what hero are easy to handle and fun for a newb and use what item?

help anyone?

for starters .. use range hero, mostly intell hero. Item is base on your desire. but the best basic is boots to run. always boot at the start of the game so you can run from attacker (since you are a "NooB") and best tactics for you is hit-and-run style. Stick close to your ally as well but dont follow him all the way to the enemy side because he know what he is doing, not you.

i think 4 dota starter..the useful hero is sniper(bcoz his range is quiet long)..try to buy yasha and sange and u will see how he kill the enemy...when have more funds,buy the crystalys...or cranium basher like that..it is my opinion lol.

no melee hero for starters la. range is a better choice. items like lothar edge and dagger should get you escaping fast. try to understand the basics of the skills. then you should be oke. alternatively you can surf the net for strategy play on hero to get an instant tutorial own pawnage.

sniper not safe sure kana bs..
i suggest Lightning Revenant lo

My first hero = phantom assasin, lol

razor should be good for starter. Buy agi equipment

but i think razor life too short....but agi still can , if not sure lose de...

Hmm... at beginning game, yes (life too short, so need to be careful). YOu can buy Eye of Skadi to boost hp and attack speed as well:)

both sniper and razor are easy to use, but their life is tofu and will always become food to enemy. try to play safe (stick to tower if u find enemy hero ms) and always listen to ur ally. dont try to farm alone (neutral farming still ok, but depend on situation), dont cross river unless ur ally ask u to push

or u can try rikimaru .. easy to run

Go for death prophet. Hug tower and wave, once get enough money can buy gosu items. If one on one with opponent, just release your ghosts.

I suggest bones XD, can ww, my fren 1st time play dota with me using this hero, then he keep using it, quite good. mayb can use 5.84 bone's build 4 newb? adding ww n strafe, other go for stat, buy desolator. Newb need more hp ma

my first hero is crystal maiden LOL.
I wonder when i first use it.

my first hero is cm oso...n v win that match..it good to kill other hero or run away...watch out 4 it frost bite..so geng...

my first hero in dota is Crystal Maiden.. can spam mana and can stun.. not sure a good starting hero for newbs.. but it works for me

i recommend u to use naix.. .hard to die can suck back life and no need go back to heal

the 'perfect' choice for beginner, no need do anything..just hit hit hit and dont die

I second that! 40% lifesteal! plus immunity to magic too! What more could you ask for in a str hero?

Use nightstalker, the strongest char at night.
