General DiscussionThoughts on spamming heroes

I know that a lot of people do this, and I myself do this quite often (Troll > AM > Weaver > Riki). But there are people who say that through playing just a few heroes, you don’t really improve and once you play different heroes, you end up losing.

What are your thoughts on this?

I think it’s wrong, because despite playing a few heroes, I’m able to get better feel of the game and I feel like my impact on whether I play my spam hero is the same as a regular hero. It’s just that the heroes I spam pretty much guarantee me a win.

it helps me learn

maybe it doesnt hepl u, but i know it helps a lot of people

u dont have to spam a super meta hero. i spammed ww when she was 50 flat winrate and did great.

It’s good
I stagnated when I play different heroes alot

its a matter of improving efficiently. it helps to learn the heroes you do spam A LOT faster. you could always move on to difrerent heroes once you felt you’ve learnt enough for one hero. then u move on to a different role. but spamming just makes it efficient, rather than randoming every game and taking 10000 games to climb 500 mmr.

you don’t have to stick to 3 hero pool. but of course some ppl stick to less heroes because their threshold for practice is way larger. they want to ‘perfect’ a hero before they learn something new. of course u might end up being completely insane like 10k games on slark. and that scenario you kinda wanna avoid because you might get so used to playing one hero you can’t play other heroes.

I think you should limit yourself to heroes of one position at least. Every role has nearly 30 heroes.

^nice name and pic

Spam Rubick first pick mid. Ez +25.

What most people fail to realize is that when you spam you dont just learn that hero. You infact learn the other 9 heroes better since you dont change.

Everyone who’s dead-serious about improving should work on lowering their versatility to 5-10 heroes per meta, with occasional picks outside it as hardcounters to enemy drafts.

Hello waga nice to see you again. I might spam TA but I hate midland. Illl let you know how safelane Ta works out.

i can approve spamming made me learn way faster u can see the results both on this account and https://www. dotabuff. com/players/319627113

Wow a Waga comment, cool.
You heard it here first, versatility is useless, just stick to 5-10 heroes. (personally I cry, I’ve always prided myself in being able and open to playing all heroes, and calling out spammers as “fake MMR”. Only started spamming recently for the sake of MMR, didn’t feel the improvement)

Versatility is overrated. Your knowledge gets spread too thin and you get 5K players who either don’t even know their hero’s skill and item build, or people who follow meta-builds too rigidly and can’t adapt to situations.

I was 4k until i started spamming invoker
then I got 5k
but spamming just 1 hero was bad.
(3000+ games same hero sigh)

when i started getting about 5 + Good main heroes.
i gained sick mmr and knowledge about the game.. about 5.5k ish.
when i now spammed a better hero. now with 1000 + games clock i rape in 6k bracket!
It’s exactly like waga said.
since dota 2 is to complex you can be so much better with certain heroes. during certain metas.
having played 10 games or 1000 is insanly different Especially even in higher 5.5k+ brackets.
Where one would asume that there would be lesser difference in skill.
