Medusa: The Gorgon

Well, I’m sorry for posting much about DotA but my days are revolving around playing DotA right now. Just a little story, I woke up late twenty minutes before my class started this morning since I stayed up playing DotA the night before. This game is completely addictive.

And this seems to be my new fave DotA hero. Medusa. Long range, high speed, good damage, beautiful skill, and quite good looking, too. Hahaha. And thanks to Eon who gave me some advices for the items.

For the skills, I use Split Shot and Mana Shield almost forever. Split Shot enables me to attack four units at once and I don’t even need to use my mana. And Mana Shield helps me to preserve life point and as long as I’m not attacked, it won’t consume my mana.

Mystic Snake and Stone Gaze are cool. Just click, WHOOSH! They all die. I use it when facing too many enemies.

And the items, Eon suggested me to use Sange and Yasha, Linken’s Sphere, and Phase Boots. I use them all, even with two Sange and Yasha and two Linken’s Sphere.

Hey, it’s Friday night and I have no class tomorrow. I wanna stay up with DotA again. See you.

Vol’jin: The Witch Doctor

I usually used Mangix because it’s cute but I finally realized that I couldn’t survive with cuteness. Hahaha.

Well, the real reason is I hate just watching the battle, running away from attacks, and letting my level increase. I wanna attack, too. So, I chose a hero with strength. But fighting in short range makes me get hit easily, die over and over again, then sacrifice some gold.

I consulted to Iggy and he suggested me to use heroes with the primary of intelligence. And I found Vol’jin.

I’m still kinda clumsy and confused to use skills in battle. But I’ve managed to use one Voljin’s skills, Voodoo Restoration, especially when attacking towers. Used it to preserve life point while attacking, then run away when running out of manna. Hahaha.

And in the second picture, that was stupid. I shouldn’t have use Voodoo Restoration. Ancient doesn’t attack. Hahaha.

I love Vol’jin but Ren suggested me to use Kardel. Hmm… Curious.

Playing DotA

Finally, after thinking for three years if I had to play or not, I decided to play.

I first heard about DotA when I was still in the second year of high school from Ren, a Gendounian fellow, when we had chat at YM. He asked me if I played it but I didn’t know what it was. Since then I asked any boy I met in my life, “What is DotA? What’s fun with it?”

And now I know it’s cool.

In DotA, there are two teams, Sentinel and Scourge. We’re in one of the teams. As it’s name, DotA, Defense of the Ancients, we have to protect a unit named Ancient of our team and destroy another team’s Ancient to win. We choose a hero, raise its level, and buy items. Just like that. Well, it’s easy to talk.

I’m still an amateur, though. I’m not good in such game but I’m trying to advance.
