Browse Dota 2 match formats
Dota 2 is a five-versus-five strategy title built around hero selection, lane control, objectives and destroying the opposing Ancient. Our lobby separates match winner, map winner and selected in-game objective markets when they are available. Draft choices matter because each hero brings a distinct role, from support control to late-game carry damage. Before entering a selection, you can compare the match format
and the listed market rules.
