Blizzard created an excellent platform of “craft” series in which refers to Starcraft series and Warcraft series. There are also several games providing this but i guess Warcraft is the best. With the cap limit of 90 food, u must optimize everything in order to achieve victory.

Comparing to Dota, Warcraft original series games requires more macro (of course). Im not here to condemn dota but its a fact why Dota is not qualified to be a competitive gaming to enter the official WCG. You can witness the debate between Dota and the original Warcraft series gaming format by peeping into MYM and SK’s website. There is no fuss about playing dota and the players does not need to be discriminated cuz there are still some professional Dota players who micomanages uber well.

Here is a 10 ten list of all time pro dota players : http://www.gotfrag.com/dota/story/40429/

Let me list it down here -

10. Jolie of Virtus.Pro
9. Hit0mi of eMazing Gaming
8. Hanni of Meet Your Makers
7. LightOfHeaven of sP[Palit]
6. Ars-Art of Virtus.Pro
5. FearDarkness- Retired
4. Loda of SK Gaming
3. Maelk of Meet Your Makers
2. Merlini of Meet Your Makers
1. Vigoss of Virtus.pro

Those players deserves respect, they play Dota with uber micromanagement skills. Watch their replays. They are equipped not only with micro skills, they have super fog control, accuracy, “valid” high APM (not by spamming), great animation cancellation tech, leadership, and great team play.

What we often see in pubs is that late game heroes farm to death that leads to GG. Think about it, are those players deserve to be called a pro? Thats why drafting mode is invented to balance the game and if the game ends up GG with a fat jungle farming troll, blame urself for not warding those creep spawn areas n make use of the wards to gank them so that they wont be able to smell the air of late game arena.

Draft game are made to balance the game. Banning heroes not only for imba heroes, ban heroes that  will give threat to ur team. Thats a strategy and this balances the game. If you ban theirs uber wicked heroes, u gain advantage and force them to re-organize their line up. And the same thing goes to the opposing team, they have the rights to ban urs fav too and this is a fair deal for both sides. Dota is getting balance, its not all about micromanagement only. Dont ever think playing dota is for newbies. On the other hand, if youre a pro dota player, can u micromanage well to play warcraft? Only minor of these individuals are capable of it. Respect the pro and never call urself one, cuz there r still who is much better then u.
