DotA 2 trumps all. In dota you can find almost evey hero in a game, where in LoL, there are some champions that you never seem to find people play as. Also, in DotA, hero abilities are much more unique. Riki's Blink Strike is one of the few instant gap-closers in the game. In LoL, gap-closers are very common to find (for example, Talon, Jax, and just about every champion due to Flash). On the subject of Hon, Hon is almost an exact replica of DotA. If you dont believe me, look up "Tiny" from DotA/ Dota 2, and "Pebbles" from Hon. Also, the creeps more important in DotA 2. In LoL, due to the huge amounts of damage that champions deal to creeps makes last hitting very easy. Creeps in LoL deal barely an damage to you in addition. In DotA, at level 1, you can be killed by a single creep wave if targeted. So yeah.
