Hi!
I'm Bart and I suck at Dota.

I've played about 20 to 30 games watched a bunch of pro games, lately I've been watching some of the International games.

Watching pro's play doesn't teach be a lot though, because I don't grasp many of the basics like the different roles in a team yet it's hard to see the tactics they're using. So I'd love to tag along with someone sometime who could teach me some of the basics.

Also if someone could point me to some video's that teach the different roles in an actual game context that would be great, the videos I ran into mostly just mention the absolute basics like a carry should do this, a jungler should do that. But a video that sticks with a specific role and explains his actions throughout a complete game would be awesome.

I hear a lot about Dota 2 having a harsh community and that there's quite a lot of ranting on the chats but so far i've encountered mostly helpful people who do tell me if I'm messing up. However I'd like to learn a bit faster, just running around in a game and trying stuff out doesn't seem like the most productive way to go

Heya Unopolak,
sadly I won't be able to make it this saturday but I am watching the purge videos atm and i'll join the TS server next time I've got time for some games. Thanks!

I have no clue what you're talking about Alverez so probably not
