Dota 2 is one of the most popular MOBA – Multiplayer Online Battle Arena – games in the world. It is also one of the most extensive eSports games out there, next to other big names such as LOL, CSGO, and so on. Because of that, the Dota 2 betting universe that has been created is very popular nowadays with numerous Dota 2 betting sites out there.
Just like other MOBA games, Dota 2 is a game that combines role-playing with real-time strategy. The match consists of ten Dota 2 players divided into two teams of 5 players, each fighting for their victory. The first team to successfully destroy the “ancient”, or the central building of the opposite team, will be crowned the winner of the match.
Each player will choose his character out of more than 100 characters available. These characters all have various characteristics and their skills can be improved by advancing more levels, killing creeps, or other opponents.
Given its notoriety, Dota 2 bets can be played on the majority of betting sites. Just look up the most famous ones and decide what Dota 2 betting site is the most suitable for you and your needs.
A very interesting thing about Dota betting is how the spectators can bet their money on the outcome of a match. Three things can be used to place a bet in Dota 2: real money, play money, and in-game items. Real money is the most common one among betters. Play money appeared as a solution to those who wanted to place a Dota bet but could not because of their country’s rules and regulations (one such example is the United States of America).
The last things you can gamble within Dota 2 are the in-game items. The Steam client offered by Valve (only allows for third parties – is not affiliated with the gambling in itself) enables players to trade and exchange or to bet on their in-game items as they want to.
This is possible because the majority of these items have a real monetary value, probably the players have purchased these items with their own money, and they are rare and valuable enough to be worth betting on.
Even more, some items are very rare and difficult to purchase, so the bet is considered just as valuable as the one involving real money. For those who do not play Dota 2, this betting method is not very profitable since the money obtained from selling these items can be used to buy other items in the game. Forums can be a solution for this method, but nobody accounts for a forum’s reliability.
Finally, if you are looking to have some fun, win some money, or add some valuable items to your collection, get your game skills and your wallet ready and do some bets Dota 2. Just keep in mind the tricks above to be successful.
