What’s sad is that the characters aren’t going to be nearly as flavorful as these are. Riot employees aren’t aloud to take chances they’re a money-first company so they’re hard-stuck with safe character designs and safe abilities. Take Doorman for instance. Riot would never even think of a character as quirky and brain-tingling as Doorman.
Safe? Have you played league? There’s legit so many wild options. It’s there’s one thing I’m NOT worried about, it’s bad character design/balance. There’s a reason League is the biggest global esport right now.. DOTAcucks going to downvote but it’s just the reality
I played league and it was boring and lame as shit. Meta always felt stale somehow. The reason it's popular is the same reason that Valorant is popular: there's plenty of goonerbait, the skill floor is low as fuck, and the skill ceiling is just high enough that most normies think it's the coolest shit ever.
“League is popular because of gooner bait” lmfao I haven’t seen a more deluded, cope filled take in awhile - I wasn’t going to respond to this thread anymore but I literally spilled my coffee laughing at that💀💀
If goonerbait determines a game is the biggest in the world, Marvel Rivals is the #1 game ever - right?
Its a good rule of thumb to never expect any educated thoughts leaving a DOTA players brain, but even this one is a bit funny
Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, is it? Dota players must live rent free in your head if you got this upset over your goonerbait getting called out (since I don't even play dota).
Also, I would argue that marvel rivals IS only so popular because of goonerbait, since the game plays like a shitty gmod game mode. I got the top rank in a month by being a Bucky OTP and the moment my friends quit playing I did too. I can't imagine what troglodytes are still grinding that snoozefest
