That's the thing. I HATE DOTA 2. I think the game sucks, but I'm willing to do more with my life than go on every single comic and say "This game sucks".
Also, Dealwithits stupid comment came immediately after mine. It's like I knew when he was gonna say something.

Actually, as an aspiring pro player I have to say it's almost 100% of the time the Western players that adapt to the newer metas and changes. Chinese and Asian players are almost 100% of the time the ones with the best mechanical knowledge in the game though.

[url=#user_comment_337277]@Waka[/url]: I had to come.
You are right. Players (Especially western) hate to change their gameplay. but it is possible to do it in LoL, even thought there aren't much UNIQUE Champions. Right now in WCG LOL Korea, i saw a early Dragon("Ancients") in lvl 3
laning style(return of dual lanes in competitive perhaps, dual jungles even).
tell me, how many times has the meta in lol changed? tell me how its still not 2-1-1 with 1 jungler and how you arent flamed for playing differently?
@alex
a champion/hero perhaps, but what about multiple heroes as well as the games mechanics that result in changing of meta? this current one will nerf trilanes a lot causing people to have to either to work harder on their trilanes(instead of just derp bring 3 random heroes) or have to use a new
[url=#user_comment_337256]@Waka[/url]: Umm, That isn't really Unique to Dota sorry to say. Their is weekly patches in LoL to do the exact same thing. Some of the patches have even reworked entirely how a champion plays. So um... sorry to burst your bubble there.

Uuugh! I kinda knew this but I refused to accept it: even sexy gamer-girls like Engie-tan becomes zombified after too much playing. The first panel is proof enough, indeed.

Let us take a moment to relish in the destruction of Spirit Breaker.
Let us also laugh at how Sniper will be forever terrible.

[url=#user_comment_337256]@Waka[/url]: That applies to any system people get used to, not even just to game systems. People resist change unless it is unequivocally better.
This reminds me of the days when I would grind my ass off in League of Legends and FINALLY get to the level cap only to have everything in the game reset.
long time would more or less expect changes that may or may not be to your liking.
then once we have another patch half a year later, people would cry about the new changes while saying the current one(which means this new one) was fine/balanced.
and this is what helps make dota different and unique really, things will never remain the same. with the new patch, some heroes will rise(BS, riki) while others will fall(SB, huskar).
I guess if your relatively new it will be quite annoying and troublesome, for people who have been with it for a
[url=#user_comment_337243]@Technature[/url]: Also, fans of the game think they can argue with someone who's username is dealwithit and posts the same thing on every Comic about Dota, even the ones that don't make sense :P
[url=#user_comment_337243]@Technature[/url]: Because according the comic all your knowledge of the game means nothing when the new patch comes out. There's no need for any part of the game to be shown, that's a pretty big flaw on it's own (even though it's a gross exaggeration).
Spirit breaker got nerfed. :(
Huskar got a huge nerf, which is good because I often get pwned by him.
Interestingly, Riki (already OP) got buffed. I should start playing more Riki. lol
"Did you FINISH not FINISHED". "Finished" is past tense and "did" is also past tense and you cannot have both verbs like that in an interrogative clause. L2ENGLISH

It is kind of daunting, but once you get used to the major hero changes along with the "every game" type of general changes it doesn't take long like always.

HaHA! I'm finally in an advantage. Knowledgable enough to know some shit but not knowledgable enough to know specifics, I'm at the perfect point to learn my way to the top!
