<p>As information and communication technology (ICT) plays more important role in recent years, the use of ICT tools and media is more common in learning language. One of ICT media  that is promising for language learning is online games because they facilitate incidental language learning as they inherently form part of reading, listening, speaking, and writing. This case study aims to investigate the opinion of gamers about the use of online game <em>Defense of the Ancient 2 (DoTA 2) </em>to learn language. Data were collected through field observation, semi-structured interview, and documentation. Two participants were interviewed.  The findings of this research is that <em>DoTA 2</em> supports incidental English language learning because it is easy to use and understand the langauge in the game platform;  the content encourages gamers to use English so that gamers learn new vocabularies and practice their English reading skill while playing; the social interaction through chat room and voice chat in planning strategies encorage gamers to communicate in English; the enjoyment from the motivation to win the game makes gamers practice English in team strategy discussion. However, <em>DoTA 2</em> only focuses on the action of strategies to win the game rather than intended interaction to learn language.</p>

Total of the students in this class is 21 students on the beginner level. The researchers conduct a cycle in this study, which consisted of reconnaissance, planning, enacting the plan and observing, and reflection. The result of the study showed that songs could improve students' pronunciation and confidence. Even, one of the very shy students in the class is enjoying the lessons; she can pronounce the vocabulary correctly and confidently.

In conducting the study, the researchers used a descriptive qualitative method using interviews to obtain data. The criterion used is English education students who study at the higher education level in Sintang. There are 6 (six) students or preservice teachers that the researchers chose as the participants.
