Clash of Clans Defense Tips

So in this post i would like to be sharing with you a guide to how to effectively protect your base.

Basically what you do is, always place the mortars inside the walls, like make sure that they are as safely protected as possible, because mortars are your main line of defense against the barbarians and archers whereby when they come in large groups point defense weapons like the cannon and archer tower doesn't work well on them.

Then, you place the cannons in the most outwards position due to their short range, followed by archer towers. 

Air Defense is also a key defense, when you get to the stage where enemies will start raiding your base with healers. So therefore, place your air defense in a very protected area in your base just like your mortars. But however, you do not need to do so if you haven't got to the stage where the enemies will start using healers.

Wizard towers are an excellent line of defense against barbarians and archers, I've seen countless times where I've committed mistakes in raiding which had caused my barbarians and archers getting mowed down by the enemy's wizard tower.

Always put the builder's hut on the top right hand corner and the bottom left hand corner of the map in order to prevent enemy's to be able to achieve 100% destruction. So that you do not lose too much trophies and hinder your progression in the game.

I hope this guide helped you in clash of clans.

Counter Strike Global Offensive - How to Rush

Here's a guide to rushing in Counter Strike Global Offensive in competitive mode.

Firstly, what ill do usually is to buy an SMG but you can do the same with either a shotgun or an assault rifle(Even though i discourage doing so).

My popular choice of SMG is either the P-90 or the UMP-45.

UMP-45 when i'm saving money early game, and the reason i like this weapon is because the damage output is the highest among all other SMGs as i usually like to take down enemies as quick as possible.

P-90 on the other hand, is when its about mid-game and i supposedly have enough money to purchase kevlar helmet and armor with P-90 and some leftover money to spare for the next game. P-90 is good because it had a large ammo capacity which comes useful when taking down multiple enemies in rapid succession,

One of my complains with the UMP-45 is this, 

Usually when I'm supposedly having 2 enemies back to back, with the P-90 i am assured that i am able to take them both down. But with the UMP-45, it gets annoying when you exhausted your ammo clip and the second guy takes you down even before you can pull out your pistol. 

So therefore, UMP-45 is good for early game because the kill reward is fruitful and its cheap

However, if you have a chance, get the P-90 because the tramendous ammo clips come into handy.

Now talking about shotguns

I would usually go for the Nova or the sawed off if I'm the terrorist in CSGO, because the range is higher and the damage is higher respectively.

Now its about the gameplay mechanics

Being a rusher, you want to not be in the main combat situation, instead choose the longer route around the place your team is headed to for example if you're a terrorist B or A bomb site, and take them out from behind, your objective here is to take out as many enemies as possible and divert their attention away from where they are headed so that your team is able to plant the bomb or protect the bomb site.

Due to the short range of most rushing weapons like the SMG and Shotguns, when you get caught between a person who has a longer range weapon than you, just hide and don't peek out ever.

Chances are, the enemy will come to you and here, you have the advantage, take him out with your superior CQB weapon.

So basically that concludes the end of my guide, i hope it helped you and increased your win rate for CSGO!

Btw you may want to try rushing first because rushing isn't for everyone, for the more passive players you may want to go with the rifles or the snipers.

Dota 2 - Basics of winning the Midlane

Usually when i play Dota 2 no matter if its captains mode or all pick(although i prefer captains mode) i would always bump into people picking pudge, which is usually used as a mid-laner, but honestly, i believe that he isn't really an optimal selection for mid laning.

Instead some good hero picks would include ranged heroes, like Outworld Devourer(OD)

-Zeus(Whereby his second skill would come in handy very usefully harassing the enemy team) 

-Viper( If you are just starting out mid laning in public servers PVP this newbie-friendly hero would be a good choice)

- Storm Spirit(My personal favourite, because of his spam-mable first skill, storm remnant, which is able to produce a clone that explodes when enemies gey close, and is also able to activate his painful passive overload which is able to throw a painful lightining attacks at the enemy which comes in handy alot when harassing enemies in the mid lane)

You may be wondering, why do i think pudge isn't really a good mid laner?

Well, its the fact that he's attacks are melee only, usually people who are cautious can quite easily escape his hooks in the mid lane. Plus, since i play storm, i can ball lightning out easily when hooked, usually in the early game, he's hooks aren't really that painful

Ok now down to item choices,

What you do with an intelligence hero like zeus is that you buy 1 null talisman early game, and use the rest of the money to buy clarity(No need for tangoes or salves because harassing is more important)

Then, you rush for another null talisman, by now your attack should be 70-80+ so by level 10 it will be 100+ 

Ok right here after your second null you need to choose between to rush for a bottle or arcane boots, usually ill get bottle because the extra movement speed doesn't really bother me.

After that you go and follow your specific item choices.

For Strength,

Get Bracer instead of null early game.

Gauntlet of strength is also a viable option.

For Agility,

Get slippers of agility instead of Null early game.

So,

Always harass the enemy, do not aim at collecting money, harass the enemy, after they back off, and start farming creeps, this way you are able to out farm the enemy and your chances of winning the lane is significantly increased.

Lastly, rune control

Rune control is very important, runes would always spawn when the laning phase ends(when the game starts and the timer reaches zero), so what you do is you can try to plant wards on the top and bottom part of the river(a picture description is put below to illustrate this), or you could just try your luck(Usually from my experience, runes feel like they more likely spawn on top even though they are random), runes would usually spawn 2 minutes after they are picked up, only 1 will spawn each time, if they are not picked up after their spawned, then the rune would remain there.

There are 3 types of runes.

Haste rune - Increases your movement speed significantly for a period of time.

Double Damage Rune - As you can see from the name it doubles total damage output, for a period of time.

Regeneration Rune - It significantly increases your health and mana regeneration rate until they are full, but beware if you get attacked in this period of time, it will interrupt your regeneration and abruptly stops it.
