To be clear, I'm not talking about a complete removal of random elements equalling a well balanced game. The same goes for the high ground advantage in DOTA. It does things like give the defender an advantage, it puts importance on positional play when taking the map, etc. It gives a positional advantage to one player over the other, it is not the product of imbalance within the game design. This is a form of balance, not randomness though. In Brood War there is a 30% less chance of being hit if you are on the high ground.

"You see that the match is winter, so you think, 'Alright, I was going to go heavy infantry, but maybe I'm going to go more mechanized.' Or vice versa. Watts said winter effects make CoH2 a different type of game, and that playing between summer and winter will force different strategies. If they don't have a contingency, they aren't a great player. If a blizzard blows in, they should be ready to adapt to that. "If they're a great player, it shouldn't be just about having one build order.
"Tactical RTS is about being a smart commander and making smart decisions on the fly," communication manager Simon Watts told Shacknews at a recent multiplayer event. Braving the elements in a bone-chilling Russian winter will force players to approach online multiplayer in a new way.
The biggest addition to Relic Entertainment's Company of Heroes 2 has to be winter.
