League of Legends
Lane and jungle constantly mind-game opponents.
Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
Scouting and out-guessing a human opponent's tech
Variance3 vs 3
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
League of Legends
Champion select and minor RNG only.
Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
Creep routes and item drops add randomness
Optimization8 vs 8
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
League of Legends
Itemization, wave management, and macro are solvable.
Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
Build orders, creeping routes, and matchup theory run deep
