No you horrible person, come play Dota with me D:
Or Starcraft, I rarely see you on anymore.

I've nearly become Asian. I just need to watch anime, learn how to use chop-sticks, and enjoy sushi. Assimilation successful.

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.
New player can certainly carry the game, easily, just gotta last hit. The trick with ranged heroes is that you can move closer to the creep and last hit if you can't judge the distance properly, so your basically last hitting like a melee. If you liked axe, try centaur or spirit breaker, they are naturally tanky and can gank really well.

Get with the times, DOTA 2 is now free so naturally you should move onto that. Unless you're just a sentimentalist and love the traditional Warcraft 3 dota. (all my friends do this too)

I have dota 2, but I don't like it. You can't improve perfection.

I had a game of it the other day and I had absolutely no problems with the legacy keys after having not touched it for at least a year. It was awesome!

A cool website for you to check out - DOTABUFF.

It summarises your stats after looking through your game history and posts up your records.

You can see lots of cool functions, for instance, who is a good counter to their picks.

If you wanted to pick a hero to counter lifestealer, for instance, just search the hero here and you can see that Drow, Riki, Templar, Ursa, and Omniknight are the best heroes to pick against him for the current week.

My records and stats

Let's post our finest up!

Lion is a good support, but I really like Dark Seer.

I find that, so long as the person playing him has an IQ of >80, he is impossible to fuck up. Four castables, amazing jungler, great ricer if he needs to be.\

Shell the carry.
Surge the carry. (half your shit is done with two clicks)
Put down your ulti wall. (can be done to varying degrees of effectiveness)
Vacuum tactfully. (again, this can make or break a fight)

But still, if you at least cast your stuff, 80% of the time you will help. A lot. He's a great support and really gets unrecognized as an introductory Dota 2 hero.

@Hutchoo: that was my first game with Medusa in Dota 2 xD I had a lucky game.

(yes, I do enjoy playing Medusa if you're wondering about my game history)

Reviving Dota thread with this  8) that coordination


Abaddon was just released, who will be next? I haven't played Dota 1, so I wouldn't know - how many more heroes are yet to be released? 10? 20?

http://dotabuff.com/players/62613007 - visage and meepo look at the stats

http://dotabuff.com/players/62613007/records - some huge visage and meepo stats that i'm pretty happy with

i have played every visage game on this guys account, and he's only recently (last day or so) started playing again. it's a mixed account, but most of the games are mine. i've never had so much fun playing dota than in the last year.
