You're in for a long ride. This game's learning curve looks something like a spiral.

Thanks a lot

Yeah I am but the thing is I can't really learn anything since all I do is stay in the top lane and just kill creeps and run away to heal whenever I die LOL

Just started playing a few days ago, quite interesting. Totally different to any type of strategy game I've played before (Starcraft, Warhammer, etc)
So far, I've played Omniknight, Lich, Axe, Dazzle and Jakiro - the first two are probably my favourites for now.

Last hitting is so hard #firstworldproblems

Professional gaming seems a bit silly to me.

In what sense?
You should see the Starcraft scene in Korea - craaazy
Gaming is becoming more and more popular of a hobby these days - gamers are no longer looked on as the nerdy type of people who can't say more than three words to another person. Naturally, eSports will flourish more as time goes by.

I did watch one Dota game, NaVi vs IG from the International 2012, the one that ended in like 30 minutes. Didn't get a thing the casters said.

If you're having problem with last hitting, try using drow or viper, if not anti mage with quelling blade.

last hitting with kunkka is the most easiest i rkn and u also harass your opponents =)

I find ranged Heroes harder to last hit than melee Heroes. Just not at that level where I can time the attack time and distance to target yet. Had fun with Axe today, got a few Hero kills even! I need to learn which items go with which hero, and how to use them. Some guy raged at me for not having Blink Dagger

Anti-mage looks fun to last hit with, he seems to have a good attack speed from what I've seen.
He's a Carry though, isn't he? I don't think a new player like me should take that much responsibility.
