[@LoLaSn]

reality: You leave your carry on the lane to help elsewhere, your carry immediately dies

[@unknownsource1485]

typical sea moments and then says "end" if they die lol

[@justpoorie6404]

AHAHAHAH that's so true, that makes me cry😂

[@Just_Van1]

Make pull before leave your carry and he'll be fine under tower 🤓

[@Horrificial]

so true, especially these dumb europe servers, cuz i main pos4-5 i set them up good then go to gank other lanes and tell them, they dive solo and still die like tf??

[@johnong9860]

​@@unknownsource1485 You still make SEA server jokes? When it is proven this things happen all around other servers ..

[@DotaCinema]

Perfect, now I can finally have a chance of winning when I get pos5 when I queue all roles.

Clear, concise and not overwhelming As someone who recently switched to support main, these are the things I'm trying to work and improve on

[@luishurtado2170]

Another tip that doesn't necessarily fit the "laning phase" but will get you a lot of mmr: STOP straight tp'ing after respawning. SAVE your TPs! You may not be fully aware how important this is, but seriously, it makes the game easier for you and your teammates. THINK for a moment. CHECK MAP: is any other lane at risk in the let's say 0 to 30 secs due to potential rotations? (specially when enemy cores reach lvl 6, dangerous runes, etc.) - IF yes, WALK back to YOUR lane. - IF you see HIGH risk at say offlane and you somehow figured out say mid lane is coming to gank, TP there already! - IF you are not sure what lane is at high risk AND you know you tp'ing back to your lane makes no difference, just WALK anywhere you see fit better, at least you have your TP ready. Basically, try to save your TP as much as you can. You may only insta tp back to your lane on very very early game.

[@Cricket0021]

​@@luishurtado2170the half pull is really where i'm struggling at. I always end up pulling the entire wave

[@3arooshy465]

another thing to note, the type of carry is also important, if your carry is a natural pusher such as naga or you pick a support warlock, i personally don’t recommend blocking their camp since your gonna need it yourself because thhe waves are always constantly gonna be pushed in

[@kiploism]

why would u want to push the lanes at the first place as warlock and naga? if u clear the waves so fast, enemy will have free waves. the idea is to reduce the offlane impact while ur farming

[@3arooshy465]

@@kiploism normally no one would want to push the lanes, but naga or walrock or jakiro will inevitably push the waves due to their abilities (maybe jakiro not if they use their skills without affecting the wave) but for naga its really inevitable, if she wants to harass enemies she will have to send illusions at them and hit the wave constantly to keep proc riptides, but regardless of that she is a hero that can clear jungle and a wave at the same time at minute 4 if she has a decent or a winning matchup. if her matchup is good you now harrasing the enemy and getting all the wave and also farming a jungle at the same time so yes you may be pushing the wave but also farming jungle at the same time while they are being harassed and only getting lane creeps sry for long reply but i had to explain all the details

[@kiploism]

​@@3arooshy465 the offlane still gonna fat if u give free waves

[@3arooshy465]

@@kiploism and the solution to that is my main comment itself, don’t block the big camp because your gonna use it to kill your own wave or at least deny two of your creeps, the lane will restart to being close to ur tower and gonna harass and farm the wave witht procing riptides and rinse and repeat, im not a pro or immortal player but im sying all this because i am an advanced naga player myself

[@hkscfreak]

Came here as a warlock spammer, don't block the hard camp. Maybe at first but if it expires or they deward it it's fine. Let them pull and then fatal bonds the enemy to all the creeps and then upheaval. Watch offlane explode. Sure, your carry might have missed a wave but now the offlaner is dead or low HP and can't even touch a creep.

That’s why ench is favored by pro player, you can destroy early game with limited support item, you have free heal and every time the enemy try to pull, you just enchant the creep and farm them without spending 50 gold to prevent that

[@oskarkugelberg9738]

Thank you so much this is great! Staying active as pos 5 and helping other lanes is what I love about the new size of the map and the objectives. Would be great to know when to pull and how to do half pull. I tend to not pull so much as I prioritize harassing the enemy instead

[@johnstevenalejandro3034]

This type of content really helps! Thanks

[@AToyGoat]

Love these! Would love one on playing the lane as a meele support, especially vs ranged heroes! I've always struggled laning/positioning in sitations like that

[@KheZu]

Will make sure to add that to the list Generally this one is either about 1) soaking pressure with heroes like undying or 2) if you play tusk, you want to use fog a lot and try to apply pressure with tag team or lvlup timings to get kills

[@leothelion3913]

1) Buy stats and regen to win trades and enable your carry 2) Always block their big camp and unblock your small camp 3) Trade with pos 4 if you are stronger. If not - harass their pos 3 4) Half pull 2-3 creeps on small camp if lane is pushed 5) 2:40 Prepare to get lotus 6) 5:00 Look for places where you can rotate and help your teammates 7) 5:40 Prepare to help get the power rune 8) 6:30 Prepare to go for enemy wisdom rune if you have a stun

[@musiclight3457]

Nice!! So easy to do and so to the point. Thanks for the tips - it's worth its weight in gold! I would love to see a short guide like this for every role :)

[@KheZu]

Will look to do that asap!

[@GenjaOrigins]

good job i searched a lot for play early lane@@KheZu . Maybe a single pull to push wave naturally min2. ward at 5-6 min top left of bountry rune to see roaming enemies woud complete this a bit more. Maybe when carry goes woods single pull to farm under tower for safety cause it will push wave but who cares you just want the gold xp safe under tower. When leave core eg axe with vanguard so you need leave him maybe. mm if catapults are in other lane you go push . Maybe just leaving commend here if anyone sees. I dont know what is missing im trying to figure it out.

[@atticussicking7951]

Amazing content KheZu, we all really appreciate it! Could you make a video explaining how to play the midgame as a support? I'm good at following your tips in the laning phase and I win most of my lanes, but I feel completely lost in the midgame. I feel like I always make the wrong decision. For example - If I smoke with my mid/offlaner, we get wiped more often than not.

[@KheZu]

I already have a little bit of a followup ready for the future. Before uploading , since it will take a long time, ill try to give you quick advice Generally you can 2 modes in Dota which keep fluctuating back and forth Agressive and defensive You are skywrath/snapfire/grim, most of the time u wanna play agro and help get kills with your mid or offlaner if they are ready. inbetween cooldowns you can play defensive and protect your cores or place wards If you are a hero like SD/venge/warlock and there are no agro plays currently, look to enable your cores by helping them farm (break smokes, stack) untill theres a timing and go back to mode 1 (agro)

You could also touch the topics of how better to use your resources on lane, on how to trade with pos 4 and when. How not to waste your spells sometimes, since that opens a window for enemy duo to kill you or your carry. Which items you priorities buying first minutes of laning etc. Great vid regardless

[@Cricket0021]

This is a very solid advice. I'm currently on an 11 game winning streak just by abusing this trick. I go into games just dedicated to not let the enemy offlane get the hard camp. Just keep blocking the camp until minute 5 mark where most of the time my pos 1 is ready to jungle and just dip in an out of lane to catch creepwave

I like this Dota how-to more than many others. It's short and straight to the point - IDK mf's out there thinking posting an entire 50 minute match is helpful (it's the equivalent of 'hey you wanna go be good? just watch me play'). Your video did something they also don't normally do; you provide insight as to why you do things and what goes through your mind. TY!

The purchase from Snake is really very cool. I have everything the same, but in addition to 3 trees I also take tango and mango

[@manueltusche9863]

Danke für deinen Content KheZu. Bitte weiter so, kurz auf den Punkt gebracht und sehr informativ. Ich spiele selbst im 3 -4K Bereich und weis eigentlich alles was du eben erklärt hast. Aber manchmal laufen Spiele in diesem Bracket einfach total out of Order und ab und zu ist es dann schwierig diszipliniert zu sein, aber ich arbeite daran. Könntest du bitte mal ein Video übers warden machen? Und ich meine nicht early Game, das hast du ja schon gezeigt, sondern eher Richtung mid und End Game und in welchen Situationen was sinnvoll ist. Ich sehe viele Spieler die permanent Standard wards setzen die dann sofort wieder weg sind oder an den falschen Positionen wo sie die auch schon im early game schon hatten. Danke und Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪

[@curtin-hammett]

hi khezu! will pos4 be somewhat similar? block the easy camp and unblock the hard camp? lotus pools at 3mins, rotate at 5, secure runes at 6, and wisdom at 7?

[@KheZu]

its not as simple, but thats a small guideline for pos 4's yeah!

[@ProducShuns]

Amazing. I've been loving venge in pos5 recently. Her early stats are actually insane so you can trade favourably or even kill most pos4 supps in many cases. Armor reduction from her W helps to harrass any tanky offlaners like Axe. You have stun that can help turn fights if they dive tower bot. And once your carry has a bit of farm & is setup in lane, go roam and get kills with stun in other lanes. If executed properly you can win safe lane for your carry giving them a great start and have a positive impact on offlane as well. 2/3 lanes in good position should set you up to take mid game and eventually win. To scale the hero into mid & late game, look at what your team needs. Move speed? Build drums into boots of bearing. Saves? Build solar crest. Up against tanky heroes? Build urn into vessel and shred HP. If all else fails, build hurricane pike into aghs and become a right clicking core with 2 lives 😂 Honestly she's so versatile I love it.

[@KheZu]

Venge is a great hero rn, all spells are good, good stats and good trading + As you said good itemization tempo with drums/vlads scaling with aghs counter tempo with vessel also remember Rosh

[@PIEjaar]

great content!! best time to hit NC for half pull btw??

[@KheZu]

generally around :20/:50!

[@kimbarsumo1413]

What if its a losing lane? What can you do to help your carry catch up? Specially when your carry can't farm jungle like AM, PA and etc. Btw nice vid!

[@Kumamentaria]

Should do a video on how to know which objective to take

[@udatchi]

What do u think about stacking the easy camp and just killing the whole wave? I usually half pull if the enemy lane is strong but if its weak i just try to stack and deny the entire wave

[@KheZu]

stacking S tier play if you can

[@ASOCIEDADEINDUSTRIALESEUFUTURO]

Thats a Big Brain play

[@eStoky23]

Best basic build for pos5 is for me: 1 set of tangoes, 2 sentries, stick, 2 branches and faerie fire. But there are couple of rules I figure out way, way too late in my dota life (6k games played). 1. 95% of games you dont need mana regen item from start of the game. You have full mana pool, and you have one spell, so you can't burn it all in 1-2 minutes in the game. 1st courier trip can handle it. 2. use your courier asap. Right after bounty runes you have extra approx 100-150 gold to play with. If you use it right away you have adventage 3. harrass is priority no.1 like 95% of the time. you can pull, you can last hit far away creep, but you MUST harras and trade hits. 4. Never underestimate additional regen. Don't try to save money on it. Get tangos, salve, clarity, mango in time, not when you are out and have like 20% of HP. 5. Infused Raindrop is BiS in 90% games as pos5 in early game. It gives you like 5-6 extra stenght worth of HP (bracer) in fight. And mana regen of sages mask. It is retarded how good it is.

[@arkarwmh]

I've been doing exactly ALL of these (maybe even more that overkills, ie, buying 2-3 sens since start all the time for camp war, trade with enemy like hell to cover my carry, always steal W runes, smoke gank all the time), and yet still stuck in Archon.

[@botnarialexandru5433]

Useful guide 🔥🔥🔥

[@KheZu]

thank you!

[@RoketNek]

Im really new to dota and i'm not sure how do you do the "half" pull on the easy camp as radiant? The one you only send 2-3 creeps to the neutral camp

[@KheZu]

Time it between :18 and :21 or second option, hit neutrals, stand still, and now time your wave with the second time the neutrals hit you

[@zachatnca]
