I do doubt it. Just the way I doubted that a Star Wars MMO would unseat WoW. It wont unseat League of Legends, because League of Legends has so many players, it has a huge amount of gravity to it. Unless Blizzard can offer something entirely unique that League does not, and the thing they offer is valuable and interesting enough to players for them to forget about the fact that their friends play League, then no, it wont unseat League.

League already outperforms WoW in internet traffic.

Of course, I cannot say for certain, and neither can you, but I do not see a game Blizzard is making defeating League just because it is Warcraft, in the same way I don't see WoW getting unseated by a game because it is Star Wars. That doesn't help grab people away from the gravitational attraction of a huge player base.

EDIT: Oh, and lastly, this doesn't even matter. Blizzard is still pissy about DOTA 2, lol. This is just an attempt to sidetrack into another irrelevant conversation because you realize you were wrong.

Thread was never about blizzard being mad at icefrog, thread was about blizzards new mmo "heroes of the storm" so try again.

I think if anything it'll get a lot more people into MOBAs who haven't tried them already, but they'll bleed a bunch of new recruits to LoL if Riot keep on keeping it fresh.

"Blizzard is just pissed that IceFrog asked Valve to make DOTA 2 instead of them."

That's the post you were responding to, and you were wrong in responding to. I brought it up to slander this game, and you responded, and were shown to be wrong. If you felt it was irrelevant, you should have just let it go. Nice try.

This is what I see most likely happening.

Who cares if blizzards pissed, not me. I just said that blizzards new moba will eventually have more of the market then both dota 2 and league of legends. Now u may or may not agree with that, i don't care, you will see in due time.

Heroes of the Storm is more team oriented, there is no items, no last hitting, team shares exp, talent system that changes your character as you level up, daily quests, epic quests, 4 random maps with side objectives, etc.

More casual for sure but its why i believe that it will out do both league and dota.

Lol. I am just going to go ahead and let your comments speak for themselves. I am having a hard time convincing myself that you're not a troll any longer, so if you are trolling, excellent job. You have me right on the point of believing you're sincere.

so this is the game they scrapped Titan for. seems like a desperate attempt by blizzard to try and retain some fans that they were losing to LoL. IMO its just gona drive them into the ground until Warcraft/Starcraft is resurrected.
that being said, im gona play the shit out of this game, but it could be alot better in so many ways. and i would recommend everyone else play it to, because we all know that blizzard games get better as they release more xpacs (not really).

what ever happened to the Warcraft/Starcraft crossover FPSRPG? i thought that was what Titan was slated to be.

Did they really scrap Titan? I thought it was just delayed. Man, I am behind on the times then.

from wikipedia:

Quote:

In August 2013, Blizzard president Mike Morhaime said that the game had reached a significant internal testing milestone, and was going into wider internal testing. Describing it as an "action real-time strategy" game, he said that Blizzard was looking to put their own spin on the genre and challenge some of the existing design paradigms. The Blizzard All-Stars team was expanded in May 2013, from some of the resources who were reallocated when Blizzard's Project Titan project was rebooted and the team downsized. On October 17, 2013, the name of the game was changed to Heroes of the Storm.
