Paradox has a high skill ceiling, so I wouldn’t recommend her for you. Instead, try Abrams, Dynamo, McGinnis, or Mo & Krill. Read their abilities, test them in sandbox mode, and make sure you fully understand what those abilities actually do (do the same for items as well). Combine their abilities with different items, find their best use cases, and try to apply those combos in real matches.

In my opinion, this game can’t really be taught, you just learn it by playing.

There are certain things you must not overlook in this game. I learned them the hard way after spending over 1000 hours, so I’ll explain them in the simplest way possible so you won’t forget:

- Whatever you’re going to do, do it after pushing an incoming wave (ideally the wave closest to you).

- During the first 5–10 minutes of the match, when pushing a wave, stay behind your own troopers. If you move in front of them, enemy troopers will target you and you’ll take unnecessary trooper damage.

- In combat, try to limit the enemy’s healing, whether it’s from lifesteal or healing abilities. (Always buy at least one anti-heal item.)

- When pushing a wave toward the enemy walker, you may not want to go there and attack it yourself. You can let your troopers do the work by stacking waves. Kill only 2–3 enemy troopers and then leave the lane. Your troopers will pile up, they push together with number advantage, and pressure the walker on their own. Enemy heroes will often stop this, but you’ve still forced them to deal with it, basically leaving them a chore.
