Mirana's real name is actually Priestess of the Moon.
It was in the original Dota but then they changed it to Mirana.
So, it's...
Priestess of the POTM or POTM of the Moon.
Aka Priestess of the Moon.
This is a really nice choice.
I really like that hero.
My favourite is Keeper of the KOTL or KOTL of the Light.
Aka Keeper of the Light.
This is Esports Vikings Christmas Calendar.
I'm your host!
Teemu!
And my special guest continues;
Alisha!
Continues to embarrass herself.
So...
Alisha embarrassed herself...
I didn't...
I wouldn't say embarrassed.
I think we saw some progress.
Really?
In the Counter-Strike episode.
Yeah.
I think you did some...
Things right.
You...
You sat down.
I found the mouse.
You found the mouse.
You found WASD.
Yeah.
Exactly.
And from Counter-Strike...
Counter-Strike is pretty straightforward, right?
Mhm.
So, you had the pretty straightforward.
Now, we have the...
The clusterf*ck.
Okay.
The game is called Dota 2.
After...
I'd say Starcraft 2 is the most complex esports there is.
Second one is Dota.
So, Dota...
Comes from Defense of the Ancients.
Which was originally a custom game mode in Warcraft 3 back in the days.
And then...
After Warcraft 3 ended, Valve bought the rights to Dota 2.
They also bought IceFrog, the developer to Valve and they created Dota 2.
Which is Defense of the Ancients 2, aka Dota 2.
The...
Name of the game or...
What you do in the game is that you have to destroy the opponent's ancient, which is the opponent's base.
And to do that, you have to get through objectives.
We have around 130 different characters.
Who all have from four to eight different skills.
You have to choose one of them.
You're gonna be teamed with four other players.
So, it's gonna be five versus five.
Mhm.
There are three different lanes: top, middle and bottom.
All of them have three towers.
You need to take down each one of them like, tier by tier...
To reach the base and then destroy it.
Then there's quite a few objectives on the way.
Neutrals and creeps...
And opponent Heroes...
And then you need to buy some items, you level up, you get more items...
[MUFFLED VOICE]
Quite straightforward and simple, what do you think?
Well, it looks very...
Colourful.
It is very colourful.
It's a beautiful game.
[ALISHA NODS]
Should we get to it?
And what about...
Do you have to defend your own base as well?
Of course.
You're defending and attacking at the same time so, you're like...
A forward and a defender and a goalie and coach and whatnot, you know?
You can do all those things at once.
Aha.
But I'm your coach, so you don't have to be a coach.
Okay!
So...
You know your mouse.
You know your keyboard.
So...
Here...
You get to choose your Hero.
So, you can choose whatever looks nice and then I'll tell you if it's...
Worth picking.
[SNORTS]
There's a lot of redheads.
She's a brunette.
Yeah.
Let's go for her.
Okay.
Click that.
And then, lock in.
Lock in?
Yeah.
Now...
Recommended.
Click those two.
Recommended by guide.
What did I do?
You bought it.
Oh.
With those tangos, you can buy...
You can eat trees to gain health.
Eat trees to gain health?
Yep.
That's supposed to help me?
[LAUGHS]
Yeah.
You get regeneration.
Okay.
Okay.
Now...
Press 'OK'.
So -
More gold, more XP...
Okay!
So, you have three skills.
You can mouse over them.
Three skills?
Starstorm.
That does damage around you.
Okay.
Then, you move to the next one.
Sacred Arrow.
You throw an arrow.
When it hits an enemy it stuns it and does damage.
And then you have Leap.
Which is...
You leap away for a bit.
Your dog champion.
So, I would pick the middle one.
Starstorm!
You can take Starstorm if you want.
But I would go for Sacred Arrow.
Okay.
Click the plus above it.
Plus?
Oh, yeah.
Now press F4.
That opens up the Buy menu.
And...
I would, in this case, buy the Magic Stick.
The Magic Stick?
Magic Stick.
Yes.
And then, two Mangos.
I do like my Mango.
You can buy two of them.
And why this?
Left click.
I mean, right click.
And...
Right click the Magic Stick, also.
And why?
Like, why these other than -
Because you need it.
Now, start -
Why not the Butterfly?
Because you don't have money for it, yet.
Or the Blink Dagger?
You will buy them when you have money.
The Phase Boots.
All of that, you will buy later on.
But, you will need...
The Power Treads.
Because you don't have money, Alisha.
We need less.
Start moving -
[GIBBERISH]
Start moving towards here.
So, you can click this -
How do I move towards here?
You -
Here!
Yep.
You can click on left and right.
Now you moved your camera there.
And then you right...
Left click, right click.
[GASP]
Now you're moving.
Okay.
So...
In here...
You see...
These little...
Things.
They're called -
Oh, can I use these?
Also you can.
They are called creeps.
Okay.
The green ones are yours.
Creeps!
Yeah.
They're creeps.
Or...
Yeah.
They're creeps.
The green ones are yours.
The brown ones are enemies.
They're all...
All of them are all colours.
I'm confused.
You see; green and brown.
Yeah, but it's like all -
Green is good.
Okay.
Brown is not.
Okay.
You have to shoot this...
To get money and gold...
To kill these enemies.
Now you can move towards here.
But do I kill the red enemies or the blue ones first?
You...
The creeps are...
You get...
Gold and XP when you kill them, but you get more when you kill the Heroes.
But you need to go to the action now.
So, you click here.
You can...
You can move this -
But everyone left.
No, no, no.
They're moving.
So, you click here.
Right click.
Now you came closer.
And then you can click this Creep.
Where am I?
There you are.
Oh, there I am.
You can click the Creep.
Click the Creep.
Now you start shooting, you see?
So, I'm just...
Clicking?
Now go back.
Back, back.
Move.
You're getting shot.
There's...
Click, click, click, click, click!
Move, move, move!
Oh!
Now press...
Oh!
That's why you I'm like, clicking like crazy.
Yeah.
And that's why you were clicking into nothingness when I was watching you play.
Yeah.
And now you can press 1.
What the hell?
No!
Don't click your own thing!
You don't want to attack your own guy.
I wasn't.
I was hitting the red guy.
Yeah.
But...
This is a Hero.
It's your friend because it has a...
Green health bar.
Brown health bar or red health bar is bad.
But the style looks exactly the same as the others.
No, no, no.
Wait, no.
Okay.
See?
You get gold when you click it.
You only need to click it once.
Oh.
Now, press 1 and then eat the tree.
Press 1 and then press 3.
The other click.
Press 1.
See?
You ate the tree.
And now you can click the Creep and you are automatically shooting at it.
Well, that made sense.
Oh.
What did I do?
Click the Creep.
Just once.
Once is enough.
Just one?
Yeah.
And now click the other one.
No.
Now you need to wait a bit.
You're gonna...
Press -
Why am I stacking on the Creep?
You get to choose another...
Level.
What is this?
Leap.
That's the jump.
Is that a good thing?
Yeah.
Okay.
You can press the Q one also, because you're level 3.
Now you're level 4.
Okay.
Now you can go shoot at the tower.
Click the tower once.
This one?
Yeah.
Click it once.
Move.
Move down a bit, with your thing.
So you see this.
You click it.
Okay.
Other click.
Where am I?
You can see yourself here, on the Minimap.
Okay.
But you're wrong clicking it.
See...
Now you click...
Now you're shooting at the tower.
But if the towers starts shooting at you, move back instantly.
But, how do I move back?
You click -
Oh, yeah.
That's true.
F*ck.
[LAUGHS]
And now you click the Creep.
Move back.
And now you can shoot this Creep.
This one!
And now move back.
Back, back, back!
I always forget that I have to move...
The easiest way is to move with...
Your...
So, you move the camera with your mouse -
What the hell?
Because now you're not using your skill set off.
Because you need to press the button, press Q.
Go close to the creeps and press Q.
Now press Q.
Q?
Q.
See?
Starstorm.
Pew pew!
Can I do it again?
No.
You have a cooldown.
Press this plus here.
So you get more levelled skills.
Okay.
Something happened.
Go to base.
Press...
Go here.
On the minimap.
Here?
Yeah.
Go there.
Just click here.
Yeah.
Move there.
Now we go heal.
That's a...
It's a shrine, it gives you more health.
Because you're...
You're low in health, right?
I became ill?
They shot at you.
Oh, right.
[LAUGHS]
Now we're following the Hero.
Maybe I'll do this so you can see yourself all the time.
See?
Now you're getting more...
And then you go back to the lane where you just were.
Here?
No.
Top.
Actually go here.
Go there.
Here?
Yes.
There.
Right click to move.
Left click to...
See something.
There's gonna be a Rune.
Click that.
"I'm retreating"; Archy Bot.
Click that Rune.
Now you get more gold.
Right click.
See?
And now you go back to the lane.
Where was I?
Here?
Here.
Yes.
But no one's there.
No, no, no.
They're here.
Oh.
You can always see them on the minimap.
Oh, right.
And now where am I?
Go, go, go!
Click, click, click.
[GIBBERISH]
Right click.
Oh, yeah.
[LAUGHS]
So, this is what it feels like when someone has never played video games.
Now you can click that wagon.
To attack it.
And press...
Press the plus.
Now you have more levels.
Okay.
W.
Press W and here.
W.
And...
There.
Yeah.
Go, go, go.
Here.
Good.
Now you can go there, also.
No, I...
I shot the arrow there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
It could have been good.
Almost.
Now you can get your Ultimate.
And this...
Then press R.
Press R.
Your entire team goes invisible now.
There are so many things to think about.
No one can see you now.
You're hiding...
But it's gonna end soon.
But you can move!
You don't have to stand still.
But where am I moving?
You're going towards the tower.
Oh.
Right, right, right.
How do I...
Wait.
How do I?
Oh.
[LAUGHS]
See?
Go kill.
Got it.
Nice!
Did I kill that?
Yep.
Oh.
Go forward.
Now you're getting a hang of it.
Yeah.
You're clicking the creeps.
It's suddenly...
Now, if you go closer to the creep...
When there are a lot of creeps, you go close to them and then you press Q.
And you're gonna get...
You're gonna do a lot of damage.
Now go kill!
Good.
Okay.
This one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's go.
Mildred Bot.
Let's go!
Oh my God!
Move away.
Move away!
Where was I?
I...
Did I kill myself?
Yes.
That's...
You shouldn't use these arrows to move.
You should use your mouse.
Exactly, I keep forgetting that.
So, with your mouse you can do a circle in this and then when you press F1 -
So I shouldn't use these at all.
No.
You should have your hand here so you can use the skills.
Oh, right.
Now press...
F1.
And now press Z.
Z.
And then click...
And then click there.
Here?
Yeah.
You're gonna teleport.
And then press F1.
Now you see your Hero again.
Then you can go top.
Towards your friend.
Here.
This way?
Yeah.
Alright.
You want to buy some items?
Do you want boots to make you faster?
Will that make me faster?
Yes, it will.
Boots give you movement speed.
Well, I do like shopping.
Okay.
So, press F4.
Mhm.
Let's go here.
Go here to hide before you buy items.
That's a good place to hide.
Okay.
Now, you see...
What do you want?
You want the Phase Boots?
Pink boots.
We don't have...
Oh.
We have red boots.
Okay.
Do you want?
Yeah.
There's the search...
Type: Boots of Travel.

What chicken?
Chicken already gave you the shoes.
Now you have shoes.

Go to the right.
There's a small neutral camp on the right side of you.
Here?
Yeah.
There it is.
There.
Go, go.
When you get there...
Shoot them.
And press Q.
And Q.
Q.
Pew!
See?
You're dealing a lot of damage.
Okay.
Next one.
You only need to click them once.
You're gonna automatically attack it.
Press that one.
Kill it.
Take the item.
What item?
You got Ocean Heart.
Okay.
That's good.
Click it.
Okay.
Now you have Ocean Heart.
Yay!
You also have another level.
You can choose whether one more of Leap or Arrow.
Arrows?
You can choose.
I have been leaping a lot, so.
Your friends are here fighting.
Let's...
Do want to make them invisible?
Click here so you go to them.
Nice.
And now...
When the tower is dead...

Then you press R.
To make...
Click it, so you attack.
They're coming.
See?

Nice.
And now press R.
R?

So you make them invisible.
Go fight.
Go fight!
Go kill the enemy!
Go kill enemy Heroes.
Here.
Oh.
Now you need to destroy this tower.
This one?
Yeah.
Press Q.
Did that do it?
Yeah.
You killed a lot of minions.
I did?
Now you're dealing damage.
You're winning the game Alisha.
Okay.
Cool, cool!
Die tower!
Now, this one.
So, but on this one I need to keep clicking?
No, no.
Just click it once.
And when you see the creeps...
When you see the creeps, press Q.
Is this a bad guy?
No.
That's green.
No.
Press Q.
No!
They killed it before.
But now just click that one.
You can attack it.
But what is this...
This one?
It's your teammate.
Okay.
It's a Hero.
It's called Tidehunter.
Tidehunter.
But it says Harold.
It's Harold Bot.
And Harold Bot is playing Tidehunter.
You click these buildings.
Don't go the too far there.
Go there.
You see where the Sniper is?
Yeah.
This is Sniper.
Okay.
Archie is the Sniper.
Now click the building.
This one?
That's a good...
Well...
Preferably, that tower.
Okay.
Because it's shooting at us.
Yeah.
You rather kill the tower.
That's...
This...
Now you see a bit better.
Because now, if an enemy is coming at you it's easier to see them.
Now click this one.
Now you're destroying the Ancient!
You're winning!
This is the point...
This is like the...
This is the Ancient.
You're destroying it, Alisha.
[CHEERS]
You have two assists, 11 Creep kills...
And you have Boots of Travel.
I do like those boots.
You know, you can teleport with those boots.
Cool.
Shh!
I'm busy killing this...
Mofo.
Do you know what this means?
You're a winner!
Yay!
[HIGH FIVES]
Ow!
Radiant Victory!
Nice!
There's a hole in the ground!
[CLAPS]
Now press continue.
I'm laughing on two levels.
That's crazy.
Okay.
You hear their laughing sound?
Yes.
So nice, isn't it?
Now you press continue.
I'm laughing with myself.
And we get the final screen.
Here are your stats.
Final screen!
500IQ Bot!
With Bots.
I have 5000 something...
And my friends have nothing.
Yeah.
That's nice.
Because you get all the gold in the game because this is kind of cheating.
Because you're playing with Bots.
You're a winner!
How does that make you feel?
Well, obviously against bots...
But let's just focus on the winning part.
Yeah.
Winning.
Yeah.
So...
I do feel good.
Yeah.
Winning is nice.
You think I should...
Quit my day job now?
I think you shouldn't.
Why?
Because you need to train hard -
I was really good.
Yeah.
You won...
I killed like...
Two of those creepy things.
Though...
Your winning percentage in Dota is hundred...
Minus a bit over fifty.
So technically, you are better than me.
See?
And that happened in...
Half an hour?
17 minutes.
17 minutes?
Well, I do feel proud.
So...
What you can do now is; stop recording.
You press the stop recording button.
Oh.
Well, you can do it from there too.
And...
There are so many things to think about.
Yeah.
You need to think about the movement, you need to be watching the...
Minimap all the time, you need to be seeing what items your friends are buying -
Mhm.
You need to see what items the enemies are buying...
Then you need to react to what -
And are these the items that sometimes go for...
Like, a lot of money?
No.
When you collect them.
No?
They are the cosmetic items.
Okay.
Cosmetic items are basically...
So, your Hero might look a bit different.
So, you pay money for that.
So, for example...
Your Mirana could have a different type of dog.
Okay.
Like, I have a different, very expensive dog for Mirana.
Marina's real name is actually Priestess of the Moon.
It was in the original Dota but then they changed it to Mirana.
So, it's...
Priestess of the POTM or POTM of the Moon.
Aka Priestess of the Moon.
It was a really nice choice.
I really like that Hero.
My favourite is Keeper of the KOTL or KOTL the Light.
Aka Keeper of the Light.
So...
[LAUGHS]
That makes total sense.
I don't know.
Somehow I'm...
Maybe more...
Attached to Counter-Strike actually.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I'm surprised.
I thought...
I wouldn't really be into shooting people but...
So, to those people watching...
Thank you Alisha, for joining us.
Thank you!
For...
Giving me nightmares.
No, no.
It was fun.
It was actually fun.
I'm just joking.
It was...
Well, I'm no longer a Dota virgin.
[BOTH LAUGH]
I've now...
Been playing...
A few of these esports games and as a complete newbie, I'm telling you...
The newbies of the newb.
I've had...
I've had fun.
I mean, it's...
Very different to what I usually do, so.
But I actually have an interesting question here.
Now that you've tested these games for a bit and you've...
Kind of seen the complexity of where they can get...
Does it make you appreciate the professional esports more?
Yeah.
I mean they...
Put hours and hours and years into...
Refining...
Their reactions and...
Yeah.
I mean...
Of course they, you know, they're giving their time and their passion...
To this, so.
Yeah.
I mean, it's...
Yeah.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Okay.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Boys and girls.
Everybody else.
Thank you for watching, once again.
I hope you enjoyed having Alisha here.
I certainly did.
Remember to do the subscribing thing.
Don't subscribe for me.
Subscribe for Alisha.
She's pretty, I'm not.
So...
Next time I'm gonna be...
That character.
He seems tough.
Axe?
Yeah.
Alright.
We'll do that.
So...
Our Christmas Calendar will return tomorrow.
Come back then!
