LoL is so trash compared to dota

nice bait

It's actually a pretty neat concept, wouldn't mind a "role preference" opinion for dota 2 matchmaking.

Yet both communities are horrible.

So it's pretty much that they try to "steal" this from the Strife Beta that S2Games or HoN people are trying to make.

Where is this in Strife? I've been playing the beta, and all it does is let you select your hero and pet before the game starts.

It certainly doesn't let you pick a role.

I don't think Strife has enough heroes in it yet for the system to really work. There is one, maybe two support heroes in-game and everyone else is some kind of carry, either physical or magical, or a "bruiser".

Hopefully the sheer number of people will make this work- in games like WoW, you usually end up just waiting for a single role, which in leagues case will likely be support, unless the pure number of people makes it work.

A downside would be the encouragement of simply playing one role (like the people who will instalock ADC before even calling it).

I really want this in Dota as well, so I can play Pudge and Kunka mid for all eternity.

Wouldn't work in Dota.

I think someone on the dev forums suggested something like this a Valve dev shot it down and explained why it'd be a bad idea.
