I have played for nearly 10 years and 99pc of that time is with bots

My internet connection is bad, so I usually only play against Unfair bots and usually win. I thought about doing some random sharing today. Here are my playstyle in a nutshell.

-I generally only play ranged heroes because I can't last hits with melee ones, except with Bristleback because of quil spray

-When I'm unsure what to build, I just get a BKB

-Yes, I toggle Vambrace and power treads

-My micro management is beyond horrible, so heroes with illusions or Invoker are out of the question. Don't even mention Necronomicon

-I generally know which heroes counter which heroes, but this doesn't mean I can execute those heroes

-I generally know what items to build to counter certain heroes ie get mana burn if you're against Medusa, but I'm still generally terrible

-I have a very bad reaction time and have trouble looking at the map while still controlling my hero

-I don't know where to place wards, let alone where to de-ward (when I play Venomancer, I litter the map with plague wards)

-I know what smoke is for and how it works, but never bought it or understand when is the best time to use it

-I place a sentry ward when we do Roshan, to check if there's enemy ward around

-I play on the Radiant side so much that I struggle when I play on Dire side, because I have to look at the map upside down

-50% of the time my stacking, pulls and blocking failed

-For the first six months of playing Dota, I only played Death Prophet because all I had to do was spam Q in lane and press R in team fights (there was no Death Siphon yet, but a passive for E)

-Heroes I'm sort of decent at now are – Death Prophet, Necrophos, Lina, Crystal Maiden, Razor, Jakiro, Skywrath Mage

-Heroes I should stay away from – all STR heroes, as well as Invoker, Naga, Meepo, Arc Warden, Chen

-Heroes I've tried playing but suck at – Juggernaut, Abaddon, Wraith King, Shadow Fiend, QoP, ES

-Of the few times I played with friends who had decent MMR, I did okay

These are ones that I can think off right now! Just getting them out of my chest =)

Edit:

-I don't memorise the recipes for items or where they are placed in the shop, so I have to manually type the names of the items I want to buy (I only just recently found out Eul can be upgraded, what?)

-Many years later, I am still hoping for a Reaves' announcer pack for "Magnus, no!"

-I know I should maybe take off stat items when using bottle charges in the early game, but I don't because my reflex is so slow I might end up getting ganked while doing so
