Watching Dota 2 today the lanes (number of people in them) and roamers/junglers(?) seemed to differ quite a lot in every game. How does laning work in Dota? They vary a ton, but the two most common are probably 1 Off / 1 Mid / 1 Roam or Jungle / 1 Safelane Support / 1 Safelane carry 1 Off / 1 Mid / 2 Safe Support / 1 Safe Carry These are also fairly common though 2 Off / 1 Mid / 2 Safe 3 Off / 1 Mid / 1 Safe 1 Off / 2 Mid / 2 Safe happens as well, but it is pretty damn rare. It really depends on the match-ups. Some carries require babysitting so you're going to have 1-2 supports in the lane. Some can hold their own, such as a razor, so supports can go to the offlane to try and shut down the enemy carries. Someone found the first page of this thread ![]() LOL.

against certain heroes just farm up well and bully people out of the lane. extra emphasis on the bullying. get items that make you run and hit fast such as mom/sny and then follow up with a bkb and then whatever the hell you want. then just run around hitting people all day as long as you can catch up to people after they throw some cc's at you, they cant run after that and you can take all the time you want to him them to death | ||

It can be pretty fun if you get a good start, at lvl 6 you can tower dive like mad with 1-3-1-1 and OoV. But often you wont get that much farm in offlane of course too. | ||
