Where do you even start with this? On any given day it can be a completely different game. It's the sequel to a major part of my childhood and when it first game out it was a dream come true. It was a game that lacked the issues I had with League of Legends done by Valve with Icefrog it was a dream come true.

Over the course of the next decade the game underwent a variety of changes both small and large and while I didn't agree with or love them all it was still an excellent time particularly with friends. Over time it became more difficult to keep up with each change and meta permutation, a match became something I increasingly wished I could step away from in the middle of especially during 90+ minute grinders, the game took itself both more and less seriously and slowly I came to realize it wasn't the game I loved anymore. If you enjoy the moba genre and want to try a game with a long standing legacy and engaging mechanics that will reward skill improvement and knowledge significantly then sure give it a shot but if you've been sucked into the moba genre for years and years where the matches are less fun every day just remember you can stop playing it.
