DotA Ganking Styles

Ganking, ranked 4th place in 8 Essentials in Winning DotA Games, is one of the most important tool in winning DotA Games. Thus, there are different ganking styles that will make you sneaky and unpredictable. It is important that you have proper coordination with your team mates if you are going for ganks. Pro players are too careful that they don't often die from getting ganged up. Observer wards are too cheap and placing them in ganking areas is the best counter for Ganks. So, a variety of ganking style is recommended for being unpredictable.



1. Backstabbing

The most basic ganking style is backstabbing. It's when you hide in fogs and appear behind enemies while they are farming. This is done well if you have perfect timing of using skills and I recommend to have a gank mate because sole gankers cannot assure kills. Having disables like stun and slow makes it easier to kill heroes. This is the reason why gankers usually have this kind of skills. Beware because this type of ganking is easily countered by observer wards. Study your prey. Know if they have wards basing from the prey's actions. If they usually stay farming and then retreat totally when you got near them, most likely they have wards.

2. Trapping

Trapping is a kind of ganking where as you stay on the opponents retreating area and stun/slow them to death. An example is ganking mid lane. One ganker would appear behind the prey to disable him. A good player wont retreat directly to the tower because the ganker can have more normal attacks on him and end up having a cheap death. Thus, the ganker will retreat going the other way. In this case, upwards, where the 2 heroes can't attack him. Now, here comes another ganker to finish him off. Another good use of trapping is when you gank heroes with escape mechanisms, like leap of Mirana, waveform of Morphling, Blink of Akasha, Orb of Puck, Sucuchi of Nerubian Weaver, etc. Good prediction will make it easy for you to gank these heroes by trapping.

3. Go and Teleport

This is done by making the allied heroes on the lane use their disables to make the opponents stay near while you are teleporting to gank. An example for mid lane would be having a Storm Spirit use his electric vortex on his opponent while you are teleporting at his tower. You can use your disables after teleporting to aid the Storm Spirit kill the prey. Be sure to do this with good timing. Disabling the opponent hero too early would make the ganker waste gold for tp because the prey would be gone when he arrived. There are limited heroes at mid which you can use this ganking style. The heroes with perfect disables, like Puck, Raijin, Rexxar, Bane Elemental, Viper, are the one suited with the Go and Teleport at mid lane. When it comes to the trilane this can be executed easier. Most heroes at trilane have disables thus making it easier to have the opponentes stay near the tower when the ganker arrived from teleporting.

4. Charge!!!
This ganking style is named charge because this is a ganking style where you run towards your opponent infront of him. This can be executed at night time the vision of the opponent is smaller thus making it possible to gank him by charging. This requires quickness of both your hero and your hands. Good players with fast reactions will retreat after seeing one hero charging towards him. Appear from fog then disable him at once to make fleeing from you not possible.

5. Teleport and Go

Furion, spectre and wisp are the only heroes that can do this. Teleport from opponent's blind spot then gang him up. In spectre's case you, there is no need for blind spot for he teleports directly beside his prey. Spectre is not a ganker but can be used to gank sometimes, particularly if he already is farmed up.

6. Swap and Bam

Vengeful Spirit reaching level 6 can have a special style of ganking with his swap. You can walk infront of your opponent where it is fog then swap-stun him to set a kill for your allied hero.

7. Invisibility

Invisibility have great advantage in ganking. You can be sneaky without having to consider the fog of war. Getting into good position, you can whack the opponents by surprise. May it be invisibility from rune, invisibility skills(windwalk, moonlight shadow), or lothars edge, you can gank opponents easily if they don't have true sight vision.

8. Blink and Go

Blink is like invisibility too where you can appear beside opponents in an instant though blink still needs to consider fog of war. Heroes with disable can use blink to stun/slow a prey so allied heroes can charge towards the prey for dinner.

9. Bait

Bait is one of my favorite ganking style where you can wipe out 3 heroes in no time. One hero, a carry would be better, will be creeping while the gankers will wait hidden in fogs. When 2 or 3 opponents come to gank the bait, they will be stuck in one place because they are going for the kill. Now, you're going to execute your plan and kill the gankers. I, sometimes, call this ganking the gankers.

8 Essentials in Winning DotA Games

There are a lot of factors that help you win DotA games. This is the reason of its excitement and suspense. After every DotA game there are just too much to talk about. But the most discussed is how the team won or lost. Among all of these things that made them won the game, what are the most important factors to be able to win Competitive DotA Games? Here they are ranked according to importance...




8th: AOE Spell Casters

AOE spell casters are the heroes that can damage enemy within an area of effect making it possible for you to damage maximum of 5 opponents in one spell. Some of these heroes are Shadow Fiend(raze, requiem), Kunkka(torrent, splash, ghost ship), Earthshaker(all his skills), Pugna(Blast, Ward). AOE spells make it easier for the team to kill all the enemy faster, particularly in team fights. 1 blow of good AOE can make the opponents running back for their lives, especially if they don't have healing items or skills.


7th: Enough Disables

It is essential to have stunner, slower or other heroes that can hold opponents to one place. It is easier to kill an opponent if he's stationary rather than moving. DotA would be a funny game if the only way to kill an opponent while chasing him like Tom and Jerry. Stunners give you advantage of being safe from towers and back-up opponents. When I was just starting to have my own team, I, honestly, relied on stunners. We won games from better team than us because of having mass disables. But, I'm not conveying that you should do the same thing because stunners are easily countered today. Enemy heroes using black king bar make this disable strategy useless.

6th: Mind setting

Having proper mind set is having the right attitude towards the game. It is important to trust your team mates, specially your Captain. You should not be emotional in this game because you're going to end up ruining your game and lose. Anger makes you aggressive. Fear makes you passive. Doubt makes you work on your own. Impatience makes you die. Not having the mood to play makes you think less. These are some traits you should free your mind from to attain your best potential in games. For more mind setting help check out the 7 Habits Of Highly Effective DotA Players.

5th: Fast Farm

Having a fast farmer player contributes to winning too. This makes the opponent move more to try to gank that hero. Thus, you can use him to bait these enemy players to have more kills. Fast farmer player also serves as an insurance in case you reach late game. He can carry the whole team to victory having his hero fully equipped with damage and tanking items.  Learn more at Dota Guide: How to Farm Fast.

4th: Successful Ganks

This is more important than having a fast farmer player because great gankers have the ability to delay your farming and have extra gold for their team. Getting killed makes you lose gold and time to creep. They may have slow farmers but they could farm more if they have good gankers to help them.  Here's a Dota Guide: Ganking Lessons Article.

3rd: Map Control

I always play support role because I know how important map control is. The team can farm well having this. Proper ward placing and having the ability to deward the other team is like playing boxing against a blind guy. Map control makes you decide quicker seeing the plan of the opponent. You'll be ready whatever their plan is and make it easy for your team to win.

2nd: Better Leader

Leaders serve a very important role in this game. The game often depend on the team leader's knowledge. First role a leader will play here is hero picking. Most of the games today depends on hero picks. Getting outpicked will make it harder for the team to kill, to push and to win the game. 2nd role of the leader is motivating the team. If the leader is trembling in fear, would he motivate his team? Leaders should possess the right attitude and give his team mates what they need, specially confidence. 3rd role, is giving commands. The team should know what to do next and leaders are responsible for them to know this. If not, they will act without coordination and make the opponents take advantage of this.   Learn more at the Hero Picking Dota Guide Article.

1st: Better Team Play

The team with better strategy and execution will always have the control of the game. The players in this team moves like brothers. Team Play boosts the individual strengths for every weakness of one hero is complimented by the other heroes. I don't fear anything in DotA but if I'm going to choose one thing I'm going to watch out for is not the individual skills of players, like farming, but it's the players' ability to work as one.

Bottle-Crow DotA Strategy Review

Dota in the Philippines is widely known for Bottle-Crow Strategy. It is having your crow go back and forth at the fountain with your Bottle for refill. It seems clever if you want to stay on your lane more and have more mana for harassing your opponent. But, why this strategy never succeed against Chinese?

1. Mr. Crow is busy. Crow is needed by the whole team. Other lanes may need a flask or a clarity or they may have farmed their basic items giving them more advantage in lane fights, and crow needs time to deliver these items. Against professional players, if they see slight advantage over you they are going to plan and execute an attack to destroy you totally. Not having important items like magic stick, urn, bracers, etc, while the opponents on your lane already have means your in a big disadvantage.

2. Waste of Gold. You may say that if the crow is busy, why not buy another crow for mid hero? The reason why I won't do that is because another crow would cost you 400 gold. 2 Crows is not important in mid and late game, where team fights and ganks/gangs are constantly happening. You cannot use bottle crow in clash, it's either you kill them or you die. After winning team fights, it is a good idea to push near towers because of advantage and not to farm and use bottle crow.

3. Lane disadvantage for supports. You may say that supports can buy crow for you since they don't need to farm luxury items. Then, you will have your supports buy 2 chicks 1 observer wards early game. One support wont have any stat or regen items, but, wisely you'll buy regen items instead of stats. So, he will only have around 400hp. Supports won't be advised to last hit creeps a lot, they have to wait for 200 seconds to buy one crow and another 200 seconds to buy another crow. If the supports farm, the carry on the lane will be delayed, thus, making the opponent's carry have advantage over them. After 400 seconds and the supports successfully boght the 2 crows, the opponents who happened to only have one crow, will have their core items and ready to finish you off at your lane in no time.

4. Rune > Refill. Good Players know when to use skills to push a mid lane for the opponent to have a busy life defending the lane while you go for runes. Having runes gives you more advantage at mid. If you have a regen, you can harass him until he make a trip to the fountain. If you have illusions you can bait him with one illusion and gank other lanes or simply use these illusions to have advantage at farming. If you have double damage rune, you can harass him or outfarmed him. Haste can help you kill him or gank other lanes for another team advantage. Instead of refilling, battle for the runes.

5. Farm over you, Leave you or Gank you. There is no need to fear laning with bottle-crow players. There are 3 choices in dealing with these type of players. 1 counter is to farm over him. Farm... Don't harass.. Farm.. He will feel like a jackass having bottle crow but he can't use it because he has full hp. He will resort to spamming skills, which gives you a great advantage. You will be harder to get ganged up because you're tower hugging because of his bad move. 2nd counter to Bottle-Crow is Leave him. Gank other lanes after getting some levels and dominate other lanes. You can get even richer than him after successfully killing other heroes and getting towers. Spending 400 gold from crow is now a mega fail move for that team. 3rd option is to gank him. One reason of chinese players why they don't get ganged up easily at mid is because they love to move a lot. Having bottle crow makes you predictable. Gankers will know that you are somewhere beside your tower. Good gankers will make your bottle-crow strategy cry.

DotA Top 10 Fastest Pusher Heroes

   
One of the most important thing in DotA is Pushing Towers. Without this winning is not possible.  There are DotA Push Strategy which includes healer and summoner DotA heroes.  We also need a AOE spells to get rid of enemy creeps distracting our allied creeps.  A lot of heroes have the ability to push towers quickly but which are the fastest.  This will show you the top 10 fastest pusher heroes in DotA.  Before I give you the ranking, there are limitations in this ranking.  The heroes will all be level 16 having all skills maxed, heroes wont have any items, there are no enemy creep distracting allied creeps, cooldown of skills are considered and there are no defending enemy hero.

Now, I'll give you the fastest pusher heroes in DotA.


Top 10
Goblin Techies - Squee and Spleen (39 seconds)

 

The spell with the highest instant damage in DotA is the land mine by Techies.  It has 600 damage at level 4 on creeps and heroes; 300 damage on towers.  First towers have 1300hp.  Techies can destroy a tower with four land mines and 2 or 3 hits by him or allied creeps.  Without spell cool down he would be considered the fastest pusher, who can destroy a tower in 8 seconds.  Now, considering the cool down of the land mine which is 12 seconds, Techies can push a tower in 39 seconds considering that he and the allied creeps are hitting the tower every cool down time of land mines.


Top 9
Prophet - Furion (32 seconds)

Furion, using his skill - force of nature, is considered to be the top 9 fastest tower destroyer in DotA.  He has a high base damage but his summons only have 21-23 damage.  He can summon 5 trents that will give around 100 damage per attack on towers.  In real games, he would be a great pusher having his other skills teleportation and wrath of nature.

Top 8
Black Arachnia - Broodmother (25 secs)

Broodmother can summon 4 Spiderlings by using his first skill - Spawn Spiderlings.  Pushing with only 4 spiderlings doesn't make broodmother a fast pusher hero.  The best way is to summon another set of spiderlings making it 8.  Pushing with 8 spiderlings can destroy a tower in 15 seconds.  But considering the cooldown(10 seconds) of the skill to be able to summon 2 sets of spiderlings, makes it 25 seconds.

Top 7
Oblivion - Pugna (22 seconds)

This is one of the feared pusher in the game - Pugna. Aside from his excellent pushing ability, he also has great abilities for team fights and survival, that is why he is often banned.  Considering the cool down of Nether Blast which is 5.5.  He can destroy a tower with 4 blasts and hitting the tower while waiting for another blast.  The 4th blast would be the finishing blast making him destroy the tower in 22 seconds.

Top 6
Enigma - Darchrow (18 seconds)

Enigma, using his Demonic Conversion skill, can summon 3 Eilodons.  These 3 Eilodons with Enigma and Creeps can destroy a tower in 20 seconds, but using an alternative and make these Eilodons hit enemy creeps first making it 6 Eilodons have better result.  Using them to make 6 hits on creeps takes 8 seconds.  Now, having 6 Eilodons, Enigma and creeps can destroy a tower in 10 seconds.  Considering the time to have 6 Eilodons gives Enigma a total of 18 seconds to destroy a tower.

Top 5
Pandaren Brewmaster - Mangix (17 secs)

Mangix, level 16 without aganims, is a great pusher.  3 Mighty pandas with creeps destroys a tower in 17 seconds.

Top 4
Lycanthrope - Banehallow (14 seconds)

Almost all of the skills of Banehallow contribute to pushing.  He has dogs that have piercing damage on towers, howl that adds damage, feral impulse adds damage and attack speed, and phase shift gives him attack speed increase.  Using all of this skills in pushing a tower destroys the tower in around 14 seconds.

Top 3
Tormented Soul - Leshrac (12 seconds)

Leshrac's Diabolic Edict is a skill that makes 32 explosions with 50 damage each explosion having a total of 1600.  Leshrac's Diabolic, with creeps make the tower burning in 8 seconds.  At this point, the Diabolic will be turned off.  It'll take extra 4 seconds to destroy the tower completely having a total of 12 seconds.

Top 2 
Shadow Shaman - Rhasta  (10 seconds)

The Ultimate Skill of Rhasta is the top 2 tower destroyer.  Even without Aganims, these deadly wards, along with rhasta and creeps hitting the tower, destroys a tower in 10 seconds.

Top 1
Death Prophet - Krobelus (9 seconds)

The Ghosts summoned by Krobelus is the Best Tower Destroyer making Krobelus the fastest pusher with these limitations.  In games, she is still considered a great pusher because of her AOE nuke - Carrion Swarm.  Exorcism, improved by witchcraft,  focused on a tower totally destroys a tower in 9 seconds.

7 Habits of Highly Effective Dota Players

Successful Dota players have one thing in common, it is having good Dota habits.

I have played with several types of Dota Players, I have watched several professional Dota Players, and I have observed how and why these players win or lose most of the time. Some players will say that they have done everything they could but they still fail.  Some players don't practice that much but they are much useful than those who play almost everyday.  Some players boast that he plays 20 games/day and he has level 50 Garena account, but after playing with him, you would think that he may just be playing 20 games of snakes and ladders per day.  The amount of games you play per day can contribute to your improvement but it is not an assurance, specially if you quit after being the first blood and count it as 1 game.  There are several DotA guides and tips on controlling your hero but what is more important is your attitude toward the game.  So, how can players be so effective?

Legendary 820

1. Conceptualize


How many times have you said, "sorry, i thought he was alone."?  You got killed by 5 enemies because you tried to kill a worm but it happened to be a bait.  Unless you can kill him in a second and you can escape safely, it would be fine.  But, in reality, you are not playing in 'whosyourdaddy' mode.  You have to conceptualize or you have to visualize things happening in your mind before it actually happen.  Conceptualizing wont make players die often because of a bait.  They would look at the map and after realizing that there is only one opponent displaying himself, they would make an assumption that the other heroes might be hiding through the fog.  This assumption makes him don't wanna touch that bait.  If you wanna play aggressively have wards so you'll know when it's a bait and when it's not.

Have you ever made a blind arrow on a hero trying to run?  To be able to do this, you have to visualize the movement of the enemy and the movement of your arrow.  You also have to consider POTM's animation first before releasing her arrow.  A good conceptualization makes you successful with your arrows.  Not only playing POTM needs this, there are a lot of heroes that can hit invisible enemies like lina, sf, beastmaster, qop, krob, etc.  You don't want a hero escaping from you with only 5hp, do you?  So have a built in map hack inside your brain which is a good conceptualization.

In playing the captain's role, you need this trait a lot.  A captain should imagine the how the game would end.  He/she must be end-oriented in every game.  Several questions are to be considered by him.  Can the game be ended having the heroes you picked in 30mins?  What if the opponents got fat? Can it be ended using multiple pushes?  What are their counters?  How would the team fights be?  How would the ganking/ganging be?  Good vision of the game is very important in being a highly effective player.


2. Anticipate Situations

This is actually the most important trait of an effective Dota Player.  Having great predictions would make you have successful team fights and lesser deaths.  Predicting opponent's next move is very important in most competitions.  May it be chess, basketball, or boxing, prediction wins games.  Why? Because you know how you would counter a move before it is done.  You have to think 2 steps ahead.  "If he does that, i'll do this".  The following are some instances that consider anticipation. "If the enemy pushes, we're going to stab them from behind and kill their earthshaker without giving him a chance to move."  "If they respond using their disables, I'm going to turn my BKB on."  "I would attack him first because he will use his dagger of escape to dodge my magic missile."  "I will reserve my coil in this gank because he has teleport scroll and may just tp out from my face."  These simple predictions make you have corresponding plans to counter it.  Having plans is way more effective than not. You may have seen Hexor placed a torrent where a fighting-for-her-life mirana will surely leap after getting stunned.  It is fun to watch players like him who understands the game and evades most damages/disables if possible.  He who enters the fight when he knows he wont enter then die in one second.  Every skills that can stop him like stuns are programmed in his head.  Once those skills are done by the opponents and it's in cool down time, he acts and does his role.  Prediction is easy if you're not day dreaming.  You should be alert.  Know what might be the dangers in doing your next move.  There might be a ganker on the uphill waiting for you to show up.  Dying is very crucial.  Enemies will have extra gold from your death and from your absence on the lane. 


3. Be Patient

Benjamin Franklin said, "He that can have patience, can have what he will."  What does patience really mean?  Patience is not waiting passively, it is laziness.  Patience is the ability to keep going even the going is hard and slow.  A patient man doesn't give up.  In the game of Dota, there are just several ways to win fights.  I notice players ran out of morale after losing a clash.  Losing your confidence is like removing your guard and waiting for the killer blow to be thrown on you.  If you lost a clash, think why you did and try another one emitting that error.  An example would be you lost a clash because your main carry, a Nevermore, was stunned to death in 3 secs.  Next clash, try baiting the enemy with other heroes who have greater tanking ability and make your Shadow Fiend enter the battle after the enemy throw some of their skills.  If you don't have tanks, you may try to place observer wards on blind spots and initiate the fight first so you can make a hero or two die without having any use.  Patience is so important in this game.  Rush the fights without planning, you'll be most likely to have your hero inside the tavern.

Ganking needs a lot of patience.  Players tend to say "Ok, I won't gank there are observer wards."  Then after 25mins, your team is losing because of an over-farmed enemy Tinker.  Ganking wins early game, thus giving you more advantage at mid and late game. So gold spent for sentry wards wouldn't be wasted if you end up winning.  After all, supports are picked to have map control and give advantage to your team's carry heroes.  Expensive items are not required for support heroes for they already have useful skills for ganks and team fights.

Farming needs a lot of patience too.  It doesn't mean that you die often, you won't get fat.  Take a look at the legendary player ZSMJ, whose sacred relic was destroyed by the opposing team but didn't get affected.  Instead he farmed another one.  And it was a quick one.  People known him for being a farming machine and one of the things that makes him one is his patience.  If opposing heroes are missing, he would play passively and wait for a safe environment before he gets back to farming.  He doesn't die often because of "I wanna prove that I can farm fast!". 

4. Never Lose Calmness

"The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom." -James Allen

This game is a battle of minds. Concentration is very important in this game because in your mind should be predictions of enemies' plans, your plans of attacks, your plans of escape, and your next move after one move.  If you start to panic, the main focus of your mind would be to run when being chased; to throw skills all at once without plans when in a battle; to attack when being pushed.  Your mind being one sided is very easy for opponents to predict.  Thus your move becomes close to useless.  I have watched players who are being chased and run straight through the fountain making him easier for the opponents to chase.  Most calm players know that they can use fogs, trees, or they can run to their nearest team mate, or disable the stunner that can catch him, or even kill the one chasing him.  Survival needs tranquility.  Panicking makes you do what a 5 year old kid would do if a ganker is chasing you.  Being calm thus makes you think and predict that opponents may be approaching to gank you.  Prevention, really, is better than cure.  Prevent being ganked is better than surviving a gank.  It is alright to display on the map if back ups are ready to kill your gankers or you have reliable skills/items that will make you survive.


5. Be Unpredictable

Professional teams entering tournaments always have a surprise hero picks or strategies to beat their strongest opponents.  Other teams will watch your games before you even face them thus they are prepared for whatever they've seen.  If you're going to do the same thing, they have their counter picks or strategies that focus on your game plan's weaknesses.  Almost all things in Dota have counters and good players will utilize these counters to beat their opponents.  I watched a local team played very good games.  They end the games they played in 30 minutes or less.  Their main hero was Axe.  Then the finals had come.  The game started. -cm was typed.  Tic tac tic tac.  Turn of their opponent to ban...  First ban... Axe...  After the game, the team I watched and admired a lot lost.  I happened to be that this team didn't have a surprise plan.  They were predictable.  They really do plan to use Axe until finals.

Team fights and ganks are often studied by good players right after they are picked.  So, doing same old ganking and battle styles gives you low chance of winning because these players already experienced them and know how to counter them.  Example, you are playing scourge.  You have a tri-lane at the bottom and so as the sentinel.  The sentinel predicted that scourge will gank mid, so they placed an observer ward where you are going to pass.  Then here you come "let's gang mid".  You pass through their ward.  Now, the sentinel's supports move through the fog behind you.  The mid hero bluffs you that he will farm the neuts but before you can make a move, they cornered and killed you both.  This is a basic counter for ganking.  Some uses TP save.  The main point is don't think that the enemies are not learning, specially those good players.  You should have several alternatives and choose the best move in given situations.


6. Have Power Over Your Emotions

Michael Jordan, a great basketball player as well as a  trash talker, once said "I know the game so well that I can psych out people making it easier to beat them."  Once your emotions take over, your focus will be greatly affected.  Getting angry at an enemy would lead you to be aggressive in a wrong way.  You may tend to gank that enemy without considering that he has back ups.  You may tend to focus him on a clash first even if his hero is Bristleback with 100K hp.  Getting upset with a team mate may have you not save him on some circumstances.  When you're having a hard lane and your upset with yourself because you cannot farm, you may tend to rush farming and end up 0-10 in 5mins.  This is a mind game not a heart game.  You should use your mind to try to win not your heart to whine when losing.  Yes, it may not be your fault when you lose but this is a multiple player game.  Losing is bitter for those who swallow it.  You can choose your response in any situation.  There are several people who can't control their emotions.  When they lose, it's like an automatic switch for their anger.  They have the program --if lose turn anger.exe on-- in their system.  Anger comes from selfishness.  Not getting what one wants is it's root.  You can choose not to be angry or upset in any situation.  It's called being proactive.


7. Learn From Errors

Learn from your or other player's errors.  Simply playing 100 games per day wont get you better if you are not critical with your errors and you don't work to avoid doing those again.  In losing games there are errors you need to find out.  Some errors are obvious, some needs more analysis but generally, these errors are present.  After you find out what are the errors that cause a game, a gank, or a team fight to end up a 'lose'.  You need to learn how to avoid it and do the right things.  "Gems cannot be polished without friction." It is natural to make a lot of errors if you want to be a better player.  After several errors made and corrected, a Gosu will be born.  Experience is your teacher, not your worst nightmare.  Like a teacher, you should know exactly what it is trying to convey to you.  Not a nightmare that you don't want to go through it again.  Losing is like going to class.  Some doesn't want to come but those who sacrificed and come to class everyday, learned a lot.  After several classes, here comes graduation.  Graduation, in this case, is your award of being a Highly Effective Dota Player.
