Sven doesn't deal most damage, warden does.


Sven deals most damage to buildings. Warden's criticals are useless against it.

And as a nerubian assassin + sniper player, I can tell you those 2 characters are rigged!

I achieve a 80% win rate with NA, and a 88% win rate with Sniper.
It's all in the micro!

I always start out with ring of basilius, and then grab a ring of health. Those give me a tactical advantage, as well as an advantage in pushing. Thus, I can focus on enemy hero harass using mana burn or just plain walking up to him/her and making a hit. When I have enough mana to go in for the kill, I do it. If I don't have the mana, I stay in harass mode.

I have an affinity towards playing STR heroes, because I like the micro intensivity of it. Panda is definitely my favourite. I generally use his ultimate to make kills during a 2v1 gank. Cyclone one, kill the other. And then run like a pansy. I dislike INT the most because of their overly simplisitic way of killing things. I enjoy AGI heroes such as NA, Sniper, PA, AM, SA, BH, and etc...

I like how easy it is for Phantom Assassin to become tanked!
But I hate how she can lose that so easily to a few blademails...
She becomes useless once a STR hero wears 2-3 of them! Doing so much damage back to yourself, and the STR hero has more HP too.

But definitely, STR is the way to go! Most challenging, most rewarding.
I was thinking about joining a debate club, but I was talked out of it.

na for me is so pointless, you waste all your mana to get one kill early

none of your heroes will hold up in a league game =P with the exception of maybe am. there are definitely ways around each and every one of them. teamwork > individual heroes. however i think lich vs sniper is a good middle matchup, if the sniper is good.

You're not forgetting that Sniper has IMBA Range, do you?
And I also think that 1-1 most IMBA hero is Bane Elemental.

Edit: Wanna try Sniper-Lich?

1v1 bane is overlooked hardest solo by alot of players, he has a sleep that can kill a gank attempt, a nuke that kills the early int nukers, his ulti of course kills anybody that gets greedy enough to try to attack you infront of tower/creeps.
lich is hard since he doesn't lapse much in his early nukes thanks to ritual

Keeper is very easy, he gets bazillions of cash and with necronomicon you can really pwn others. Morphling really owns at all stages, he has a lot of damaging stuff, aoe spells, blink-like stuff etc.

Hard to play for me is ursa for example, maybe because I didn't play this hero much and I lack experience with it. Techies is god damn annoying to play (both as and against it).
I like heroes that have some crazy skills and require some knowledge/micro like Aiushtha, Pugna and Magina - this are definitely my favourite (bane and siren are nice too, but this are my top 3).

Ok, I uploaded some random reps of mine.
Not all of the opponents are good, but I think the items build is more important.
There are few solos ...
Almost forget - watch for player kamukag3e.

keeper is good for feeding but the build that my friend used to own with him is bdagger dagon skadi and bot somewhere along the way...

ursa is powerful as most int characters are food for him. you just have to surprise them and kill them quickly so they can't react. Lothars as a first item is highly advisable for him.

i play short mode just to see how fast i can push down mid its amusing as hell when you got mid down and other team is like wtf-ing

i honestly think weaver is the hardest, ursa is not team friendly at all and what tiffany said early is right, you ll never see some of those heroes in leagues cause well pushing down a lane >>> ganking.
