Anyways, I came from dota and I'm getting coached by eternalenvy from dwi!

few thoughts on the game
1. cm is underappreciated
2. people in general have no clue what pushing is, despite it's awesome power

I've played antimage, cm, void (chrono) and zephr...

any heroes you guys suggest I play just to stomp some pubs and get to know the heroes before i start moving up? It seemed like playing cm is pubs is useless cuz you die before you get to see what's going on... and the game with antimage was so stomp there was a wd who kept maledicting me but I didn't even know what his hero looked like after the end of the game because their team died so fast...

Anyways, if anyone here wants to put down their username, hopefully coach a (relatively) clueless player right now get better, plz post here!

And yes, I did play dota at a high level so I know all the items heroes, just don't know their new names, and the general flow of the game.

And lastly, I like how last-hitting is actually not a complete pain in the ass now :P

A hero I like to recommend for new players is witch slayer (lion)
Great overall hero not that hard to play and useful in every game
IMO one of the best heroes since he can be played in different ways

it's like the best hero ever cuz

1. HIS ATTACK ANIMATION RULES UNLIKE IN DOTA
2. HIS CASTING ANIMATION RULES UNLIKE IN DOTA

imo witch slayer is best
take witch solo middle, getting steamboots and port key asap (10-15 mins is ideal)
blink around map carrying your team
i beat wehsing's hag mid way back in a random matchmaking game np

night hound mid is good too, anything that you can carry with while feeding off enemy heroes, since turtle farming a 1v5 will usually never work
