lol @ lol. try playing hon. if you can't handle lol, DON'T EVER DOWNLOAD HON. it's WAY more competitive, faster, and pretty much better in every way. If you find LOL frustrating, the rule changes for hon will blow your mind. when i play lol, it's like i'm playing a child version of hon.
I get it, HON is way more elite that LOL.
Anyhow, what I found most frustrating about LOL (which probably applies to DOTA and HON even more) was the snowball effect. I usually played in a group using TS, in which I was the most inexperienced one. As an inexperienced player, you're going to miss out on some early game advantages, which snowball s into missing out on big late game advantages (items). In end effect, I felt quite useless most of the time at the end of a 40 minute game, just because I messed things up at the start compared to the other, more skilful players. At the end of the game, they have an definite advantage AND more skill, which just makes a noob like me flamebait and nothing more.
That kind of snowballing really puts me off of a game. Same goes for 1v1 FPS games with items strewn around the map. If you have less skill, you're **** out of luck because the better player will absolutely dominate the map and you. In round-based games (like CS) where there are no items on the map, the only differentiator is skill and knowledge. Advantages from earlier in the game don't translate into later advantages at all, or at least a lot less.
