Discussion A tweet that has me thinking.

I don’t know if Riot can copy what valve has created with Deadlock. The atmosphere and setting so what I think makes deadlock so enjoyable. Yes the gameplay is amazing and the moba aspects are great but I just don’t think riot will even try to copy valve and make a deadlock clone. What is all y’all’s thoughts.

i dont think they care to compete with deadlock, League is doing well and is very different when compared to deadlock to where itll exist with no issue.

I really hope valve shut riot down fully this time by actually for once marketing the absolute fuck out of their game and they have the perfect recipe for it this time , go full animations and a show ...etc , the game is built with lore in mind and all the characters are great , even the least interesting ones are better than most of lol characters and they managed to make a show out of those even tho it didn't add shit to LOL player base as they hoped it would lol.

They already got comics leaked and more planned along with maybe meet the team kind of animations...etc

This game has a lot going on idk how you can make it so that anyone that has held a mouse before can perform without knowing anything like league does
