And at the end of the day....it's just an ok game.
Have you tried it? Genuine question, since we're free to talk about it I'd love to hear why you think it's mediocre, so far all the talk is always hype so I'm eager for some less positive takes.
Is Dota 2 with some shooter mechanics. If you like Dota 2 you probably like it, if you prefer a moba like LoL maybe you'll not like it.
I played a couple of matches and to me the match go for too long.
Wait, why would a league player not like it?
They would don't listen to this person
LOL, ok...
Have you played it? I have. I like LoL, I like deadlock.
Yes
And I said:
If you like dota2 and LoL ok, if you like dota2 ok, if you like LoL and don't like dota2(like most league players) I find really difficult to like deadlock.
I played league since s2 and a played some Dota2(+80hrish), the things that I don't like in dota2 is present on deadlock, for example, like I said before, the length of the matches is too long for me.
You must be in low elo, high tier matches are 25-35 min long, I haven't played a match over 37minute in weeks.
Lower elo players have been complaining about long games because a lot of new moba players aren't playing objectives
I was low elo in dota2 and above average in league(diamond).
The data of the average match length in league is 30min in low elo and 25 in high elo, the dota2 high tier matches with 35min IS TOO LONG. In dota2 I played a lot of matches with +40min, without counting the time paused(I can't even remember if the paused time is counted in the match time).
Besides in league we can forfeit a match and a lot of fuckup matches end with 20min, in dota2 this doesn't happen.
Bro you must have attention span brain rot idk what to tell you you're talking about a few minutes difference in time lmao
Try fortnite the matches are 25 min and they have pop song emotes, might be more your speed.
Don't be naive.
The 5min-10min of length in average is a deal breaker for a lot of players. Most of people that I played league with give up on Dota 2 for this reason alone.
And that time is the average, if you people go play dota 2 and has 5 bad matches in a row with 40min without any means to leave that shit is the entire night thrown out.
Not only that for casual league matches is already too long, compare that with Overwatch that the average is below 20min.
Because is played more like dota 2 than league and so far as I know league players don't like much how dota 2 is played.
