What is the Dota 2 game and why did it get such a stir ?
Dota 2-MOBA game from the eminent game developer “Valve”. DOTA-stands for Defense Of The Ancient, translated from English – the protection of the ancients, actually this is the essence of the game, you control one of the 116 heroes, along with 4 of their allies, must protect their ancient (otherwise it is called the throne (Throne)) and destroy the throne of the enemy, which is also protected by 5 of the same players as you.

It would seem that there is a complex and why do people get millions of dollars in prize money?

Abilities
As higher I already mentioned in game there is 116 absolutely various heroes and every hero has as least 4 unique ability to (their call skills), the exception is to example Invoker in Arsenal which there is as much as 10 skills.

Abilities are common, most often they are 3 and 1 ultimate (its called ultimate)

Ability to share on active, and passive, active – this such ability to, which are used under you click on button, player (for example 1 a skill Wraith King’a), and passive ability to for use of which need not nothing they click, they apply themselves ( ultimativnaya ability to Wraith King’a, which allows him reborn after death in the same place through 3 of seconds).

Effects
Ability to have in having impose any effects, just effects there is about 7(listed basic):

Stun-when used on your hero forbids anything to do, for example to move or use items.

Silence-when used on your hero forbids him to use abilities.

Numbness-when used on your hero forbids him to move, but it is possible to use some skills.

Disarming-when used on your hero forbids him to attack.

Slow down-when used on your hero reduces his movement speed.

Treatment-when used on your hero restores him a certain amount of health.

Invulnerability-when used on your hero makes him immortal for a short time.

etc.

Pro ability to can be write a separate article, so not d spread, about this here.

In addition to the abilities in the game, there are items that are bought for gold, which, in turn, is extracted in the game for killing enemy heroes or units.

At the moment, the items in the game added about a hundred and each has unique properties.

Therefore, there are many combinations of characters, items. Only because DotA may seem like a very difficult game, but in fact everything is not so difficult and enough to practice for about a month to understand what a particular hero is capable of and what items are better to collect on your hero.

All heroes in DotA can be divided into several categories, I will talk about the 2 most basic:

Cor-heroes ( those heroes who will be useless at the beginning of the game and will only earn gold, but after a while will become killing machines.

Heroes support ( heroes which will help their Koram earn gold, will extremely strong without hyphenated, unlike Koram-heroes)

Lines
In the game there are 3 lines which are sent to the heroes at the beginning of the game:

Top lane – top of the line.

Mid lane-Central line.

Bot lane is the bottom line.

All of the above is only 10 % of the theory that can be given, now I will try to briefly explain how the game is built at all.

Are recruited 5 heroes, 2 hero support(support), one active KOR, which goes on and ranging with minutes 12 neck and tries to kill heroes adversary, 1 khardlayner, he is sent in a complex line, initiator or tank, his the crux of the learn as can be more experience and gold with lines, and fifth Kerry, which goes on easy line, – the crux of the which nafarmit hyphenated and through some time start kill enemy team.

Supports try to provide a comfortable standing on the line of their carry, as well as if possible to strain opponents, gangat-that is, go to other lines and try to kill the cows of the enemy teams.

Hardliner, as mentioned above should get as much experience and money from the line.

A mid player needs to play actively, to kill the enemy team.

I think for a start this is enough to just understand the essence of the game.

Many thanks for reading the article to the end, I hope you were interested.
