why is eurobattle so dead

I agree Dota 2 > Dota 1 but...something called habit, I just cant stop play d1
Also, last some nights I'm seeing bad russian players in my dreams, they just wont stop feeding

That player activity button in dota 2

You don't just stop playing a game that you played for the past several years. Some move on to newer games but some just like to stick with the old games, either because their PC is crappy or because they simply enjoy to play it from time to time.

Dota 2 and other moba derivatives mainly attracted hardcore Dota players and some more casual ones. So inevitably there is a few tens % of players less that will still play D1. It's natural and expected. Is it going to kill w3? Not at all. Some people still like D1 and as long as IceFrog keeps releasing new material there is still future for D1 and it's player base.

Also, W3 as a game can actually benefit from this. Some people consider Dota being the cancer that killed W3, so perhaps when Dota becomes less relevant to W3 community we can shift back to good old days where PG and CG meant something. Less retards who only jumped the wagon for dota and more people who actually care for W3 as a whole.

I think Dota is the thing that kept W3 alive, not killed it.
Look what happened to starcraft 1.
Find me players who still play Sc1 online every day.
Exactly.

[.excellance.]

I think Dota 2 is same with Anime !

Dota > ALL : P

I know right, they could have changed his ulti from a circle coming out of him into a freaking heart coming out, like hey boys I love you all loads wtf xD

[kingW3]

I agree about SF and few others,but mostly d2 models > d1 models and d2 vocals > d1 vocals.Anyway dota is still alive since people who play it doesn't know English(maybe 200 people actually know English) and the gameplay is getting worse since those who are on top mostly left lagabuse for dota 2.Anyway if you didn't force dota that much maybe PG and CG could be played,only way is bots on double servers(only way to play a CG)

and so on.. for almost every hero...

[AiLA]

yes, as well dota 2 is a standalone game, voices in dota 1 are used for original W3 therefore can't really follow anything.... but yeah obviously i agree on the the voices, i was mentioning models which are terrible and want to make me cry, like seriously, weaver, wth.... invoker is probably the only one i can actually look at.... even maiden, like what the hell, QQ

[vaikiss]

i never ever ever ever ever played  sf in dota1  in 8 years or so that i spent playing w3

on dota2 SF is my second most picked hero  with higest win rate (except cheesy push strat heroes)

[pHu^^thAi]

@AiLA i bet u havent played dota2.
i was exactly like you before i start playing .then,everything changed
