Played by tens of millions of people and touted as the world's largest esports game does not make Dota 2 friendly for beginners. To be proficient, your commitment is indispensable. Learning the basics of Dota 2 is actually not difficult, but the complex formulation in it demands the player to shed all their attention and sacrifice their time.

Indeed, Dota 2 is a multiplayer battle arena game where two teams of five people are fighting. The Game will be over after one of the two Ancient buildings (owned by you or the opponent) destroyed. There you are tasked with guiding the hero character of choice to slowly level up, collecting gold, helping the colleague, and ultimately winning the game. Sound simple, is not it? Certainly not, according to the gamers ' confession.

How to play Dota 2 Tips for Beginners

Below are tips on how to play Dota 2 that I summarize from the internet based on the explanation of the veterans to help you familiarize yourself with enjoying Dota 2.

Acknowledge that you are a beginner

No expertise without experience. If it's the first time you play Dota 2, it's just as good as your performance. You can be sure that one team's friends will complain, even removing bad words ('noob' is still relatively subtle). This will continue to match to-50 later. The solution: You don't have to respond, because replying with a cuss just tear down the team's expertise. Use chat as needed to ask for help or give info about enemies.

Know Your Character Role

Dota 2 has tons of heroes, included in several different categories: carry, support, mid, and ganker. Failing to understand the function of the characters, defeat is not far behind. Ganker is tasked with hunting and disturbing opponents. Mid play in the middle lane alone, leveling quickly, helping when there is a chance. Support functions like Courier, in charge of treating colleagues and sacrificing themselves as needed; The Carry-on role is the most difficult because it is weak in the beginning but very deadly so 'ripe.'

Understand the Town Portal Scroll, Rune, and Boot Items Functions

Often underestimated, TP Scroll at least gives you two benefits. First, it immediately takes you back to the base when the health is at a dangerous point, then TP Scroll also allows the player to perform surprise attacks.

Rune presents you with an edge in combat. It appears every two minutes. But you must always keep an eye on whether the adversary has called it first. For example, when the enemy's team character turns blue, you need to escape because the attack is twice as painful.

Boots itself is an essential item, but not the most important one. Status-Boost items are your top priority, for example, Branches, Circlets, or Gauntlets of Strength. Supposing the number of HP characters is numbered slightly, do not hesitate to buy a potion. Next is a new focus for buying boot.

Don't forget about Ward and Courier

Without wards and courier, the threat of losing is enormous. The tips, you don't need to go back to the base make it spawn. While on the lane, just right click on the courier and drop it from the storage. Now anyone on the base can spawn it for you.

Ward has a count-down and should be replaced constantly because you should always know what is happening in the river or forest. These areas are dangerous blind spots. Without it, it's a great probability for you and the team to be invaded suddenly.

Other Crucial Tips

• Don't let the hero attack the creep automatically. Direct the attack to the most approaching creep death. And do not rush to attack. Beginners usually invade the tower and just retreat after their health is critical. Imagine if the enemy came ambush.😦
• Make the tower stop attacking you. How? Immediately destroy, or right-click on your own team creep to create an illusion as if you were a member of the enemy group. The tower quickly switches its attack. This method is not a bug, but a Dota 2 feature. Similar techniques can even be applied to your own friends.
• Do not deal with enemies that are higher than your position. The reason is that the accuracy of character attacks is reduced by 25 percent, and your vision zone is much smaller.

The above list is far from complete to make you proficient at playing Dota 2, but it is quite a concern if you are indeed a real beginner in this game. Often playing, searching for information up to watch the 'recordings' of matches on YouTube are a few ways you can do to increase your playing level.

Playing Dota2 games requires reliable Internet access. This online game will not run smoothly without fast internet.😉
