World of Warcraft is no longer king.
Dota 2 is now the most-played PC game in the West according to research firm DFC Intelligence. According to DFC’s PC Game Meter service, Dota 2 passed League of Legends in the first quarter of 2013 as the most played “core” title (DFC does not track casual or browser-based games).
TNS: "A League of Legends game mode, Arena, will return with some major changes that may breathe some life for a stagnant game."
ESTNN writes: "Hwei, LeBlanc and Ryze stand above the rest as the strongest players in the League of Legends 14.8 mid-lane due to substantial buffs in their scaling, base damage and crowd control (CC) respectively."

"DFC does not track casual or browser-based games"
...then why are they analyzing League of Legends?
Dota 2 is so addicting and really good game.
That is actually surprising, to me atleast. I have the game in my steam catalog but haven't played it yet. But I could say that about tons of games in my catalog.
Dota 2 and LoL are like hazardous for my health lol.
That makes them the most played games period.
