Defense of the Ancients



The online wikipedia defines Defense of the Ancients (DotA) as ‘a team strategy game that focused on hero combat whose purpose is to destroy the opponent’s base using the player’s picked hero along with allied heroes and allied AI controlled fighters that called ‘creeps’’. DotA pits two teams of players against each other. However, DotA not only focused on hero combat but also focused on how the players develop their hero to be unbeatable using the various equipments for defending the base if the opponents attack. The player’s hero is leveled up by killing both of opponent’s heroes and creeps and uses the obtained gold to buy equipments in an effort to own the game so that the opponent’s base can be destroy. Each team has a base that guarded by various towers from the weakest tower to the strongest one. The heart of team base called ‘Ancient’, that guarded by the strongest towers, must be destroyed in order to win the game. Therefore this game is called Defense of the Ancients.
