Sun Wukong + Bluestone Pendant = tons of early damages! He's at the top currently! :D

I'm starting to play Hel a lot now, but mostly in the solo lane, tho she's really versatile and could play mid, except if you find yourself against a Nox or Eset with their annoying silence!

What about Nu Wa?
I tried using her last night. Everyone declared she sucked. Tried arguing against it but jeez.. No love for her.
Ended up laning against Anubis mid lane :/

We're a bit of topic now I guess, but I don't think Rinorim is gonna blame us! xD
Nu Wa is pretty good, especially at pushing a lane, mid lane would be the best spot here. As her ultimate is global, she can play also in the solo lane if she communicates with the team on when to use it ; even if she does not get the kill, she could get an assist, which is really good on the gold perspective).

Kikisocheeky (AFK) is probably the best Nu Wa player currently; have a look on some games he had recently with Nu Wa and you'll see how powerful she can be. Also on Epsilon team they use Nu Wa (mostly in the solo lane tho), which means that 2 of the top 5 teams in the world use her. I don't think she sucks! :D

Anubis has a lot of burst damage and can be a pain in the ***, but he has almost no escape... which is the reason you should always try to put him down by ganking him a lot (that's the jungler's job to help you do that)

Nu Wa is an interesting character from my perspective. I like the solo lane idea, she can split push like a boss with her clay soldiers, because this allows her to easily backdoor, and she's still in the teamfights because of her ultimate.

If you want to play her well, you need to use all of her skills to the proper potential, including her passive, which a lot of players overlook. Sometimes, you need to hold on to that last auto even when you don't want to, lol.

Anubis is a glass cannon risky character, he picks up protections and lifesteal % by hurting people :P this is why his abilities self-root, because he can actually handle it if he's not missing or taking too much damage. In other words, to play Anubis really well... you need to be super confident in yourself, and you need to know how much damage you can deal in all times of the game.

As for going off topic, that's fine, I don't really mind, but I still want more people to look at my guide :P

In the end, you'll never find Anubis in competitive plays as it would be too easy to shut him down with decent communication and team work. However, in casual, if the jungler and/or support does not rotate enough and Anubis out-farm you, you are going to have a painful game. Though, beads ( Greater Purification) is your best defense option.

PS: I upvoted! ;)

Thanks for the information guys. :)
I guess ill struggle with this for a bit, as i dont even know what split pushing even means :/ So [Anubis]] will be a pain for a while.
And since im in a Neith section i may as well ask.
If she got nerfed, or whatever made her drop down the tier list, why is she still one of the most used hunters? In ALMOST every game ive played. Not really any Ramas, or Medusas.

Neith is used a lot, because she is the free hunter. That's the main reason, other reasons are that people think her ultimate is cool, and she is a fairly forgiving hunter. Unless you're getting ganked by a coordinated team... you just backflip and all your sins are forgiven, lol.

Vithaliy, you make good points about Anubis, I occasionally go beads sprint on a god like him.

Thanks for voting :)

well Rinorim you are partly wrong. yes she is free that's a big reason. But she is also the person you play the tutorial with. And a lot of people like to keep playing someone that has been a bit explained.

(In Dota one of the most used heroes in Low levels which let's you pick the newer players is the sniper player as he is the tutorial hero. (you see more heroes a lot in low levels but those are the pubstomp ones that low lvls don't know how to counter))

Wouldn't that make me partly right considering you agreed with my point? You added a point yeah... but why you gotta say I'm wrong? :( that's just not nice

And sniper and DK are used in Dota, because they're easy as beans to play as. lol Sniper gets played a lot period actually... now that I think about it anyways.

haven't seen a lot of snipers in my lvl of play when I stilled played.

the reason why I said partly wrong that cool ultimate is tottally opinion based imo it's more a easy Kill secure ability or global save in some ways (same for xbal's ult with letting others escape)

the second one is the forgiving part. IMO Neiths backflip isn't such a good escape (I find the distance she travels not so much compared with most dashes). her heal makes her a bit more forgiving but still not enough.

adding on my point I see a lot of new players (from my friends) latching to Ashe in the beginning unless someone else picks it or after I explained them that he shouldn't go adc as we already have one
(and well this happened to most of my friends in dota and smite too (with smite being the case that of my brother and 2 friends we brought to the game the 2 friends both fought over Neith (and 1 still kinda does if he would ever decide to play again) my brother preferred Artemis but well he always had something for bows and greek gods) even if I said they could better take another class. After a while we would only queue up in ARAM (bots because of them being new) to force them to pick someone else)
