[quote=@Antarctic Termite]My friend brought it up and we still haven't dug our way out of the trap of bickering over whether LoL or Dota is better. .-.[/quote]

Dota is to League what cricket is to golf. Completely indecipherable gibberish, filled to the brim with unintuitive concepts, and yet... once you get it, once you understand what's going on, it inspires manic devotion and addiction the likes of which this world has never seen before. 

It just depends on what you want. Do you want a game that makes sense, or one of the most complicated and unforgiving games ever made?
