But that's my opinion, i don't play LoL anymore so meh.
That's why DotA is all about skill, everyone has access to everything and nothing but how you play decides what happens.
I find LoL to be a perfectly fine game, i have nothing against it btw. I just dislike the "Buy heroes" and rune part massively
I understand/respect that, LoL is certainly far from perfectly balanced. I don't really have a huge issue with the buying of champions only because it's why the game is free, I don't think Riot makes enough off the rest of their micro-transactions (skins, rune pages, etc) to float the game. DotA2 is made to be a much more "serious" competitive game, and it's the reason why I'd love to try it, but expect to suck/not really be too into it.
On a related note, last I checked DotA2 didn't have an announced price or anything, has any information come down about that yet? A lot of rumors were that it would be f2p, but I'm not really sure where they would be able to grab money from players that way. You know, without resorting to hats. I'm more expecting a cheap flat price, with free weekends scattered about.
