ur development as a players in these terms goes in several stages
1) you have to think about what to build
2) you dont think about what to build
3) you learn to think about what to build again
higher level of understanding of game mechanics is followed by higher versatility in itemization decisions, because you dont follow the paths, making you own ones instead.
to get to stage 2 u need 2-3 games, as long as u r somehow good in the game, and unless the hero is mechanically unusual, like meepo or es. to get to the 3rd level, u need a very high general skill and/or hundreds of games on a hero.
Anything between 10 and 20 should be great I guess in any skill bracket, as long as u analyse ur own losses and relate it to ur item build and decision making around it ur doing the right thing and also doing what Triple said in a way.
I love the offlaner role so maybe 5-7 trying to keep a small hero to get to know them better and eventually add more heroes to my pool
Im reading this and im suprised. Most people plays several heroes. And most players are good mmr because of playing with few heroes. I can play like 50% of dota heroes in ranked. Maybe its because i played dota 1 for few years.
These 5 hero pool mmr grinding tryhards..
Random, always. It's about fun. And if you want to ask why do I play ranked, well because I am sick of retards abandoning after 0-2.
I have only ever abused heroes when playing against other hero abusers, to teach them a lesson. Winter wyvern was fun, so was undying.
Hoping one day we get to the point where every hero is viable, not "meta" heroes.
all of them. you dont think about item build,u just need to be naga:

All except Meepo and Chen. I'm not exactly good at microing creeps with skills but I can use Illusion ones quite well.
I study dota 2 like how I studied maths in university.
Basically if you go to demo mode, and use gamepedia wiki on dota 2, learn all aspects of the games, hero specifics, like what's basic dispel, strong dispel, and rmb which skills can be dispelled and which skills are auras (non dispellable), and learn all the mechanics
then i can confidently say that you will be able to play just any heroes in ranked and still do well.
Im pretty sure you can climb in all brackets without playing more than 3 different heroes.
Actually who am i kidding you only need to know 1 hero as long as its a meta-cancery-AIDS hero.
I don't agree with Defiance.
yes that works...just play one hero and know the inside out...but what if someone has picked it?
What if the lane has been picked and you have to switch role?
@sunshine it took me probably 1k games before i wasnt in normal skill. I have almost 10x your games played and im sure im not 10x a better player, just spend more time learning the game, not necessarily spamming games. I spent 2 years thinking meepo was OP before i even checked his overall winrate on a website.
If your signature hero is a meta hero that's just being a meta spammer. Like Ursa mains and Sniper mains for example.
But having a signature hero not in the meta is applaudable.
You should think about your builds every game, they shouldn't just be automatic. I think you should qualify the question though. Like what heroes are you confident to pick to win games or something.
I'm confident enough to probably play 30 or so heroes, like I randomed tusk a few games ago and we lost cus our retarded naga with free farm for 30 minutes had no items, but tusk is a pretty easy hero to get the hang of. I'd easily play him again. Or viper. Easy hero to play, I know what to do. But I wouldn't normally pick either of those to win games. Or like PA. I can play PA. I won't pick her to win games. Sniper too, he just sucks right now.
And then there's some heroes where I feel like I know what I'm doing but my win rates are still really bad, so I guess we have to exclude them, like slark, jug, ck, lifestealer and doom. Naix just seems too weak for a few patches now, I usually play fine on him but always lose. Jug and slark I think I play fine but I am awful and knowing when to take fights on them and when to just farm.
So that leaves maybe a dozen heroes in the end.
Carries- wraith king, medusa, sven, spectre, necrophos, dragon knight, LC, gyro. Ck, razor and TB situational picks.
Supports- jakiro, lich, ogre, lion
Mids- not many, I'm bad at mid. Dk maybe.
Offlaners- tide, bristleback
"I spent 2 years thinking meepo was OP before i even checked his overall winrate on a website."
what are you talking about, meepo WAS op, it's just that people didnt know how to play him
once people realized and started learning him and spamming him, icefrog decided to nerf it
@dire wolf what I meant by automatic is you could adjust skill and item build in every game...
If you play that hero a lot of course you can adjust skill and item build..
ez just have a smurf and destroy lower skill bracket players.. u can practice there and even have a great game with any hero cause its all about game knowledge and mechanical skill.. u can throw some teamwork there but y would you, its fucking solo mmr foe godsake :3
@ФАНТОМ РИКИ!!!! my riki is way better than yours but u somehow taught me that divine is part of rikis core items
Ember, Tusk, Witch Doctor, Faceless Void, Invoker, Lina, Juggernaut, Gyrocopter, Earthshakira, Broodmama and obviously OD. (overpowered douchebag)
