well u have to earn it or buy it

and yes it is still dumb since it gives several types of heroes too big of an advantage

imagine like a soulstealer with in-combat blink and a portal key

would never get ganked, and could initiate from massive ranged, and land easy razes with double blink -> triple raze

its just dumb


two different games, dont try to join them, there is no portal key in LoL

the way you look at it makes it seem dumb

IMO it's bad because it creates a level of forgiveness that is the polar opposite of HoN/LoL
in HoN you get your face shit on if you are even out of position by a few steps sometimes

in LoL the killer gains, not killers gains and victim loses
but at top level players are skilled enough to make judgements and have the free blink (you get it for free when you hit a certain account level) in case they make a bad judgement

so this just promotes farm all game and then play WoW arena cuz everybody is max farm

yeah in dota too positioning is so important. being a few steps out of position can be difference between won and lost game. adding a free blink would just make the game really dumb. alot less skill oriented and super boring meta-game since nobody would even bother ganking cuz killing a farmed carry who also has blink would just be impossible

you should really read what you posted to explain how a LoL blink is dumb by using a fucking hon gameplay description.

i don't like the level of metagame it creates
like chu said, it is a very well made casual game, but it doesn't cater to diverse play styles

in dota 2 we saw MyM with their mass healer mass sheepstick push rape strat and that was sweet as fuck, but you'd never see something unique like that in LoL

otherwise i don't see much of a problem with the game as long as someone can get used to the mechanics, which i'm still a bit iffy over

thats because no top team has the balls to use it in high tier play, same as hon teams don't take big risks thats why all we see is the same picks over and over until one team innovates and that catches on, was the same with the dota 2 tourney just a farmfest

well that's what i mean though
either nobody has bothered to experiment and calculate a legitimate strategy that deviates from keeping Flash on cooldown and farming for eternity, or there are no alternatives to traditional play like we saw MyM do instead of babysit a carry to farm freedom

either you're really dumb or trolling. free blink totally changes the level of skill required to play the game. also makes it very very boring to play competitively. even in chinese dota theres loads of smoke gangs and stuff, but those would be pointless if there was free blink because all a hero would need is vanguard and/or hood and they could surive any gank by tanking the initital burst the blinking away. as i said, its just dumb

and its in LoL not HoN/Dota thats why there is no comparing the two, block me all you want its just a sign that you're a fucktard and cant see past your wrongs
