Dota rapidshare

Defense of the Ancients is known as Dota and one of the most popular custom map for Warcraft 3. You are usually not allowed to download dota ingame from other wc3 players as the map itself is relatively big. I can only recommend you to download dota from a free-file hoster such as rapidshare. Rapidshare has the fastest connections and is very handy if you own a so called Premium-Account over there. With that account you can use the maximum bandwidth and download dota faster than ever from rapidshare.

The official Dota mirrors tend to be relatively slow because of the mass downloading. Those hosts do not have that much bandwidth and for rapidshare users it is much better to download Dota using RS. I made a collection of several Dota maps and uploaded the dota versions to a rapidshare download folder.

Click on the link to open the Dota rapidshare folder. Enjoy your fast downloads and pwn other dota players in game :P.

P.S, great to know that there are other rapidshare and dota freaks around :P. Make sure to subscribe to my blogger (blogspot) blog for more cool Dota news. Here is the link to the Dota rapidshare folder.

Dota videos

All of us know, Dota is probably the most advanced custom map for Warcraft 3. Defense of the Ancients is known for it's advanced strategy. To learn the different strategies I tried to collect some Dota videos. Those strategy videos of Dota will instruct you how to use the different heroes correctly. Magina for example, or Syllabear are quite hard to play and require guides. Reading is boring, I must agree, that's why I collected some videos of dota that contain strategic elements . Watching the videos of the Dota heroes might also just inspire you to try something new :-). Those defense of the ancients videos show you what every dota player should now, the customizations and apropriate items make you pwn others. The players in the dota movies know what is best when you for example fight bone fletcher or a drow ranger. They know what strategy is the best and how to upgrade their hero to beat other strong hero. Every hero is good, some dota heroes are harder to play, but still with those short dota clips it should be no problem for you to pick the best items and strategies.

I collected those videos of Dota from youtube. To play them just click the play button in the middle and enjoy. Feel free to comment an share your strategies.

Dota megaupload

Many people know the problem when downloading Dota maps. It is not allowed to download them in game and requires external dota download sources. You have a 100 mbit connection and download dota from the official website with 5 kb/sec – LOL – you are not alone. I recommend you to get a megaupload premium account, once you have it you an upload and download files with no restrictions. MU is known as the best filehoster with rapidshare. So why not upload dota on megaupload?

That's what I have done, I uploaded several Dota maps on Megaupload so you guys can download them at maximum speed. Nice eh? Yep, even better that megaupload allows fast downloads for free users as well. Just enter the code, save your dota map on your computer and then move dota in your wc3 maps folder. Start Warcraft 3 and join/host a game.

Use the dota megaupload link to download the dota maps directly from rapidshare. And the Dota megaupload folder is.
