| All 158 Standard Hero Builds Item, Ability, Talent tooltips have been revised (approx. 3318 changes) Posted: 26 Dec 2017 07:49 AM PST Every year, I try to review all tooltips either to correct inaccuracies to better tighten some language and advice when opting for XYZ item or ability build order. After two months of work: I've managed to overhaul all tooltips for all 158 guides (about 2307 items, 632 abilities, 316 talents: approx. 176,170 words in tooltips reviewed, revised or rewritten). Lastly, I've pushed some final hero build changes to wrap up 2017: in total, 8228 changes were made this year compared to last year's (2016) 4371 changes Some key notes:

| What's the difference b/w Luna and Sven (and when to pick one over the other)? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 05:30 PM PST As far as i can tell both heroes play rather similarly, especially in the early game - both are decent-ish laners with some kill potential, both have an in built farm accelerator and both go Treads>MoM to farm stacks and get items. As for differences, I kinda think Luna is a bit better at split pushing whereas Sven can join fights and blow people up, but then he also has no mobility/escape and gets kited while also being quite a bit more dependent on his ult to fight when compared to Luna, who pressures towers earlier and better, which makes me think the latter hero is better overall. So as far as drafting goes, when do I pick Sven over Luna? In which scenario would Sven, given his worse ability to teamfight and provide early pressure, would be worth picking over Luna? Am I wrong in my assessment and there's something that Sven does and Luna can't which I missed out on? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||

| How is Venge the highest winrate hero in sub-2k? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 06:49 AM PST Genuinely confused and curious about this one. I see the hero has incredible versatility, being able to function both as a support and carry, but at the same time I often see stupid items builds on her like a hybrid of support and carry - I'm talking things like Tranquils>Force>SnY>Pike, and I'm not sure if people at this level really know how to use swap to its full potential. So, is having a +dmg aura really THAT good? Does it have something to do with her innate tankiness? Or am I missing something else that allows her to perform really well at low level pubs?

| How to choose bkb vs linkens , looking for advice Posted: 26 Dec 2017 05:34 PM PST 3k player here looking for input from some 5k+ players on what things go into choosing a linkens over a bkb , because for me bkb seems to usually be the better choice ... granted if you are vs a seeker with a hard immunity piercing disable such as a beastmaster initiation i can see the argument for linkens , but in my mind bkb almost always feels like the superior choice can someone help me understand what situations its not ?

| Posted: 26 Dec 2017 05:22 PM PST Hi, I've starting playing dota about two months ago and I am confused on what people think are strong laning heroes. How do you determine if a hero is strong in the laning phase or not? Thanks [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| New to dota and am curious on how to reliably control chaos knights ult illusions Posted: 26 Dec 2017 04:15 PM PST When I click on them it lets me control one completely but I lose control of the real me. That makes it pretty much impossible to control all of them and meat the same time. How do people do it? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| Posted: 26 Dec 2017 11:35 AM PST I've noticed a lot of higher mmr players hold their gold for quite a while. They get like 3+k before spending it even at 15-20 min point. As a mid 1k player, the second I get above 1k im looking to spend it that early in the game. So I guess my question is, when should I be looking to spend my gold vs save it and why? Thanks learndota2. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| How do you deal with a ranged safelane carry as an offlaner ? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 09:13 AM PST I've always had problems with a ranged carry as I mostly pick melee offlaners. When the enemy picks ranged carries such as drow or medusa, it's really hard for me to lane against them. Should I just bring more regen or is there another way ? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||

| Playing carry is just so darn hard! Posted: 26 Dec 2017 01:51 AM PST All of my carry games recently have ended in a quick failure (less than 40 mins), most of them losing because I've been thinking the same question: "Should I fight, or should I ignore them and just farm?" This game is a great example: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3642194435 After the laning phase, I always had no idea when to fight or push. When I just ignored a teamfight at mid when I was farming top, Sprit Breaker criticised me for not joining the fight when they lost that fight. Because of that, my mind became wobbly and I farmed and joined fights at the wrong times. As a result, the enemy snowballed into victory. So, how do I know when to farm and when to fight? Even though carry is not my best role (support and roamer is), I still want to learn how to play that role (mostly because Sven is my favorite hero). Is my support and roaming playstyle affecting my carry performance? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| Hero Spamming: What Heroes and How? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 12:28 PM PST So I think spamming 1-5 heroes will really benefit me as a low MMR player, but I constantly get bored and try a new hero out. I have over 1000 games and I have 1 hero over 60 games played. So how do people do it without getting bored? Does it depend on the heroes? I feel like picking a hard to learn hero will keep me interested, I tried earth Spirit with quickcast (never used it before) and the first game was a disaster. Any suggestions on other heroes? I don't feel I've chosen a role yet so any suggestions for any positions would be nice! [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| Can someone explain Doom Aghanims to me? Posted: 25 Dec 2017 10:07 PM PST When do you want to get it? What makes it good? I don't really get the 900 distance thing. Doesn't doom work no matter how far they are? Also, when / why would Doom want 100% cleave talent? He's not really a fighting hero? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| How do you take away information from pro replays? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 05:30 AM PST By pro replays I mean high mmr pubs. When I play, I don't know what I'm doing right or wrong 99% of the time. How do I see what pros are doing right or wrong? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| How to win HG against a Sniper and Tinker [Morph] Posted: 25 Dec 2017 10:30 PM PST First things first, I'm in the 3k bracket. I just lost a game as Morphling ytd to a Sniper Tinker defending HG, we(or rather I) managed to take down two lanes of races but was unable to take down the last lane. A few questionable fights later and suddenly they were at our ancient knowing it down and handing us a loss. Could any kind soul review the game and give me guidance on how to do btr? I had 8 death counts which is way more than usual and many of these were retarded deaths I could have avoided. The opposing Sniper was initially underfarmed but managed to play catch up.. Also, the two lanes of raxes we're only obtained through me ratting them while they were distracted by my team. What else could I have done to ensure a victory? [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| Help me dissect my own failures Posted: 26 Dec 2017 05:10 AM PST I've wanted to learn Anti-Mage a long time ago but didn't really got to using him effectively. So I tried using him on a Ranked game (bad idea) and BS countered me so I lost a few deaths to him. So let me know what I was doing wrong and what I was doing right. https://www.opendota.com/matches/3636660348 P.S Please no harsh criticism. That doesn't really point me to the right direction, you'd just be wasting you're time trashtalking me. Constructive criticism with harsh comments are welcome though. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
| Can you still kill rosh near entrance of pit in a way where rosh walks back to spawn every 3-4 hits? Posted: 26 Dec 2017 03:20 AM PST In the past it was super easy to solo rosh with an armlet because he would simply hit you 4 times, and even if the 4th was a bash, he'd spend a second walking back to his spawn, so you could 100% consistent armlet toggle even if bashed. I tried it a bunch in a test lobby and it seems like he'd sometimes walk back a tiny bit if I stood in the very right of the pit, but it was precise positioning and not very useful. Did they patch it? If so, can you still consistently solo rosh early on huskar? I feel like with no tricks you have a >30% chance of being bashed when low and dying, which is kinda game losing if rosh is low. [link] [comments]  | |||||||||
