Dota 2 does so many things better than League

First, no, I'm not referring to gameplay. They are fairly different and I believe it's a preference thing, no one is better than the other.

It's sad to see all the things Dota has that League doesn't, especially since it's playerbase is far smaller. What I mean by this are things like replay system. I can pick matches from my match history and download replays easy peasy. There is a sandbox mode that allows players to do a load of things, including spawning heroes to test abilities and what not. Additionally, if someone disconnects, there is a system to make it so the other players don't suffer. To add to the list is that there is a ping tester, and you can pick any server you want at any time and the preferred language (Though this may have been not possible due to how league was set up, keeping in mind Riot was always rich).

"Why don't you just play Dota"

I love League for it's gameplay, so I put up with these things. Frankly, I don't like Dota. It's so sad that Dota has all these thigns and League has nothing to brag about. Rotating Queue? Dota has around 9 gamemodes you can play at any given time.

Riot needs to step up their game

you can't know this.

never used the replay system in dota 2, it's overestimated

you're right on this one

no, the better system is the pause system that allows you to wait someone for 5 min if he disconnected, if there isn't an AFK the enemy team can unpause preventing abuses

in the end, you missed the most important things in dota 2, like custom skins and marketing, or being able to test skins, or having cheap skins ect...
