I've grown a liking to Windrunner. I'm not that good though.
My only major issue with the game so far is that the camera view is awful. It's not zoomed out enough. I have a lot of issues with vertical combat/running/whatever. I've died quite a few times because I'm trying to keep track of both where the people chasing me are/what they are doing, and where I'm actually going. This isn't so bad in horizontal situations, but if I'm moving vertically it sucks, I can't see anything.
With Fog of War I don't really get the need to have the camera zoomed in so much.
Well, the view distance is the same as Starcraft/Warcraft, and imo it's pretty comfortable once you get used to it. Try making greater use of the minimap; you can keep track of where others are without having to scroll over to look at them. Also, I don't do much scrolling except in the direction I'm moving or aiming an ability. I just click on the minimap to jump to a specific location. You can also double tap your hero selection button (F1 by default) to jump back to your hero. This is pretty useful when you want to glance at what's happening somewhere else real quick, then jump back to controlling your hero.
