Is DOTA that bad?

DOTA, or Defense of the Ancients, is a spin-off the computer real-time strategy (RTS) game WarCraft3. It took on popularity in Malaysia, and is still being played in the local cybercafes, just like how CounterStrike (CS), seemed too stubborn to budge from the local gaming scene. As a result, there have been a lot of condemnation about DOTA players in Malaysia, but, is DOTA really that bad when we have good players...and they even learn stuff from it? Well...some stuff...
