                  Haha, so I'm considered skilled

                  < blank >

                    Also I don't see any Tinker and Timber on your lists, guys

                      Puck you

                        I'm assuming we are talking about skill cap, not skill floor.

                        To me, its pretty simple. Mostly the heroes that have shit winrate in low mmr, but drastically improves with higher brackets (pretty much, some of the below doesnt have a high skill floor and thus enjoy ok winrates in shit mmr).

                        Thus;

                        Earth spirit
                        Ember
                        Tinker (wr doesnt drastically improve, the hero is just shit atm.)
                        Puck
                        Rubick
                        Meepo
                        Chen
                        Magnus
                        Invoker
                        TA

                        Any of these heroes can basically win a game on their own within a certain time frame (well maybe not rubick) if played by the right person.

                        Most micro heroes such as LD or visage isnt hard if you have played plenty of SC2/WC3, thus they arent included. Chen and meepo involves significantly more apm.

                        Some other heroes also sport significant improvement in winrate when played in higher brackets, such as Beast master, Wisp, BH, Bat. However i would argue that is simply due to teammates being less retarded and actually utilizing the benefits of those heroes.

                          Leave the list aside and the joke aswell:

                          I think Drow requires a lot of skill to be played optimally...

                          375 range on ulty and 625 attack range leaves you with 250 range to work with.
                          Basically anyone who doesn't run away from you will kill you...

                                      All take a lot of skill imo

                                        Invoker, Meepo, Tinker, Earth Spirit, Puck, Chen, Storm Spirit, Magnus, Brewmaster, Timbersaw

                                          Oldman

                                            I think the hardest to play at least decent is Chen.

                                            TripleSteal-

                                              it varies across different skill brackets. atm i dunno how one shall actually execute sniper, axe or storm in high mmr matches, and its way more difficult than earthspirit/pudge/invoker or whatever else most ppl mention.

                                              TripleSteal-

                                                it would be more correct to ask "what are the heroes that require most mechanical skill", imo

                                                lm ao

                                                  ^this

                                                  lm ao

                                                    Also you might want to differentiate thos heroes that require great mechanical skill from heroes that require great situational awareness (best examples are Puck and Rubick)

                                                    plz do

                                                      why do so many ppl post invoker? he is op in every stage of the game. his spells are op and he got buffed so much in comparison to many other mids, who got nerfed. dont see that its that much skill needed. i dont play him though, cuz im not a mid player, so i honestly dont know. i just know that his stats and early laning phase is just op. therefore i think he needs less skill than before.. meta heroes are usually less skill dependent.

                                                        ^ the question was which hero requires more skill not which hero is more overpowered...and if a hero with 10spells doesnt fit in a category where the rest have max 4 spell, theres defently smth wrong with ur logic. To not even count that u need positioning and to press 4 buttons for a single spell, if anything else the APM voker requires is practically way higher than most of the heroes, which more often than not is translated as skill.

                                                          ^Chen can have 8 spells and 4 of them require a shit lord of more positioning and macroing than Invoker ever will.
                                                          Perhaps your logic is flawed.

                                                          Also to play a decent Invoker is easy to play a decent chen is pretty hard.

                                                          To play a perfect Invoker on the other hand is very very hard.

                                                          Then again to play a perfect chen is EVEN HARDER.

                                                          plz do

                                                            oh wait, im not gonna discuss these thoughts on "logics", because they are fuckin irrelevant. except if u play mb vs bots.

                                                            Stof

                                                              Do i still have time to learn Earth Spirit, or is he going to be nerfed to oblivion next patch?

                                                                how's there only 1 pudge vote? Biggest skill shot in game aside from maybe mirana arrow, difference being mirana can kinda do shit even if she sucks at arrows, pudge can't do anything if he can't land hooks.

                                                                I3ambi

                                                                    registered flex offender

                                                                                    @Seductive_Eist Her skill cap is unbelievable compared to other heroes. I think I remember reading even a couple pros saying no one in the game can effectively use her to the best of her skillset.

                                                                                    PROTECTHIMFROMWHATHEWANTS

                                                                                      all heroes become easy when ur brain actually works.

                                                                                      voker isnt that hard hero u just need better decision making and positioning

                                                                                      i mean learning the spells are something easy.. voker is generaly hard hero

                                                                                      Tinker requires flashy brain and fast moves also this hero is getting u tired after a 1+ hr game

                                                                                      meepo = easy hero

                                                                                      u get full advantage of his microing stuff if u have played wc3 ladder or starcraft in the past
                                                                                      but still he isnt that hard

                                                                                      chen is about microing too

                                                                                      earthspirit seems hard but i guess cause i played him 1 time when he came out and i couldnt do shit

                                                                                      rest are all about the same ammount of skill based mostly on microing
