NS named a unique game that closely resembles a mix of Deadlock and Dota 2

Yaroslav "NS" Kuznetsov, streamer and former esports player, considers Overwatch a unique game with distinctive gameplay that resembles a mix of Deadlock and Dota 2.

He shared his thoughts during a Twitch stream.

"Overwatch is so much fun because each character has a completely unique gameplay style. It feels like you're stepping into a new game every time. Roughly speaking, your gameplay with Tracer versus Widowmaker is so different... Deadlock is mainly Dota with a bit of shooter. Overwatch is the opposite"

According to him, similar to Deadlock, Blizzard’s game combines elements of a shooter and Dota 2 but in a different balance. NS also highlighted how Overwatch impresses with its gameplay variety. He noted that matches with each hero feel so different that it’s almost like playing a separate game each time.

It’s worth mentioning that Deadlock recently received a major update, adding six new heroes and a new matchmaking mode.
