DotA 2 vs PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
DotA 2
DotA 2 , like League of Legends, is among the world's most popular MOBA with millions of players logging in everyday. The game features exhilaratingly strategic gameplay where teamwork is of utmost importance, as well as a myriad of well-designed maps, and a lineup of delicately balanced heroes, each with their own roles, specialities, strengths and weaknesses. Each hero can be further customized to fit the role needed and the playstyle of the player with items that can be purchased while in a match. DotA 2 is also the world's most competitive MOBA with millions of dollars iven to the winners at its main event, The International, which was held annually.PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is a battle royale game that features a vast open world island filled with plenty of resources to scavenge. Being a battle royale game, everyone will start off on an equal playing field. Through clever scavenging and picking the correct fights will you end up with the last few survivors to battle it out for the winning spot as the map will gradually shrink, pushing survivors closer and closer together.In some way, Player Unknown's Battlegrounds reminds me of Hunger Games, albeit a much more brutal Hunger Games that you can actually play in, and I'd actually like that.
However, the game is still pretty poorly optimized long after its release as an early access game, and well, the game has drawn plenty of flak since the devs have started banning anybody who killed a streamer who cries foul due to this thing called "Stream sniping", giving rise to a pretty bad and toxic atmosphere where streamers are players whom you literally can't kill in fear of being banned for no reason other than getting the upper hand on a streamer. Worst thing is the game's not exactly a free-to-play, so if you do get banned, that's literally money down the drain.
So, even if the game is as epic a battle royale game as it is, you should keep these downsides in mind going in. Gameplay-wise, the game is amazing, but you will need to be wary of its increasingly toxic community (both players and the team managing the PR side of the game).
Its developer, BlueHole, has recently (as of March 2018) released the mobile versions of the game, PUBG Mobile. The mobile version of PUBG is available on both Android and iOS.
