I love this idea - you guys should organize it a bit more and set up some solid casters

Best advice I can give if you're going to play pub matches: open the web browser in the Steam overlay, go to dota2alttab.com and click on your hero.

Good item/skill builds and tactics all in about 3 paragraphs

And please learn how to use magic sticks/wands and wards :)

Sound good? This would also be a good place to pool up some "extra invites" that are clogging up the boards.

I can start - I have a Frostivus mask for Bounty Hunter; Mask of Dark Ferocity

Heroes will ALYWAYS be free in Dota 2 - you just pay for cosmetic items and keys for chests/crates, ala TF2

@LordXavierBritish: Couldn't have put it better myself :D

@TastyCakesMcG33: The best guides are videos of people using heroes. Purge, who is also a caster, is one of the best imho. Good insightful tips and his knowledge of the game is deep

If anyone wants to dive in, I do have some extra invites. PM me and I'll try and set you up!

@TastyCakesMcG33: That's hard to say.

I had to put in some time watching matches and playing against bots. I didn't really grasp solid item use and maneuvers until hour 20 or so.

That said, after the fact, it was time well spent. Winning and pulling of successful ganks/moves has never been so satisfactory in any other competitive game.

Also, with Dota 2's ELO matchmaking, you'll spend some time with same skill level players, learning and teaching each other. Since it went more public this summer, everyone is a lot more cooperative and is willing to teach new players.

Additionally, you can open Steam's web browser to dota2altab.com to show you recommend skill and item builds for heroes!

My time with LoL was limited, but it pales in comparison to what Dota 2 has to offer in terms of competition, in my opinion.
