defense of the Ancients.

defense of the Ancients.

hm. the annual wcg is comin' to town. let me tell u wad dota is about. for those cyber idiots out there. heh.

Its a custom-made multiplayer map for warcraft 3. its gameplay however differs significantly from the main game.
In Dota, 2 opposing bases are set at opp. corners of the game map. Each has a building known as the Ancient in its centre. The objective of the game is to destroy the other team's Ancient while defending yr own. A team consists of 5 players, who each control one hero with special abilities.
Each hero has different attibutes, such as hitpoints, intelligence and strength. They also tend to fufil different functions. Some heroes are best used in frontal melee assaults(tankers), others are suited for support functions such as healing teammates.
In the meantime, at regular intervals, the bases will produce computer-controlled troops(creeps) that will attempt to atk the opposing base and any enemy players/troops they meet along the way.

haha. sounds interesting eh. It is! some jargons in dota:
noobs- referring to players that are new to the game and often get owned.
ownage- when a particular team are leading in kills, they are said to be owning.
gl hf- "Good luck, Have fun". It is considered good mannered to wish whoever it is you are playing with good luck, and hope that they enjoy the game.
gg- "good game". Ppl normally type this when the game is about the end. For eg, when yr frozen throne(ancient) is being killed by enemy heroes while all yr teamates are dead(waiting for revival time), its a gg.
stfu- i assume everyone knows this. It often appears when someone gets killed and is called a noob. then u see 'stfu' appearing everywhere.
