If they last hit one of their creeps instead of you, it’s called a deny and an exclamation(!) point will appear over their head, showing that the creep was denied. This may make you think that this allows you and your opponent to stand in the same lane, but your opponent can attack their creeps when they get below half of their Health Points (HP) by pressing the ‘A’ key for attack and then left clicking their creeps. However, last hitting is still extremely important because if you can last hit more often than your opponents, you will help your team get the gold advantage that allows you to buy the items that win you the fights that wins you the game. In addition to last hitting, every player gets 5 gold every 3 seconds just by being in the game.

Learn to get the last hit on a creep so that you get gold in addition to exp. This is the first thing that you will have to practice to become a better than average Dota player. If you are the hero that does the final damaging blow to kill a creep (called the last hit), then you also get gold! If you do not get the last hit, you only get experience, assuming that you are close enough. Most heroes do a low amount of right click damage in the early game because their levels are low and you have little gold to purchase expensive and strong items. This is the main way that you do damage, especially in the early game. All heroes have a basic attack that is often called a right click or right clicking. If there is an enemy where you right click, you will issue an attack command, which means your hero will move to that target and attack when in range. To move your hero to go to these lanes, you select your hero by left clicking on your hero and then right click the ground to move your hero to that position. You want to be close by for that because when your enemies’ creeps die, they release experience for your team in the area. These creeps run down each lane for both teams and attack each other until they die. There are three lanes that spawn creeps every 30 seconds at the :00 and :30 mark for the entire game. How you go about doing this is playing Dota. If you gain a significant exp and gold advantage by the later stages of the game, it usually allows your team to destroy all heroes in your path, followed immediately by buildings, and ultimately finish killing the enemy Ancient, upon which you win the game. Your goal is to spend your time gaining exp and gold as fast as possible, or assisting your team in doing so while limiting and reducing your opponents’ exp and gold gain.
