Dota2 TI3 Interview with Bulldog: I Can Play All Off-line Heroes | 2P

Bulldog had won over LGD and DK in Dota2 TI3, which are tough fights and he would like to say something about Dota2 and himself.

*off-lane is the term.

And he's freaking good. I applaud his backdoor.

Congrats Alliance

Backdooring is a strategy in which someone goes by themselves and pushes towers in Dota 2. Though this was not the strat used in the final match. While Na'vi were attempting to push the mid lane against Alliance, Bulldog and Akke(I think it was Akke) pushed two lanes and basically began what was the winning push for the grand finals.

ExCest3935d ago

Well, I consider it a double backdoor.

Na'vi had their hands tied up at Dire base and at Rosh so since Bulldog and Loda+EGM (was the wisp I believe) came in to jump the towers while they were committed, I considered it a backdoor since it was so sneaky.

It was just unfortunate that one puck ulti managed to secure that win. I wasn't over one final epic battle.

Valve: 'Smurfing Is Not Welcome In Dota', Bans 90,000 Accounts

Valve has spoken out forcefully against smurfing in Dota 2 after banning more than 90,000 accounts - and targeting their owners.

Fist4achin260d ago

Pardon my ignorance for never having played this, but why even have the ability to create multiple guest accounts? It seems if there is only one account per player then it would eliminate this smurfing issue.

sadraiden260d ago

Probably to get new players hooked on the addictive gameplay loop, more people playing = statistically more people buying battle passes.

Fist4achin260d ago

Makes sense and cents for Valve. Thanks

Why would seasoned players want to play with lower skill players anyway? Just to owned them? They’re n00bs, what’s the fun in that?

It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.

SegaSaturn669260d ago

This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
