DOTA players say dota is harder because u can deny creeps, something LOL doesnt have
In LOL, since you cant deny creeps, the only way to stop opponent from farming is to force them out of the lane by constantly harassing them.
So its up to individual to determine which is harder / requires more skill.
DOTA: hiding under the tower and safely deny creeps to stop opponent from XPing
LOL : No creep denying, so only way to stop opponent from XPing is to fight them and force them out of lane
Still got a lot of things that makes dota more complicated, just for discussion purposes.
Smoke ganks, more varied laning strategies, greater number of heroes, very varied colddowns for spells (ultimates can have anything from 2 sec cooddown to 120 sec cooldown in dota), greater number of items. This game is built to make it more chaotic and exciting to play and watch.
Perfect example is rubric and invoker and pitlord in the future... This epitomises the gamemaker goal of making the game more unpredictable.
