Thanks! Its crazy how most beginner guides for most games arent suitable for anyone who has never played before. Its like all those junior role jobs that require 2 years of experience just to fetch coffee haha

Absolutely! (I have played both quite a bit) So in general League > Dota Support > Pos 5 Hard Support Jungle > Pos 4 Soft Support Top > Pos 3 Offlane Mid > Pos 2 Mid ADC > Pos 1 Carry So a top player in league would play offlane in dota. Or if you want to support the top laner (as both side lanes get a support) that would be the Soft Support Depending on if you are Good (Radiant) or Bad (Dire) team will change which lane this is. Radiant (Good) Team: Top Lane = Offlane & Soft Support Bot Lane = Carry & Hard Support Dire (Bad) Team: Top Lane = Carry & Hard Support Bot Lane = Offlane & Soft Support Hope that helps!

Good luck! We'll all need it :D

You know what, I mentioned the goal but didn't explicitly tell you, sorry! The goal is to destroy the enemy base. So you start by killing their towers (the big shooting structures in each lane), and eventually their barracks (the things creeps come out of) and finally the ancient (giant glowing structure in the middle of their base)

I've recently taught the game to a bunch of friends, so I have some more ideas. Just got some more things to test on them ^^

@@greginacastle looking forward to it.

The builds we just get from the guide menu ^^ And for couriers I manage mine with hotkeys. I forget what the defaults are, but you can bind "deliver" and "return" which are the main 2 you will need :) Glad this guide could be a bit more beginner for you though :D

You started playing DotA 2 recently too? I'm way too overwhelmed to even start, I did try it previously but failed miserably. So idk if I will. How is your experience tho?

@@shadowgag4526 I think if you put in lots of time just mastering the basics then you will have a good time but other MOBAs are way easier barrier to entry. I wish I could take Dota2 heroes and put then in other MOBAs. The difference between playing games like HoTS, LoL, and Smite compared to this are too drastic. I feel like this game should be its own category. I login but usually logout before I even start a match because the game is too intimidating.

@@nickstanovic haha that's exactly what used to happen to me, then I'd rather play something like RDR2 xD

@@shadowgag4526 If you guys haven't tried turbo it might be worth a shot. The games are faster and way more casual. Sometimes that makes it harder to learn, but I've recently had success teaching new players in a more chill environment like turbo

You are very welcome ^^ enjoy dota

What has you confused that we didn't cover here? Happy to provide some extra insight where I can

@@greginacastle i just have never played any games before LOL

Thanks!! I made the jump the other way which was much easier. Hopefully this guide by someone with thousands of Smite hours is helpful haha

I go over them in the video! It depends on what role you want to play. Do you want to be the killer carry? the flashy mid? the tanky offlane? or the every helpful supports?

Well I only wasted about 30 seconds then, so not too much was lost. There's plenty of gameplay in the video haha

Bristle is okay yeah. He is more of a pubstomper, so if your friend was to play pos4, you could play bristle and carry them as you know how to abuse it. But a pretty simple character so it would be close to the top of my list to recommend :)

Thanks :) I feel like there was so much more I wanted to say, so there might be a follow-up video for sure!

yeah smite still has an active playerbase, and they are working on Smite 2 ^^

@@greginacastle first time playing was today I love it

Metas come and go sadly, at least cupid remains simple for the player themselves. I will definitely remake this for smite 2 though with some updated info! Thanks for the support <3

@greginacastle I think its also the heal I see so many cupids run out to get their heal to just die to an ability

Thanks! I only play on occassion at the moment myself, but I am coming back hard with Smite 2 which is in development ^^

I've not played in a little bit myself, although I've been meaning to come back and give the new striker a chance. Glad you liked the video! I really wish the game had gotten the success it deserved

That would be me haha, I haven't played in a month or two now! How is it? I do miss Omega Strikers, definitely a highlight of my 2023

I might revisit this for 2024, but generally it holds up. Hirez have added some unique mechanics here and there, but nothing a new player needs to be too worried about ^^

I have played on mobile too and I'm pretty certain you only match against other mobile players. Otherwise I would have struggled a loooooot more 😅

@@greginacastle hope so! I just unlocked Juno, seems best to learn with. hoping to build up to Estell possibly once I've got a handle on it

incredible build 😮

And even more to come with classes still to be worked on :D :D

I know right! The same thing happened to me, got a random talented video, checked it out and damn its too good for the price!!!!

No problem! Good luck out there!!

I haven't played it but have watched it played. Games with prebuilt decks definitely would "solve" that deckbuilding issue, but I guess they remain quite niche as many people enjoy being able to play their own decks. Its a shame it didn't catch on more, I think I would have enjoyed it. I do play Dice Throne and Unmatched which are board games with a similar premise and thoroughly enjoy those.

Awesome, I really enjoyed it!

In the dota 2 client under Arcade :)

That is one of the things that has to be worked on sadly. If they have played other games try to draw comparisons, but if they aren't a gamer be patient as they learn their limits.

Thanks!!
