Speaking of the story between DOTA2 and LOL, there must be countless "love-hate love", the earliest lol was still living in the shadows, during which because of poor performance, it was once ridiculed by DOTA2 to "take in LOL heartbreak players". But with the continuous improvement of the performance of the domestic LOL league, DOTA2 side has been exported by various riding faces, especially last year, both sides held large-scale events in Europe, and in comparison, DOTA2 can almost be defeated.
But no matter what the outside world is, dota2 players have always maintained a sense of superiority, that is, the competitiveness of the game itself. From the player's point of view, dota2's operational difficulty in the mechanism is indeed above LOL, and TI events have always pressed the LOL global finals in terms of prize money, and these 2 items have also become the last pride of DOTA2 players and fans.
But the truth is very cruel, except for these 2 items, DOTA2 is a lol hanging existence at all other levels. When the two competitions were held in Europe last year, many Dota2 players watched the LOL competition, and now this situation has become more and more "serious", and even dota2 events have begun to appear "LOL" situation.
Recently, in the Dota 2 DPC Pro League, RNG clubs lost to LBZS clubs by a score of 1:2. After the game, RNG summarized on social accounts, described more than 1,000 words before and after to explain the game situation, and finally left a sentence "We are powerless to resist being pushed off the crystal by the other side, and regret to lose."
As soon as the dota 2 players blew up, because the word "crystal" is the word of the LOL event, and the dota 2 event is basically called "base".
Although RNG discovered this situation and then urgently re-edited the word, the matter was still screenshotted by many DOTA2 players.
There was no way, the RNG side could only apologize to dota2 players, saying that they had "crossed the stage".
For the "proud" players who are still sticking to DOTA2, this is absolutely intolerable, and the players who just left a message under the RNG social account and opened fire, saying that they were "insulted" and were angry. Some players directly pessimistically left a message that "the dota is dead", and the liveliness made people think that it was the LOL branch of RNG instead of the DOTA2 division.
Anyway, it's true that dota 2 events aren't as good as LOL now, and I just don't know how long the core players will be able to hold out.
