My sister started playing Dota 2 months before I did, primarily learning the game by using online resources and, unlike me, playing against bots. Voice communication is critical, especially when you're learning. So, if you've got friends on your Steam list who play Dota 2, ask if they'd be willing to show you the ropes.Īlso, get a mic. There are a number of resources online, but constant supportive communication early on was key in getting me involved and keeping me from fleeing in terror at the prospect of Dota 2's complexity. If you've got friends on your Steam list who play Dota 2, ask if they'd be willing to show you the ropes I asked a ton of questions as we played and, because these were people who wanted me to understand the game, no question was seen as stupid. This is what allowed me to find fun right away, as opposed to struggling against bots in a game I didn't understand. It was only later that I started playing without them. I started playing Dota 2 specifically because it was the only thing anyone I knew was playing with any regularity, and I wanted to play games with my friends.

This might seem premature, but my first experiences with Dota 2 skipped past the "playing with bots" stage and went straight to "playing with friends who knew how to play Dota 2." You'll also get a very basic introduction to items. This is all very intro-level, but it's incredibly important, especially if you don't have much experience with Warcraft 3, which is the evolutionary basis for the modern MOBA genre. You'll learn a few heroes (including Sniper, a popular, incredibly annoying pick), and you'll learn about the kinds of abilities characters have and how to activate them. Dota 2 does have a tutorial and, while it offers a small taste of the game's depth, it's better than nothing. You wouldn't play a sport with a bunch of strangers without knowing how it works.
