Ya, we would rather play the dumbed down, simplistic and casual version of a moba that has worse graphics.

Graphics are subjective I think. I find that LoL's graphics are easier on the eyes than say DotA's, but that's just me.

You mean easier on the I suck at mobas so lets play a game with no tps, no denies, no jukes and really tanky towers

I also think you should seriously get your eyes checked

No need to start a flame war between dota 2 and lol....

And the no tps, denies are placed for both teams, so it evens out the playing field in LoL, and there are quite a lot of jukes in LoL (flash, using the bushes—stuff that aren't in dota 2).

Huh ... ? So here comes the assumption that I'm either a DotA fan boy or a LoL fan boy (you probably thought the latter) - well, surprise, surprise: I'm neither. I've played both and so I can say that confidently.

To be perfectly honest, I think they're both a waste of time unless you're got a group of friends to play with. More often than not, you end up in a team with imbeciles through the matchmaking system, regardless of which game it is.

And they always end up ruining the game.

As well, you're correct - maybe I should have rephrased what I said earlier to be clearer: DotA has a dull and drab colour scheme, LoL has a bright and garish colour scheme. That said, I still found it easier to distinguish things in the latter rather than the former, hence my statement it was easier on my eyes (gosh, an opinion, on the internet? Burn the heretic).

As far as complexity goes, define 'complexity'. All I care for is if a game is actually worth playing - and I'm quite certain everyone has their own measure for 'playability'.

Also:

I have no clue, mate.

Perhaps I do require some kind of medical attention - clearly if I've played both DotA and LoL and cannot immediately discern the superiority of one RTS over the other, I must have issues.

ETA: After actually bothering to check the link, I have a question: what was the point of that? All I can see is a flame war.
