Dota2

Anybody else playing this gem? I've been playing it since the Beta about 2 years ago.. Got over 1000 hours into this game, and LOVE it.

And just to debunk any LoL fanboys, Dota came first, then one of the people that helped make dota made League of Legends.

Link to the game

I played LoL for a while.

Got tired of one guy sinking the team every time. While i get invited to dota from friends all the time, im just not ready to be disappointed after a month of getting into it.

I play both, and they really do bring out the worst in me when my teammates suck.

I was playing Fiddlesticks last night (in my snazzy new pumpkinhead outfit) had a k/d ratio of around 19/7 and we still lose. Pissed me off so much.

I then go on to play Dota and I'm laned with a Jug who levels his crit strike first, then a point in healing ward.. then another point in healing ward, then another in crit strike. I was so angry that he doesn't get whirlwind right away (we could've killed the opposition easily had he leveled properly), I was just done. He was Russian and didn't understand anything.

Meh. but the games are fun when you get good players.

Yeah, since it's a team based game it happens.
Dota 2 is SIGNIFICANTLY harder than LoL.
It has a big learning curve, but honestly no other game offers that kind of play style. I have BF4, FFXIV, etc but I still come back to Dota.

I know the feeling.
Last night I went 12/1/20 with clockwork and my team threw the game.

I also Love DOTA II,

Do you know that Dota ( Original ) is a Game inside from the Game Warcraft III FT. where there was all kinds of Games inside: Tower map. Zombie map etc etc.

where in DOTA( I ) sniper is a dwarf and Axe is a Orc

i miss Dota I, but i really enjoy DOTA II, better Graphic and when you Lost your connecting, you can rejoin in dota II up to 5 min,

back in Dota I if you got out of the Game, That GAME WAS OVER DUDE; think about that ;D

Dota was around before FT I believe. It started out as a Starcraft custom map, and went from there.

I play....

Love Dota 2

Just wanted to bump this because now DOTA 2 is free to play!

Also... anyone interested in starting an ATS team?
