There are also factors such as the ban/pick phase difference and the more rigid positions in LoL that may limit the viability for different playstyles and hero picks (typically it is 2 (AD, Support Bot) -1 (AP mid) -1 (Tank Off) - 1 (Jungler), with a possibility of double junglers in LoL). To compare between Dota 2 and LoL pick diversity, LoL has 64 out of 131 champions picked for LCS. Number of Heroes Picked in Dota 2's Recent Major Tournament in the past 4 months (as of July 2016) is 86/111 heroes picked and 100 out of 111 heroes picked. It's very well-balanced Gameplay is balanced in the sense that while other MOBAs would have only around 30-60 viable picks for the competitive scene, Dota 2 has heroes and strategies in the game that are more varied, which enables more heroes to be picked in the competitive scene. You might even visit reddit of Heroes of The Storm more than 50% of topics are about terrible Match Making and not enought playerbase. I am sorry for all HOTS fans and Blizzard but I will never more play HOTS. Imaigne how hard is it to get promotion to next league if you don't practice 7h per day and play with 5 man as I used to do. Second I was working in Boosting company for a year, even for me as ex-pro it was very hard to get out of plat to diamond. You might check the Twitter of Fnatic.Mene or Expert.Adrd they are top European players both of them writes on twitter at least once in month that HOTS match making is terrible and they can't see any point to play hero league. As high Tier player I was struggeling to get above 55% win ratio Hero League, Match Making is working in terrible way since years, everysingle year Blizzard promise to fix that, but nothing happens. I have to admin that HOTS is so far the worst E-sport game I used to play. Gaea Gosu's Experience I was top GM European server and attended to few offline events. Sylvanas who can take towers, forts and keeps all alone. Abathur, a hero that doesn't even enter, and doesen't need to enter the battle even once and can do everything it needs from spawn area. ChoGal, a hero that needs two human players to control. Not to mention all this despite the rule breaking heroes. Blizzard is THE company when it comes to understanding competitive games. Problem is that people being so used to typical mobas come into this with the mindset of typical mobas and expect same mechanics and when they don't find it, they scream casual, not realising that other stuff has been added to make it deep and more strategic in a different way. Easy concept to get but difficult to master. Now, thanks to this, you need to have much more map awareness than any other moba as ganks and team attacks and such can happen any time anywhere. For example, last hitting is removed and experience is shared across all teammates. HOTS is simple where other mobas are unnecessarily complicated while it is complicated where other mobas are unnecessarily simple. There's a difference between a game being accessible and a game being casual. All of which are Macroplay strategies Vainglory doesn’t sacrifice just because of being mobile.Arkham Ninja's Experience simple to understand yet hard to master. That’s why I was easily able to get the hang of LoL with my VG knowledge since I already knew what wards and last-hitting were in addition to splitpushing, leashing, lane management, counter-building, counter-drafting (comfort picks, denying meta picks, etc.) and counter-jungling. In short, Vainglory wants to be different instead of just being a LoL clone, but it also doesn’t “dumb down” the MOBA formula just because it’s on mobile. Vainglory also has a river mechanic that makes it different from other MOBAs (even PC ones). VG also conforms with “last hitting” where you don’t get any gold without being the one who kills the minions. It’s has much more depth than other mobile MOBAs, for one, it (and Heroes Evolved) are the only mobile MOBAs with a vision and warding system. So here goes: Vainglory in my opinion is very distinct from its competitors in the mobile platform. Qwerty's Experience Wow this is new! There was no “my experience” when I first recommended here.
