Dota 2 is a multiplayer online battle arena video game and the stand-alone sequel to the Defense of the Ancients (DotA) mod. With regular updates that ensure a constant evolution of gameplay, features, and heroes, Dota 2 has taken on a life of its own.
Each match of Dota 2 involves two teams, both containing five players and occupying a fortified stronghold at either end of the map. Victory is achieved by destroying the enemy's Ancient, a building that is invulnerable until certain objectives are achieved. Each player controls a "Hero" character and focuses on leveling up, acquiring items and fighting against the other team to achieve victory during each match. The previous match has no connection with the next match. All heroes are playable as in you do not have to "purchase/unlock" heroes to play them. The game development team try their best at balancing the heroes so that all heroes can be played in any match

Good game but very harsh behavior score system
If you told me when I started playing dota 2 at 18 years old that I would be reviewing this game after 8 years and 13'000 hours, I would have laughed at you. Let me put that into perspective: 541 Days and 16 Hours. Of dota 2. I'm almost 26 now, and I don't really know what to think of this game. This game has had a large impact on my life. I was "addicted" to the experience, in ranked and matchmaking. I've learned a lot about myself and others. I've learned a lot about staying in charge of my emotions. I've also learned that emotions can easily lose you a game before its come to its conclusion. I've learned how to react instinctively to changing pixel colours. But I've also relatively learned nothing. Not to depress anyone reading this, but when I put all of this into perspective, thinking about what could have been, I could easily imagine how much better my life would be if I never
After 5000 hours I realized that there were not 9 idiots in each match, but 10.
This community is so nice i got a lot of tips on how to uninstall the game and what to do with myself!
There is nothing tidy about a great Dota match. It’s a plan written in pencil while the table shakes. You queue for one game before bed and somehow you’re counting Roshan minutes at two in the morning, telling yourself that one good smoke can still turn it. My favorite memory isn’t a rampage or a rapier flip. It’s the quiet after we botched a mid fight, when our offlaner typed “my bad,” pinged a smoke, and cut through the triangle without another word. We wrapped around, took vision, found a single pick, and the whole map felt different. That’s the Dota I love: it breaks you down and then hands you the tools to rebuild if you keep your head. The design feels honest in a way competitive games rarely do. Every advantage has a window you can actually spot. Every mistake leaves a footprint you can learn from. Neutral items nudge priorities without erasing identity. Buybacks are terrifying,
This isn't a free game. Each match cost you a bit of your sanity until you have nothing left.
