An Epic Battle p.2 (Sept 17)

Posted in VIdeo & ComPuter GameZ with tags , on September 18, 2008 by eurytrophy8447

Wahh.. We had a not so good battle for me last night. ‘Di ko rin iisiping mananalo kami kagabi dahil sa kawalan ng teamwork and coordination. Eventhough full packed talaga ang heroes namin. Nagkataon lang na di kabisado ng ibang kasama ko yung allocated hero nila since -arsp ang mode namin.  Yah, yah, natalo kami kagabi. But it’s a nice game though, 55 mins at least natapos ang laban. Pinahirapan din namin sila kahit papaano. Hehe.

So, this is the match-up.

My team, scourge:  Sven the Rouge Knight , Razor the Lightning Reverant , Rikimaru the Stealth Assasin , Tiny the Stone Giant , Ish`kafel the Dark Seer. VS. the sentinel: Rhasta the Shadow Shaman , Shendelzare Silkwood the Vengeful Spirit , Knight Davion the Dragon Knight , Anub`seran the Nerubian Weaver , Dirge the Undying

—–  VS. —–

Come to think of it, advantage namin yung invinsibility ni Riki, stunners pa sila Tiny at Sven, may Int typ supporter kami, Ish`kafel. Nuker pa namin si Razor. However, talo kami sa push (because of Rhasta and Dirge’s skills), talo rin kami sa clash since may stunners din sila, Davion at Venge, with the help of Weaver bilang nuker nila. Multiple hits pa ang Forked Lightning at Serpent Wards ni Rhasta, Makunat pa si Knight Davion, panggulo ang zombies ni Dirge with good support of Venge and Weaver. Wala kami nakain talaga.

Sala kasi e. ‘Di ko na maalala ng maayos yung mga happenings since talo naman kami, paulit-ulit nakikill, mabilis na-push, talo sa item build at above all that sa mga players itself. ’Di ko kayang talunin sila Vhoiks at Jakcass, lalo na magkasama pa sila sa isang team. HAHAHA

Pweh, I’m outta here.

An Epic Battle pt.1 (Sept 15)

Araw-araw nagdodota kami. Tama, DotA. Kahit paulit-ulit di ka magsasawa. Nakakaadik talaga yung laro. Madalas panalo (Ayaw namang makipagpustahan. :D). Nagbigay na nga ako ng basic guide sa DotA e sa sobrang kaadikan. Ampanget ng araw kapag hindi ako nakakapagdota. Naisigit ko pa ang pagsusulat sa blog, OJT sa umaga hanggang pumasok sa klase ng gabi, maliban pa sa paggawa ng mga theses at reports kaya masasabi kong busy akong tao.

Ok lang yun. Maganda naman ang laro namin, panalo una. Yung pangalawang laro ang sala. Sayang nga lang at wala akong nakuhang screen shots (Bawal gumamit ng USB sa computer shop na nilaruan namin).

First Match: Ang ganda ng game ko dito! (Scourge) Furion the Prophet , Lion the Demon Witch , Barathrum the Spiritbreaker (ako ang may gamit) VS. (Sentinel) Kardel Sharpeye the Dwarven Sniper , Lesale Deathbringer the Venomancer , Rotund’jere the Necrolyte.

VS

Less than 30 mins RM’ed na ung laro. Ako ang nkapag-first blood, isang beses lang ako na-kill. Nakabili lang ako ng PT, Domi, Reaver at mga minor items na yung iba. Pero nadala ako ng mga kasama ko kaya maganda ang takbo ng laro namin.

Second Match: Dun na natalo! ang team namin, (Scourge) Rigwarl the Bristleback , Vol’jin the Witch Doctor(ako ang player) , Atropos the Bane Elemental Vs. (Sentinel) Aggron Stonebreaker the Ogre Magi , Visage the Necro’lic , Jakiro the Twin-head Dragon

VS

Saglit din lang yung game. Ang kunat kasi ng build kila Ogre at Jakiro, wala kaming instant damage skills puro per second ang damage kaya talagang kontra. Dagon3, Perse, Ulti Orb at BoS lang ang items ko. Tsk Tsk… wala kaming nakain don. Alam ko, 35 mins or less natapos agad yung game. Yet we never gave up, up to the last second.  Di uso ang term na RM. Anu ba meaning nun?.. Sa GG Client ko lang nakuha yung term, ibig sabihin -to finish the game in instant by quitting of all players and recreate another game.

So ayun.  Ngak!

The Battle for the GODLIKE Might!

Double Kill! Triple Kill! Killing Spree!.. Familiar huh? DotA fanatic? Well I play DotA Allstars or Defense of the Ancients for quite a time and me myself was very fascinated with the whole custom map to the great Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne through the Blizzard Map Editor now developed and maintained by IceFrog and his fellow development team (you all rock!) as far as I know.

 

Well who’s do not know DotA by the way?! Hmm..this may sound cheezy, however, let me inform you the basics (for the others sake! you bulls***).

Every player (you) can pick to either Sentinel or Scourge base before the game begin (except if the game mode -sp is initiated). At the start of the game proper, Game Modes can be initiated for visual/sound effects, hero picking options, battle mode changes and more. Here are some of the game modes WE usually use that can be typed before the game.

Primary Game Modes (Only useable by the game host.)

  • -ap(allpick) Everyone may pick heroes from any tavern
  • -ar(allrandom) Every player gets a random hero from any tavern
  • -sd (singledratft) Every player will be randomly given 3 different heroes, 1 Str type, 1 Agi type and 1 Int type to choose from.

 Secondary Game Modes (Only useable by the game host.)

  • -dm (Deathmatch) – if you die you will pick a new hero once you can respawn.
  • -sc (Supercreeps) – a super creep may spawn for each side and follow the normal creeps in either lane
  • -np (No Powerups) – no runes will spawn.
  • -sp (Shuffle Players) – the teams will be randomly shuffled, includes your color and team you are on.
  • -ai / aa / as (All Int / All Agi/ All Str) – Only Int or Agi or Str type heroes can be chosen respectively. 

What is a hero? A Hero is a unit that were brought under your control in order to accomplish your mission (to defend the ancients that’s why it’s Defense of the Ancients!!) together with the assigned creeps per base. A hero can be selected when player (you) starts the game through the Hero Taverns that located at the bottom left of your base if you’re a Sentinel side (Morning Tavern, Light Tavern, Dawn Tavern, Sunrise Tavern) and as for the Scourge player, the taverns are located at the top right corner of your base (Evening Tavern, Dark Tavern, Dusk Tavern, Midnight Tavern).

Now, every hero has its three common stats attribute. Those were Strength, Agility and my favorite stat Intelligence. Pretty cool huh?, the hero now has its Primary Attribute as the source of their Attack Power. Every stat attribute contributes to the wholeness of a hero. Strength provides the increment of the hero’s Hit Points (HP) as well as its regeneration rate. Agility on the other hand, is the one that which increases the Attack Speed and the Armor of the hero. While my favorite Intelligence stat is the one which gives Mana Points (MP) and which increases its regeneration rate. Every stat added to the hero through skills or from the purchased items will adopt to the hero and automatically increases its assigned contribution.

Speaking of items, Items are used to develop a chosen hero by means of its offensive effects, additional stats, increasing speeds (movement, attack speed, HP/MP regen rate), aura giving effects and defense boosting items. “Azteeg” right?! Items can be bought on your own side of your base by means of Gold. DON’T WORRY!..There are few ways to earn gold in this game. Killing opponent heroes, the opponent creeps in each lane and the Neutral Creeps also gives gold and the normal gold allocation every player 1 gold per 0.8 – 0.95 seconds as far as I know.

Naaahhh…I’m already get tired jotting down this crap! Apologies if there are some mistakes above, this is my own blog anyways! HAHA..I’ll continue some other day discussing DotA basics. Just enjoy your DotA AllStars gaming!
