Would require me to actually put a large amount of time into the game, something I would never be willing to do for a game I find to be terrible.... I can usually get into the highest rank of any game I put time into, the one exception being SC (Maybe traditional fighting games too, haven't tried though). I'm simply not good enough to master such a complex game, and I've accepted that. I could memorize a couple cheesey builds and push my way into masters, but I'd know it's a bullshit rank that I don't deserve and what's the point of that?
I played a lot of DOTA back in the WC3 days and thought it was a lot of fun, but I usually would rather play something else as the slow place of MOBA games isn't something I enjoy all that much. LoL is a dumbed down version of DOTA2. Sure, both games have problems, but if you were capable of being truly objective, it wouldn't be hard for you to see all the issues it has in comparison to it's predecessor and the kiddy graphics and worst community in the history of bad communities makes it pointless to play when there's something better on the market. Saying you've played both and not being able to draw a conclusion means your opinion is purely being swayed by bias, as it's painfully obvious which is the more polished, skill-based and competitive game. The #1 argument I see made by fortnite players when challenged about their game being inferior to others already on the market, is the claim that PUBG is glitchy and unfinished. I'm just starting to think those people haven't actually played the game much... None of the glitches I've encountered have been game breaking, and with the exception of running into the occasional hacker, there's nothing about it that feels broken these days. As far as the camp heavy excuse goes, it's a BR game... They're all camp heavy to a certain degree, but it depends on how YOU play it. Spawn in to a more populated area if that's your excuse.
Throwing a fighting game into a discussion of two of the easiest genres in terms of overall skill cap is just laughable. I've played competitive smash. Smash may be one of the easier to master *fighting* games (a lot of hardcore fighter players hate it being even mentioned in the same genre), but it's still an insanely hard game to be good at, and no fighting game is easy. If you go online for ANY fighting game and you're a below average or average gamer, you're going to be in for a rough time. Same goes for RTS games. OW, Fort, LoL are different. You can be a bad gamer and do moderately well, hence the mass appeal. That doesn't mean there's no challenge at the highest possible level of the game, and I never said that there wasn't. I said they were easy, because overall, they're are. DOTA even though less popular has slaughtered LoL in the competitive scene.... why do you think that is? You think all the professional gamers are just biased and so they choose to play the lesser of the two games out of spite for LoL? Or maybe, just maybe, they see what's so obvious to me and to so many others. Fortnite looks to be heading in the same direction, it's still early on, so who knows where it'll go, but so far the comp marketability for PUBG has been leagues ahead of Fort... once again, why do you suppose that is? Things are the way they are for a reason and popularity/numbers of active users does not mean a game is good. I get that you disagree with me and that nothing I say is going to change your mind, and while it is just my opinion, I feel I'll be validated before too long as we watch what unfolds with Pub & fort on esports. LoL v Dota is just a fact as far as I'm concerned.
As far as OW goes, I just hate the game. I only played for a few hours, every match was horribly easy and boring and I was disgusted by how simple and cutsey the game was, just couldn't stand it. That's me being biased. It is a somewhat original game and with the exception of TF2, there hasn't been too much like it to compare it against. It just seemed to me like a lazy cash grab by Blizzard to combine LoL and CoD to try and cater to as wide of an audience as possible. Again, I understand that this one is me being biased and that I'm basing my opinions off nothing but my opinions, but that doesn't detract from the validity of my statements regarding the other two titles.
The fact you just referred to it as "memorize a couple cheesey builds to push into Masters" let's me know you're utterly clueless.
