The only time I ever pick ember is when someone picks PL.

When I see a PL/Naga pick; I just play Alchemist and get Battlefury. Not the best hero, but with Mjollnir; I knock that shit out.

not sure if this is the right place to ask sth like this.

If you pick Lycan, you can knock down towers without your idiot team mates who refuse to group up.

The struggle is real. Don't judge me.

I mean knocking down the towers isn't the hard part, Lesh/Pugna and others can do that quite easily. Its the get-out-of-jail free part after knocking down those towers

I need that, I'm all alone out there. These fools just farm until thy get jumped by 5 people.

Yesterday I played with a PA that wanted to gank blood seeker. I was venge and felt we had all the tools necessary to kill BS. I get into position to swap stun him......

And PA walks up to him and just starts auto attacking. He uses rupture and she blinks like 10 feet to the nearest creep and explodes in a bloody mass.

I just laughed and wished I has picked Lycan.

Hmmm, was hoping for some sort of "BS silenced the PA, got crit for 2K" story.

That would have been way better, but sadly PA just panicked blew herself up. I really wanted a button that says "give men that hero, you clearly don't know what you are doing."

not sure if this is the right place to ask sth like this.

I mean,someone would really have to put a lot of time into teaching you stuff.
If you don't understand something ask but I really doubt you will be able to find someone who will willingly play games with you and explain stuff because that would take a unreasonable amount of time.
just learn on your own is my best advice and watch streams,if you see something that you don't understand why people are doing you can ask here,its much easier to answer a specific question than trying to explain stuff like "how to support" or "how to play offflane"
most stuff is really just experience based

With 30 hours of dota play your problems are still in the area of "oh what does this hero do again?" and "what was that item?"
if you get what I mean,there's too much information to absorb at this point for someone to "mentor" you,just play on your own for a while or get other friends that just started and play with them.

k, thanks.
after my games i just have some questions but you are probably right that just knowing how each hero (and other basic stuff) is played is enough information for me.

You can also try purge's youtube videos. I think those are a pretty good font of information.
Every night I pray for TL to give me my SAD Boys flair, and every morning I wake up disappointed.

At least with Lycan you have the option to murder them 1v4 as opposed to just running away like Furion / Morph or winning through sheer frustration with Naga / PL

Obligatory reminder that rabbit ended a game 17-0 as morphling and lost. That hero kills heroes.
