    Damn that's a lot for a casual game..

    I can see LoL/Dota players coming just to grab the money and destroy everyone, before they go back to their MOBAs again..

    Doubt it, its a simple game but I wouldn't count on a team just hopping in and taking over a tournament on a whim. If that were to happen it would just show had ridiculously basic the game is.

    HOTS in my eyes is a dumbed down version of LoL and LoL is a dumbed down version of Dota2. There is only one MOBA and that is DOTA2.

    HotS > LoL/DotA2. Laning phase is stupid, boring and requires little skill compared to strategic objective management and team fighting, which HotS has a lot more of. Been playing all three games. The basics are the same, but the focus is different. The champions are in general equally difficult to master.

    In my opinion, true skill will always be reflected in the team effort NOT the solo plays. Team coordination is difficult, just compare it to other situations in real life. The most teamwork that is required, the more coordination, the more reliability on each other, the more skill it requires to win a game. Thus, I deem HotS the most difficult of the games (Sorry DOTA2 fanboys, I know you want the glory)
