Re: How are late game carries uncounterable with the amount of counters by fabio 10/10/2012, 1:19pm PDT
LoL has the level cap at 18, so you can sometimes turtle and usually in under 10 minutes catch up. DotA/HoN caps at 25 so you're never going to catch up.

Item counters don't matter for much if you can't buy them. There's a bunch of factors that further snowball the game: loss of gold on death, expensive ingredient items topping 3000 gold (1650 max in LoL) that you have to save up at once. Even loading up on stuff like barbed armor or that whatsit ethereal amulet can't save you from a farmed Bounty Hunter, Specter, or whoever the DotA equivalent of Dark Queen is.

What's lacking about it? And how is DotA 2's superior? You can browse by any stat category you want. LoL's items are mostly about the stats with special effects tacked on so that's everything you need to know right there. DotA 2 is the opposite and difficult to sort through unless you've memorized the entire thing.

                    Actually it's that the fun of denial fails to exceed the 'Anti-Fun'! by Worm 11/13/2012, 11:32pm PST NEW
                        Denying isn't fun for either player though by fabio 11/14/2012, 1:21pm PST NEW
