Don't play a game where scrubs can get carried?

What you do recommend?

[MagicManICT]

For a MOBA? Can't really recommend one that would be accepted as having the same "depth" and "strategy" as LoL. But when that depth and strategy is basically ways to monetize the game (runes), and the core gameplay is otherwise just a poor clone of the WC3 DOTA mod... I know people around here have played Heroes of the Storm and haven't generally liked it because of the absent minutia, but overall I think it is a better game. One person can't carry the whole team. You don't have to micromanage every aspect of the game. At high levels of competition, there is a large variety in character builds and nuance. There's as much choice in picks and counterpicks when it comes to drafting as either of the two bigger MOBAs.

Blizzard still hasn't fixed the reconnect problem. If you disconnect from a match, even for a few seconds, you have to play catch-up to the server time, so you end up missing minutes of the match. If you really do have a serious disconnect and have to restart the game, it could take a quarter or even half the match to sync up.

I wish I could mention any of the other MOBAs, but they just can't hold a candle to these 3, and even HOTS doesn't get the player numbers LOL or DOTA2 gets. At least they are running a couple of major tourneys each year with millions in payout (Heroes of the dorm--250k to first place team in scholorships, and a pro tournament circuit with top prizes being tens of thousands to each player on the team for first place.)

One of the major changes in HOTS in the last year or so has been an update to the ranking structure to be similar to LoL and SC2--bronze through diamond with a master/grandmaster ladder you have to keep playing to stay in.

It's on my Wishlist, but don't have the $40. My computer needs a RAM upgrade and video card first before more games. (Needs a CPU, too, but afraid that's going to require a mobo to get much faster.)

I mean just in general, not only these type of game. Dota is my game of choice in this class, but I do not play this one much now. I have not play these storm heroes since some beta phase, but I think this game is no good for me.

Very steep learning curve and very hard to master....but soon or later you'll learn, maybe you will not be the best player ever....but when you manage to finalize a certain attack or outsmart your enemy is very rewarding. It's like chess with some action and explosions , and it's fun also you can build your own deck.
I'm playing this since more than an year and i'm still noob as fuck .....ranked games are very difficult, but against others noobs like me is fun....i'm aiming to play ranked games...but still far right now.
Instead team matches are easier...cause you have to control only some portion of the map.

Idk...more or less, btw they are not always bad, some of them buy keys on sales and stuff like that then sell them....and also most of the games out there deserve to be cheated on their price, this game is not one of them....but you can find also him:
