Itemization:

Dota 2 Lina Guide For Beginners

In some games, you have to itemize according to the game build is the most popular one, and three items should be made in every game: Black King Bar (BKB), Boots of Travel, and Silver Edge.

  • The remaining items you can make accordingly to the game are needed. If your team lack disables or stuns, you can make Scythe of Vyse after converting boots of speed to BOTs, BKB, and Silver edge.

  • If your team has all the disabled, but your carrier cannot man-fight their enemy’s carry, you should make Satanic man-fight any hero. With satanic, She can fight any hero.

  • Her spells grants bonus attack and movement speed each time she casts a spell on creeps or enemy heroes.

Tips For Beginners:

  • If you are a new player, you should play at least 20 games to understand her lane mechanics.

  • Once you have played 20 games, you probably know how aggressive she can in early game during the laning stage.

  • As a beginner, try to rotate in other lanes after your level 6, so you can easily burst down any hero with your Laguna Blade.

  • Tell your support to secure a rune for you since the bottle runes are crucial for mana regeneration to spam your skills.

  • You need to keep spamming your skills and get your Fiery Soul’s charges up so you can harass your enemy and zone him out of the lane; then you can even pressure his tower.

  • If you face difficulty in using second spell light strike array. You can make eul scepter to cast light strike array easily.

Tips For Advanced:

  • Your focus should be on the enemy mid-hero more than the creeps because she can easily zone out his opponent, and then you can take creeps too.

  • Harass out your opponent enough that his supporters come mid to help him. Like this, your other two lanes will have a good time in the laning phase and will thank you later.

  • As soon as your opponent leaves mid to take rune, gank or go jungle, it would be best if you started hitting his tower. It would be best if you took down his building as soon as possible.

  • Try to focus on your farm first rather than ganking other lanes. Farm your Boots Of Travels first so you can easily TP into any lane any time and gank there.

Conclusion:

  • Gank only when needed or when you get a rune-like invisible or haste rune.

  • Always farm in the opposite direction of your team since you have Boots of travels. You can join them anytime.

  • Take the most dangerous side of the map and farm there so your carry can have a safe side of the map to farm freely.

  • Work on your positioning because positioning is the only thing that will make you win the game. Never go in front without popping your BKB because they won't let you open it later.

  • level 25 is essential as it can pierces through spell immunity.
