DOTA, or any MOBA. I'm an old-school RTS fan and for whatever reason these games slide off me like water off a duck's back, despite being told multiple times from different folks that I'd probably like them.
I used to play LoL back in 2012 or so but got tired of not being able to play as I wanted so I left and never looked back.
Having to choose characters based on the needed role was bad enough, not being allowed to explore new builds and possibilities but what the current meta dictated was so ridiculous. I felt some vindication when a build I was exploring later turned out to be considered too powerful and got reworked (AP Yi, fuck you those who shit on me when I bought the magic ring as my first item).
