moronic question, but how do you set it to quickast?
also, can anyone write some general (short one) "guide" regarding what should you be doing in the early game or so? por favor :D
love meepo and played him a ton in dota 1, but i played him totally differently (and bad, trust me), but i don't "get" the meepo anymore.

for quick cast go to options then to the bit where you set your keybidings, below the keys for your skills are 3 options, CAST - AUTOCAST - QUICKCAST

just click quickcast then select which skill you want to have quick cast

you can generally kill your lane opponent at lvl 3-4 with net -> double poof -> net so just do that if they ever get too cocky whilst you yourself just keep farming up

(thats my early game)

yah .. sometimes even a 2v1 situation you can still win(well not so much 2v1 more like 2v2 :D)

what's your skillbuild when you get level 4 ? i always go 1-2-0-1

i normally take the 3rd skill after i maxed 2nd skill.

I go 1-2-0-1 as a standard aswell. If I am vs a guy that I can't kill i go earthbind though for the slightly quicker farming once I jungle.

I like one early point in Geostrike, usually at level 5, for that little bit of slow which can really help kills. Then max W, max Q and max E in that order, taking ult as it comes available. Unless I have to mid-battle skill something for a particular reason.

Another quick question. When you get second meepo, do oyu send him to the jungle (if yes, how do you farm? just poof or?), keep him on lane or? Sry if the question is stupid, just want to know what is the right approach to playing meepo.
btw, is the guide on 1st page still valid? i know he's been there quite some time.

As soon as you get the second meepo, send him to stack the hard camp. You can just use him to stack camps everywhere and then with lvl 3 or 4 in poof, easily clear them.

It depends. I usually just keep the 2nd meepo on the lane for a kill opportunity in mid and better laning.

When i see kill opportunites in the safelane or my team asks for ganks i send one meepo to that lane. Usually if i don't see any kill opportunity in the other lanes or mid is missing or i can't kill mid i send the main meepo(since i usually put PMS on the main meepo) to one of the medium camps.

When i play meepo i usually a lot than farm. So send one meepo with our supports most of the time.

You should just watch some meepo pro games(particularly C9 with sing, Fnatic with excalibur) since they play the hero better i think.

Or you could also watch the one suggested previous page. The chinese meepo player.

With my 2nd meepo I stack the hard camp closest to mid lane and position to help gank mid if the opportunity arises. Allows me to leech xp mid or take over the lane while they check runes or are waiting to respawn or whatever.

I avoid stacking medium camps since they spawn mud golems.

Just a quick note elaborating on one reason why I like one point of Geostrike before the max W and Q (i.e. level 5 1-2-1-1):
Meepo is one of the faster heroes in the game at 315. Only seven heroes are faster. These are LC, Naga, Pugna, CK, Druid, Skywrath and Luna.

With 1 point in Geostrike:
LC, Naga and Pugna drop to 304.
CK, Druid and Skywrath drop to 308.75.
Luna drops to 313.5.

Hence a single point makes every other hero's base speed slower than Meepo (though its marginal for Luna). Of course that doesn't guarantee anything, but if you can get on someone early on and keep hitting them then they can't get away without some kind of help. Its a nice threat to have in the toolbox.

As far as my second Meepo goes I like to keep it in lane and look for kills. Its when I have three I tend to start spreading around and stacking and all that stuff. As with my comment above about Geostrike I feel that for me the kill threat is more potent than just stacking because Meepo can be very dangerous when he has two Meepos up.

Thats so smart celestial, that you calculated all that stuff and skill meepo the way you do against those hero's.

I'm an excessively pedantic person tbh.

I'll admit something sometimes when i play meepo i max geostrike cause i get lazy tab-poofing sometimes in fights.

I know it's pretty stupid but i really get lazy and in some games where the enemy can't really deal with meepo well then i just max geostrike. Net someone then rightclick them to death.

Honestly thr biggest problem with not maxing poof first even at noob levels has less to do with team fights and more to do with farming. Meepo is one of the fastest farmers in the game and poof lets him be this way
