1. Stout shield is one of the best starting items on a melee carry. If you are ranged, start with your respective stat items and a lot of heal.

2. Don't be a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and use the courier to get your slippers of aglity to make your pms before your mid gets his bottle. Know your place on the courier priority chain, maggot ! <3

3. It's a good idea to turn of auto attack if you randomly attack creeps. Just last hit. Remember to showcase your class. If your support sees you pushing the lane and missing a lot of creeps, he's not really going to support you wholeheartedly.

So last hit well and learn the art of farming. A good carry player always keeps his creeps under the tower by maintaining creep equilibrium.

4. It's efficient to farm medium camps as well when your lane creeps are over. A blink to a camp as AM, a powershot as windranger, or even an arrow at large camp as mirana is actually quite effective.

5. Always identify enemy threats on minimap by colours or hero icons. If you are AM and you see a BS on the mini map, get the ♥♥♥♥ out of there and tp to the other side of the map.

6. Don't afk farm for 30 mins and be a worthless pile of crap. If your team needs you to push or help in fights, don't hesitiate to help. Always keep a tp. A quick haunt as spectre or a quick tp and mana void is a faster way to reach your radiance or bf respectively.

7. Don't be one of those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who'll skip a boot ( unless you're weaver ) and always carry a tp.

8. It's not a sin to use your spells to farm. Your farming speed and efficiency improves a ton. Do remember to cut creeps if your opponent is pushing and if you can't take a fight directly. Split pushing buys a ton of time to recover as well. :)

9. Don't be that jerk who lets his supports die. Help them out, the more you help, the more active your team will help you carry the game.

10. Buy BKB when and if needed, BKB is a very good item , don't be a maggot who doesn't buy bkb and dies to magic all the time.

11. Request your team to pull, stack and ward for you if they're not doing so. Don't be a harsh ♥♥♥♥♥♥. They're your supports, not your slaves. You'll do well to remember this.

12. Here's some farming tips :

On melee: Go for items such as midas/bf/radiance/ and on ranged: maelstorm to mjollnir. Midas is pretty good on ranged too at times :)

Always having 1 and a max of 2 of these farm accelerators will help you on your way to making your items soon.

13. Choosing the right talent :

Always see which talent will suit you better.

As spectre in level 20, you get +20 str vs +30 attack speed.

+20 str = 2 ogre club's = 2k gold. +30 As = 2 gloves of haste = 1k gold.

Bonus hp + regen vs Attack speed.
2k vs 1k

So you obviously go for the +20 strength. :)


14. Choosing the right items :

Always go for items which give you stats over raw damage.

While a moonshard gives you immense attack speed, A butterfly gives you DMG, AS, Evasion, Armor and aglity :) .


Don't be that idiot who makes an MKB as first item on drow just because you see an PA on the enemy team. Why not ? Because everyone will be laughing at you when you die to a dagger crit from PA.

Lesson to be learnt : Always build your hero first. If you can't survive, you can't deal the dmg.


15. Finally, be gratful to your team for supporting you. Send well played and Applauses during the game and be kind with words. Remember to commend people who helped you farm. Because you are ♥♥♥♥ without them.

Good luck with your games :)
