Are you able to form a party of 2 to 'practice 1v1'?

You can just go into a private lobby together with the "Mid only" flag checked.
Part of the problem.

Hi guys, I'm a LoL player but want to try DotA2 just for something new and to learn a little bit more about the genre. Any tips?

Try this I think?

In general if you have questions feel free to ask.

Don't start with meepo/invoker/chen.

Just tried a little bot game. Holy shit. I can deselect my hero? Why would I ever want to do that?

In this game you can control multiple units and many heroes depend on it. Chen has a spell that allows him to control neutral creeps (who all have their own individual powers he can use). Lone druid has a bear that can use items. Meepo literally has three clones of himself (four if you get a certain item).

If you plan on tackling any of these heroes any time soon, use control groups.

Of course, most of the heroes this doesn't really apply to so you probably don't have to worry about it.

Also if you ever wanted to look at another hero's items or something.

But that's the thing, in LoL if I select another hero to look at the items the game doesn't go "Whelp, guess you want to play as them now." The game assumes movement commands still refer to the character that I am in control of, not the one that I have selected.

Dota 2 does that too when selecting enemies, but if you select your own units it overrides selection of your character.

You can also control teamates that have abandoned. Usually not recommended. But once i did win a game by myself controlling 3 heroes!

i jsut watched the EG alliance game. And i'm wondering if rtz died top on purpose around 25 minutes just to set up that bait play at 32. Cause if so that's pretty sick.
