An Interview with Visarka

Basics of DOTA

What are the basics of DOTA, I have no clue about this game, educate me.
Basics, the thing I like mostly is that it's a team game, sentinel and scourge, both teams have 5 players in each! You start the game with some hero, you can choose it from the taverns or you get it randomly (it depends on the mode) you start playing with buying items (there are several shops and some buildings where you can read scrolls with instructions what to buy) afterwards when you know what to buy and you do
You make some items and go to the lane (there are 3 lanes and also a hero can get experience in the forest with neutrals)
In the lanes you face the opponent heroes and the scourge creeps(if you are sentinel you got sentinel creeps with you) the more creeps you kill the more money you get and the more IMBA items you can buy. If you deny your opponents creeps they don't get much experience so they can't get some spells before you; usually heroes are at lanes try to harass you or just casting spells on you so that you have low Hit Points.

It's not only the thing that you play with 4 people. It's a team! so you should say when one of the opponent heroes is missing and say if you saw something strange on the map! there are 2 places in the middle of the map on the river...Where you can take power ups: invisibility, illusion, haste, double damage that can help you if you got a 5vs5 battle on hand.
There are 3 types of heroes as you should know... Based on strength agility and knowledge so you should buy items suited for them! so don't forget to find out what each item/artefact does. You win if you destroy the tree or citadel (the main building at each side) which is surrounded by 3 levels of towers which you should kill beforehand but it's really not easy! because you face the opponent team who has the same mission each hero has some specific spells, and moreover some ultimate are really good.
So you should start playing and skill will come to u after lots of games, flaming of mates if you want to be good at this game...watching replays of so-called gosu players is worth it, people can play this game as a clan war or just typical custom game...usually it lasts 30 minutes- 1 hour and 30 minutes..it depends if the players are good or if the heroes are the ones who are not strong at the beginning but rocks after 'farming' in forest late game.
