Best Dota 2 Gankers for Your Team to Score an Epic Victory

We bet you’ve already learned that knowing everything about the role you have chosen in Dota makes it easier to understand what’s going on on screen. So, what do you need to know if you’ve decided that you want to play as a ganker, and which Dota 2 heroes are best for the role?

Well, apparently, ganking (or gang killing, if you are new to the game) requires your full team, or at least the greater part of it, to be on the line and chase the opponents. Ganking is a useful technique designed to push enemies back and to regain control on a difficult line, earn XP and gold advantage, and increase the level of your fellow heroes.

In other words, the more you gank, the higher are your chances for an easy victory. The primary goal of any ganking is to score a pentakill, thus forcing all the enemies to wait for respawn, and not allowing them to farm efficiently.

So, if the whole party participates in a gank fight, why should you choose a specific hero for this role? A hero can be called a good ganker if he or she possesses all the skills necessary to initiate such a fight. In other words, an effective ganker should have skills that will allow them to stun or slow more than one enemy hero, making the pentakill possible for his or her allies.

Best Dota 2 Gankers

If you want to participate in some epic fights today, you should pick a hero suitable for initiating mass fights. So, who is the best ganker in Dota 2 that will help you carry your team to a solid victory – and you to the top positions in the ranked list?
Let’s start off with basic theoretical knowledge. It seems that a victory in MOBA is a result of:

Quick reactions

Tactical thinking

Team play

Thorough knowledge of the abilities of your champion.

There are two main types of champions used for ganking:

Roamers

Specialized gankers

What is the main difference between them, and which Dota 2 heroes for beginners can adopt the role of a ganker?
1. Ganker
As the title suggests, the heroes from this group are incredibly efficient in initiating group fights and granting their team a huge advantage over enemies. Most gankers are capable of destroying an enemy in one-to-one combat relying on the element of surprise. The problem with these heroes is В that they rely heavily on group fights for their farm. This means that choosing to play as a ganker can be a bad idea for a newbie, as scoring kills is difficult at first even in one-to-one combat.

The TOP-5 gankers in Dota 2:

1. Batrider
2. Enchantress
3. Nyx Assassin
4. Spirit Breaker
5. Queen of Pain

But no kills mean no gold and XP, and slow hero development.

Champions of this type are also deemed as great rune carriers, especially when equipped with a bottle. Their movement points allow them to use offensive runes effectively while moving around the map and initiating gank fights.

2. Roamer

This free-spirited hero doesn’t stay in one line – instead, he or she chooses to scout the territory and place wards, ensuring a tactical advantage for their allies. Since this hero doesn’t need to stay in one line for a productive farm, they often aid in ganking, especially when a hero possesses a powerful stun or disable.

The TOP-5 gankers in Dota 2 among roamers:

1. Zeus
2. Lina
3. Leshrac
4. Spirit Breaker
5. Lion

Most of the heroes from this category are capable of ganking before reaching level 6, which makes them powerful allies to play with.

However, these Dota heroes also require extensive knowledge of their abilities and considerable playing skill. If you doubt your gaming abilities, it’s better to opt for a safer choice and pick one of the basic ad carries. If you are determined to play as a roamer, first train with bots and make sure to check out all the tutorials available. Watching pro gamers’ builds and tactics also helps a lot in improving your skill.

Useful Items for Your Hero

Though some gankers are item-independent, the items listed below will make your life easier. If you want to deal impressive damage, move faster, and surprise the opposing heroes, you will need some of the following items:

• Town Portal Scrolls

• Smoke of Deceit
