I'm so envious of you, but I can rival you in the excitement department as I literally woke up 20min into that game and had just enough time to watch it whole before leaving to work.

THAT is how you start a good day :D

This entire tournament has just been fantastic. Well and truly converted me over as a fan, and I'm not gonna lie: perhaps it's the unprecedented atmosphere, production, talent, teams, hype, novelty (to me), and plays, but I don't know how...

...well, you know what, no "perhaps", no "I don't know"s. TI3 doesn't deserve any wishy-washy words. It's really won me over, period, end, full stop. Simply unbelievable. SCAlso has paled a little in comparison for me. Might just be all of the amazing things that have happened while there isn't anything particularly big or hyped (alright, WCS, but I have to admit that I've watched nary a single full series...) that has happened, while it's such a big event for Dota 2. Seriously though, so freaking amazing.

God, I haven't felt this excited about competitive gaming in a long time.

After watching some TI3 I'm going to give Dota2 a chance too. I enjoy SC2 alright but nowhere near as much as I enjoyed BW. Dota2 seems scary as hell to learn though, so many heroes and items and combinations.

If you dive in and play it you'll pick things up fairly quickly. You may not be a pro but you'll understand what the commentators are talking about.

Learning DotA is really hard and will probably end up being a miserable experience for the first few weeks. However, if you dedicate yourself to it and work on improving it is immensely rewarding. Nothing really beats the feeling of a hard fought victory against an evenly matched team

TI is simply astoundingly intense and amazing, it portrays what every true dota fan has felt many times sitting alone by themselves watching great games during its history.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

You haven't seen Na'Vi's Naga counter in TI2 I'm guessing?

remember: you suck at Dota.

You can start playing Botgames (5 humans vs. 5 bots / chose between 5 difficulties) - you will have more time to read the spell/item descriptions and get comfortable with the game mechanics. After you learned the basics, start with real games. Learn timings, remember ward spots, watch the minimap for ganks, call miss and try to predict your oponents next move. Oh well, and dont forget to lasthit or deny, while controlling your lane or pull creeps to the jungle (to deny exp to the enemy), if you are not stacking the camps.

Also remember: have fun (play with friends).
