MS: "Although the game is still in the very early stages of production, it’s clear that Dota 2 is going to cause a fanboy war similar to what we’re currently seeing with Modern Warfare 3 and Battlefield 3. With the original DotA, League of Legends, and Heroes of Newerth already battling it out amongst fans as to which is the superior game, Dota 2‘s wild marketing stunts by Valve in an effort to bring the Dota genre into the public eye are sure to only heat up the war."
Check out the live stream and gameplay footage of the $1 million Dota 2 International tournament after the jump.
From beefy tanks to powerful carries, these are the best Strength heroes in Dota 2's Turbo Mode.
Valve has spoken out forcefully against smurfing in Dota 2 after banning more than 90,000 accounts - and targeting their owners.
Pardon my ignorance for never having played this, but why even have the ability to create multiple guest accounts? It seems if there is only one account per player then it would eliminate this smurfing issue.
Probably to get new players hooked on the addictive gameplay loop, more people playing = statistically more people buying battle passes.
Why would seasoned players want to play with lower skill players anyway? Just to owned them? They’re n00bs, what’s the fun in that?
It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.
This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
Following the Dota 2 update that increased the size of the map by 40%, I asked League of Legends EP Jeremy Lee if we can expect similar things for LoL.

More like LOL2 than DOTA2
