Opened 7 TI3 chests and got Unusual Trapjaw the Boxhound, was about to stop at 6 but then one more dropped on our last game of the evening and my friend dared me to open it, worth it.

And the chest serie before that I got both Mythicals from first two chests I opened.

High five Gaben, just never tell me how much money I've spent into your F2P game.

Hello,

I am thinking starting to play Dota 2, at least to try. If possible I would like to play a hero who, I woud say, has the same attributs and gameplay as the rogue in WoW or Assassin in Skryim (like weak but sneaky with a good agility and massive damages -from behind mb-). You got the idea.

What hero would you advice me ?

Thank you !

Rikimaru fits that description perfectly.

You want to play Riki or Bounty Hunter, both who fill that role in some way. However, you shouldn't get to focused on playing only one hero. The key to Dota 2 is playing all heroes and roles and filling in what your team needs. People who only play one hero are pretty limited and sometimes don't fit into a line up.

But give riki or bounty hunter a shot to cut your teeth on. They are good vs bots and a first game.

its so close to Rikimaru that it seems like a troll.

He is invis, He is weak, He does alot of dmg, He has a dmg bonus when behind the target.

Well there are those stereotype Rogues in pretty every [MMO]RPG these days. Be invisible, do backstab dmg, while being squishy is nothing out of the ordinary tbh.

I doubt it's a troll. That's an extremely common gaming trope, it's hard to find a rogue-ish type character that doesn't work like that nowadays.

Doesn't matter if you slithereen him before he rages, or just wait until he rages before you amplify, and stunlock him either way.

If it was a troll it would be like this:

Hey guys, I am thinking starting to play Dota 2, at least to try. If possible I would like to play a hero who has an emphasis on dexterity stats. I'd like the same attributs and gameplay as the rogue in WoW or Assassin in Skryim (kinda weak but sneaky with high agility and massive damages -from behind mb-). I wanna jump on peoples backs and slice them with my knife. I wanna be invisible, like, all the time. It would also be cool if I could make it so mages can't cast spells on me. And purple is my favorite color.

Is there any hero thats kinda fitting my playstyle?

So disappointing that Valve hasn't invested in teleporters and getting players their before hand. It disgusting that we have to wait a full 24 hours when they could have had this set up......

fuck it, I can't do this.

Setting shit up takes time and effort and flying players in also takes time. I'm glad the teams are getting some down time to think up new stuff and look at replays, too. It will be good to see what they come up with for the second round of games.

Im actually glad I AM getting a day off from 3-days of Dota2 already. It would be exhausting to watch 7 days straight.

Besides Riki you might also like Nyx. Not quite like rogue, but he has an invisibility skill and can do lots of burst damage (great ganker).
