Hello all,

I'm a HoN player who is switching to Dota2 because I have more friends who can play/start a clan with. I will probably be captain. I have a bunch of questions about the meta that hopefully you guys can answer.

1. Is Dual Mid suicide jungler solo short lane a good strategy? For example: Earthshaker crystal maiden mid, Queen of Pain long lane, chen jungle, and riki short lane.

2. Hardest Neutral camp stack- In HoN they are called ancients - the camp near the secret shop--- When is a good level to take out a penta stack? In HoN there are triple stacks so you can usually take them around level 6-7. I'm assuming since it is a 5 stack it would be more like level 10-11?

3. Push heavy teams? Is this a strat in Dota2? for example Chen Lycanthrope Warlock ... ... ? For example team stayGreen in HoN runs a line up similar to this.

4. Most Banned/Picked heroes? I looked at the list and there aren't a lot of HoN heroes (ported Dota heroes) in the current meta. If we started out playing HoN heroes would we be at a big disadvantage? For example-- Initiator-- Sand King/Tiny/Slardar Support-- Lina/Crystal Maiden Jungler-- Enigma/Chen/Lycanthrope/Lone Druid Suicide-- QoP/Puck/Clockwerk/Treant/BeastMaster Solo Short-- Riki/Razor/Spectre

Thanks!!!!!
