This is my guide to heroes and what I've learned playing lots of games. Trust me, I know what I'm doing most of the time.
1. Make sure you get boots of speed to make you run faster.
2. Get regeneration if you can't heal yourself.
3. Know when to run your hero(es) away.
4. Use your spells effectively.
5. Stun is a big hero killer. Counter it with invisibility of magic immunity.
6. Always try new heroes. Find out which one works best with your strategy.
7. Beginners should use just 1 hero until they know how to control more then one.
8. In ladder games, getting one really powerful hero or 3 okay heroes is a good idea. Many heroes benefit each other with auras and spells.
9. Don't let your heroes die at all costs. But don't kill enemy heroes at all cost.
10. Best hero killing spell in ladder is storm bolt because of the massive damage and the 5 second stun. Frost Nova with a spell nuke also works well because of the slowing and the damage.
11. Heroes in custom games are fun to use. Your team should get a mixture of strength, agility, and intelligence based heroes so you can take on many kinds of enemies.
12. In ladder games, don't lose your whole army just to kill a enemy hero.
13. Tomes are very helpful if there not to expensive.
14. If your fighting a hero that uses invisibility, get a invisibility detecting item if possible. If you can't, stun a lot, or kill them before they use invisibility.
15. Masks of death are AWESOME for strength and agility based heroes and not that effective with mages because of their amount of damage.
16. If you have more than one hero, give the good items to your weakest hero so it makes it harder to kill the weaker one. But you still need to give your stronger hero some items too.
17. In ladder games, heroes are pretty expensive. I recommend that you but another one when you have more than 1 gold mine or staying in no upkeep mode.
18. Buying scrolls at a shop are a good idea. They might determine the winner of a battle.
19. If you are going to kill a hero in battle. Have your WHOLE army target the enemy hero and use spells.
Well, that's it. If you feel like I missed something, want to comment, point out a mistake, or have a suggestion, please post it. -xyz9999
