And how much money do I need to spend on LoL to get the full game?
$0.
That's the best part about it. It an awesome FTP model. Some who dose t pay can be just as good as someone who does. Iv spent $30 because it a fun game and they deserve some cash for it
0$ is not the full game. Wasting 3 years of your life to get the full game is what you must dedicate. That you consider yourself full by playing a few heroes is irrelevant.
3 years of constant development of the game and monthly additional champions, a soon to be released second mode (Dominion) and added servers for better latency (very recently they added new servers and split them to support more people without queues). Good deal. There is a store version of LoL (around 20 euro where I live) that includes around 25 champions.
On topic, however, I watched a couple games of Dota 2 on the live stream. I can't say I really liked what I saw. The graphics are quite lifeless and without a style of their own. The original Dota was styled around Warcraft and while Dota wants to make it look "Like it", they didn't really succeed. Animations are quite weird too. I won't talk about balance cause it's very tough to do it right without releasing the game and checking the suggestions from the players.
