Few eSports fans know exactly how the iconic Dota2 appeared. It turns out that back in 2019, Valve representatives saw a custom map for Warcraft 3 called DotA. One of its creators later contacted the company and offered to develop not just a local map, but a full-fledged game. Several years of uninterrupted work led to the fact that gamers from all over the world in 2013 saw the release of the project Dota 2. In fact, within a few months, this game became more in demand and relevant than its closest competitors among the cybersports disciplines. 

To date, an important role in the gameplay of Dota2 play an in-game items. Almost every player wants to stand out in some way. It should be noted that such items have no effect on the strength of the hero, they are rather a cosmetic effect and make the game more exciting. Also, the Steam platform and specialized resources provide an opportunity to sell Dota2 Items. Trading allows you to receive a profit. Subsequently, it can be spent on the purchase of new skins, or withdraw the money to the card, if the gamer has chosen special sites.

If you talk to experienced users, almost all of them will say that this game is not for stupid people. To achieve real results here, you need to learn a lot of tricks and use them effectively in the process. Also, you must be prepared for the fact that your partners and opponents may show aggression, thereby bringing you to emotion. If a person is not prepared to adequately respond to provocation, then his chances of success are minimal.

What do I need to know about Dota 2? The basic theses are listed below:

1. It’s a strategy game in real time, where each user can use only his character.
2. The game involves two teams of five people. The main task is to destroy the opponents’ fortress. The duration of a single match can be either 15 minutes or 2 hours. It all depends on the balance of power.
3. Throughout the map, players are pumping their heroes, trying to get an advantage over their rivals.
4. Nominally, the teams are called the Forces of Light and the Forces of Darkness. Initially, before the start of the match, they do not have an actual advantage over each other. However, already at the stage of choosing the heroes one of the teams can get an advantage. Among professional teams this stage is very important, because with the right analysis of the opponent, you can choose the perfect option, thereby weakening the opponent.
5. The location where the battle takes place is divided into two almost identical halves. They belong to each side. Three lines lead to the base of the teams: the top, middle and bottom.
6. Victory goes to the side that first destroys the opponent’s throne. This requires the elimination of two towers that are in close proximity to the throne. Also, do not forget about those towers that are located on the lines. In order for the final task to be completed, you need to clear a path along one line.

Unlike most other games, Dota2 has a large entry threshold. To feel comfortable, the user must have played at least 1000 hours. For the victory in the match the player receives mmr. These points are needed for the game selection system to find players that are ideally suited for a particular average level of the match. If your mmr rating is higher than 6000, you will probably get noticed by professional teams. Millions of users from all over the world strive for this today. However, the real result of them achieving only a few. After all, in fact, professionals on Dota 2 can be called no more than 1000 gamers. Along with the popularization of the game their number is increasing.
