolute same about Dota. They both play different and need their own standart knowledge, but in the end dota has more stuff to pay attention to and is less forgiving. I actually think League is more fun though, Dota 2 kind of feels like a failure after playing wc3 dota for an eternity
David Reed
You'll never see something hilarious like this in League
Jack Butler
How is Dota 2 worse than DotA? The colors in DotA were shit
Lucas Hall
The ui is horrible, the heros look kind of horrible (compared to the original design), the map changes seem retarded, the way heros move (turnspeed etc.) The whole game just seems to look less clean
Jose Gutierrez
>a ton of complex shit and none of it matters in either game because retards get to play with retards all they want. which means the complexity amounts to moronic kids with xboxs and playstations running their mouth about the gpu specs. they will never play that game.

Jackson Anderson
out fucking skilled

>jungle creeps that give your team a buff To give jungle better at farming in the jungle. baron and dragons are to make the game end fast. >runes To customize your champion in a small way. >summoner spells the only summoner spells that are a must is flash to run away or get a kill. others are there if you need damage, teleport, heal, or a shield. >more fast-paced that because of a lot of newer champions are having an ability that gives them dashes, teleports, or blinks abilities. >can't deny creeps you can by controlling the creep wave or zoning >map is more zoomed in it just on lol is.
League is hard and there is PLENTY to take into account when playing. It's a complex game people who say otherwise are shitters and would never make it out of silver in the first place.
Ryan Hernandez
This board is infested with doTARDS unfortunately.
Jacob Miller
I thought League was a lot more fun but Flash was pure cancer and the devs refused to balance it. They spent over a year talking about how they were internally getting ready to remove flash, how testing showed the game was much more interesting and fun without flash (this was posted by Zileas btw), and then the second they got bought out by Tencent they completely stopped.
Caleb Williams
We literally just had this thread with your same copypasta OP. Can we fucking not?
Nathan Lopez
Oh sorry I thought this was a board for video games not ecchi shit
Ryan Anderson
Just play champs that don't need Flash. Simple.
Julian King
Flash is must now in league I hate it too. too many new champions have dashes or blink, if play champion with no dash, blink, or flash vs one with them your just dead.
Carter Harris
I dont think that would work in current league, theres so much champions that literally require flash to survive getting oneshot without counterplay. I dont like flash either, but i look at it that way: sincec allmost everyone is forced to take it it adds some kind of resourcemanagement skill
Jack Reyes
What about Heroes of Newarth?
Andrew Wilson
this is what makes LoL leagues above DOTA in terms of mechanical skills.
You made this thread yesterday you just slightly changed the wording and image seek professional help you're mentally ill.
Hudson Carter
I've put an unhealthy amount of time in both games and team fights were always way more difficult to keep track of in League. The game rewards more twitchy gameplay due to shorter cooldowns and when each player is firing off a handful of spells at a time it can be hard to keep track of what's going on. It might also be personal bias but I think the audio cues in Dota are better, when someone fires off a big ult you KNOW it's happening because they're loud and hard to ignore.
Daniel Long
It's just ve being contrarian as always.
Levi Sanchez
HoN was superior to both and a crime it was managed by complete twats and retards
It was so strange to have the two opposite of the world in a single game. A shit developer and people would make a horrible game but was the exact other way around. Still Maliken spent all in whores.
LoL has no strategy, no stages and no counterplay whatsoever. If you missed one creep and got poked 1-2 times - you have lost the lane and have lost the game: you might as well surrender@20. Dota is far superior in that regard, but they have made it streamlined for new players. And ranked match making is now completely fucked: even if you 5-man, you should stay away from the game, unless you are tournament-level people.
Aaron Parker
They make a game more spectacular and more pleasant for the viewer.
Ryan Brooks
LoL is incredibly shallow compared to DoTa. You have to learn a lot of mechanics, but all of their mechanics are extremely simple. Runes and masteries are the most complex decision you make, and you can just copy those 1 to 1 off a guide and get the best results.
Also, how is lack of creep deny more complex? I'm not sure you know what that word means.
Ethan Ward
havent i seen this thread before. is this not a pasta.
Daniel Rivera
League's a solved game due to role locks, the only thing that changes is what the flavor of the month champions/items are due to their constant balance updates. Anytime someone finds something that breaks that mold it gets nerfed to uselessness like Karthus/Nunu or Double Targon
Grayson Hernandez
Yeah I'm sure 2 deaths a minute stays spectacular at all point and totally doesn't diminish the value of each kill more and more. Spoken like someone who legitimately has never played LoL.
Joshua Fisher
>LoL is incredibly shallow compared to DoTa. You have to learn a lot of mechanics, but all of their mechanics are extremely simple imagine being this much of brainlet. Please tell me you're fishing for (you)s
Joseph Walker
why do asians always look like they choreograph everything? like none of this seems like it came from genuine within, looks like she seen too many nigger videos on youtube and copy it.
Nicholas Ortiz
Wave manipulation is much more interesting when you cant just last hit your opponents creeps
Kevin Peterson
If you really treasure your virginity and want to take it to your grave, dota is the way to go.
Grayson Barnes
Dota has more wave manipulation than LoL. LoL is more shallow, get over it nerd.
Angel Price
It's more interesting because up until the end of the game it's still possible to win. In LoL the smallest advantage is insurmountable to overcome. You can't base a strategy on the enemy fucking up.
Gabriel Mitchell
but they gutted ghost (again)
Sebastian Taylor
Wave manipulation is much more interesting when the tier 1's are more than two inches apart.
Benjamin Brooks
Why? Another 'unorthodox strategy is viable, better destroy it so everyone has to take flash' nerf?
Jaxon Roberts
Oh yeah, what has your personal journey down the cascade of emergent complexity been like?
Ian Nelson
False, there's always been plenty of comebacks on every level of play. And. The fact hasn't changed that provided they're not gigaslowed someone who ghosted will always outrun/catch someone who flashed. There are also plenty of champions who just prefer combat summoners over flash.
Lincoln Nelson
Valve might be the absolute worst developers ever when it comes to supporting the game , month after month goes by were they barely give Dota and attention before the eventual Compenduim comes out every year and they realize "oh shit we can get money"
I got 5.3k in Dota when it meant something and moved to League because its just more fun.
You're practically lying about how ubiquitous flash is at this point. Post your match history and let's see how many of the 45 players plus (you) went without flash in your last five games.
Michael Parker
why do you repost thus shit thread every day?
Brody Brooks
>comebacks Post your last 10 games and let's see how many comebacks there were.
Jason Gomez
lying on the internet isn't good for you dumb frogposter
David Sullivan
Do they not in league?...
I mean I know you don't lose money when you die but still
Jayden Stewart
You can;t have 2 hour games in league as often though so dota is where its at for me.
>can't push safely because the other team has a techies and I'm some squish backliner >can't depend on team to work toward objectives unless I'm actively pushing
Do you like hurting other people?
Sebastian Campbell
Nobody said anything about flash not being integral in most cases but it's disingenuous to say all champions must take flash or they can't function in a match. Hecarim, one of the best junglers right now goes ignite/smite in the vast majority of games. >doesn't understand the concept of picks, shutdown gold, catch up experience, etc It's because they matter so much that players lean towards playing safe. It's not just about the gold. You're missing out on experience, you're losing turret hp. The enemy is setting up a freeze in front of their turret which is going to make you very susceptible to ganks if you don't have the waveclear to break it. The enemy could just shove the lane and recall, and walk all the way back to lane without missing almost any gold xp. The enemy could be taking turret plating which can give you a total of 800 extra gold on top of the turret kill bonus. And that's just laning. It's worse in late game where team fights are deciding the game. This is even more important for the winning side. One of them could be worth upwards of 1000 gold. That could certainly even out or turn the current game state. It could lead to an uncontestable drake/baron.
Joseph Sullivan
Notice how it says 7 - 0 and not 7-5? Kills in Dota matter but pros often trade because they're GOOD and don't get stomped. LoL is for shitty retards that get stomped all day and are afraid of getting stomped because there's no counterplay to losing.
>Calling Valve lazy with supporting Dota when it took Riot almost ten years to get a functioning damage recap in League and still has a barely functioning client I knew frogposters were dumb but goddamn.
Jace Sanchez
>implying kills at a professional level are just stomps and not planned pick-offs. Nobody's stupid enough to feed on such a scale a professional level. You can't just run up and ungabunga the same guy to death repeatedly because he won't be stupid enough to fall for the same thing repeatedly. Trading isn't worth it when you could get off without any major losses.
Jaxon Watson
>autochess becomes popular >valve wants to hire the guy but he turns them down for china mobile >league just copies the idea and makes their own version
Matthew Powell
My number one problem with dota 2 is the UI definitely. It's the most overdesigned clunky unintuitive piece of shit I've ever seen. It doesn't help that the art style just so happens to be utter dog shit as well. It's extremely polluted and ugly.
William Green
Imagine being this wrong. Bet you can't even point out anything wrong besides spouting off buzzwords.
Austin Carter
>LoL is for shitty retards that get stomped all day and are afraid of getting stomped because there's no counterplay to losing. There is counterplay in lol, most retards just dont get it since they are to focused on "META" and lack any sense of flexibility and actual game experience
Leo Johnson
I always got the impression a lot of the people at Riot care, but are just grossly incompetent. Like my image of the Riot dev team is them desperately flinging buckets of bilge water over their shoulders trying to save the ship, but they haven't noticed they're just throwing it behind them and it's not going anywhere. I'm sure there are (or at least were while LoL's numbers were still increasing) complacently indolent shits there, but I'm convinced it's mostly earnest retardation.
Parker Wilson
And everyone else copied the idea from some WC3 mod again, who cares. Valve is fucking garbage and doesn't do anything worthwhile, I'm really getting you sick of you valve fanboys shitting on all opposition as if they're doing anything. I've never seen a company just ignore and shit on fans so fucking much and you are still around. Valve fanboys are the biggest cucks in gaming by far.
Thomas Cooper
I already did point things out. The fact that you're a dota fanboy getting utterly buttblasted that someone is criticizing this ugly piece of shit nobody cares about is entirely irrelevant.
LoL looks extremely clean and straight to the point compared to dota, which has an overabundance of information and that ugly DUDE HUGE PAULDRONS, HANDS AND FEET LMAO artstyle that is bottom of the barrel tier trash. Just compare the champ select screen of dota and Lol for example. It's a joke how utterly cluttered dota 2's champ select screen looks.
Stay mad tho.
Connor Morales
you literally didn't point out anything you're not even posting any screens lmaooo
Brandon Morgan
COPE
Matthew Sanders
I'm not a valve fan for rightly pointing out LoL is inferior to DoTa, and Valve has been complete shit for the last decade, but I wouldn't be saying that while trying to defend Riot of all fucking companies.
Jack Evans
>DUDE HUGE PAULDRONS, HANDS AND FEET LMAO artstyle literally described LoL
Is that a skin, or did Taric finally get slammed with the 'ol Ritosign?
Tyler James
I'm willing to believe that considering how many game breaking bugs were in the last patch, but it also feels like Riot doesn't give enough of a shit to fix things because their crew of fanboys will defend them regardless of how high the spaghetti code piles up.
Julian Turner
fuck off steamdrone
Samuel Morris
The latter. However the fact that you even recognized him despite the overhaul speaks for itself.
You can't use this shitty bait image that was never even accurate forever you know.
Kayden Nguyen

William Jenkins
>vastly different between Taric and the zoom in on old Irelia on a site infamous for how badly it compressed textures. >this somehow refutes my point ?
Aiden Young
>someone who ghosted will always outrun/catch someone who flashed imagine believing this
sure thing bro, I'm sure a ghosted udyr will catch that ekko, leblanc or talon who flashed through a wall lmao
Josiah Rodriguez
LoL's engine clearly doesn't support as many texture maps as Dota, nor as high resolution - not that Dota doesn't have some fugly texture.
Aiden Adams
Depends on the wall for Ekko. Leblanc is literally designed to be ridiculously slippery. As was reworked Talon to an extent.
Jaxon Morris
LoL is so much much worse.
William Gomez
based and soulpilled
Thomas Cruz
Fuck off with your shitposts you falseflagging waste of oxygen.
Honestly the game isn't worth it I might be a haha nooby gold omg yes look look he LOW ELO haha!!!!! But I played the game since 2016, finally gave ranked a shot in 2018 and boy did that game turn to...poop, lightly put! A lot of things are weirdly balanced or unbalanced at all, assassins outdamage/outskill a lot of champions, people playing this game (at least in eune) are people so toxic, cocky, snobby and with no upbringing whatsoever, you might not see it yet because you're under lvl30 but when you reach somewhere around 60-100 then you'll see what I mean. People taunt more than actually play, spamming their flashy emotes, taunts, bming hard as fuck, going "haha ez gg noobs ez tutorial ez dog sit :) ez ez ez ez ez" and shittalking in general, what brings me down. But even if we put the astonishingly bad community aside, the game itself sucks anyway. This season is very terrible, few champions had been nerfed to the ground while some have been so buffed that just thinking about them makes people cringe. And there's no counterplay or anything too, you're constantly 2v1, die two times (or just once depending on the champion) and you lost the lane, if not the game when the enemy snowballs properly. I didn't try dota for more than 2 hours but I'd say it's more fun.
William Williams
Why are dotards responding to loltard? I thought they were suppose to be the smart ones.
Xavier Roberts
LoL just has ability power so all abilities scale instead
