lately my DotA friends and I have been doing 3 solo lanes the other 2 forest (one top, one bot)

yesterday we did: Chen(top forest), Enigma(bot forest), Lion(mid), naix (bot) Leshrak (top)

It worked out well. but I'd like to hear other peoples 3 solo lane teams.
mostly interested in who solos cause its limited who can forest from level 1.

thanks.

Chantress+Centaur in Forest

Troll @ Top
Lion @ Middle
Tidehunter @ Bottom

Don't know but it sounds like this would work quite well.

dont EVER listen to this fucking idiot (just in general)

Troll is one of the worst picks possible, and you want to play him on the LONG lane?

Ench is fine for jungling, but eni chen is really the strongest combo.

Naix is hard to solo a lane with, but he has the short lane and the possibility of enigma ganks, so if eni plays well, it should be possible. Lion solo is kind of wasted, if its -ap and you can decide freely, krobe / dirge / necro should solo mid. Top solo is the hardest and should be filled with a versatile hero with strong earlygame i guess. Leshrac is a bit fragile but possible, potm would be nice, kunkka could work if youre doing well and chen keeps tabs...

heres a nice example of how it works, doing maiden and earthshaker as the mid and bottom will be hard if you dont have the insane teamwork of ks.int, but it helps the junglers, if you can pull it off without a true carry

this guy knows what hes saying

LOL troll is not one of the worst picks at all. Troll rapes if used right.

Id go with this.

Tinker middle.
Zeus bottom.
Axe jungle your teams jungle
Enigma or Chen their jungle
Potm Top


Done this team many many times in scrims and its worked 95% of the time. Also used in Cal I and won 7 out of the 8 times.

How is Jah'Rakal one of the worst picks in Dota?
He easily rapes in Range form.

Tread/Mjolnir/Crit/Bfly and it is over.

Hell you could even use him in melee if you need to.

if you're going to post in my thread, please don't even try and argue that troll is a good pick.
I'm not talking about farming up all game and owning pubs.
troll without items = trash.
he has no skills that can help a team out when they're losing, hes only good if you're already ahead in the game.


thank you Pascal3000. I didnt really think of enchantress foresting.. but that would work
and i've already seen that replay actually lol

yeah, "it is over" BEFORE you farmed that. The fact that you didnt even mention BKB shows that youre a complete moron and have no clue of how to play troll.

You want to lane troll TOP? Top is by far the hardest lane when youre sentinel, as you will be far away from your own tower most of the time, and near the opponent tower. Also top NEEDS to be pressured, as its most likely the lane the opponent carry will be on. Playing a farming carry top is automatic fail, even if it was a good carry, but troll is just horrible. No earlygame lane control, fairly weak farming, no midgame map control, no ganking ability, no natural disable, no escape mechanism.

Just stfu, in every thread you post something, and EVERY SINGLE TIME its completly dumb and shows that you only play -apem pubs. So please, spare me with your idiocy

enchantress + chen

potm
tinker
necro

He is one of the easiest heroes to get ahead early game.

Lvl 7 w/ tread and melee max + 2 in ferver +1 in ult

Rapes Intel heroes pretty damn quick.
