HoS has replays.

Your move Riot.

(seriously, why we have to use 3rd party programs for recording replays? ;/)

I like HoTS better for the way the towers are (I feel like Im in a base, not some rock tower outpost) and the characters are much more diverse and creative. They also have the innate upperhand in a small way since their characters have been known and loved for a long time and most have much more extensive lore due to this. Replays aren't the selling point for me, its the extreme character diversity and the map mechanics that allow for character diversity.

While the HoS system is far from perfect... Weren't we promised a replay system... YEARS ago? I wonder what happened with that...

And this...

Well, I'm in no position to put one game over another and starting such comparsions is childish in my eyes. But Blizzard has done one thing right: they took characters and lore they already had and most people knew and liked and made something new out of it... meanwhile: League lore: "This place is under construction: since: forever".

Also, the replay system was announced over TWO YEARS ago. "Yes, we see the players want this, WE ARE WORKING ON IT..."

I still wonder what happened to that project.

I personally think HoS is better, like the way that 1 person can't really carry it's more of a team game, and since it's global xp it's easier to roam and gank, and take objectives is more important

Hero of the Storm can be maphacked, due to the same replays.

Yea... few years ago i've said to my friends, that i'll take a break from lol, and come back, when replays are implemented. Break was about 2 years, and no replays. I was like... wtf? And now... it's like we are 5 or more years from first lol release and stil no reps?

Well, do you guys remember when dj Sona skin was releasen? There was "Show us your best plays event". But how am i supposet to do that? Record every game i've had with CRACKED Fraps (yea, cracked, cuz i dont own youtube channel and i've got no reason to use that program)? Or recoprd every game with LoLReplay (yea, that doesn.t work too well, and i don't know why :().

So, my main point is replays. I know than both games good and bad points.
