Mufasa 325 Posted June 11, 2013 What are some good hero picks for a beginner? I've only played a couple games and Riki is my favorite from what I've tried so far. mostly everyone is easy to play just avoid harder picks like invoker, chen, meepo, anti-mage, furion, wisp until you learn the game more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Name 2616 Posted June 11, 2013 Play invoker.Oh lord jesus christ why One good rule to go by in Dota is to play a hero you're comfortable with. If you get wrekt by some shit and it seems OP as fuck, play it. Someone will destroy you sooner or later and show you that hero's weaknesses. Also, try out All Random. Good way to force yourself to learn new shit. or learn dazzle 20 games in a row 2 KGameLover1 and TurtleFrenzy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Count 500 Posted June 11, 2013 In all seriousness, i haven't played too mutch dota but some easy and fun picks i've found are kunkka (low level you always wreck your lane) or razer (make epic baits with that leesh). Then again I'm kinda noobish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KGameLover1 1306 Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) http://www.purgegamers.com/welcome-to-dota-you-suck this guide will help you a lot. Easy heroes: Centaur, Venomancer, Chaos Knight, Lion, Sand King, Skeleton King, Vengeful Spirit, Ogre Magi, Crystal Maiden, Tidehunter, Slardar, Witch Doctor, Lich, Warlock, Axe. Easy heroes but require a bit more skill than above: Windrunner, Slark <----- great heroes. If you're feeling up to it start with these. All of the above, save for a few, are usually support/etc and don't usually go on Rampages. Side note: Slark is perceived as bad by a lot of people because they use bad builds. However, when built correctly, and with a 1-3 level advantage, (try to solo mid) I've found you can easily get a lot of kills and pretty much never die. (See here: http://dotabuff.com/matches/215667359) Also, if you wanna play, just add me on Steam. I'll be down anytime.http://steamcommunity.com/id/kgamelover1 Edited June 11, 2013 by KGame 1 aerokopf reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arrkham 291 Posted June 11, 2013 Really just go random in an easy bot game. Watch youtube vids on tips and tricks. Try out tons of heros. Move on the coop bot, then to match. I played single draft for two months straight and now i have played probably half or a little more than half of the heros. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Name 2616 Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) I have no idea what you people are saying. On a more serious note, I'll play some bot games with you and run you through crash course dota (Or, if you're comfortable enough, against players). It's a shit ton to learn at first.
