We all know that Dota 2 is a team game, so we will have to interact with other players one way or another. There are many ways to do this - chat, chat wheel, voice chat. But, in addition to standard types, there are more unique ones.
Artists "DotA"
Everyone knows how to write in a chat, but few know how to draw on a map. In "Dota 2" this plays a big role, because in this way you can show the direction of movement of your hero or enemy. You can also specify a gathering place for a subsequent attack or highlight a specific place that, in your opinion, is occupied by opponents. The card is completely at your disposal, no one will limit you in where and how to draw. On the map in "Dota 2" you can see both completely indecent cartoons and quite acceptable emoticons. Drawings are made in colored lines. Their color depends on your color in the team, and if you are a commentator, coach or simple observer, your lines will be white.
Limitation
However, the game provided for some limitations. Many do not know how to draw on the map in “Dota 2” when they are in a common mud (thus, the game limits the player for any violation). So, if you have a similar punishment, then access to drawing you will be closed. Nothing can be done with this. Mut hangs a certain amount of time that will be shown to you when you try to use both voice and written chat. In order not to receive such unpleasant restrictions the next time, be more tolerant, do not shout at other players and, moreover, do not insult them.
Should be considered
Any of your drawing disappears after a while (literally a few seconds). This is done so that the mini-map in the game is not constantly loaded with colored lines. The drawing of one player is superimposed on the drawing of another, so mixing colors from your lines is impossible. You will not be able to see how the players of the enemy team draw on their minimap. Also, your drawings are not displayed on the site itself. Those. if you want to portray something or allocate a place in the game itself, and not on the minimap, then as a simple player or coach, you won’t. Here you need to have a special status, which, for example, commentators possess, and also use some commands in the console.
We hope that this article taught you how to draw on a map in Dota 2. Remember that some of your drawings can both amuse allied players and upset them. Do not get mut for your actions.
