Do you enjoy helping your team and making sure everyone have their comfortable space to perform well? The sooner you understand your personal preference, the sooner you can begin specializing and becoming good at what you like.
It is worth noting that anything user Lunarios says should be taken with a grain of salt as he is known to troll brackets with his "unconventional" plays where he picks heroes he knows underperform in certain roles with complete disregard for the other people in his solo Q endeavours, or simply takes the opportunity to "learn" unconventional aspects of the hero at everyone else's expense.
Consider yourself warned. Also - I forgot to add - do not be afraid if other people threaten you, grief you, say they will report you - it is your right as a player, especially as a new player, to enjoy the game the way you believe - and if someone else is giving you a hard time for you either being yourself or trying to learn something new - you have the ability to ignore them and cease further communication with them.
Believe me - I have learned this on my skin many times - don't enter unproductive arguments with people, it will waste your time and may harm you in the process.
Friendly reminder "enjoying the game the way you believe" can not only be anti-social high TMM players generally want to win, not watch someone throw their games through feigned stupidity , but also against the rules as any KD scout can attest to. So, I'm sure you can see how insidious this person is.
Given that his lack of imagination just made him advise a new player to potentially break the rules and get himself banned. It is absolutely not in your interest to earn yourself a suspension by "believing" that, for example, your way to express your gameplay happens to be dying as often as possible.
Anyone who believes functioning within the team is to ignore the rest of the team and do your own thing if met with criticism is not fit to give others advice, and that's Lunarios. A deluded, narcissistic griefer.
Hes providing constructive feedback while you spam the chat with your nonsense, i remember you, you act all mighty thinking you are right and everyone else is wrong, you are the very definition of a narcissist. Play calm, don't get mad if other players are not doing what you expect them to do.
Be versatile on picking phase - play the role that your team needs instead of insisting to play a role at the start of the game. If people are trolling, don't feed them but adjust your plays.
Most important: Don't blame other players. If you reflect your mistakes, you will get better. I understand your point. It brought my attention the fact that here are not 5v5 Normal games not ranked on the big map the one which has 3 lanes , like DOTA and LoL.
I assume there is reason about why that mode is not available. FoC ranked can be compared to regular Dota normal mode 5vs What is that? I looks and tastes like something. Oh nvm its salt. Plain old salt. You should cut back man. My KDR is realllllllllllllly bad as in 0. Since when is madman, tempest and valkyrie easy heroes? Ophelia should be a hard to play character because you need to jungle with her and need to get creeps also.
Great guide though…. I think Scout can be versatile. It depends on play style I guess. The information should be a lot clearer and I think all experienced players would agree on the choices given. BTW scout is a really good counter against pest when pest hasnt got his items. Thanks for posting and teamwork being important is very very true. Not only can pestilence just stun scout whenever he pops out of invis, but at just lvl 6 he can negate scouts invisibility for much of the game.
Well without going into too much detail, most of those you mentioned require lots of good farm for gold for items to do well new players generally do not farm very well. Remember this list is not for advanced or very experienced players…. Idk y i like plague rider. I suck at Hon cause I didnt know wth to do and kept playing rated games when I started, and my psr dropped a lot.
I just play for fun now. PR is a bit easy to use, and you dont have to be a genius to use its ulti either. Its contagion helps well too, in a lot of scenarios. About Scout… As a noob, the idea of invisibility appealed to me, and a noob always just hangs back, never uses his eye cause some dont even know what silence is in the first place , and only flurries if his team manages to rout the rest or if he sees someone dying in a safe place for him.
When I used scout as a newb, my kdr was 0. Thats how badly noobs can screw up your team if they dont know scout…. I think Scout is easy to play and is the worst hero ever. In a clan war a guy in my team picked scout and we lost it. In Clan Wars people stay together all the time, the bloodlust was in mid: Devourer was in the last tower mid and the fight begun, behemoth used his stun, blood hunter used his DPS skill, andromeda used his stun, Devourer was dead in less than of game.
Only in pub Scout is good because no one would put a revelation ward and Scout would kill easily because a stranger team have different opinions, and many people could stay alone for a long time feeding. Legionnaire is a little bit easy, in the beginning in a pub we can go lure enemy creeps and destroy tier 1 tower in less than 5 min of game. Besides he can kill anyone in late. Once you feel you are experienced, i think the best choice for you would be a hard carry ,such as maliken, bh , nh , mb and many more ,or a semi carry ,like nomad , valkyrie or something.
BUT, if you are still a noob, plz try picking easy-to-play heroes such as blacksmith, plague rider, armadon or accursed. I agree with most of the information above. Valkyrie can be hard to play when it comes to hitting her spear and when to use her leap. Chronos can be a very easy-to-play hero with his two passives that can stun lock and evade almost ever time.
Madman would be in the middle or so. He is target early game but can get away easily. Late game he owns pretty much everything. Amun-ra is the superhardest hero in the game with no targeted spells but I still got a 3 kill streak.
Amun-rape is almost al hard to play as Night Hound. I went a whole match without dying and I only left about half way! Your email address will not be published.

Ideal Hero Choices For the Beginner Player: These heroes will be easy to play in that you will be able to help your team easily and generally wont be susceptible to being killed a lot.
Remember don't buy the recipe yet as it's not cost effective. Sometimes you have a strength or agility hero that really needs more mana. There's nothing wrong with getting parts for a Fortified Bracelet and parts for a Talisman of Exile.
Another good starting item for mana intensive heroes is the Ring of the Teacher. Some melee heroes like to get this and later create an Abyssal Skull. At some point you will want one of the 3 kinds of boots Marchers , Enhanced Marchers , and Post Haste. The 3 boot recipes can be found at the bottom of the Initiation shop.
The Enhanced Marchers are favored by many players because they let you run a little quicker and run through creeps and heroes. This gives you an edge when chasing or evading. However, as a new player you're probably going to forget to use the item in combat so I wouldn't recommend them.
The Steam Boots give you some stats and boost your attack speed a bit. Post Haste boots make you run the fastest constantly and allow you to teleport to your creeps anywhere on the map. Note that this uses the Homecoming Stone cooldown. There's nothing wrong with just sticking with plain Marchers for a large part of the game and spending your money on other things. Some items have very expensive components.
For example, the Behemoth's Heart and Wingbow , both good items have components that cost more than gold! As a new player you may be working away and have saved up gold and then get killed and lose half that money.
This is really frustrating. So, it's better to focus on items with cheaper components unless you're making lots of money and feel confident you won't be killed any time soon. A great piecemeal item is the Sacrificial Heart. This makes you harder to kill and reduces how much gold you lose when you die and how long you're dead. Each path to the enemy's base is called a lane. At the start of the game your team will spread out between the lanes, named top, middle, bottom.
One hero will have the lane all to himself, known as being solo. As you learned above that means the solo player will gain more experience and level quicker than the other players. As a new player you should not solo. Often a player that wants solo will call solo at the beginning of the game. Once in your lane you want to stay within experience range of any enemy creeps that die. Try to last-hit creeps for gold and deny your own creeps. Depending on the hero matchup you may or may not have the advantage on the enemy hero.
You will notice that if you try to attack an enemy hero, their creeps will attack you. In the beginning of the game enemy creeps can do significant damage to you.
Pay attention and don't get mauled by the enemies creeps. In general, a ranged hero will be able harass a melee hero and keep them from getting last-hits. Lane dynamics and positioning is an important skill to learn. As you will play you will learn to manipulate the creeps to your advantage, gain more gold, and prevent the enemy from getting experience and gold!
More detailed information can be found in the [ Basic Laning Guide]. Sometimes a lane has trouble killing the heroes in its lane. Other times there are enemy heroes you want to kill to make them lose money and slow down their progress. Or else an enemy hero is just in an exposed position and vulnerable. In these cases your team may try to sneak up and kill them, also known as a gank.
Often your team will indicate that they're trying to kill someone by pinging the enemy position. A successful gank requires surprise and the right set of skills. If you are sneaking up on the hero, use the trees to hide yourself. Don't let the enemy creeps see you on the way. Position yourself and move with your team so that you all move into the enemy's vision at the same time. If your team has multiple stuns or disables you should spread them out. Most stuns last 2 to 3 seconds and other disables 4 to 5 seconds.
So if someone else has already used a disable, use the time to position yourself and hit the disabled hero. As soon as they are free use a disable you might have. If you are ganking a hero with some kind of escape, such as the Magebane it is important to time your disables so that the hero does not have a chance to use their ability.
Another strategy is to anticipate the enemy's escape path and have some of your heroes waiting to catch them when they try to escape. As you play you will learn how to perform better ganks and coordinate with your team as well as what heroes are good at ganking and what heroes are hard to gank. The objective of the game is to destroy the towers, barracks, and eventually the tree at the enemy base.
So sometimes your team will decide that it's time to push a lane. Your team will gather together and start moving down a lane with the objective of destroying buildings in the path. Often you will decide to push after killing an enemy hero. While that hero is dead their team will be vulnerable and have more difficulty defending. You should have the Scores visible so that you can see the death timer for that hero.
In early pushes you may just destroy one tower and then someone on your team will say "back" or just "b" to indicate that your team should retreat.
If you stick behind you will likely be killed by the enemy heroes that have been positioning to defend. Pushing at the right time is an important strategy. Certain teams will have a strong opportunity early in the game but lose it toward the end due to strong carries on the enemy team.
These teams need to push early and destroy barracks before the other team begins to gain the upper-hand with their stronger end-game heroes. With barracks destroyed the other team will constantly need to tend to their base, which limits their ability engage their entire team in pushes or team fights. Team fights are exciting and chaotic. A team fight occurs when both teams clash, usually as a result of a push or when one team is chasing a hero and the other team comes to help him.
In a team fight many heroes will use their ultimate abilities and use all of their skills. The most important thing you can focus on in a team fight is to focus-fire.
This means attacking the same hero that your teammates are attacking in order to kill them faster. Your role in a team fight depends on your hero and its abilities. Usually your ultimate is important to use, but you must judge when to use it. Should you use it right away or wait for people to be hurt first?
In general abilities that damage and confuse multiple enemies will be used right away. Abilities that pick off single heroes will be used to execute heroes that are nearly dead after the initial onslaught. Watch what your teammates are doing. Sometimes your team will realize that they have lost the advantage and start to retreat. At this point you need to do your best to escape. Other times your team will clearly have won and you should do your best to catch stragglers and then push.
Technically you can attack the forward most enemy building at any time Buildings further behind it are invulnerable. Attacking a building when your creep wave is farther up the lane engaged with the enemy creeps is called backdooring.
Though technically allowed by the game many players consider this foul play. However, the game does not prevent it. Whether or not backdooring is good acceptable is [ debated]. In general you should not backdoor unless it has been made clear that backdooring is ok in the game you're playing.
