Im trying to learn to play at least one hero from each class. I'm on melee at the moment. I've mostly been playing zealot but occasionally trying out one of the others. In pub games, I can't really get a good feel for the melee heroes since all I'm doing is noobstomping with different spells. At higher levels. what is the difference between each melee hero and what does each one excel at?

It'll be like this until more people play this game and learn all the things.

I've been called cheater last game because at lvl 15 i destroyed a turret in about 10 seconds.
I was using Sylon, which is one of the best building destroyer in the game. His ultimate skill does a low initial damage, but lasts long in a very large radius dealing good damage on buildings.
His other skill v also if you aim at the corner of the building does multiple damage on the buildings
doing massive damage.

The bad thing about Sylon is his hero killing abilities are just a little above average. Has one of the lowest health. So he is basically a nuker (most effective on buildings).

LurrCellant - can hook dragin enemy and kill fast in a series of combinations. (good against any magic heros)
Genesic Hunter - Has the most HP in the game, can stun like a second with c skill, can stun again with ultimate skill. Can summon golems really fast at the end stage of the game when you put some stats up.
Blade hunter - Has a big slow aoe, massive damage ultimate. You cannot run against this hero. Good overall balance.
Duran - Has high HP, amazing damage, but you need a lot of mana to perform his combo. Get potion always.
Zeros - The best early lvl hero, can kill heroes in seconds even from lvl 2 with just a single potion.
Both his ultimates are good. the 2 mineral ultimate does around 3500 damage on full atk up stat. The other ultimate does fairly good damage and lets you blink to the targeted point. Has a slow move.

One big tip is try to destroy buildings with drinking a mana and spell spamming. When you destroy 1 barrack, it gives all your teammates 500 gas so it helps alot in the beginning stage of the game.

Best building destroyers : Sylon, Dark Fact

Another tip: There are many people who think just investing a lot of stat points in mana makes you strong spamming spells.

This is not true. You can spam spells for a short time during combat by just drinking a cheap 350 mana potion.

In the beginning you would want some mana so you can perform all the skills you have (the highest mana required i think was 450). So once you have that requirement met (average, most people in korea put 5 points in mana.) it's best to up your skill damage. While you put some points in ATK Up stat, if you think you are slow put some speed points.

You can buy mana regen pack or max mana pack at the shop so no need to over put your mana stat. You only have 50 limited stat points (lvl 25 x 2 each lvl). So you would want the most effective build.

I think I've been having the most success with Genesic and Zeros. For zeros, is his slow movement a big problem at any stages of the game? I'm thinking if it goes to lategame, mana won't be an issue anymore, so since zeros can output more dmg, he might be a bit stronger.

PS. Genesic's ult does 300 (+100) dmg, what does that mean?

Oh i meant one of his skill has a slowdown property ('c' skill i believe).
HIs damage output isn't the best, just in the beginning it's stronger but as it
goes to the later stage, other melee heroes can be better. So you gotta lvl up
faster take and use the early advantage.

I'm not sure, i think 300 is the initial damage and 100 is the explosion damage after the initial attack motion. But the damage isn't the best part of that skill. It stop the opponent for a short time, making you more time to attack with other skills.

If you just want damage, Lurrcellant does the most.

hmm okay thanks. I think I'll stick with genesic. Maybe with organized teams, having a stun would be extremely beneficial for target firing.

this game would be heaps cooler if you could deny. I was trying to work out what i didn't like about this game, so i went and played a game of HON to get some perspective. I think its denying. The early game is just so stagnant. You dont ahve enough damage to kill an opponent, and all last hits are guaranteed, its just a zz fest of killing boxes and occasionally aoeing the creep wave. Why not introduce denying and m,aybe even proper last hitting, making lane control actually important instead of the joke it is now. all the games i've played so far have been pretty silly, with me getting lvl 25 while everyone else is like lvl 10 and running around 2 shotting people, still not sure how this game would play out with 6 competant people, but it still feels a little flat.

Oh, there is denying. You deny by pushing your creeps to the enemy towers. They don't get anything for tower kills. Depending what hero you are, you can kill opponents as early as lvl 2 or 3. A half health hero can be taken down by any lvl 1 hero using stim and proper stutterstepping.

yes but if they see you pushing the lane they just push it back, theres no timing involved, just "strategy". You'd need to be pretty damn lucky to get a lvl 2 kill on a non-retard. Maybe i'll be lucky enough to get you in another game so you can school me and i can figure out why this should be fun

I really wish i could upload the replay files from korea, but they aren't compatible.
There is no luck involved in killing heroes at lvl 2. You just need a mana potion.
Depending on what hero you play, you can kill the opponent pretty quickly.

What does mana potion do? at 350 gas you can buy and use with the hotkey 'w'
It regenrates 400 mana per secon for around 5 seconds. So once you have enough
mana to perform all the skills you have, you find your opponent. Wait till he is not near his base,
Run drink potion spam skills dead. (well it's not that easy, but characters with slow/stun/trap can do
it with more ease)

The game is all about taking over watch tower positions. So you don't get ambushed and get
killed. Early stage, your hp is really low so those mana potions are deadly.

It does cost money so you have to be sure that you can kill him when you use it.
Otherwise you waste a lot of money in the early stage and that's critical.

well when i read that it kind of turns me off. The way you kill people is just "spam all skills". Doesn't seem like theres much finesse. Theres no significant cooldowns i've run into apart from dying, but what skill is there in a game where you just spam shit at people. In a game like hon/dota timing your skills to coincide with your allies abilities is key to getting off a successful gank

I did say it's not that simple. I think the best way is to play with competant players or me uploading a replay that is good. I'll see if i can get some replays. All i can say for now is give it some time
so people understand the game more.

Even tho you can spam skills, the health point in this game is pretty large. It can get upto 13000 for
some characters. So yeah you have to be good at aiming the skills, and using it right.
There are techniques where you can bend the skill effect, canceling charge technique, knowing
the properties of the skill hit boxes, etc...

It's easy to start off, and when ppl stomp pub easily, they tend to think this is it. And the next stage they play with the people in clans and get raped pretty badly. (this is korea btw) From that point, they learn all sorts of new techniques and find out that there are a lot of things you have to know in this game and practice to become good. Right now, the game is at early stage (5 days since release in NA) and i've been called cheater in one of the games because the way i play the game is so different. They just don't understand. (and i'm around average level in clan battles in korea)
It was exactly like this in the early stages of KR server. So in time they'll eventually become like the KR lvl is right now.

One small problem with this game is that when you learn a stat/skill with your mineral, the hero stops whatever he was doing (ie, stops moving or attacking, etc). Other than that, the game is so much fun :D. Thank you so much for uploading this to N.A server.
