    The hero pool is impressive but the new player experience hasn't improved much over the years.

    The depth really comes from itemization, itemization alone separates good players from great ones here, ask anyone who's climbed.

  2. NeonWarden66

    Spent an entire winter learning support role, my friends still clown me for how bad I was at warding.

  3. GhostWolf

    Another day, another overrated MOBA sitting comfortably where it shouldn't be.

    Kihn76

    Exact same experience, quit after one toxic lobby and haven't touched it since.

  4. BossDragon2

    I only play a few games a month these days (work eats everything) but even casually you can feel how unforgiving it stays.

    Compared to League it feels heavier and slower to learn, but the mechanical ceiling is so much higher once you push through the first fifty hours or so.

    I only get an hour here and there most weeks, still remember that first proper win vividly.

    Je le trouve surcoté à cette place franchement, la comunauté toxique gâche vraiment l'expérience et ça devrait compter dans le classement.

    Every duel this thing wins just confirms it, the vote count doesn't lie and neither does the ELO climbing steadily.

    Toxicity or not, it still wins way more duels than League usually does here.

    ¿No creés que parte de esa toxicidad viene también de lo competitivo que es el juego en sí?

    On refait ce débat sur la place de Dota tous les mois, franchement je vote et je m'en vais, la profondeur est réelle mais l'accessibilité reste un problème sérieux.

  8. TurboByte47

    Aucun autre MOBA n'a cette profondeur stratégique, point final.

  9. LootRex2

    Lo dejé por LoL hace un par de años y volví hace poco, la curva de entrada sigue siendo brutal, ¿a nadie más le pasó esto?

    The support grind you're describing sounds exactly like my last few seasons too.

    Eloisa_40

    Warding trauma, same, same.

    Corwin18

    Same grind here honestly, my duo and I still queue every weekend just to relive those early disasters together.

    Same story here, uninstalled after getting flamed in my first ranked match, never looked back honestly.
