DotA 2 Diaries

I haven’t mentioned that I have been whiling time playing dota 2 since the start of the last semester in school. This game is a brilliant piece of work and I fully understand why so many people have been playing it for years. Wherever IceFrog may be now, I hope he is a rich and happy man.

I like using Disruptor (the small for his kind but fearless guy backstory really gets me), and a few other supportive ranged heroes. Don’t really move out of my comfort zone. I hope to be good at heroes like Earthshaker and Keeper of the Light, but. I’m.. really not there yet.

I already know I lack superior cognitive and motor skills and spatial awareness when it comes to games, and even now I mostly play blind when ganking. My tunnel vision is such that I only see a couple centimetres radius around my hero and usually have no idea where everyone is or what is happening behind me. Hell, I sometimes lose my hero among the spells. Still, I get by. I think. Still learning.

I have also been playing Wargaming’s World of Tanks, Torchlight on Steam and also Maplestory for nostalgia’s sake for the past few years. It’s a wonder I still graduated with my B.Eng Second Uppers.
