one fun thing about mobas is recognize abilities from other games in new heroes
-
a lot of mobas heroes have individual abilities borrowed from some hero from some other older moba
but then mixing all those abilities differently makes unique heroes
it's neat -
@lykrast hey, it's visage-oracle-pudge-wraithking!
-
@steffo ooh good point I did not pick up on visage's abilities
but to me victor's 2 is clearly lol dr mundo's ult (current % hp cost for move speed and regen buff)
-
@lykrast that works too!
-
most blatant is the Hook
dota found it with Pudge and then every other moba was compelled to copy it cause it was just that good
-
tho I think there is something fascinating in deadlock Bebop being more (at least superficially) similar to lol blitzcrank than dota pudge (which came first)
-
@lykrast oh, not just superficially: lack of damage is a huge deal!
blitz's hook barely does any damage, while pudge does a massive amount of pure damage via the hook
i guess valve wanted to emphasize that bebop's hook is an utility, not the main way bebop is supposed to do damage with
