SO LATELY I'VE BEEN CAUGHT BY AN IMMENSE DRAFT OF BOREDOM.
The reason? None of my lame-ass friends are playing DotA with me anymore.
SO, I'm making an event to
MOTHERFUCKING ZEUS wrote:Educate young minds on an ever growing, quickly altering video game called DotA 2.
WELCOME, TO
GAMEOFTHROWS

basically im going to have coaching sessions for anyone who's willing to learn this hard ass game (MIND YOU IM STILL PRETTY GARBAGE AT THE GAME MYSELF)
it's free, so why the fuck wouldn't you try it out. with me. in a dark room. at midnight. (GAME IS LIKE 12 GIGS WORTH OF HATS THOUGH I THINK AND YOU NEED A DECENT PC [MEANING NOT A WIN98 WITH 32mb RAM AND SOME ANCIENT ASS PROCESSOR] YOU ALSO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE TUTORIAL BEFORE BEING ABLE TO ACTUALLY JOIN THE LOBBY BUT TRUST ME IT'S HELPFUL) also: the official site.

cOACHES (AKA THE DREAM TEAM)
________
me. (pizzaman, medusa, zeusjuice etc)
TheLordKhon (THEWARLORDKHAN)
Nientiendo (NITENDIDENDIFUCKTIENDO) (MADE A BRIEF GUIDE HERE)
Quill (tyler)

PUPILS (AKA THE WHIPPERSNAPPERS)
________
Slash (SURASHU-KUN)
Danny (THE8BITSEMICARRYPLAYER)


WHEN WILL THE LEARNING SESSIONS HAPPEN?
WE'LL AGREE ON- ahem, we'll agree on a time frame that's best for all of us when we have enough coaches/students. otherwise we can just do individual sessions depending on how many people we get.

WHY SHOULD I BOTHER?
DotA 2 is becoming one of the biggest E-sports out there right now, with an outrageously contributing community.
Don't believe me? Take a look at this.
In just over a month, the community has raised nearly 8 million in USD as a prize pool for The International 4, Valve's own DotA 2 tournament.
Why not become a part of something this big? (the hats they give are pretty neat too)
that and it gives you a chance to help save D I G I T A L S P O R T S .
oh and it's also a really neat ARTS game.
DOTA ALSO HAS THE BEST WAIFUS (see: my avatar)

WHY SHOULD YOU (ragont) BOTHER?
[strike]BITCH I AM MOTHERFUCKING BORED[/strike]
think of me as the wise, dad joke cracking, perverted ass sensei. i merely wish to teach young, ignorant and unenlightened pupils what it is to feel the flow of that which is DotA.
i also need more dota buddies.

PRECURSOR TO THE LEARNING: I recommend allowing public match data to be sent to external websites (namely DotaBuff, this makes it easier for me to track your progress, and gives you more detailed match info.
To do this:
Open Dota 2 and go to the game settings (the little gear in the top-left).
You should see these three tabs: Hotkeys, Options, Video/Audio.
Pick options, make sure that "Hide Dota & Steam Profile" is unchecked, and "Expose Public Match Data" is checked.


[some of these will probably be written lessons that you can read from here instead of hands-on gameplay)
WHAT WE WILL BE LEARNING:
BASICS:
LESSON 1: HOTKEYS AND SETTING THEM UP (MAYBE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN DOTA IMO)
LESSON 2: ATTRIBUTES AND SHIT
LESSON 3: GOLD AND EXPERIENCE, ALSO COOL ASS ITEMS TO MAKE YOUR HERO AS BALLER AS POSSIBLE
LESSON 4: HERO ROLES
LESSON 5: LAST HITTING AND DENYING


I'll add more as I go.
For now, I WANT STUDENTS.

NOTICE: you must have me friended on steam.
you know.
so that you can become my bitch and all.
nah but a steam account and having me on your friends list (who wouldnt want that though~<3?) is also required.


SO COME, AND BE THE HERO, THE CHOSEN ONE, OF D I G I T A L S P O R T S .

Wrong, I can play every MOE-BA except DotA.

I play LoL, Smite sometimes, and DotA2 occasionally.

Though, LoL DotA2 have some similiarities, they also have big differences.

LoL is vastly different in terms of actual play.
i think the only similarities are the actual map and objectives, tbh.

by the way, don't want to join but still want to support this sick ass event?
feel free to use the GIGANTIC ASS SIG CODE i created for this.
