    As a primary league player but whom has regularly also played multiple MOBAs simultaneously (League for 10+ as its the game i started with, Dota 2 for 5-6 and Smite/HotS/Battlerite 3 years or less) , I agree with the choices of examples given about league champions and their complexity, but IMHO there is no contest here, *_Dota 2 is obviously no doubt the more complex_* when comparing these two games -
    - firstly Dota 2 as a game simply has *_way more levels of interaction_* in the game through *_mechanics_* and *_game elements_* - in dota you can effect and interact with the trees, the altitude and the high-ground - low-ground leverage, attributes, day and night cycle just to name a few - where as in league your character can only affect yourself, your allies, the enemy and the immediate field and terrain in rudimentary ways
    - secondly is the Dota 2 micromanagement system as mentioned at the start of the video, League literally has no proper micromanagement elements in the games infrastructure, everything you do is controlled and managed through the single character you play and their Q-W-E-R abilities and that's it - due to the lack of micro elements the game has only handful of characters with the ability to summon additional units, and they are either on full auto-pilot, their positioning can be controlled with rudimentary mouse-click + ability cast commands or you can just guide the focus of their action pattern with a simple spellcast - Dota 2 is just far more complex in terms of infrastructure - and Dota 2 has a whole subset of characters with playstyles based around this infrastructure that doesn't even exist in the other game
    - thirdly, Dota 2 due to it's more complex nature of its mechanics and ways to interact with the game, has also *_hard-counters_* and *_counter-mechanics_* to completely nullify your interaction and/or impede you from interacting with the game in a specific manner, thus limiting or simply denying certain options - League doesn't have these sort of hard-counters or ways to nullify and/or impede you from interacting with the game - so effectively any character can still beat any another character, the circumstance is simply askew one way or the other - and the best characters are the ones whom are the most flexible and simply have the most mechanics available to them, or have most options with the mechanics available to them, which is why the modern champion design in league is detested by many, because the newer modern characters simply have way more mechanics implemented into their kits, thus giving them more options, and these options cannot be stopped or denied from them - where as older champions simply have to compete with less mechanics and interactions available to them

      Nevermind the absurdity of item builds in DotA2. Items alone make or break how effective you are. Whether it be stats, sheep stick, BKB, Blink, or even just 6 Rapiers. DotA is a game of madness where League is, generally, a more consistent experience.

That's why there's so very few active items, and even fewer still will be added. Also, why there's huge limits to stuff, such as being allowed only one mythic, only one type of potion, only one type of boots and so on... There's an intentional push toward less complex items, since the champs are already as complex as intended.

Viego's base kit is very powerful and incredibly easy as opposed to Morphling who is always one stun in agility stance away from being instantly killed as well as being incredibly focused around that stat switch decision as opposed to Viego who just charges at someone gets a stun does insane damage with max health damage because he always buys BORK without question it is his item.

      I love it so much his old passive was 40%ms then 20% slow + crit it was good but not great and then they went "we really want to lean into the elemental spirit side of this" and gave him separate stances representing each spirit with different effects but you primarily spend it in wind stance and earth stance depending on lane matchup, in extended trades use fire and when chasing switch between wind and void, wind for the ms and void for the slow on attack, if you feel really spicy you can mix fire into that for a chance at a crit. AND THIS IS ONLY HIS E.
      His Q is super simple, his W is decently simple too, his ult is pretty much just run people down early game, primarily focus on your earth brewling for that stun on q, he now has q displacement on void brewling where it does a magnus charge but it used to just aoe disarm. His wind brewling is where all the brain goes, as it has 3 spells, a purge removing buffs, a euls scepter and an invis which does extra damage on exit.
      I won't go into detail but the aghanims is just spawning one of your brewlings outside of ult.
      Honestly feels crazy that he's so unpopular because I don't think he's actually as difficult as people think, he's still difficult but nowhere near the most difficult in the game.

    I think it's important to mention Arc Warden. He's not Meepo-tier difficulty, but I think the fact that to be effective with him you need to juggle not only 6 heavily conditional abilities across two heroes, but swap fluidly between their items as well in a game where you NEED to use item actives, is worthy of discussion. Throw in the fact that his base damage and base stats are pretty pathetic and that he needs to make it to the late game to shine, and I think he fits in the higher tiers of both mechanic and macro complexity. He's not Meepo, but he's also not easy.

    I would personally say, when it comes to difficulty/complexity, Earth Spirit is also really high on the list. The reason for that being, he's basically impossible to play effectively without using directional movement. That means, you push down a button you bind for directional movement and click to move to a direction instead of a place. His first ability kicks someone or something (any unit and Stone Remnant) into the direction he's facing, not a direction you choose, you choose the thing, not the direction (except Stone Remnants, you can aim those). He also has the Stone Remnant ability that puts down Stone Remnants like Syndra does with her orbs, but he kicks, magnetises them to himself, uses them to propell himself further and uses them to increase his potency of his ult (for the simlicity of things, I'll just say it does damage over time and it does more things with the Stoen Remnants and more damage with the Stone Remnants).
    TL;DR: The hero is about spacial perception and execution. I literally had to get used to a unique finger positioning just to play that hero somewhat.

    You also forgot Rubick - he has one stun (Which also allows him to throw his enemies in different directions, doubling both as a target and area stun), a fade bolt which deals damage and weakens a hero, and a passive which increases all of his cast/item ranges and spell damage. But he is also capable of stealing the last ability an enemy casts, meaning technically he can have between 13 to 23 spells during the game (Oh, and his aghanim allows him to steal two spells at a time and also upgrade them, and although you don't take any items into account, it is a major difference in terms of gameplay)
    But i think it's not fair to title this as a "hero complexity" comparison, because even the most simple heroes of dota will be significantly more challenging when you mix items and general game situations, two things you did not cover here.
    And as you've said, complexity does not equal to game being worse or better. In the end, you can play casually in either and still find success

    I would only really consider summoner spells a part of the champion complexity in a case where there is special interaction.
    Most of the time flash will simply be used to create/close distance and ignite is a simple click for some extra damage/heal reduction in an all in.
    However for a champion like for example lee sin where more complex use of flash in the form of insec plays are a core part of playing the champion i think its fair to consider Flash a core part of the champion complexity.
    It is essentially the difference between playing earthshaker with or without blink dagger.

    1 [In my personal experience League is built on the premise of being easier. It's not only faster mechanics and faster particles, with less delay, less punishing mechanics, but League is more meta reliant (meaning that the game actively punish you for playing off meta, in a way that you aren't suppose to).]
    2 [Picking some basic example, in League you can't go 2-1-2 (meaning 2 person top, 1 mid and 2 bottom), nor 1-1-3, 1-1-1 and 2 jungle, not that those strategies are common place, but you can develope those things and win in Dota as trilane or with 2 junglers. The point being that even in the most basic rule of gameplay such as: How many people are in one lane per game? Can change with great variety depending on the team. In League that is fixed and anything else than 1-1-2 + 1 jungler is trolling or a game breaking problem (remember people picking supports top and then roaming the map taking advantage of bounty systems and gold/xp catch up system). Other example is that you could totally not level up an ability if it was too resource intensive or not worth the early investment, something that would be also trolling in league. League is really more fixed than Dota in that regard.
    I'm not mentioning also the other main point, champions classes and subclasses. In dota functions exists, but champions are so unique that how they play is radically different and the impact they have in the game is huge. Whereas League, you want a tank to soak damage, an adc to deal damage, a support to peel the damage dealer, the assassin to burst squishy targets, and someone to engage. There used to be more type of compositions but were dropped in favor of faster and more damage oriented type of gameplay (the mentality being that if the enemy is dead then I can finish the game sooner) and you probably want to pick S tier champions as they stomp everything else and if you can't, well you pick the next similar thing that isn't banned and does everything the S tier does but a little worse.
    In dota as said, there is meta, but team composition/counterpicks, and the unique nature of champions make it harder to be as cookie cutter. ]
    3 [In my opinion, Dota skill ceiling is higher than League, but League is meant to be more mainstream.
    Big disclaimer: You should play whatever game you enjoy most regardless of complexity either way.]

    I think it's worth mentioning that complexity =/= difficulty to play. For instance, I love high mobility nukers, like timbersaw, ember, storm and tinker. While these heroes are more mechanically intensive than something like a sven let's say, I am way better with any of these heroes than I am with right click carries like Sven. Having a lot of fancy tools means you have a lot of options. I'm used to playing heroes that can easily engage and disengage the fight, so when it comes time to look at the enemy hero, look at my hero and estimate who is stronger and then manfight it out I am relatively bad at it. Something like sven actually requires a shitton of skill to play well, you need to position yourself to not get kited, you have one stun so better use it at the right time, you need to decide when to press your long cd abilities, and you need to gauge whether it is time to back or go in well in advance, because if you decide to backout too late you will just die, because you have no real escape. Your options are limited, and so you need to make every action count. Point is, while invoker may be more complex than say a phantom assassin or something, it is equally difficult to play them properly at a high skill level. Think for instance how hard it is for Sven to kill a puck, and how easy it is for puck to run away on 2% hp if Sven miscalculates even slightly.

    I think it's unfair to compare the complexity of the character's spells and abilities without taking into account the greater complexity of the game in which they are and consequentially of how they are played. You put Naga as below average, but a good naga player has to farm both lanes as well as jungle. I don't think that's less complex than having to trigger combos using your spells while your camera is set on your lane and your 1-2 opponents for most of the time.

      But then you are just comparing "which game is more complex" though, and it goes back to the two things I said at the start, is it mechanics, or skill ceiling, or what?
      Like, dota's macro gameplay is way more complex than league, because you have a more dynamic map with a lot more use cases aside from "wall hides me but i can hop it" stuff, and you got a more active jungling meta in the midgame.
      But league has more weird champion designs, and two objective kills, that are clear winning conditions and worth fighting over, while roshan can be varied, like, you can choose to not fight at the rosh pit because you have a better chance in high ground defense 5v6 as opposed to cage match 5v5 at the pit

    Dota's complexity comes from its simplicity. Like Vengeful Spirit is a pretty straightforward hero: stun (Magic Missile), lower armor + attack damage, (Wave of Terror) increase attack damage of teams (Vengeful Aura), and swap hero/enemies position with herself (Netherswap). On paper, this is a pretty simple hero to grasp.
    However, who you stun, when to stun, who to lower armor/attack damage, and who to swap are all what makes her a complex hero. Swapping to save your teams from enemies makes her one of the strongest heroes in the game. Her sacrificial nature makes strategical usage of her spells very important, and she can turn the tides of battle (swap to save your team from a Skywrath Mage + Faceless Void combo), as easily as she can fuck them up (swap in enemy Tidehunter or Magnus and set up their wombo combos for them).
    League makes their spells complex by adding needless complexity. Vengeful being leaguified would be that her Magic Missile only does damage, and does not stun unless target is affected by Wave of Terror first. Yes, it adds complexity, but for not much reason.

Having a blink dagger is like having a super flash on a 13s cooldown, and you wouldn't need to play dota to understand how massive having a long range flash would be for a hero who has as much mobility as a tractor like Wraith King. Say, if League has an item that give Garen or Darius a jump as far as a Zac (and without the wind up), would you still say those champions will play the game the same way as before? Items legit completely change how the hero approach team fights in Dota, unlike the modifications and amplifications you see in League. Not to mention, abilities in Dota is upgradable, and it's far more ridiculous than Khazix Evolutions or Viktor Cores upgrade. With Aghanim Scepter Wraith King Ultimate gain a passive aura that kept his ally alive for 8 sec after their demise, allowing them to continue casting abilities (like an aoe Karthus passive).

    I find it interesting how both games take different approaches to adding complex wrinkles.
    Dota (for the most part) has simple heroes. Their kits are simple, and execution often involves point and click. By contrast, league champions have (generally) more demanding kits. Even for simple abilities like "press q to do damage", you have to land a skillshot to execute it.
    Both games character kit complexity defines their itemization. Because league has complex characters with a ton of red flags the developers have to pay attention to (executes, resets, etc.) Its difficult to add an item like DFG and make it balanced in that environment. By contrast, because dota has simpler abilities it allows the items to be more complex. Some of my favorites are refresher orb (reset every cooldown. If you had summoners in dota you'd reset those too) and blink dagger (flash on a 15 second cooldown, full screen length).
    I play both and I dont have a preference; they're distinct systems and I enjoy them equally but in different ways.

    Despite the quite lengthy hero wiki page Brewmaster has, I'd argue he's the most complex hero of that final list you put (Invoker, Meepo, Chen, himself and Lone Druid), but also the least mechanically demanding of the lot.
    It boils down to him basically having almost every mechanic you mentioned in the video, plus he has a stance system.
    His stances mostly affect which passives he gets at the time, which are also linked and affected by one of his spells, so he also has spell combos. His ulti turns him into an RTS player, because he now has several units to control, each with their own spells, but they are always the same spells, which most of them are point-and-click or have a very generous Area of Effect to work with.
    And this state is temporary, so he's still less mechanically demanding than Chen.
    If anything, in a hectic teamfight, I think it's actually more difficult to keep track of which stance the Brew player is in at the time, than actually playing the hero.

    • @levisamom5069
      @levisamom5069 Год назад

      Yeah brew is a very good example of complexity =\= difficulty... All ud need for him is knowledge on his abilities and just some basic micro skills like tab switching and ur good to go... His stance system can decently function with just 1 stance the entire game like storm which gives evasion and mov speed which is generally good all round... Although yes maximizing the heroes potential is whole other thing
      I would also like to highlight kunkka as sort of an antithesis to brew master not necessarily as a "two sides of the same coin" deal but more of a "similar sides of two different coins"... He has quite a simple kit to understand and with a low skill floor to pick up and play but his skill ceiling is potentially limitless with players like attacker who does the craziest shit with the hero

    I’d say it doesn’t really make any sense to include summoner spells but not items. Blink being a summoner spell in LoL and an item in DotA means this list skews toward LoL being more complex in some regards. You can’t really separate items from the complexity of heroes/champs

    I think this may be your league experience, but some of the hero you mentioned are actually kinda complicated. In league, complex hero means press button fast and have many button. Like that shield dude you showed that blocked the path, that’s like low level ability complexity in dota. That’s really just Kunkka shard (he’s got 6 disables), and kunkka isn’t a hard hero. My reaction was just that the shield dude blocking the path is just kinda a normal interaction for a lot of dota hero lol. In dota, complex heroes have skills that require lots of game knowledge and macro gaming, not just micro. Invoker is just hardest league hero, but it’s in dota so each of those spells can just kinda do what that shield guy did in terms of play potential and game impact. Deafening blast + ice wall for example, does pretty much the same thing. Meepo isn’t the hardest character in the game cuz of his crazy micro, he’s the hardest cuz he has the craziest micro and the craziest macro. Dota is a very long term game, and pretty much every macro decision you make as Meepo can take a dump on your game. You gotta know every hero and every matchup and every item he builds intimately because you’re gonna change your build a lot depending on the game. Wraith King is mechanically simple, but I don’t think he’s brain dead. Not only is he a carry, so messing up like twice can screw the entire game over; but he’s balanced around his ultimate being so strong. Walking at heroes and clicking right in dota is much harder than it sounds, especially on a hero that has no skills to help him do that like WK. Still not hard or complex, but even he is deceptively complex when you actually gotta use him due to his drawbacks. In dota, naga is a fairly complex hero to play optimally, you’re essentially playing a single player RTS tower defense game to choke the life out of your opponents over the course of the game and having the most impact with the least interaction. It’s hard to call many heroes “brain dead” in dota, just cuz of how complex the game is. Having simple skills can actually be a detriment, as more complex kits are more complex BECAUSE of how deep they are strategically instead of mechanically. Void Spirit is a hero with simple skills but very high strategic execution because his simple spells quite simply give him *options* and not just more buttons to press.

It has been hard for me to get into Dota 2 multiple times due to unfamiliarity, as well as the realistic?? High medeival fantasy?? artstyle. Which doesn't really appeal to me as I like the muted cartoonish graphics and colors.
    Never been into things that are spastic, robust, cluttered, and hard to easily depict. From character silhouettes to their individual design + vfx palettes and how they are designed for their intended performance get lost on me in Dota 2.
    It was very difficult to differenciate even my HUD the last time I attempted (I think Mid 2021).
    In addition to this, I am unsure about the surrounding environments of Dota 2. I don't hear a lot about the connected titles and how/if they are updated and in a similar polished state.

    Sorry for long post but I play both games and I admit League of Legends is far more complex in hero kits, whilst a point and click champs in league feel old and outdated, releasing something like Tryndamere or Annie in Dota wouldn't have much complaints. The reason why Dota is more complex overreal is items. To make up for this there are way more active items, in League whilst you may have only 1 or 2 active items, in Dota it's basically standard to have 5 or even 6 items with an active meaning the complexity is more in item purchases than hero kits.
    Whislt you mostly build same 3 items every game in League, in Dota there is a lot more flexibility as you aren't forced into picking items for stats as much (No AP or AD scaling abilites in Dota) so almost every item in the game is viable on any hero to an extent. And whilst in League
    Dota is generally more chaotic with lv1 fights being a standard whilst in League invades are pretty rare and games last FAR longer due to inner towers being harder take and having fortification glyph (shared cooldown by all teamamtes thatt make sturcutres and creep temporarily immune), so you have a lot more planning to make.
    Controlling other illusions (Clones) or other creeps like Warlock Golem's (Tibbers) or jungle creeps with Chen and Enchantress (yes you can do that) is mandatory and it's not unusually for high elo players to mico manage 5 clones at once with Naga Siren. Hell Meeop's entire kit is basically controlling 3-4 heroes at once and champions like Aphelios don't even match the skill floor and abilities that Meepo has.
    Generally League is more 'balanced', abilities have FAR less mana costs (most heroes can only use spells 2-3 times in early game) and do way more damage due to having abilities ratio's. CC is way longer in dota and I laugh when League players complain about not being able to move when Shadow Shaman and Bane with Octarine core and refresher orb can basically perma CC you (3 second stuns are standard in Dota), items like Blink Dagger which is a flash on a 15 sec cooldown and has way more range or BKB which makes you hero immune to CC for up to 9 seconds or even refresher orb which resets all the all of your items and abilities. Most abilities are point and click which is how Linken's Sphere and Lotus Orb (blocks/reflect point and click item and spells) are considered good items
    *'OP' Dota Hero Abilties*
    Nature Prophet has a TF ult lv1 on 60 second cooldown, has ZERO second cooldown (you heard that right) at lv25 talent (NP is actually quite bad due to pro play nerfs)
    Shadow Shaman has Malz ult lv1 for double the CC duration (Bane has same but only lv6).
    Silencer ult is global 4.5-6 second point and click silence (no channel duration), has 100 second cooldown at max rank
    Underlord ult is basically Ryze ult but with global range
    Naga Siren ult is point and click aura around her that stuns enemies for up to 7 seconds with up to 1400 range (ranges same as league) balanced by not being able to take damage whilst stunned (used for getaway, chasing or setting up in teamfights). She can move during this and cancel any time.
    Sniper can get up to 950 Auto attack range when he max his E (which is a passive at no cost to his dps) and usually can increase it by a good 400 with items and talents. Spell and Attack Range numbers in Dota are about the same as League so imagine Caitlyn with triple AA range. (Balanced by ADC not being a true class so no 100% crit and Sniper being super slow and squishy)
    Spirit Breaker has Nocturne ult lv1 (without darkness) on a 17-11 second cooldown which stuns the enemy on contact and is completely global(although the travel time is way slower)
    Doom ult is point and click 16 silence that prevents enemy from using items as well (not a channeling abilty), used to last 20+ with talents. (Balanced by the rest of his kit being fairly weak and pro play nerfs)
    Tinker has free Refresher Orb as ult (look what Refresher Orb below) which refreshes the ult itself and can teleport to any strucutre at lv6 or Allied Hero after max rank
    Alchemist has Mundo R on 60 second cooldown all ranks, 30 second cooldown when you consider the fact that it lasts 30 seconds
    Enchantress and Chen can control and 'modify' jungle creeps and cast their spells. Helm of the Dominator item does the same thing.
    *'OP' Dota Items*
    Dragon's Lance is a item that is basically Ruunan's Hurricane without the charge, just +150 range passively. Can be upgraded into Hurricane Pike which gives same range and basically Galeforce active on 19 sec cooldown (can be used on allies and enemies as well)
    Black King Bar (BKB) gives hero up to 9 seconds of CC immunity for 50 mana cost
    Aghanim Scepter and Aghaninms shard litterly grants EVERY hero in the game a new ability or upgraded ability for relatively low prices.
    Referesher orb refreshes cooldowns of all items abilites (no excpetions)
    Aether Lens grant all items and abilites (not Auto attacks) 225 extra bonus range (Range units are about same in League and Dota) for 2275 gold (Gold prices also about the same but Dota having more expensive items). Some neutral Items (items you get for free by killing Jungle camps, also grant spell and attack range
    Blink Dagger is Flash on a 15 second cooldown with same range as a Caitlyn R, Balanced by giving 0 stats for 2250 gold (most expensive item in the game that doesn't give stats) and not being able to use it if you're taking damage (Can't escape only engage)
    Rod of Atos is point-and-click 2 second root with decent range and low cooldown (lower cooldown than Everfrost with around double the range). Can be upgraded into Gleipnir wich makes the root AoE and also gives a Stattik Shiv passive.
    Eul's Scepter gives you or enemy Zhonya's stasis (exact same duration surprisingly) but for 23 second cooldown. Can be upgraded into Windwaker so you can move during the stasis (but not attack or cast spells and only you not enemies) for a 13 second cooldown.
    And much more...
    Most League players would delete the game if any of these were ever added to the game in their currents states but it's considered normal and balanced in Dota, hells Nature's prophet with his 0 second TF ult is one of the worst champs in the game due to constant pro play targeted nerfs.
    If Dota players could see how much crit or CDR you can get in league they'd probably call it broken, most spells in Dota have way higher mana costs (120 is average mana cost of a spell) and higher cooldowns. Only Octarine core provides cdr (excluding from neutral items) and its 4600g and Deadulus and Silver's Eddge grant crit which don't stack and are very expensive. Most OP items are more expensive and gold efficiency is a big thing, Refresher Orb is like 20% gold efficent whilst Zhonya's is about 100%. Because most damage comes from one's kit or from stacking spells and attacks in teamfights which is why Dota have voice chat whilst League doesn't. To compare the two games for how good the kits are and saying one is better is ridiculous.

      I think I got a TL:DR version of this.
      ""
      Dota is more complex when considering items, league is when not thinking of items. Things in dota seem OP. Active powerful items are standard.

    I would say that most difference in complexity comes from design focus. In DotA, a lot of (if not most) abilities are a little bit clunky on purpose, so you have to either predict enemy movement, or hope that your team will make setup for you.

Watch as the chaos of league heros using blink dagger and the cancer of legion Jungle returns. also, old techies would fit in the WTF tier due to his entire thing requiring a lot of time management and getting into the heads of the enemy team.

    I believe DOTA heroes are harder to play overall. But not because they are more complex (because they're not, except for some stupidly difficult heroes), but because of the overall mechanics of the game.
    I find LoL champions much easier to get into, which is actually great. They are more nimble and the game is more forgiving overall. Learning a new hero is exciting. You get to understand mechanics, design new build, etc.
    In DOTA, it's a pain to learn a new hero. You already know the hours you're going to have to put in to understand how to play.
    LoL champions have more complex mechanics embedded in each champion, which makes it very interesting. Something they should definitely add to DOTA. But those mechanics can be pretty simple and - on some champions - you don't even need to think about it.
    The reason why DOTA heroes are harder despite being less complex is because:
    1) DOTA heroes are much slower.
    2) All spells are much more powerful, especially when it comes to crowd control.
    3) Mistakes are much less forgiving in DOTA.
