Tried Deadlock last night (lemmygrad.ml)

I’m a dota 2 veteran, 6k hours or something embarrassing like that, but it’s been me and my friends primary outlet of hanging out for forever and it’s a lovely game.

Got invited to deadlock, wasn't that interested but wanted to have a go anyway. Damn, it actually goes kinda hard? Character designs are awesome, i like the moba elements (I could see how you wouldn’t be if you don’t have a background in them tho), the controls feel great, etc.

I guess i was just surprised by how much I enjoyed playing it despite being pretty bad at it and having no idea how to evaluate items.

Thoughts?

never bet against icefrog

i don't know how best to describe it but valve's balancing and design philosophy is just fun, it doesn't have this sort of sanitised feel to it that say riot or blizzard have with their games where things have to be 'fair'
