With its ever-expanding structure, which is on the computer of almost every game League of Legends, DOTA in the world of Warcraft 3 and Heroes of Newerth The dethroned League of Legends actually has a very ingenious and well-planned structure for the players. Let’s get into our “How did it become so popular” section together.

Let’s start with the emergence of MOBA as a game category:

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) actually the last 6.7 years a concept. Formerly Tower Defense. TD We were pretty good at playing the games. The basis of DOTA comes from the TD game logic in the additional maps of Warcraft 3.

The first to try to be a game on its own after Dota MOBA game Riot Games League of Legends had happened. However, things were not going well for LOL in 2009. DOTANext to , there was a game structure that was described as quite strange. Heroes of Newerth was one step ahead in this regard, as both paid and DOTAIt looked more like. Warcraft 3Players who moved from ‘to HoN’ were expecting it to contain less toxic players as “the game will be paid”. But it cannot be said to be so. of Heroes of Newerth The biggest problem was that the players could not be controlled and all the money was wasted when a player was banned.

It was liked because it was a faster, easier and more colorful game than its rivals:

As you know, DOTA was a much darker and more difficult game world. At this point of Riot Games made “What do players who can’t play DOTA want??” The question really made the game grow. DOTA really needed a lot of hard work in combining hand combinations and champion abilities. However, you needed additional programs to use the active items in your bag.

Riot Games, League of Legends While designing, he will have done serious work on user experience; “MOBA is for everyoneThey acted with a motto such as ”. To your own minions Deny you can’t, you can’t block the minions, you meet your opponents in the corridors, kill more minions than them, and try to win the game with a nice build. If you open the gap with your opponent at the beginning of the game and win the corridor, you can finish the game in an average of 25 minutes. Average at this point 40/60 minutes It has a faster system than DOTA, which has between-playing times.

While IceFrog lay on Blizzard’s gates, League of Legends prospered from skin sales:

i’m weird IceFrog to Blizzard DOTAWhile trying to sell ‘, Riot Games started selling champion skins to a growing player base. DOTA, which started to lose its own player base, is constantly being developed in many ways. of League of Legends started to lag behind.
