After trying out Dota 2...

The mechanic of micro-management is one that greatly interests me. I think that League could implement more ways of micro-management into the game to make it more fun and more skillful. Currently my 2 favorite mid champions are Orianna and Azir and I would personally love it if riot could add more champions like them that rely on positioning something other than themselves.

What do you guys think? Would you want more high skillcap and more micro-based champions in the game?

I think there's already quite a few high skill cap champions. It's important to have a good balance of champion levels for those who don't have those high level mechanics. Annie for example is a great champion mid that doesn't require you to be an expert to be effective.

I dont know in Dota 2 every champion looks the same to me I dont know who is what because they all look the same and it feels strange to play like that.

While Micromanagement champs aren't by themselves wrong. They are a bitch to balance and are limited in the roles they can take. Azir and orianna are pretty much chained to the mid lane and aren't functional in any other.

This isn't so much of a flaw then it is a requirement. Micromanagement champs either inferior to simpler to play champs or rely on the high skill ceiling to justify not making massive changes.

People bitch about how strong Zed is but its due to his high mobility and the items currently favoring his damage type of AD. Nerfing him is a nightmare for riot, however, because his kit has such a high skill cap that its hard to do fixes that don't drasticly change league as a whole. Same deal with Ori and Azir.
