One of the things you can do in MOTA now is turn off the music. That way you would only hear the sounds of the game and that might help you a little.

That is, with certain games, I have to mod them in order to play them. That is, with my hearing problems, sometimes I need to silence a crowd or turn up a beep sound. Sometimes I have to turn down music in a menu where many developers seem to forget to allow it to be turned down or off. I'm not trying to argue against the prevention of modding, just wanted to throw that out there for people to know about.
