NS Named the Main Drawback of Dota 2

Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov believes that Dota 2 is more stressful than League of Legends and many other online games.

The streamer shared this opinion on Twitch.

“Among competitive games—if you’re specifically looking for PvP—there are games that are much less stressful and more fun than Dota. Even among MOBAs. Yeah, LoL is even better; HotS is better.

And if you look beyond just MOBAs and strategy games, it’s clear there are a million options out there: you’ve got Apex, Overwatch, whatever you want—God forgive me—Valorant. Well, generally speaking, it’s better not to play PvP games at all.”

Acording to Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov, even within the MOBA genre there are plenty of games that cause less stres than Dota 2, and if you consider all PvP games, the number increases many times over. The content creator believes that Dota 2 is more stresful than Apex, Overwatch, or Valorant, but he does not recommend that gamers play PvP at all.

As a reminder, Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov previously defended Oliver “Skiter” Lepko amid regular criticism of the esports player by Alexander “Nix” Levin.
