The original Dota made a giant splash in the gaming industry when it came out as a simple custom mod for Warcraft 3. It spawned an entirely new genre, one of which was much more accessible than the then traditional RTS while still providing strategy. League of Legends is the most well known benefactor of the new genre. However, the creator went on to Valve to create a sequel to the original mod - Dota 2.
To install Dota 2, you need Steam installed. Once that's done, go to this link to install the game.
This game in comparison to League of Legends has a far steeper learning curve. While in League of Legends, you could simply pick one character in each role as a base from which to expand your game knowledge, Dota 2 discourages that, as a hero can be incredibly overpowered some games and weak against others. You need to have the knowledge to understand when a hero is a good pick or not.
However, the fact that this game rewards knowledge so much also makes it much more rewarding to continue playing for a long time.
If you aren't a fan of MOBAs, however, this game also features an extensive custom map and genre arcade scene. In fact, the new genre of Autochess came from this game's custom mode! There are endless hours of fun in the arcade as well.
Overall, Dota 2 has a ton of features that will make it easy for fans of the genre as well as newcomers find a way to have fun.
