What other players think, Q #1

 

1) What impacts (major changes) do you think -rd would have on the playstyle?

I believe that -rd would change the lineups and would possibly make the games a bit more fun to watch for the allready geeky dota fans, but make it easier for spectators to watch? No I don't belive it would help ^^
The playstyle would be pretty much the same, the same teams will play farm, rarely I've seen a rd pool without a lategamer. And from my views of DotA as it is now either the team with 5 tier 1 heroes or the team with the best lategame wins ^^

"Rd is definitely a new mode for competitive play and i think the random heroes will affect the game a lot."

Even though in the 52e apxl games we see a lot of different heroes it may bring even more variety. In 52e in most of the games you see a usual pattern of heroes, a carry, a support hero and as much as aoe heroes as possible. I think the fans have gotten bored of that. However if this happens (converting to RD) there will be some broken pools of heroes, and that will cause a little imbalance, at least in my opinion, and that's luck factor only.

Players with more pub/inhouse experience will benefit from this mode alot more i think. Also by saying this -rd can turn out into either a farm or gank-fest depending on the pool.

I dont think there would be major changes on the playstyles since there are so many out there already. But my guess is that it will be more action packed than in -apxl 52e.

Depends on the heroes that are randomed in the pool. fast games or long games :)

It will be inherently unfair in every draft as certain heroes will be too powerful in draft and all or only available counters are not in the pool. But it saves time in drafting which is a good thing.

I think use -rd will make less unique tactics used, because basicly no tactic can apply or prepare before the tournament. Its only skill and lucky, dont have tactic.

in my oppinion rd=luck factor, in 52e variety of heroes almost increased. first of all, the problem with 52e should be mentioned. then solutions can be created after it
