For all you non-gamers out there, the TL;DR version for the Defense of the Ancient 2 (DOTA 2) game is that it’s a multiplayer online battle arena game where you team up with 4 other players and have a 5v5 team battle to see who can destroy the enemy’s structure faster.

DOTA: Dragon’s Blood might just be the perfect binge for us anime lovers and I can hardly wait for its release.
