well, I just randomly typed Dota2 and Dota while in match...and it censored it. I didn't know LoL hated dota this much. They are considering the word "Dota" and "dota2" as a bad language....crazy isn't it?

Kind of dumb when you think about how LoL totally cashed in off Dota.

Not any more odd than DOTA 2 cashing in off DOTA. Remember that IceFrog (the guy behind DOTA all-Stars) was the one who started up LoL, and he did it before DOTA2 came along. There was a difference in vision between the various people involved in DOTA, hence the reason it spawned two games instead of one.

Guinsoo and Pendragon both started LoL. The reason why it's censored is not hate, but rather blocking free advertisement to their main competitor. Basic rules of marketing.

God, I remember Pendragon. Played a couple of DOTA games with him years ago. He came off as arrogant without the having the skills to back it up.

You're not alone in thinking that. Dota players especially hate him compared to anyone other Riot staff.

Are you certain? I am not completely sure, but I think I have written that in game before and there was no censorship. You are not just making stuff up to make LoL look bad right?

I think that they put that to not start up disscusions, trolls were very popular at the start of the game, so if they started to censore it , it would make sense.

Nope, they just have contracts with players from their top league (LCS) and are actually paying those players good money. Obviously they don't want those guys to promote other games. oO

if you had a game, would you pay me to promote your biggest rival?

They get paid to stream the game which is also a great form of advertising for whichever game.

It's totally understandable if LoL doesn't want you to advertise it's competitors. They may not be the ones writing the checks to you, but they sure as hell can take it away if they want.

But yeah, if that's true, it seems the common sense and probably some pressure from the masses won in the end. :)

So what? Why would they let people who take part in their tournaments, people that they pay, promote other games?
