It's a common misconception, there are carries, initiators, semi-carries and even supports/semi-supports and bunch of gankers among str heroes.

Well yes and no, strength heroes are, for the most part, more tanky but the majority of the time a team will not chose to focus on them since they are tanky (and take longer to kill than squishy heroes). With no real way to make the team focus on your hero (except Axe) you can't really have a tank per say.

Please don't call them champions, they are heroes in Dota. If you do that in-game you are opening yourself up to be flamed by random pubs who are like "LOL IS DOTA FOR NOOBS." Just trying to save you the hassle haha.

Good jungling heroes in Dota include Nature's Prophet, Naix, Axe, Chen, Enigma, Dark Seer, Enchantress, and Centaur. Thats all I can think of at the moment, probably missed a couple. I can try to help you further if you explain your playstyle more.

The heroes that I find to be really good in DireTime are:
Storm Spirit (roll in roll out)
Tinker (march march march, rocket spam)
Anti-Fun
Chaos Knight
Wisp
Undying
Phantom Lancer (I haven't seen him lose a single game yet, and I've played ~30 so far)
QoP
Disruptor is okay, but I guess you need to know what you're doing
Meepo (since your main+copies each get seperate gold+xp, you will be level 25 while the other 9 are ~15)
Anybody been watching G-1 league? so many good matches, so little time frown.gif

When I feel like trolling people in dota2 I usually start with that same question LOL (pun, get it?)

I like furion for dire tide, but earth shaker is also pretty good in the first phase. Tried weaver and that was ok.. I bet Riki maxing cloud first wouldnt be awful either...
