I don't know how that compares with Dota but you kind need to know what's the champions does to watch the tournaments

Same for Dota, but I've played both so in my case it's not really about knowledge. In Dota abilities have a bigger cooldown, often more wind-up, stuns are longer, the map is larger and abilities have more range which makes everything a lot more readable in my experience

And strategically it's day and night you have crazy tower dives 5 minutes in with 6 heroes, pros play ultra aggressively and every move is a clutch, it can be absolute cinema

Talking about League or games in general? I agree for most games, for example Dota is very entertaining in tournaments. But League specifically has an extremely stale meta in terms of overall strategy, and when fights finally happen, they are just too fast to understand anything

Dota is overall better and that makes it worse. Quitting was the best decision of my life and my friend's

Totally normal, tournament games are actually trash to spectate because the game is ultimately very poorly designed so coordinated professional play is extremely tedious

If you want to get the appeal find a high rank streamer you can vibe with and watch them play solo ranked. The game's addictiveness is about the solo ranked experience

Subset's games will be remembered as one of the most important achievements in terms of pure game design mark my words

Probably because eating all the roots would kill the tree which is unsustainable long term

From what I've heard, the larvae feeds on one of the worst food ever in terms of calories and nutrition which is why it takes so much time. So basically they're just chilling on their piece of tree root which doesn't really screams "active" to me but maybe I'm wrong
