Last week I talked about the general principle in effective skill point distribution. I also gave our readers some homework to do: Try and make the most optimal build for Nerubian Weaver or Madman. I apologize since the question itself has a lot of gray area. I completely understand that the builds can change depending on match ups and overall game flow. Nothing is ever absolute. There are always alternatives. However, I was trying to simplify the task.
Thank you for all those that particip… More

When a pros play a hero in a league, they have optimized that hero to the core. Item build, skill build and general animation the hero makes. Everything is accounted for. I will be touching on the effective skill point distribution in this entry. It's quite an effort to level up in DotA, and you always want to have the maximum value for your point spent. One of the first question you should have of the hero is this: Can this hero afford a stat build? If so, is it worth it?
Note: To me, ski… More

I remember reading a while back in the Dota-Allstars forums about the different stereotypes for people who play and I thought It would be pretty fun to revisit it for those who read about it and to keep it alive for those who havn't. However, I'll be adding my own personalities from HoN that I've observed; feel free to comment on some of the ones you've seen.

My psychology professor stated that people spending hours on the net sharing their thoughts via blogging, twitter and whatnot seem all like an act of insecurity of oneself. Ever since that class, that idea had been stuck on my mind. Am I writing all this about myself because of I'm insecure? It didn't take me a long time to conclude with the answer, "no". While the possibilities are there (as there always are), I think it really just comes down to the fact that it's my day to write and I hav… More

Future of DotA? DotA has come a long way since its rough form in Starcraft as Aeon of Strife. It has then transformed into the first rough shapes of DotA in WC3. Eul eventually gave up the project and let others work on it. There were many versions of DotA, but DotA Allstars is the version that really made into the mainstream of RTS gaming. It became so successful, it made a genre of its own*. In some really odd, nerdy way, it's cool that I have witnessed the very development of a video game… More

     vs       Puppey vs Axypa @ Dota PrideReplay Here A lot of great players in this game, with Kuroky playing a spectacular SF and Misery impressive as always on PotM. A word of warning: the game is REALLY long, well exceeding an hour. So if you a short attention span, you may want to pass, but otherwise this is a very long, satisfying game.    vs      Aeon vs  Trust @ Razer Asian Dota Championship '09Replay Here Asian Dot… More

In this series of articles I plan to write about the influence that time has in DotA and how to distort it and manipulate it into giving yourself an advantage. Thankfully for us time in DotA is one dimensional and moves at a constant speed … More
