CMV: Riot is an unoriginal developer and simply copies other game dev’s ideas

League of Legends is a copy of Dota, Valorant is a mashup copy of CSGO and Overwatch (which is a copy of TF2), TFT is a copy of Autochess, Legends of Runeterra is a copy of Hearthstone. Riot is a shameless copycat, akin to so many Chinese companies that rip off western products/ideas. They barely even try to hide it in some instances such as Nashor, which is just one character swap away from being the reverse spelling of Dota’s Roshan. I understand that many games these days draw heavy inspiration from others, but Riot is 4/4 in drawing maybe a little too heavy of inspiration.

A: Legends of Runeterra is very, very different than Hearthstone. They're both digital card games, but they play out very differently in terms  of when you can interact and how.

B: Making a game in a similar genre to others is not uncommon, unoriginal, or copycat. To argue things like Overwatch is a copy of TF2 is kind of just admitting there are no original ideas at all; everything is a "copy" of some game that strongly influenced it before.

C: Yes, Nashor is similar to Roshan. That's what's called a *reference*. League of Legends was made as a standalone game since DotA was a Warcraft III mod; the fact the developers acknowledged the influence isn't shocking at all.
