Buy the game, you get a 20 heroes and ALL items, and then you buy extra stuff like skins and maybe some heroes.
If it will be f2p, it will be full of ******ed children and the community will get messed up like the original DotA. Players respect a game when they purchase it and they dont act like ******s so thats the only reason why it should be purchasable.
I wouldn't mind if i would have to pay a monthly fee because I <3 DotA

Non-free to play. I would buy it as a full priced game, so long as ALL champions come with it.

F2P coz i dont wanna spend a dime on games... As long as you have reputation and you know how to play you will play with good players... And this all champs come with it, they will coz you have different stiles of play like ap,as and so on, it's not like in LOL... So it would be stupid of them to only let you play with 10 heroes or some thing like that...

F2P would completely ruin it. One thing about DotA was all the game modes, which you couldn't do in LoL because you had to buy all the champions. The quality of the game as a whole would be so improved if you just bought it.

DotA is different from LoL. There is no AP. There is Strength, Agility, and Intelligence. And yes it would be stupid of them to only let you play with 10 heroes for free, ere go it being a purchasable game.

Did you even play DOTA? AP = all pick and the host need to type it at the beginning of the game, and DOTA is nothing like LOL... And no it wont be ruined if it is F2P, WC3 was free to play and i loved to play DOta, of course there where noobs and ******s but tell me 1 game where there are no such players...

WC3 was most certainly not free to play, you had to buy the battlechest to play anything, what are you talking about?

And sorry, I didn't realize you were talking about the game modes, thought you meant ability power.

Still though, they are very similar, just different mechanics. You have to lane, take towers, and eventually take the nexus (or tree or frozen throne in dota). LoL is based off of DotA, after all.
