After playing for more than ten minutes, Qin Fen really wanted to curse.

Among the four skills of the Shadow Demon, two of them are passive skills, and there is one "Shadow Pressure" left, and the ultimate "Elegy of the Soul", the ultimate is a little easier to use, the Shadow Demon stands there and shakes around, chanting for a while, and releases a black circle centered on himself and "exploding" in all directions, the special effect of the black circle is that a circle of black ghosts rises on the ground, which matches the character characteristics of the Shadow Demon absorbing the surrounding souls very well.

However, the ultimate is an ultimate after all, and it can't be released at any time, and Qin Fen is very speechless about the only small skill that the shadow demon can use, "Shadow Pressure".

After trying a few times, Qin Fen found that the effects of these three small skills seemed to be the same, as soon as the shadow demon raised his hand, a ghost remnant appeared on the ground, but the problem is that the casting distance of these three small skills is not the same, the three shadow pressures correspond to close distance, medium distance, and long distance, and the range of influence of the skill in the game is not marked.

In other words, the distance at which the enemy is and at what distance must be estimated by the player himself.

Looking at the three shadow pressure icons that looked exactly the same, Qin Fen was really almost abused and cried.

"What the hell, this hero is a complete piece of waste!"

Everyone is also a novice, but Qin Fen was abused by the opposite side, which made him depressed.

In DOTA, there are three defense towers on each road, and they must be pushed off one by one to push the opponent's base, a group of rookies didn't even figure out the equipment, of course it was laborious to push the tower, 38 minutes later, the other party finally pushed the high ground on Qin Fen's side, and after encountering many suicidal resistances, Qin Fen's hometown finally exploded.

"Damn!" Dota knelt down on the first hand, Qin Fen didn't mention how depressed he was, "You should choose a simpler hero, this hero is too difficult to play." ”

At the end of a match, the system automatically exits the game, and suddenly, a dialog box pops up from Battle.net.

The dialog box is divided into two parts, and on it is a statistical table, showing the data of Qin Fen in this game.

Hero: Shadow Fiend

Kills: 0

Deaths: 19 (Mob kills: 1 tower kill: 3 stealth assassin kills: 4 times...... ）

Number of Reinforcements (Positive Reinforcements): 144

Reinforcements (denies): 0

Number of junglers: 2

Economy: 5477

Hero Points: -78 (your Shadow Fiend Points are currently ranked 5677th in the world)

Total Ranked Points: -78 (your Ranked Points are below 100,000)

Under the data table, there is one more line of words.

New World Battle.net Dota Ladder: This is a scoring system that measures the true level of players, and every time you match, the ladder will match you with players of similar strength.

An hour and a half later, the Frozen Throne began to post more about DOTA. Interestingly, however, most of these posts are about the "ladder".

"What the hell is the ladder? Brother's anti-mage is ranked 4312th in the world?

In the new world, not to mention ranking in the top 10,000, being able to rank in the top 1 million means that you are a master, when have the average player experienced the top 5000!

"I won't comment on the game first.,The main thing is that I haven't played it yet.,But the setting of DOTA is very interesting.,Two armies fight.,5 players on one side.,Each person controls a hero.,Unlike the Frozen Throne.,You also have to control small soldiers.,But there are too many heroes.,The equipment is also very complicated.,It's this ladder.,It's said to be a real rating of the player's personal level.,And you can also match players with comparable strength according to each person's ladder points.,That's interesting.。 ”

In fact, New World Battle.net has had a "ranking" thing for a long time, Empire, Interstellar, AR3, CS have, but the ladder is not exactly the same as ranking, the official explanation is that the ladder is a scoring system, just like a copy of DNF, each player wants their copy rating to be SSS level, and the ladder is the overall rating of the player's game, which greatly arouses the player's desire to improve their own level and obtain a higher rating.

Coupled with the playability of DOTA itself and the huge player base of New World, I believe it won't be long before players will truly feel the charm of DOTA.

But Lindy didn't want to wait too long, "I still have to teach the players a little bit, it's almost June now, so let the players get into the state as soon as possible." ”

Previously, Lindy released two interstellar game videos through Xiaomei's live broadcast, but there are more than 100 heroes in DOTA, and Lindy really doesn't have time to play more than 100 games, and in DOTA, each hero is for different opponents, different situations, and different outfits and ideas, so 100 games are not enough.

"Forget it, it's good to briefly introduce the hero first, and let the player figure out the rest of the things themselves. ”

On the second day of DOTA's launch, the New World Frozen Throne forum once again appeared in the elusive official pinned post.

"Dota Heroes Explained. ”

There is only one link in the post, which is a link to the video station of the new world game, and when you open this link, players can see that there are nearly 100 short videos on the video station.

The detailed explanation of heroes is indeed a relief for players who are eager to improve their ladder scores.

Qin Fen was not very happy all day, and several people in the unit had higher ladder scores than him, especially Li Xiang, who was actually a positive number, ranking in the top 100,000!

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Fen rushed to the computer as soon as he got off work, "What, isn't it just more than 30 points?

"Let's go see if there is a player strategy first, there are too many heroes, so let's find a good practice first. Opening the forum, Qin Fen was immediately attracted by the official post of New World.

"Hero's detailed explanation, great, brother just wants this!" immediately clicked on the link, and more than 100 videos appeared on Qin Fen's computer screen.

"Hiss~ so much!"

Among the many videos, the first one is the DOTA overview, Qin Fen doesn't want to see it, the second one is actually the shadow demon he used in the first game, although Qin Fen doesn't like this hero, but he still clicks on it first.

In the video, the familiar black shadow appears in the camera.

"Shadow Fiend, or SF for short, is a hero who can save the world when he is strong, and a hero who makes people vomit blood when he is weak, and he is one of the few heroes in DOTA who only has two active skills......"

"Whether an SF is strong or not, the key is to look at his shadow pressure, the distance of the shadow pressure is divided into three sections, and the shortcut keys corresponding to the near, medium and far three guns are Z, X, C, and the following will show you the three-stage shadow pressure. ”

In the video, an enemy hero walks towards Shadow Demon, Shadow Demon raises his hand, first the farthest C gun, then X gun, then Z gun, three shadow pressures all hit the local hero, at this time the enemy hero has only a trace of blood left, Shadow Demon raises his hand to attack once, and takes it away directly.

"This!" Seeing this scene, Qin Fen was really stunned. Is this the right way to open shadow pressure?

Compared with the shadow demon in the video, his own shadow demon can only be called "shadow worm"!

"This is from far to near, and vice versa, if the enemy hero wants to escape, you can release the shadow pressure from near to far, and the distance of the shadow pressure needs to be mastered in a large number of actual battles, in addition, the shadow pressure has some small tricks, turn around and press, blind pressure ......" In the video, the operator briefly demonstrated these two skills.

"Let's talk about the next two skills, every time the shadow demon kills a unit, you can collect souls and increase attack power for yourself, the higher the level of the second skill, the higher the upper limit of the soul collection, the higher the attack stack, in combination with the three skills passive, reduce the opponent's armor, a full soul of the shadow demon, the general attack is very painful!"

Qin Fen finally knew why his Shadow Demon's attack power was so low, the Shadow Demon without a soul had a very average attack.

"The last is the ultimate, Soul Elegy, this skill is the most terrifying skill of the Shadow Demon, the damage of the skill is determined by two factors, first, the number of souls collected, and second, the distance between the enemy unit and the Shadow Demon, when a full soul of the Shadow Demon, when the elegy of the soul is released, you can directly kill some crispy heroes in seconds, let me show you. ”

"Spike?!" Qin Fen's eyes widened, this word was really attractive.

Every hero here is controlled by the player, and the thrill of killing enemy heroes in seconds makes people's blood boil when they think about it.

It's only a second to be a skill by Shadow Fiend, and it's so pleasant to think about the expressions of the players on the other side.

In the video, the Shadow Demon's personal phantom assassin shook up, and the phantom assassin was directly killed in seconds.

"Holy!"

"Here you should be able to see how terrifying the output of the Shadow Demon is, and the trajectory of the Shadow Demon is very good, and the attack distance is also very long, in the process of aligning the line, as long as the soul is accumulated, it is very easy to replenish the troops to suppress the opposite side. ”

The shadow demon in the video twisted around, one would make up for a while, and one would make up for the other, and the opponent had no way to deal with the intelligence hero demon wizard on the line.

"Of course, Shadow Fiend also has weaknesses, and the biggest weakness is brittleness, so when outputing, pay attention to your position and don't be killed first. ”

"That's all for this tutorial, Shadow Fiend's actual combat skills and outfit ideas still need to be explored in the game by yourself, DOTA is a kaleidoscopic game, there is no strongest hero, only the strongest player. ”

The video was very short, only more than 3 minutes, but when Qin Fen finished watching this video, the whole person became excited.

"It's too strong!" After a long pause, Qin Fen spit out these three words.

Zhoujiacang Internet Cafe, for a while, there are not many people playing games, and there are rows of Internet café computers with videos.

"The fire girl's triple burst is very amazing, after coming out of Aghanim's scepter, it has a very large enhancement to the ultimate, and it can also ignore the opponent's magic immunity and directly deal real damage......"

"Faceless Mask, commonly known as Face Brother, one of the most powerful late-game players in DOTA, his first skill guarantees his battlefield cutting ability and escape ability......"

All of a sudden, Zhoujiacang's New World Internet Cafe was filled with a strong learning atmosphere.
