I still use the guide for everything and especially drafting. Its like you have allways done of drafted something a certain way, thanks to this publication i finally know why i did it right or wrong

You should rename the title because every basic thing people need to know about general strategies, concepts and drafting is in this document. Its much more then only a supportguide.

Awesome, I'm late to the party on the E-Book but better late than never I say!

And now all you are missing is an audio-book version so people can be lazy and still get some of this juicy knowledge lol
I change during the course of a day. I wake and I'm one person, and when I go to sleep I know for certain I'm somebody else

this really helped me. on my descision making as a support.
i may not be on the pro-support level but this guide helped me become a better support.
anyways this should also be recommended to drafters. it will help them most.
Support? Offlane? Mid? Carry? Hell with that, a good player is a good player regardless of the role

This is a phenomenal guide. Bumping it because every player should be required to read this before starting up dota 2 for the first time. Well done man.

Thanks for your effort to the scene and community

Just rediscovered the old PDF for this. A shame that the Roshan pit has since been moved plus plenty of other map changes, but still plenty of awesome information here. I hope it gets updated one day.

If this was posted October 2014, then the last patch before this post was 6.82 when they introduced the once-insane comeback mechanic and we are now at 6.88.
