iSurrender posted:A very convincing argument there. I didn't think it was worthwhile to spend more time on that comment than you spend coming up with the analogy. Because it wasn't a good analogy. At all. Edit: Getting free poo poo is nice, getting more free poo poo somewhat dependent on what you invested in the game is even nicer. Just look at the HotS 2.0 release. It's still MOBA #3, but that game got a significant shot in the arm with that update (even though their new unlockable system is a confusing freemium-style mess).

I mean, it doesn't matter anyways because you're getting a completely new rune system for free, but just in case you thought you owned your runes and skins and stuff, you actually don't No one is arguing that Riot should be sued for stealing your runes you disingenuous dipshit.

I'd give HotS the advantage based on a bigger Twitch presence and having a permanently visible spot within the Battle.net launcher (despite Smite having a superior business model from a consumer perspective). It's definitely between those two though. What would be the final game in the MOBA top 5 though? The first Dota? Mierenneuker fucked around with this message at 14:50 on Sep 3, 2017 |

It's definitely between those two though. Battleborn. Non-comedy answer, probably Lords Online. It seems to be building a playerbase as a reasonably robust mobile MOBA (MOBAle?)

anyway, i would like to posit that there is no point discussing this refund anymore since nobody from riot cares about this thread. we can determine that because if they did, they would have already renamed challenger to "the league of legends", and there would be a skin for rengar where rengar is a kitty cat and his bolas are just balls of yarn and instead of loud roars it is just meowing sounds. therefore all this discussion is doing is getting people into escalating flame wars over nothing at all

just came back to this dumb game after more than 3 years away, got placed in silver 2, which is fine because I was never more than low gold. I last played in season 4. Galio is pretty cool now. ADCs feel like garbage. I like how nobody is making GBS threads their pants when I play weird stuff like dual bruisers botlane or lucian top. People are a lot nicer than in CSGO. I forgot that. Why is Graves a Jungler? Is it because of the cigar?

Think its cos his basic auto attack hits multiple targets so he ends up shoving lane and getting ganked. You don't see him much these days tho

also he has wall dashes and does well with red smite and can knock back jungle creatures so he can kite forever and take no damage but yeah, he was changed like 3 years ago and was really strong in the jungle for a long time and he was in like every game for a few years and it was really annoying to play with and against

It's definitely between those two though. adventure time battle party, although gunter is OP as poo poo its sort of funny that hots is actually the best run esport in blizzard history, even though it seems like blizzard doesn't really care for it much. the hots professional scene is actually all right and the 2.0 patch was quite good, they're doing a great job with that game and it's easily the most rewarding moba to play casually. unfortunately the noob stomper characters in that game are insanely unfun to play against

Yeah I'm kinda sad HOTS is doing kinda stinky compared to Blizzard's lineup. It's as relaxing as a Moba can get. Though I guess people who generally dig mobas aren't into relaxing. Double edged sword? I don't know. Also their art team kinda feels like the B team if you know what I mean. Lucio looks kinda off and he moves a bit funny.

Lucio looks kinda off and he moves a bit funny. All the Overwatch characters look a bit off since they're all downgraded models with far less facial animation. It's a bit like going from a real human being to a Madame Tussaud wax statue. You recognize who it is, but there is just a whole lot missing from the real deal. As for HotS, I think it mainly appeals to people who could never get into LoL/Dota or played those games and got burned out on them. It's a more casual MOBA for a more casual audience. I'd make a comment about "people who don't want to read patch notes" but we all know those people exist for every game.

I think hots also has a nice combo of more interesting mechanics/kits than league, without having the mana pools/complexity of DotA. Just the 'whole team snowballing' thing gets old.

I feel like HotS kits generally aren't more interesting that the latest ones from League, but they're certainly weirder. Cho'Gall is more bizarre than any League kit even though none of the abilities are as unique as the uses you can give Taliyah's Weaver Wall. Really wish there was individual snowballing to HotS so specific kits could be more relevant.
