Learning How to Play Every Hero in DOTA2 is Worth Your Time
Let’s face it, every game seems to consist of the same exact heroes or the same heroes are expected to play a specific role. Otherwise, the entire team expresses frustration the entire match. What has come of us the gaming community that we force ourselves to plan the same strategies in an effort to win…

what you need to know before playing 13v13 Dota2
The object of this thread is to discuss 10 vs 10 and my ideas on how to improve the gameplay aspect of that mode. I.01 Overview 10 vs 10 is by far a really hard mode to play and that’s because it is so disorganized at least since I last played dota. So with this…

Pro Choices vs common Choices
What would it look like if dota had 5000 heroes for pro players and less than 300 characters for regular players.
Great Teacher, Doctor Oz, Oracle and the Dual Prophets
What if Valve made Mirana and Abaddon Walk?
It be cool if every hero could be on a mount as a hat and have every mount hero be walking as a hat.
Outposts
So, I was watching dream league today and I noticed that the pro players didn’t use the outposts. So I started thinking on how we can get Outpost usage bigger. I noticed that Outpost usage wasn’t that big. One idea was that before you can take the tier three or tier four towers you need…
Lua and Galaxy Editors
We are now in the age of LUa and Galaxy. Meaning that, our community designs are not limited to the world editor anymore. Before, we couldn’t add six spells because we were limited by the world editor. We couldn’t change or add additional attributes because we were limited by the world editor. We could not…

Wraith King to revive people
What if Wraith King revived people on your team instead of being a playable character in the match? This could do so much for the game. It would make the game more exciting to watch. It would just make the game more annoying to play. But if it is used by professionals they would be…
Dota’s UI
Hello Dota players, Today I want to talk about the UI everything is perfect with the UI. The only two problems that I see is that it is frustrating to toggle between each lane. The minimap makes it easy but its still difficult. The other problem is that it’s hard to command multiple characters. Characters…

Why zeus tuskar and mario
Mario is an iconic hero. Ever since super smash brothers he has been iconic. Popularized in my generation by super mario brothers the next generation took hold of this icon when ssb came out. Everything is iconic in Mario from the three hops to the throwing of enemies. Dota implemented two heroes that resemble Mario.…
Snowborne
Ok so this idea might be overextending a bit but I want to get it out there. Basically the idea is to lower the hero count by combing the heroes into thirty nine to fifty heroes with three to four phases . Each phase is pickable with everything being different but the heroes face and…
Quieten and Wrooks experience with lazy readers
Too many heroes have names that are too close together. Take VS. Do I mean vengeful spirit or void spirit. Most people in the game use these shortcuts when communicating. But when there are two or more ES (Earth shaker, Earth Spirit, Ember spirit) in the game or VS. Words can become cumbersome when communicating.…

Vambrace review’
Vambrace is a bad item. For several reasons. It is given to late. It is just an item you get until you replace the null, bracers and wraith band. Theses items are meant to help you survive in the laning phase but this item is gotten well past the games middle development, and the laning…

Snapfire review
I thought snapfire’s cookies were bad until I played the game. I got one lucky with my cookie usage off and I learned what this ability does.. One time I used It the cookie helped kunkka dodge a maledict casting and I got hit. I had no idea that was possible with the spell. I…
Outpost review
Ok so I am really not sure what the purpose of Side shops are besides quick item pickup. But I know what the purpose of outposts are. See there are two outposts when there should be three. The middle lane doesn’t have an outpost. This is because the game is dedicated towards having one person…
Lookout
The game should add Lookout. Lookout is a hero that helps out ranged heroes and makes their matches easier. I got the idea for lookout from researching Nascar Drivers. I don’t watch Nascar but I use to like driving. When I liked driving, I would watch movies like fast and the furious. I wondered how…
Campaigns for Dota 2
Dota needs to add a campaign. I don’t know how they’ll do it with all of their characters. But they have too many characters. A campaign will normalize the game and prepare them for online gameplay. Look at Starcraft 1 and 2. Both of those campaigns prepare you for normal gameplay. In the Starcraft campaign…
Elephant treatment in dota
I think it is wrong to have an elephant as a hat and especially as a techie’s hat—For people who don’t know what a hat is. It is a cosmetic item to dress up your character to look different than the original design—We should care for animals and that hero teaches us that animals like…
Great Teacher suggestion
Everyone has experience good and bad teachers but great teacher is a boon to his team and the opposite team. I remember one good science teacher in middle school who made science so fun I took physics, programming and earth and space science in high school. Great Teacher…That is an idea I have been trying…

Clay Spirit
There are some heroes I can see myself as and if I was part of the dota world I would see myself as these heroes? Those heroes are wisp, elder titan, shadow demon, warlock, death prophet, and Grimstroke. I compare myself to these heroes because they all manipulate illusions or summonables and have their creations…
Menu Options on the Title Screen
Updated Menu Options. I don’t know what to call this but yea the game is hard to find a match in. Matchmaking is easy to find a match but lobbies is difficult. In my opinion instead of “Play Dota” being a button there should be three buttons on the bottom. “Lobby” “Matchmaking” and “Practice” This…

Three of a Kind
The development team is doing what they can about updating the matchmaking system. There are multiple ways to update the matchmaking system.

Dota 2 Entry 1
There are tons of books in the starcraft universe as well as the starwars universe. There are even books in the warcraft universe. But there are no books about the dota universe. I wonder why that is. Dota 2 is a wonderful game. It is just annoying because noone knows how to play. There are…
