How to kill creeps in Dota 2

Knowing how to get creeps in Dota 2 and when to do it allows a player to quickly pump up his hero, due to his higher level (for example, in dealing damage or in defense against enemy attacks) to get overwhelming superiority over the enemy and destroy the Throne, the main goal of the game.

Why are creeps so important, why is it impossible to reach both top and average players without understanding the mechanism of getting them? The thing is that creeps – is a source of gold and experience for heroes, and nafarit, i.e. to take the account gold and experience, can only the player who inflicted the creep final kick. It's not uncommon for a Doter to damage a creep, but a cunning opponent seizes the moment, flattens the creep and takes all the profit, leaving the opponent with a nose.

Next we will describe in detail how to learn how to get creeps in Dota 2, make the right actions to get and avoid losing valuable resources required for character development.

Creeps in Dota 2: what types are

Creeps are

called all creatures on the playing field, except for heroes, couriers, wards, and buildings. By the way, not unfamous Roshan, capable of defeating almost any hero in a 1 on 1 battle, – is also a creep, only the most powerful of them.

Creeps are divided into several types:

1. Allied. Help you and your teammates during the game.

2. Enemy. Confront you and your teammates and help your opponents. Attack and achieve by right-clicking on them.

3. Neutral. They are located in the forest near the spawn points and aggro all players without exception. Of course, they should also be used to mine for gold and experience. By the way, Roshan is among the neutral creeps.

Creeps, except for neutral creeps, move from their spawn points into enemy territory to attack it. During such battles, player-controlled heroes not only try to zamamazhimi each other, but also compete for flipper hits on creeps. During such skirmishes, it is important to learn how to properly kill creeps in Dota 2.

Killing

Allied Creeps (Part 1)

Killing

creeps

that help your character is called «denai». There is a reason for destroying allies: this way you will prevent the enemy from quickly gaining experience and gold, which he will later convert into an advantage over you (in development level, in attack and spell power, etc.) and eventually into victory.

The game allows you to attack allies only if their health has dropped below 50%. After the denai, the enemy team will gain 40% of all possible experience for destroying a creep, and you – 20% of gold from the total cost of the unit.

Now let's go directly to killing allied creeps in Dota 2.

Initially

,

destroying your own creeps is sharpened to the combination A (in English layout) + pressing the LKM exactly on the creep. There are several ways to reassign this combination to one key or one mouse button in order to speed up the killing process, because during a match its outcome is often decided by fractions of

a

second.

So, the first option:

1. Go to «Settings» (to enter during a match, look for the gear in the upper left corner of the screen and click on it).

2. At the bottom there will be an item called «Forced right-click attack», enable it. Now you can both attack and kill friendly creeps by clicking on them with PCM.

Second option. Through the gear, which is in the upper left corner of the screen, access the menu during the game. Find the tab «Management» and click on it. On the left in large letters it will say «Unit Actions». In this subgroup, look for «Attack» and click on the rectangle colored gray. Assign the desired key or, if you prefer, the mouse button. You can then return to the match as the setting is set.

Finishing Allied Creeps (Part 3)

Another option for

finishing cre

eps in Dota 2 involves using the console. Initially it is deactivated in every Doter, so if you have not turned it on before, then the commands will not work

for

you.

The algorithm for activating the console is as follows

:

1. Click on the name of the game Dota 2 in Stim using the PCM, in the menu click on «Properties».

2. You will find yourself in the general properties. At the bottom, find the section «Launch Options» and in the empty line write –console (be sure to minus and without spaces).

3. Then start Dota 2 and go to the main menu.

4. Click on «Management» and look in the middle of the screen at the very bottom. There you should find the item «Advanced settings», enter it.

5. Here you need to assign a key to open the console, for example, K.

6. In the activated console at the bottom of the line where the cursor is located, specify «dota_force_right_click_attack 1» and confirm with Enter. To cancel the command instead of «1» write «0».

Now you know that you can kill allied creeps in Dota 2 using the console. The method has one disadvantage: the commands are not saved, and the next time you enter the game

you

need to re-enter them.

Learning how to get creeps in Dota 2

The skill to flipper creeps is too valuable and important to let it go to waste. I will note that there are several options for practicing this skill. The main – is daily and purposeful pumping of the skill.

For a beginner it is most useful to start with the demo mode for heroes. It is launched through a tab called «Heroes», then you need to select a hero and after that in the opened window click on «Try out». This is the best option to get creeps in Dota 2, but, unfortunately, this mode is absolutely not like a normal game. Here creeps will attack you in packs, which is not in a real match, and you will not have the opportunity to practice on neutrals.

If you want full realism, then you need to make a special game in the lobby. It has console commands, neutral creeps, and full control over the game from your side.

Upgrade in Last Hit Trainer

The trick of this mode is the presence of a hero from the enemy side, which is controlled by the game (i.e. it is a regular bot). The goal of this bot – is to make your life more difficult, create the atmosphere of real combat and help you learn how to correctly kill creeps in Dota 2.

To access Last Hit Trainer, you need to enable the console. If you are interested in how to do this, see the chapter «Dobbing Allied Creeps (Part 3)». After opening the console in the line where the commands are written, you need to type «dota_tutorial_start lasthit» and confirm

with

Enter.

Wait for the end of loading, choose your hero and plunge into a 10-minute battle with a bot for lusthit creeps.

In the lower left corner of the screen after the game starts, two boxes will appear

.

The first of them shows your stats, while the second window allows you to set the line to which creeps will move, as well as enable or disable tooltips. As for hints, I suggest you include them. They will signal you whether you are doing the right or wrong thing.

In our personal opinion, Last Hit Trainer – is probably the best

way to

learn how to

farm

creeps in Dota 2.

Useful tips on

how

to farm

creeps

We want to tell you about a very simple, but extremely effective way to farm creeps by tricking

your

opponent. It is important that the creep has more health left than 1 hit. You need to pretend like you are about to attack a creep (swing at it) and cancel the attack at the last moment so that the opponent will fall for it and kick it. Then you immediately flipper the unit, taking everything for yourself.

Another useful tip to correctly get creeps in Dota 2 and how to do it, is to disable auto-attack. At first, while you are not used to the mechanics of getting it, its use is quite justified, then with the increase of your level it is desirable not to abuse the auto-attack. In the heat of battle, you may not notice how your hero will gag a huge number of creeps, which will greatly reduce XP or even send to the fountain.

And more. Act from behind friendly creeps and let them get into the thick of the battle. All you have to do is keep a close eye on when enemy units are low on health and give them the final blow.
