  • League has been and always will be bad. They don’t allow mods like in DotA 2, barely change the map, don’t make huge “WTF is going on???” patches, won’t mainline URF, don’t allow the game to change (if you’re playing a support hero, it may not be used as a carry otherwise it will be nerfed), the game is just in general stale af. Seasoned players and eSports watchers can call nearly all picks and bans ahead of time.

    The game is also grindy as hell. You don’t start out with access to all your champs and can’t just drop into a 10-20 minute match that doesn’t count and is a fun place to experiment. There aren’t tournaments for noobs and the lack of custom games also makes that less possible.

    The toxic community is only beaten by DotA’s community. The only thing going for league is that it makes money and has a dedicated team on it. Valve has maybe 5 staff working on DotA, does no marketing, no ads, no widespread press releases, … The only new players it got where simps for new heroes from their awful anime.
