After  Andreas 'Blurpi' Andersson's exit from the DotA scene, another famous video-maker known only as  Chris 'Black-_-Lotus' Wayne has decided to throw in the towel as well. His previous videos which included Perceptive Play 6 and the 8-volume Pudge series have made him a living legend over the years and his current project, 'How to DotA', will be left unfinished following his decision to focus on other things related to real life.

In the incomplete 'How to DotA 6' video, Black-_-Lotus once again displays his prowess in the game, incorporating superb personal skills and trickery to his advantage. Also featured in this video are other famous DotA players like  KuroKy and  DkPhobos, just to name a few. Although the video is only three minutes long, its action-packed scenes are a joy to watch.

Enjoy the movie!

We all play public games, be it on Garena, Battle.net or any other platform.

What I am offering here is a common set of knowledge that I hope to share with everyone, so that we can raise the level of Dota locally together, and through that, evolve Dota to its next stage in the competitive scene.
