Hey guys,

I know it's been a while since I last published anything bar a few minor updates and fixes to guides...but my new job seems to be settling down a bit and I'm been looking over my half finished stuff and seeing what could be finished off.

Being the great democracy of Dotafire, I'm putting it to the vote - which of these guides would you most like to see? I'll definitely try to get at least the top voted finished, so choose wisely.

Crystal Maiden - fairly generic Sando guide format with major points around how this hero fits into line ups and when you should pick her.

Ursa - again fairly generic, but it's actually based around new Ursa with his new ult. Looks a lot at his damage maths/item builds.

Avoiding Basic Errors
- actually a lot more finished than I realised. This is a general batch of tips around common mistakes I see in pubs, how to expand your thinking about the game and improve. Aimed mostly at intermediate players.

Item Choices
- large sections on why we itemise heroes in certain ways "fixing their problems", and expands on why particular kinds of damage/item are paired with particular heroes. Also talks a fair bit about flexible versus optimised builds.

VOTE AWAY!

Please post a comment about anything specific you want to see as well!

I'm going for "avoiding basic errors", my favorite by far in the list.
Strategy guide : Anti-pubstomper guide.
Hero guides : Spectre , Windranger and Clinkz
== Broodmother guide out! ==

Ditto. It's probably the most needed one from the list. You could argue that Item Choices is as important, but since proper decision making with Items requires knowledge of the Hero as well as the Items, there's only so far you can go with a general guide imo.

Yeah, it's going to be short though: Don't play him. :D

Item Choices. But what I really, really wanted was a Legion Commander guide, because no one else can help me learn her like you did with your guides to Sand King, Omniknight and so on :(

Basic Mistakes, because sometimes, you gotta make a more PSA type guide and hope it helps someone with bigger pictures.


But after that, I'd love to see a good old fashioned Sando Guide to Ursa.
