Somebody mentioned AtoD? That gamemode seems so fun XD. I want it in matchmaking too

I think I'd give away huskar a lot. It is actually funny because there is a surprising amount of knowledge required to give the opponent heroes that are countered by heroes he has given you, while making sure that you are crafting a lineup with NO synergy and hopefully terrible lanes. Although I swear half my pub teammates are absolute naturals at crafting unplayably bad lineups.

As a newer player, I've been randoming every game. I'm starting to learn which heroes I like playing a little bit, to the point where I'm very good with 2 or 3 of them.

Should I keep randoming awhile longer, or start focusing in one one or two heroes?

Also, what is a good rule of thumb for what types of heroes to have on a 5 man team?


If you random, please do it before others pick or after first pick. This way rest of the team will more likely pick at least partially working lineup. It's pretty disastrous if your team needs a mid hero or lane support for example and you happen to random faceless void or something, I've seen randoming sometimes lead into full team of supports, it was pretty silly.

Generally I advise to do one of the following:
Random early.
Pick someone to compliment others' picks.
Pick a hero you really enjoy playing.

Don't hesistate to repick if you random a hero you absolutely loathe to play, I've noticed people generally play better when they can play heroes they like.

Unfortunately, I'm still too much of a noob to know which characters are carries and which are supports in many cases.

Looking at the "learn" tab, some are both! FML

PL makes all other hard carries obsolete in pubs seriously, no matter how well you do on one carry in terms of early game farm kills etc etc you are always better off being PL. Once you get like two items the game is pretty much won.

This is low bracket now but still pubstomper extraordinaire.

Zorkmid check out my Support guide in strategy section to have a look of the support heroes. And that reminds me that I need to finish the update asap....

Does anyone know if there is any plan to implement visible auras in Dota2? A visually pleasing and highly practical effect I miss from WC3....
Time held me green and dying though I sang in my chains like the sea.

I'm a new user so I can't just make threads yet, so someone please make thread about this: https://twitter.com/RyzeDota (scroll down a bit, Ryze asks Sundance that he heard MLG is gonna pick up Dota 2 in early 2013, sundance says it has a lot of potential.)

From what i heard is that they haven't implemented the aura effects, think they want to avoid visual clusterfck issues so they rather not doing them for now.

I've lost a lot with farmed PL lately.

o.O His... fuck I'm not allowed to call it "Q"... ummmm k his "lance" (and of course the illusion it spawns) is stronger than most heroes once you have heart/radi/diffusal. And its on like a 6 second cooldown.
