✉ I would like to share my opinion why I think dota is a bad game, despite the emotions that it gave me, despite everything that I wrote below, I love this game and really consider it one of the best among competitive:)
►Let's start with the fact that the game is too team and it is simply impossible to win it alone and uncoordinated work brings players to the limit, leading to negative behavior and attitude towards others and because of this, toxicity prevails in dota.
►After 7 years of playing dota, I realized that many players do not aspire to up MMR and achieve something in the game.I used to hear from many that dota was compared to chess and I did not understand how such a highly intelligent game compared to dota and only in 2020 I realized that I did not use 30% of my thinking to play dota, in many ways this distinguishes dota from other games like CS.
►Balance is a word that Valve has been "trying" to recreate in their game for years, but the same thing happens with every patch, the meta in dota changes over and over again, and some characters become too strong and some too weak, but there are also heroes who have superiority in the game. game. The game has been around for many years, and some still hold the upper hand in MM - Tinker, Lycan, Meepo, Broodmother.
► Bugs are a separate problem of dota, disabling hill on the base, Roshan stack, counting rampages in the lobby of the game (many have made themselves more than 20,000+ rampages) and other bugs
►Boosters, smurfs, cheaters - boosters play dota and earn money with impunity using heroes without balance,smurfs create new accounts and get a high rating and sell accounts,cheaters can play for 2-3 days before being banned, this works both on a new account and on a hacked account sold on the cheap with a higher rating (I often saw cheaters on 4-5 K mmr)
► The next topic is the 50% win rate system, often many players have 50-52% WR, so after 5 wins there are 4-6 defeats, this has already been proven by many people, why play if after a winstreak you will throw 4 idiots into the team and your defeat was pre-planned by the game?
►The next topic will be esports, I think each of the dota games has thought about huge prize money, fame, cups, emotions.But I hasten to upset them, not to mention the complex meta and hardcore team game, which also changes every patch in dota, huge competition and big salaries are received by only 30 teams (150 people for the whole world)if that's about it.Not many people who have reached the numbers 9+ thousand MMR have achieved absolutely nothing
