Know the Different Types of MOBA and Battle Royale Game Games

The type of game genre most loved in the era of mobile gadgets today is the MOBA game. MOBA itself is a type / genre of online multiplayer games in which online gamers are generally divided into two groups of opposing camps in a battle map (map). Briefly in English, MOBA means "Multiplayer Online Battle Arena". Besides MOBA there is also a genre of game that is much in demand by millennials, namely the "Battle royale game" genre. Examples of types of battle royale games are PUBG games, while examples of MOBA games are Mobile Legend (ML). Then, what are the differences between MOBA and Battle Royale Games? In this holiday post plengdut will be reviewed the difference between Battle Royale Game and the MOBA.

Online Multiplayer Battle Arena (MOBA)

Is AOS or Aeon of Strife became the first game to use the MOBA genre. AOS itself is actually a creation of a map of Starcraft games made by Blizzard Entertainment. Starcraft is a game with a setting of star wars, where the developer (Blizzard Entertainment) always has a characteristic in each game by providing a map editor for players to be able to be creative to make the game map as desired. The MOBA map only boomed after Blizzard launched the game Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos which revolves around the war between orcs, fairies, human nations and undeaths (demons) by including Icefrog's MOBA map in this game (2003).

The MOBA map in Warcraft is named "Defense of the Anciets" and is known to the public through its abbreviation, the DoTA game. For gamers who want to play MOBA DOTA that year, they must install warcraft first with the requirements of the Intel® Pentium® D or AMD ™ Athlon ™ 64 X2 and VGA minimum NVIDIA® GeForce PCs; 6800 (256MB) or ATI ™ HD 3650 Pro (256MB) or greater above and 2GB of PC memory and hard disk space for this game 3GB. So friends can imagine how expensive the pc needs at that time in order to feel the sensation of MOBA DoTA, plus at that time there was no hard drive with a size of 1 tera as it is now, the highest capacity hard disks that are generally sold are 40GB.

It was through this DoTA that the MOBA tournament was held for the first time precisely in the game Warcraft III: Frozen Throne. The term MOBA tournament or competition is currently known as eSports or electronic sports. On July 9, 2013, DoTA was officially taken over by Valve and apart from Blizzard by the name of DoTA 2 and design developers, Icefrog still held it. The height of the MOBA game makes game developers vying to make MOBA games, call it LOL (League of Legends-2009), Arena of Valor and many other types of MOBA games.

The presence of smartphone gadgets causes PCs to be left behind, although there are still many advantages of PCs / laptops that cannot be done by mobile phones. Smart phone users continue to increase because they are more active outside the home while accessing the internet via mobile while being mobile. This is a new opportunity for game developers MOBA version to expand their wings on smart phones like Android and iPhone. Various MOBA games also appear in the mobile version, call it MOBA such as Moonton's Mobile Legends Bang Bang which is loved by millennials and has a cross-country esports event that is routinely held every year. There is also AOV, Vainglory and many more MOBA mobile versions.

Characteristics of MOBA

Arena MOBA

Generally the arena map or MOBA map has the characteristics of the same shape between the enemy area and the player base area (mirrored map) with 3 lanes or commonly called lines. The third line is the top line (Top line), the bottom line (Bottom line) and the middle line (Middle line).

Each MOBA line has towers, 3 towers on the enemy lines and 3 towers on the player's line before entering their respective base areas. Between the lines of the line there is a forest or usually called the jungle that can be used by players to cut the road so that the enemy is not visible or just looking for monsters (farming) to increase the coffers of money so that items can be bought.

MOBA Heroes Characters

The MOBA feature can also be seen from the choice of heroes / heroes / characters that the players will later choose. Usually there are 6 types of heroes to choose from, viz

1. Fighter or heroes MOBA fighter, usually have the ability to fight at close range (malee fighter).
2. Magic (Magi) is a hero with a magic skill.
3. Marksman (Mm) is an archer / shooter or known as heroes range.
4. Assassins are a reconnaissance type where these heroes are able to attack quickly and disappear / run fast too, but have a low hp.
5. Tank are a type of heroes with large (immunity) cell phones, generally used as opening attacks or covering up teams from attacks, but have low attack power.
6. Support is the MOBA hero heroes character, generally the skill support is more on healing (healing), disable (silent) so that the enemy cannot issue the skill, and stun (stopper) makes the enemy stop moving so that the team can easily attack.

MOBA game system

Beginning the MOBA game, players will choose the type of heroes from the 6 kinds of MOBA heroes as plengdut.com explained above, according to their team's needs. There are a total of 10 MOBA players in one arena with each team of 5 people. The players will later occupy each line according to the strategy used, where in addition to the players there is the support of small troops who come to attack according to the line and appear at certain time intervals. Player's Heroes can be strengthened by buying items provided in the game. To buy items, players can collect money / coins by killing jungle monsters, destroying enemy towers, killing heroes and opposing forces.

MOBA in order to achieve victory, each team that fights must hurry to destroy the base building / opponent's base. But there are also other MOBA modes where the battle takes place with the specified time, and the winner is calculated based on the number of enemy kill heroes or base destroyed before the game time runs out. There is also a one-way / line map MOBA mode such as Brawl mode on Mobile Legends.

Different MOBA and Battle Royale Game

PUBG is an example of the Battle Royale genre game. Although MOBA and Battle Royale look similar, where players group in teams and fight each other in an arena / map, but there are striking differences from the two games, namely:

1. Battle Royale in one game played with the number of players can reach 100 people with each team totaling 5 members. Whereas Moba in one game can only be played by 10 people who are divided into two teams with each team member is 5 players.
2. MOBA battle arenas are generally monotonous with the same map scheme in each game. Unlike the Battle Royale game with a large map arena, resembling a map of the city including rivers, mountains and oceans, so that it can accommodate hundreds of players to be more free to move.
3. The battle royal game system is the "last stand team" or the last surviving team is the winner, while the MOBA system is the team that first destroys the opponent's building is the winner.
4. Battle royal game is also called a competition game or "elimination", where if a team member is injured it must be quickly healed by other team members and if not healed then the team member will die and will not rise again until the game is finished or the team is destroyed in defeat another team. In contrast to MOBA, if a team member dies, then within the specified time interval will rise again because the MOBA system is not elimination but who first destroys the opponent's base, so before the goal is reached, the dead team will rise again.
5. The choice of MOBA player character is provided based on the skills possessed such as fighter, mage, assassin, tank and support, while the battle royal game, the player's character is not determined and can be built up by players using items, for example being a sniper, healer etc..
6. Battle royale requires a larger gadget resource than MOBA, as well as the internet needed for more connections because loading maps are bigger in battle royale than MOBA.

So you can adjust what games you will play according to the capacity of the gadget and the availability of the internet you have, want MOBA or Battle Royale Games?

The new female heroes in the Lokapala MOBA game are Marksman and Mage

In order to welcome the release of Lokapala MOBA, which was most likely to be carried out in early 2020, Anantarupa Studio began to give a little picture of what the heroes in the Lokapala MOBA game: Saga of the Six Realms. After previously they collaborated with one of the local airlines and Ragasukma comics, this time Lokapala presented two new MOBA heroes with roles Support and Marksman.

Through their Lokapala Instagram account they officially introduce the two new heroes. In the post also mentioned a description of the profile that became the origin of the two Lokapala heroes. In terms of appearance Neera is portrayed as a Lokapala female knight with the appearance of a mage, most likely when viewed from the profile of this one hero will be equipped with stun and buff skills that are useful for the fight team. As for Sena, Anantarupa's party seemed to be inspired by one of Srikandi's knights, where Sena was depicted as a woman armed with arrows. Interestingly the design of Sena itself looks futuristic with additional shoulder and clothing safety that makes it look more manly.

With the release of Nerra, Sena, Ilya, Gia, and the nine heroes which is a collaboration between Ragasukma Comics and Anantarupa Studio, so far Lokapala already has a roster of 13 heroes. Interestingly the four heroes that have been confirmed to be present in the Lokapala MOBA game are all women.

New MOBA Mobile Game from Megaxus Legend of Kingdoms

At present there are already many MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games for mobile platforms available such as Arena of Valor, Mobile Legends, Vainglory, Onmyoji Arena, to the Indonesian-made MOBA game, Lokapala. At the end of 2019, PT Megaxus Infotech or better known as Megaxus, announced its newest mobile game which will soon be launched under the title Legend of Kingdoms (or abbreviated "LOKI"). Megaxus which is one of the well-known game publishers in Indonesia certainly does not want to be left behind by the MOBA game trend. Just now it has officially announced its newest MOBA mobile game, Legend of Kingdoms. This game carries the Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) genre, where 10 players who are divided into 2 teams will try their strategies and skills to win the battle.

Currently the Legend of Kingdoms (LOKI) game MOBA has entered the pre-registration stage on the Google Play Store. Later users who pre-register will get a prize that is quite interesting. Like the MOBA game in general, this Legend of Kingdoms will still fight 10 players who are divided into two teams. Each player has one goal, namely to destroy the tower to penetrate the enemy base.

The heroes provided by this game also have a royal theme. Later there are heroes like those found in the game Three Kingdoms. Of course this makes this game different from other MOBA games. Like DotA 2, this Legend of Kingdoms game will also present items in the form of ward to help players find out the enemy location. Then there is a courier system that is practically similar to the one in the DotA 2 game.

Uniquely, in the Game of Legend of Kingdoms, players can choose various legendary heroes from the Three Kingdoms era who came from China legend kingdoms and also from other kingdoms. Besides Legend of Kingdoms has features that are not found in other MOBA mobile games that have been circulating at this time, such as Ward, Sentry, and Courier features. Starting today, pre-registration of Legend of Kingdoms has been opened on the Google Play Store. Apart from the Google Play Store, players can also pre-register from the official website of Legend of Kingdoms. A variety of attractive prizes have also been prepared for players who pre-register. The more number of players who pre-register, the more prizes players will get.

The launch of Legend of Kingdoms is planned to be carried out in early 2020, for the Android and IOS platforms. "Currently our team is preparing to launch Legends of Kingdoms as well as possible to ensure the game can be played smoothly and the features available in the game can be enjoyed to the fullest when it is launched later," said Bambang Budiman, Megaxus's Senior Content Manager.

Factors Influencing Efficacy of Sterilization and Disinfection antimicrobial agent is affected by at following factors

DEFINITIONS

Sterilization: It is the process by which all living microorganisms including viable spores, are destroyed with reduction of at least 106 log colony forming units (CFU) of microorganisms and their spores. Disinfection: It refers to a process that destroys or removes most if not all pathogenic organisms but not bacterial spores with reduction of at least 103 log CFU of microorganism but not spores. Asepsis: It is a process where the chemical agents (called antiseptics) applied to body surfaces (skin) will kill or inhibit the pathogenic microorganisms (and also commensals) present on skin. 

Decontamination (or Sanitization): It refers to the reduction of pathogenic microbes to a level at which items are considered as safe to handle without protective attire with reduction of at least 1 log CFU of microorganism but not spores.

Factors Influencing Efficacy of Sterilant/Disinfectant

The efficiency of a sterilant/disinfectant antimicrobial agent is affected by at following factors:

1.Organism load: Larger microbial population requires a longer time to die than a smaller one.

2. Nature of organisms: It greatly influences the efficacy of the disinfectants

3. Concentration of the chemical agent and temperature of the physical agent

4. Nature of the sterilant/disinfectant:

• Microbicidal ability, Rapidity of action, Residual activity.
• Ability to act in presence of organic matter such as pus, blood, and stool.

5. Duration of exposure: More is the exposure time, better is the efficacy.

6. pH: Heat kills more readily at an acidic pH

7. Biofilm formation: Prevents the entry of disinfectants.

Microbial pathogenicity; Toxin, Cell, Protein

Microbial pathogenicity depends upon the sum total of several factors as described below.

1. Route of transmission of infection 

2. Infective dose of the organism: Minimum inoculum size that is capable of initiating an infection. (table given below)

Low infective dose	Large infective dose
Shigella: Very low (as low as 10 bacilli)	Escherichia coli  (106 – 108 bacilli)
Cryptosporidium parvum: very low (10 to 30 oocysts)	Salmonella (102 – 105  bacilli)
Escherichia coli O157: H7  (< 10 bacilli)	Vibrio cholerae (106 – 108 bacilli)
Entamoeba and Giardia: few cysts
Campylobacter jejuni (500 bacilli)

3. Evasion of the local defenses

4. Adhesion: By Fimbriae or pili, other adhesins, biofilm formation

5. Invasion: Virulence factors that help in invasion include:

• Virulence marker antigen or invasion plasmid antigens in Shigella
• Enzymes: Invasion of bacteria is enhanced by many enzymes: Hyaluronidase, Collagenase, Streptokinase (fibrinolysin) and IgA proteases
• Antiphagocytic factors: Capsule
• Cell wall protein such as: Protein A of Staphylococcus aureus and M protein of Streptococcus pyogenes
• Cytotoxins: Interfere with chemotaxis or killing of phagocytes. For example, S. aureus produces hemolysins and leukocidins that lyse and damage RBCs and WBCs.

Mechanism of intracellular survival	Organism
Inhibition of  phagolysosome fusion	Legionella species, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Chlamydia
Resistance to lysosomal enzymes	Salmonella Typhimurium, Coxiella, Mycobacterium leprae, Leishmania
Adaptation to cytoplasmic replication	Listeria, Rickettsia and Francisella tularensis

Examples of Obligate intracellular organism include:

• Bacteria: Mycobacterium leprae, Rickettsia, Chlamydia and Coxiella
• All viruses
• Fungi: Pneumocystis jirovecii
• Parasite: Toxoplasma, Cryptosporidium, Plasmodium, Leishmania, Babesia, Trypanosomacruzi

Differences between bacterial endotoxins and exotoxins

Endotoxins	Exotoxins
Lipopolysaccharides in nature	Protein in nature
Part of Gram-negative bacterial cell wall	Secreted both by Gram-positive and negative bacteria; diffuse into surrounding medium
Released by cell lysis, Not by secretion	Actively secreted by the bacteria
Highly stable	Heat labile destroyed at 60°C
Mode of action – Induces ↑IL-1 and TNF	Mostly enzyme like action
Nonspecific (fever, shock, etc.)	Specific action on particular tissues
No specific affinity for tissues	Specific affinity for tissues
Only large doses are fatal	More potent, even smaller doses fatal
Poorly antigenic	Highly antigenic
Neutralization by antibodies is ineffective	Neutralized by specific antibodies
No effective vaccine is available using endotoxin	Toxoid forms are used as vaccine, e.g. tetanus toxoid

Exotoxins and their mechanisms of action

Toxins (Exotoxins)	Mechanism
Enterotoxin and TSST of S.aureus Streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin	Act as super antigen; stimulate T cell non-specifically, to release of large amounts of cytokines.
Diphtheria toxin and Exotoxin-A of Pseudomonas	Inhibits protein synthesis (by inhibiting elongation factor-2)
Anthrax toxin	↑cAMP in target cell, edema
α toxin  of Clostridium perfringens	Lecithinase and phospholipase activity → causes myonecrosis
Tetanus toxin (tetanospasmin)	Decrease in neurotransmitter (GABA and glycine) release from the inhibitory neurons → Spastic paralysis
Botulinum toxin	Decrease in neurotransmitter (acetyl choline) release from neurons → Flaccid paralysis
Heat labile toxin of ETEC and Cholera toxin (V.cholerae)	Activation of adenylate cyclase → ↑cAMP in target cell → Secretory diarrhea
Heat stable toxin Verocytotoxin (EHEC) and  Shiga toxin (Shigella dysenteriae type-1)	↑cGMP in target cell → Secretory diarrhea
Diphtheria toxin and Exo toxin -A of Pseudomonas	Inhibit protein  synthesis (by inhibiting ribosome)

What are the characteristics of epidermal tissue explained?

Epidermal tissue has the following characteristics.

1. Generally epidermal consists of one layer of cells. An example is the velamen cells in the orchid root.
2. Epidermal having cells that are tightly arranged without intercellular space.
3. The shape of cells varies, for example tubular shape on dicot leaf leaves, elongated shape on epidermal cells of monocot leaf leaves and hexagonal shape on Aloe cristata leaf strands.
4. Cells epidermal have many vacuoles and protoplasts which store various metabolic products.
5. The thickness of the epidermal cell wall varies. The seeds and leaves of coniferous plants have very thick cell walls.
6. There are epidermal cell walls that contain lignin, cuticles, and pectin. In plants that live in dry habitats, epidermal cell walls have thick cuticles. On the cuticle surface there are wax deposits, causing the leaves and fruit to look shiny. The waxy coating is very important to keep the organ moist.
7. Epidermal initial cells can partially develop and modify into other additional devices called derivatives, epidermis, such as stomata (leaf mouths), trichomes (hairs), emergencies, spines (thorns), germ cells (germ cells) silica), velamen, and litokis.

Phospholipids are the main component of the plasma membrane; What are the characteristics of phospholipids?

Phospholipids are the main component of the plasma membrane, the outermost layer of animal cells. Like fat, phospholipids are made up of chains of fatty acids attached to the glycerol backbone. Unlike triglycerides, which have three fatty acids, phospholipids have two fatty acids which help form diacylglycerol. The third carbon glycerol backbone is also occupied by modified phosphate groups.

However, only the phosphate groups bound to diacylglycerol do not qualify as phospholipids. This will be considered a phosphatidate (diacylglycerol 3-phosphate), the predecessor of phospholipids. To qualify as a phospholipid, the phosphate group must be modified by alcohol. Phosphatidyl choline and Phosphatidylserine are examples of two important phospholipids found in the plasma membrane. 

The characteristics of phospholipids are:

1. Phospholipids are the main component of membranes.
2. Phospholipids are lipid compounds. They contain other than fatty acids and glycerol / or other alcohols, phosphoric acid residues, nitrogen-containing bases, and other substituents.
3. Phospholipids can be considered as derivatives of phosphatidic acid, in which phosphate is esterified with -OH from the corresponding alcohol.
4. Phospholipids are amphiphatic molecules containing polar heads and hydrophobic parts.
5. Phospholipids are amphiphatic molecules, polar heads formed by alcohols, phosphoric acids and nitrogen bases, hydrophobic parts formed by fatty acids.

Bacteria Anatomy: A bacterium is a unicellular microorganism that has no other membrane-bound nuclei or organelles

Germs ... fleas ... prokaryotes ... monera. Whatever you call it, bacteria outnumber any other type of life on this planet. In this article, we will look at small creatures to determine exactly what they are, as well as the human methods that we do not significantly use to try and classify them.

Definition / General Anatomy

A bacterium is a unicellular microorganism that has no other membrane-bound nuclei or organelles. Bacteria are sometimes called 'prokaryotes.' In Greek, 'prokaryote' literally means 'before seeds' (where 'seeds' are the core.) Bacteria adapt to be suitable for their environment, and therefore come in various forms and form. However, they all have some parts in common.

1. Capsules: A protective, often slimy, coating, often of sugar, which helps protect bacteria. This also makes bacteria deadly. This means that bacteria are more likely to cause disease, because they help cells survive attacks. For example, bacteria can survive attacks from the human immune system.
2. Cell walls: In bacteria, cell walls are usually made of peptidoglycan, proteins and complex sugars. This structure gives cells some rigidity and protection.
3. Cell membrane: As in most cells, the bacteria plasma membrane acts by coordinating parts of the molecule into and out of the cell.
4. Cytoplasm: Again, as in most cells, cytoplasm functions as the medium in which the molecules are transported, as well as a system to maintain the best conditions (such as temperature and pH) for the cell.
5. Ribosomes: The main site for bacteria protein synthesis.
6. Number six is "nucleosomes." This term will not be discussed in this article.
7. Nucleoid: this is the area where bacteria DNA is located. Again, it's not the same as the core because it's not surrounded by a membrane.
8. Flagella: In many bacteria, flagella are present, and are the means by which cells move around.

Bacteria Classification: A Brief History

Because bacteria are very diverse both in shape and habitat, biologists have struggled with their classification, (also called "taxonomies." They) For many years, bacteria were called "monera," and were placed in a kingdom of the same name. Although you may still hear bacteria referred to as monera, that is not a term currently accepted among biologists.

Life is now classified into one of three domains, the domain is a higher taxonomic level than the kingdom, and is based on the DNA of an organism. Bacteria take two of three domains: archaebacteria and eubacteria. (The third domain, eukaryotes, consists of organisms that have nucleated cells.)

Archaebacteria

Although their name might imply the opposite, archaebacteria are not older than other bacteria. They share some unusual characteristics that distinguish them from most bacteria. archaebacteria:

• Lack of peptidoglycan on their cell walls
• Has lipids (fat molecules) that are unique in structure.
• Often live in extreme conditions (such as high salt or environmental heat,) and are able to create and use energy from sources such as hydrogen gas.

Eubacteria

Eubacteria are much better learned from archaebacteria. Scientists try to understand the number and diversity of these organisms by grouping them in various ways. The following are just a few of the ways that are accepted in the scientific and medical community:

1. Shape: Bacteria are usually one of three forms. Round cocci, rod-shaped bacilli, spirilla (also called spiroket) are spirals.
2. Gram staining: One of the more interesting ways that group bacterial scientists is how they react to Gram staining. In this process, bacteria are subject to chemical stains. The color of bacterial stains depends on the number of peptidoglycan in the cell wall. In Gram-positive cells, the peptidoglycan layer is thick, and cells are purple, in Gram-negative cells the layer is thinner, and cells are pink.
3. Antibiotic sensitivity: Peptidoglycan also plays a role in how some types of effective drugs are to help the body eliminate bacterial infections. Some antibiotics work by preventing peptidoglycan from forming properly, enabling the immune system to work more efficiently when wiping out an infection.
4. Oxygen needs: Some bacteria, aerobes, need oxygen to carry out their daily metabolic processes. Others, like those who live in the human digestive tract, do not. This organism is called anaerobic.
5. Nutrition: Some autotrophic bacteria, which means they can make their own food. Others are heterotrophs who need outside sources of nutrition.

Again, these are just a few of the ways we classify bacteria. Other ways include their habitat, if they cause disease or are harmless, even whether they are helpful to humans or not.

Summary

Bacteria are single-celled organisms that have no nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles. Bacteria are everywhere, that is, they are found in every environment on Earth, and are very diverse. They have historically been classified using different characteristics, but most biologists today agree that, based on their DNA, they belong to two of the three recognized domains: archaebacteria and eubacteria. We can then continue their groups in other ways, such as whether they cause illness or not, or how they get their food.
