Split-Pushing and Positioning: Dread's Advice for Dota 2 Gameplay

Streamer and analyst Andrey "Dread" Golubev shared tips for winning Dota 2 matches, emphasizing lane play, enemy territory control, and other MOBA elements.

"First, always remember that you need to destroy the enemy's buildings. Second, remember, it's an economic strategy. Third, think greedily about your hero, your net worth, and its usage, and also about finding your mistakes. This is the most useful thing you can do to develop," Dread advised.

"Additionally, in matches where you're losing, try to split the map. Stay as far away from your base as possible and split-push the enemies if you have the chance," Dread recommended.

Previously, Dread commented on Enigma, calling the hero an "unreal beast" of patch 7.36c, essential in every match. However, Valve nerfed the hero in a letter update.

In June 2024, Golubev admitted he might stop spending time on Dota, as he gets tired of following the meta.
