also Sacraboar was pretty good and Super Monday Night Combat could have been good if the creeps didnt die so fast

Literally impossible for SMNC to ever be good.

i enjoyed super monday night combat a lot and wish it had stuck around longer and gotten improved as a whole instead of the developer focusing on queue splitting and monetization

i also enjoy heroes of the storm since it is focused on fighting other players and short cooldowns and less technical stuff like last hitting or denying. but most importantly. xp is shared across your whole team. games where you are competing against your teammates and also the other team are not fun to me. competitive pve or competitive pvp but not both thanks

MNC was good and SMNC was hot garbage. HOTS sucks too. Christ you're all dumb.

Smite woulda been cool if it didn't have a lovely jungle and ridiclous LoL skins like ghetto baby god.

Also LoL remade the best hero into stupid grimdark poo poo.

Also Dota has taken like five years to port already made heroes.

On the other hand, dota still doesn't have all the heroes after twenty years out of beta...

One thing I 'like' about Dota 2 is it's still got a load of weird quirks in the client and a general lack of QA, like there's no standardization for how things are explained in tooltips for example. Or the 'accept match' button sometimes doesn't work and needs a few clicks. Even though unlike the Warcraft 3 mod the client is specifically built for Dota there are a ton of these seams showing where it seems like valve don't really give a poo poo about the whole thing feeling super polished. In that sense it keeps the 'my friend's eccentric dad made this in the garage' spirit of the original Warcraft 3 mod very much alive

Sadly LoL captures that vibe a lot better...a strike against dota.

The term "MOBA" was invented by a pedophile. I'm unsure if he too liked Star Trek but make with that what you will.

The more polished one is the one that uses the same middle mouse dragging as your internet browser.

I dont even know which one this is since you're supposed to use edge panning...
