Laning LD offlane is hard for me because I don't know when and how to pull aggro shenanigans to my tower.

Play only LD for 30 games. I think about 30 games is the sweet spot for getting a pretty good understanding of a hero.

BB is under rated in all ways.


I actually disagree with this, u max slow first because at lv 3 it goes to -2 armor per stack

I am more interested in securing farm in the off lane than killing shit. It makes the rest of the game easier and the slow doesn't help me not die.

Has this been posted? Can't wait for Legion Commander~ haha as a person who stopped playing dota sometime around pit lord's addition to the game, it was fun seeing the heroes i hadn't played with as much being a bit explained (the descriptions can only tell you so much..) he kinda gets creepy at legion commander and the video quality isn't the best but still short and nice~

I can't wait for Tresdina, the legion commandress.
Everything about the hero screams manfight. Reminds me of ye goode olde times when people would argue after a pub about why it's not their fault they lost and inevitably one would go "1v1 at top rune, no allies"

I may have nostalgia glasses on, but I think I even learned a bit from those fights. Both go in completely confident they're farmed enough to win any 1v1, one goes out with new perspective one hero matchups gained.

I still remember my first games of dota, where I thought items like sacred relic were jokes put into the game for the laugh value. As if anybody could ever get 3800 gold hahahaha. Good thing I had cheats .

(These were like me and my brother playing bot maps ofc. Not like Bnet hax)

I'd also always go to lane with headdress (it cost exactly 603 gold!) and it never occurred to me that holy knight could dominate jungle creeps not just lane creeps (I wasn't too sure why the jungle existed tbh). Those were the days.

Actually, finding the secret shop was not a repeatable process for the first few games LOL.

Knowing about the secret shop was so good. Only pros knew the "secret" in dota! so imba!

I can't really think of a situation where I would max Goo over Quills and Bristleback first.

No one ever taught me anything about dota until I started dota 2 back in november/december-ish of last year. Thus, I developed my skill extremely slowly, especially since I had no access to internet while I played. First of all, i never actually learned to last hit, especially since the only version I had was so old that there was no animation that you got gold. Second, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how the recipe system worked, so I would buy the most expensive items available (ultimate orbs). Then, one day, I discovered the secret shop, and bought nothing but relics. Eventually, I learned the importance of regen (I played a lot of bloodseeker), and started buyign ring of healths, and one day accidentally purchased a perseverance. I found that extremely cool, which began the era of 6 perseverance builds. Naturally, the next item I accidentally bought was a bloodstone. My main strat was a 6 bloodstone sniper push strat, since he outranged towers. When I finally figured out the recipe system, I started with only boots and rushed boots of travel because I wanted to save money. For this reason, I began playing bloodseeker again. However, by the summer before I started playing dota 2, I was actually starting to slowly grasp concepts of the game and began to experiment with different item builds (yes, I built dagon a lot). Then, I began to research dota 2, found out one of my friends played it, got some more friends to join, and researched the heck out of the game. And now I still suck, but at least now I know I suck.

Also, the game version I played on was very old. Nightstalker's silence had no effect during day time because "Enemies don't fear Balanar during the day!"

Edit: Sorry got nostalgic...

@GtC don't be sorry that stuff's sweet.

@ahswtini no idea I'm guessing we have to wait for 6.79 then parity before new hero but who knows. Legion Commander was supposed to be essentially complete pre TI3 and that was in August.
