Sure HotS-maps are fun overall,but pay2play heroes,absolute lack of gameplay-items and therefore proper hero customization, lack of proper fight control mechanics like global silence,stuns etc etc just kills any interest in HotS for me as Dota-player and im sure majority of dota2-players will agree with me.And on top of that the aestethics in HotS are horrific,Diablo or space marine on a horse? No,thanks.it serves the "fun"-purpose but at the same time it takes a big dump on established Blizzard-franchises and lore characters.It destroys the immersion and appeal of HotS for me.
The game would be more interesting if it took itself more seriously and offered more unique options than just custom modes.
And before you try to argue with "its a Blizzard"-game logic,dont forget that Dota 2 is a Valve-game.And Valve plays in the same league as Blizzard.
