Really fun.

I will make a long ass review for this game so begginners can decide is this game right for them or not.
I switched from LoL to Dota 2 recently and now i have about 160 hours on Dota 2, which is not a lot but I think I got enough experience to talk about it.

GAMEPLAY - very fun, the game is much harder than LoL, HotS, SMITE etc. - Every hero might seam broken, but you can counter everyone by picking their counters or buying items that counter them. Every match lasts atleast 30 minutes which is the bare minimum for DotA2, you will play 1h+ games quite often.

COMMUNITY - the community is over protective and very toxic, just like in every MOBA game, but you will also get very friendly people in your games (which is awesome). Dota 2 has too many smurfs and that is a big con in my opinion. JUST REMEMBER: you are new and you dont have to explain others why are you playing invoker mid, it is not your fault that they lost their account and now they have to make a new one. JUST MUTE THOSE IDIOTS. Lets move on...

MATCHMAKING - matchmaking is definately not great.... I was lvl 10 and I faced an oppennent who was lvl 70 - but that doesnt happen every game so dont worry about that.

COSMETICS - Valve does a very good job with cosmetics. You can buy HUD skins, Announcer packs, courier skins, hero skins, mega kill streaks, battle pass, emoticons, dota 2 plus etc. - all these items are at the same time expensive and cheap. You can buy a skin for 400$ and 0.30$ and still have fun. - skins are not that important anyway, it is just cool to have a nice hero costume :)

DOTA 2 PLUS - You can get hero chat wheels, legacy bundles, dota 2 plus exclusive bundles, hero levels, hero guides, hero relics - all of this is fun but not needed if you dont have 3.5€ for dota 2 plus each month. Some of those things arent even shown to others if you cancel the subscription so yea...

HERO DIVERSITY - every hero is different, has an unique playstyle which makes this game really fun. Because of huge item pool, almost every game something will be different - you will have to adjust to the game and not just buy same items every single game.

GRAPHICS - Dota 2 has amazing graphics but there are too many things flying over the screen lol so your fps will drop enourmously in teamfights - especially if you are playing against/with Spectre or PL. If you have a bad laptop/computer just put your settings to lowest so you can enjoy your game without fps drops...

You should definately give a shot and try this awesome game, sure it is frustrating at times but it is also very fun and unpredictable. Wishing you the best in your journey lmao, I hope you wont commit suicide :)
