My brother, Joey. The one I mentioned two posts ago.
The DOTA diaspora is pretty strange but I guess that can be attributed to the nature of the game's evolution. Anyway, it's hard to get excited about this when it is intentionally being made to stick as closely to the mod as possible. I also hear the community is quite repellant and unfriendly to newcomers so I wonder just what will really allow this fledgling genre to grow. Eventually it will suffocate from lack of oxygen.
LoL actually does a good job of simplifying it and the community is the best of all the DotA type games.
That said there's still a good number of horrible people playing it as well, but nowhere near as bad as DotA or HoN.
I play LoL a little, amumu when I do. It's apparently a little less hardcore than dota because you can't deny creep kills, but fuck that.
I'm fluxrad21 on there. Hit me up if you got the balls. I play a decent amount of the weekends.Quote:

I played it a bit way back in the day, maybe I will hop on someday and play with you bbobb when I am stuck in maryland or something (thanksgiving perhaps?). I think my name was ziggy stardust, but I will just find you if i do play.
Can someone explain to me how they have a tournament going on for this game when the beta hasn't even hit yet? What the fuck am I missing?
This was the way Valve chose to show the game off to the world. They are targeting it to the hardcore players, and it's a direct port of the the Warcraft III mod. If you know the mod you know this game.
I'm still kind of confused that Valve threw all their weight behind a mod port.
