I was in a game which both sides have mega creeps. Occasionally there are heroes which can stop megacreeps, as far as I recall.

Sweet intro. Dota seems like an insanely hard game to play, but guides like this make it a lot more accessible to everyone ^_^

Good guide, but i feel like last-hitting/denying should have been mentioned as well.

Nice blog ! I would not say that creep pulling is part of basic dota knowledge
But it is indeed a core mechanic of thé game.
Looking forward to meet some liquidians on dota2 !

DOTA from WC3 was one of the funnest games I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Playing it for years in and out of WoW, I got to experience how it evolved from developer to developer. Icefrog was a champ, he championed balancing rather than adding stupid flash like HoN has done. More power to him and I KNOW DOTA2 will outclass HoN, it's because of who's behind it.

Great guide/blog.
This will help people that come from LoL or people that are completely new to DotA a lot.

I hope a lot of people get to play DotA2 since playing DotA was an amazing experience for me.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

That means post #3 (which in reality is post 2 because the OP counts as post 1) has won the contest! Congratulations to Taanstafl, I'll send you your key right now.

Wow, thanks everyone. Fun fact: this contest was held, almost to the day (off by one), on the anniversary of the last time I won something on TL (I won a shirt in one of the weekly contests). Clearly, their random number generator is smiling down on me. Thanks Nazgul!
