Guia para Principiantes
Basicos de defensa del Ancestral: heroes, objetos, mapa y objetivos.
Learn the Map
Dota 2 has 3 lanes (Top, Mid, Bottom) connected by a jungle on each side. The Radiant side is bottom-left and Dire is top-right. The river divides the map and contains rune spawn points at 0:00 and every 2 minutes.
Start with Simple Heroes
Play Wraith King (carry), Viper (mid), Bristleback (offlane), Ogre Magi (support), or Lich (support). These heroes have straightforward abilities and are forgiving of mistakes.
Last-Hit Everything
Gold is earned by delivering the killing blow to creeps. Each missed last-hit is 40-70 gold lost. Practice in demo mode until you can consistently hit 50+ last-hits in 10 minutes.
Always Carry a TP Scroll
Town Portal Scrolls (100 gold) let you teleport to any allied building. Always have one in your inventory. Use it to defend towers, escape ganks, or join teamfights across the map.
Watch the Minimap
Glance at the minimap every 3-5 seconds. If you cannot see enemy heroes, assume they are coming for you. Missing enemy heroes on the map means danger. Develop map awareness early.
Follow Recommended Items
The in-game shop has recommended item builds for every hero. Follow these until you understand itemization. Starting items should always include regeneration (Tangoes, Healing Salve).
Use Your Abilities
Do not hoard spells waiting for the perfect moment. Using abilities to secure kills, escape, or farm is better than dying with full mana. Learn each hero's combo order.
Die Less, Farm More
Every death gives the enemy gold and XP while you waste time respawning. Play safely when unsure. Farming jungle camps between fights keeps your gold income steady.
Objectives Win Games
Towers, Roshan, and Barracks are how you win - not kills. After winning a teamfight, push towers instead of chasing survivors. Taking objectives creates permanent map advantages.
Communicate with Your Team
Use chat wheel phrases and pings to communicate. Call missing heroes, request help, and coordinate pushes. Dota 2 is a team game - even the best player cannot win alone consistently.
