dun play dota, or you will be like all the idiots here man (:
November 23rd, 2009 at 3:24 am
i think your a fukin retard. Luna, Sniper, Drow, Lina, Zues???? Those are FAR from noob heroes. They require experienced play to not get ganked early and become useless. Zues and Luna also recquire good mana management, making them horrible picks for noobs.
Razor is good at least, because he can get away with his high ms, and he in not comlicated. So is skele, because they wont feed as much and can be useful with the stun. Cent is ok, but they wont be useful
November 23rd, 2009 at 3:26 am
and ian, every hero is weak agaisnt another hero…
and travex can shit on crystal miaden… if she gets silenced, drow can kill her in 5 shots at any point in the game past level 6…
and pudge/mirana are the worst picks ever for noobs…
November 23rd, 2009 at 2:52 pm

December 22nd, 2009 at 7:01 pm
nice!:D, when i started playing DotA i started using “KARDEL SHARPEYE”, when i mastered kardel, i switched to “Priestess of the Moon”(MIRANA)^_^
December 24th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Hey Dudes try this K: First pick any hero, then find the place where Roshan is standing, on his Upper left will be a person who is called Leragas the Vile fill your inventory using the weapon DEMON EDGE which Leragas sells after that buy 6 SACRED RELICS from Leragas also and you will have 6 Divine Rapiers which gives +250 Damage, after evrything click at your Hero and his + damage will be 1500 cool eh then fight Roshan and you can defeat him without using cheats what so ever TNX
December 24th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
Oh, ANd ANother Thing MAke Sure Your Hero is From Scourge if your Hero is from sentinel you’ll have a hard time reaching him because of the spirit towers TNX again
December 25th, 2009 at 1:44 pm
when i accidentally opened the dota app in our desktop, I was fascinated and tried to play it.. I first also accidentally clicked on the icon of luna moonfang…
I mastered her easily, but I also agree with what the others say, SHE’S NOT ONE OF THE CHOICES FOR NEWBIES…
one should know the timing for her skills, when to level it up and when to upgrade it…
luna is also one of the best heroes you could use…that is if you would have the correct items, knowledge, and common sense
December 27th, 2009 at 4:43 am
ian u u do not no anything.. anyway pudge is not good for noobs espiacially his rot
