Hey,

Im from the xbox section but I have recently been playing dota with friends at internet cafes and Im starting to get into it. Just wanted to ask, who is a good hero to use when you are starting off, that is easy to use but also good. Im getting into enigma as I like long range heroes but I want to get used to others. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I learned with lich, fair easy, but i suppose all heroes are easy to use, just hard to master!

Was just about to say, Heroes of Newerth is were a lot of the focus is and i believe it is a lot better then dota ( Basically same heroes and same items and objectives, just better graphics and its a game built around dota so there is a lot more functions!)

With the rules on CG dota, can you pick any allowed hero regardless of what team you are or do you have to pick a hero that is on the side you are playing on?

Regardless *Squishy*. You are allowed pick / ban any hero from either side.

Try Rooftrellen.
He can cast on additional armour + regen.
Can go invisible pretty much anywhere (next to a tree) and his ultimate can disable units for 3+ seconds.

He's a great hero for a newbie.
Just get 2-3 bracers, treads and radiance.
