The 5 Easiest Heroes to Play Dota 2

There are many difficulties and nuances in the second Dota that you need to know. The pros can easily decide who to pit against their rivals. But for a beginner, this is a far-from-studied book. A good hero for a beginner should be easy to learn and without complex skills. So, we have compiled a list of the 5 best Dota 2 heroes for new players.

Crystal Maiden

Crystal Maiden is a good choice for any beginner. He is a universal hero. Her freezing skills are useful for slowing down or stunning enemies while, for example, waiting for allies who can finish off the enemy.
Crystal Maiden is a good partner for Ursa, Juggernaut, and Lina. She is good at counteracting Phantom Assassin, Templar Assassin, and Slark. But it will not be the best choice for opposing Clockwerk, Nyx Assassin, and Bristleback.
Items worth getting: Tranquil Boots, Glimmer Cape, Force Staff, Blink Dagger, Black King Bar, and Aghanim's Scepter.

Skills:

Crystal Nova - blows a frosty wind over the area of action, which causes damage and slows down enemies.
Frostbite - shackles the enemy in ice, causing damage to him.
Arcane Aura - increases mana recovery for all allies on the map.
Freezing Field - random ice explosions occur, slowing down enemies and causing great damage.

Omniknight

Omniknight can be a good support both offensively and defensively. His skills can heal allies by dealing damage to nearby enemies and providing protection to friendly heroes.

Omniknight will be a good companion for characters such as Phantom Assassin, Huskar, and Pudge. He will be able to resist Phantom Assassin, Spectre, and Lifestealer but will be weak in a fight with Invoker, Enchantress, and Oracle.

As for the items, we recommend collecting such a set: Guardian Greaves, Lotus Orb, Blink Dagger, Refresher Orb, Assault Cuirass, and Aghanim's Scepter.

Skills:

Purification - Instantly heals an allied creature and deals damage to enemies around it.
Heavenly Grace - applies strong dispelling to himself and his chosen ally.
Hammer Of Purity - The hero's hammer releases flames at the target to slow it down and deal pure damage to it.
Guardian Angel -  summons a guardian angel who completely protects allies from physical damage.

Ogre Magi

Ogre Magi is one of the simplest heroes in Dota. His entire skill set is easy to explain. Fireblast stuns enemies, Ignite slows them down, and Bloodlust strengthens allies. And Ulta Multicast allows you to use spells and items several times in a row. Ogre Magi is a hero of intelligence, but he has a huge amount of health, which allows the beginner to smooth out a number of mistakes.

It will be best to pair it with Sniper, Luna, and Drow Ranger. Io, Templar Assassin, and Treant Protector are well contrasted, but it is not recommended to contrast them with Meepo, Chaos Knight, and Lifestealer.

For subjects, a good option would be the following set: Arcane Boots, Force Staff, Aghanim Scepter, Aether Lens, Shiwas Guard, and Octarine Core.

Skills:

Fireblast - hits the enemy with a fire wave, dealing damage and stunning.
Ignite - sets fire to enemies.
Bloodlust - increases the attack speed and movement of allies.
Multicast - allows the hero's abilities and items to be triggered several times in one application.

Dragon Knight

Dragon Knight has three active skills and one passive, which increases survival, strengthens armor, and increases regeneration speed. That's why Dragon Knight is one of the best Dota 2 heroes for a beginner.
The Dragon Knight will be best paired with Crystal Maiden, Vengeful Spirit, or Omniknight. He will be a good resistance for Clinkz, Templar Assassin, and Bloodseeker but a bad one for Outworld Devourer, Ancient Apparition, and Timbersaw.
Of the items, it is best to purchase such a set: Power Treads, Silver Edge, Assault Cuirass, Black King Bar, Daedalus, and Heart of Tarrasque.

Skills:

Breathe Fire - burns enemies and reduces damage from their attacks.
Dragon Tail - the hero hits the enemy with his shield in the radius of his attack, stunning him and causing little damage.
Dragon Blood - dragon blood flowing in the hero's veins increases his recovery of health and armor.
Elder Dragon Form - the hero turns into a mighty ancient dragon.

Sniper

Sniper's abilities allow you to destroy enemies without even being noticed. Some items for attack range, agility, and speed can make even a beginner a dangerous enemy.
The sniper is perfectly combined on the line with the Drow Ranger, Ogre Magi, and Vengeful Spirit. It will create a lot of trouble for Drow Ranger, Enigma, and Silencer and get a ton of problems from Bounty Hunter, Clockwerk, and Slark.
We recommend a set of subjects: Power Treads, Hurricane Pike, Daedalus, Silver Edge, Mjollnir, and Butterfly.

Skills:

Shrapnel - uses a charge of shrapnel, covering the specified area with a rain of explosive shot.
Headshot - the hero shoots more accurately, each attack can cause additional damage, push the victim away, and slow it down.
Take Aim- increases the range of attacks.
Assassin - the hero aims at the enemy and, after a short delay, makes a stunning shot.

Viper

Viper is another versatile hero who can perform various functions depending on the style of play. The poison that causes damage and the survival rate make this character strong. And he will also do a lot of damage paired with an experienced melee hero.

Viper will be a good companion on the line for Drow Ranger, Clockwerk, and Faceless Void. He will be able to compete with Enchantress, Abbadon, and Antimage, but it will be very difficult for the hero against Lifestealer, Legion Commander, and Outworld Devourer.

A good set of items will be Power Treads, Hurricane Pike, Butterfly, Black King Bar, Monkey King Bar, and Heart of Tarrasque.

Skills:

Poison Attack - adds poison to the hero's usual attack, reduces the enemy's movement speed and magic resistance, and deals periodic damage.
Nethertoxin - the hero poisons a piece of land, and opponents in the poisoned area receive periodic damage.
Corrosive Skin - the enemy takes damage at close range, and his attacks slow down.
Viper Strike - slows down the attack speed and movement of the selected enemy while inflicting periodic damage on it.
