First of all, no ranting here - both games are good in their own way.

So I've been playing League of Legends with my friends a lot lately, and we've been enjoying it a lot - mostly because of how easy and relaxing the game is when compared to a dota 2, which we take really seriously. (Contrary to LoL where players seem to suck at positioning and do not seem to grasp simple game mechanics, at least in our level 20s pubs. Though it's definitely not that way in ranked)

We did this as a break from stressful and competitive dota matches and decided the break was over, and BOY was the break not worth it when we came back.

Long story short, our 1 month break from dota 2 really seemed to lower our game - bad lane control, bad decision making, pressing spacebar repeatedly to try to focus to the hero.. everything.

And while it was a nice experience and LoL was really fun, we'd really like to be back on track in terms of skill.

To the people who play both dota 2 and LoL regularly - how do yo…

Sou um jogador que tem que carregar nas costas uma velha tradição dos jogadores brasileiros de ser de um tipo estranho de jogador. O BR, mais conhecido como o Hue. O jogador Hue é aquele que luta para estragar o seu jogo e não está nem ai para qual for o objetivo em questão. Eu não sou um jogador Hue, mas as vezes esse fardo vem a tona e todos os jogadores (não brasileiros) começam a desconfiar de mim, na melhor das hipóteses eu sou colocado de lado, mas em uma certa partida um jogador americano me deu um reporte antes mesmo da partida começar por que eu não quis repicar o herói que caiu no aleatório. Ele achava que eu simplesmente não iria conseguir jogar com aquele herói.
Quando percebo que algum jogador está agindo estranhamente comigo eu simplesmente começo a me comunicar com o time unicamente em inglês. Isso já me ajudou bastante a superar jogadores preconceituosos, mas nem sempre isso é efetivo. Talvez só seja por causa do simples e puro racismo por parte do…

When it comes to farming items, Maelstrom is frequently forgotten by many players and not even considered by others. Lets have a look at when and why this underrated item can be used:

Hand of Midas - 1900 gold (500/1400). The cheapest farming item, it's 800 gold less than a Maelstrom, and offers an XP boost every few minutes. It provides +30 attack speed but overall is a very weak fighting item, providing no stats or damage.

Maelstrom - 2700 gold (500/1600/600). More expensive than a HoM, but significantly less than a BF, it provides +24 damage and +25 attack speed, as well as it's unique lightning proc. During 25% of your attacks a chain lightning will proc, causing 120 damage to up to 4 nearby enemy units. Upgradable to Mjollnir.

Battle Fury - 4350 gold (1400, 1200, 875, 875). 1650 gold more than a Maelstrom doesn't seem that much, but at this stage in the game, time equals money in a fairly serious way. The sooner you get your farming item, the sooner your gold boo…
