Good Durable Carries to Master?

[=== [OT]]

Hey everyone,

I'm kinda new to DotA 2 and I've found that I really like Strength Carries and so I came here to ask an experienced player which Strength Carries are capable of doing good damage as well as being reasonably tanky, especially well when played properly?

I've seen a lot of play with Kunkka but I've also seen some really good Slardars absolutely dominating, so I would like to hear you ropinions. Thanks.

Oh yes. That one is deadly. When i see him i just switch lane. too much hp, specially later in lvl and waaaay too dangerous.

There is so many good Strength carries.

Sven has a good stun, good damage output, and his passive allows him to hit lots of enemies at once. Good STR carry.

Dragon Knight als has a good stun and damage output, but is a bit more focused on killing single targets rather than attacking the entire enemy team, and is also more focused on durability than Sven. Good STR carry.

Skeleton King takes a while to get on a roll, but once he's fed he is nearly unstoppable, not only being hard to kill while doing good damage with his crits, but also resurrecting, meaning all those abilities used to kill him in the first place are now unavailable. Good STR carry

Spirit Breaker is very good at taking out a single target, and if he is allowed to snowball he can charge into the enemy team and wreak havoc late game. Good STR carry.

Lifestealer can farm pretty good, and his magic immunity ability and his ult make him very hard to kill while hitting hard and fast. Good STR carry.

Doom has one of the strongest ults as far as single target ults go, and with items to make up for his innate problems (low armor and attack speed) he is an unstoppable force. Good STR carry.

Chaos Knight's ult has about the same effect as Phantom Lancer and Naga Siren: If the match goes on too long he and his illusions end up smashing everything. Good STR carry.

You forgot to mention Huskar, first time I ever played as him I carried 28-0. He does more damage the lower his health is, so if you don't burst him down fast... you are dead. Usually, I dont take more than 1 lvl of his autocast (to harrass in lane), and acquire lifesteal instead. More damage the lower your health is = near-insant regen w/ Satanic = you are unkillable without something such as Black Hole.

he does'nt have more damage if his health is low, valve change it, (berserker's blood) - Maximum bonus (14 stacks) is achieved when Huskar has strictly less than 3% of his maximum HP, which will provide 112/168/224/280 attack speed and 56%/70%/84%/98% magic resistance

What can I say but , passive dodge which comes VERY handy late game , he has a free high crit , good damage , AMAZING teamfight abilities , and just overall awesome . ( thats brewmaster btw ==> )

[Speefer]

Ooops messed up , well anyway this is brew master ===>

Dragon Knight is one of my favorite strength carries, with a lot of flexibility in item build and skill build, he can take any lane and do well and scales well through the mid game. Another great strength carry is Sven, for some of the highest crit potential in the game alongside Tiny and PA.

Rubick cause screw it

Lol Huskar! If you use that, i will use Axe! Blink to you always 1st then Ulti instant kill you! :P

Chaos Knight has a spot in my heart. Semi-reliable stun, gap closer, toughest illusions on the battlefield. He's a good place to start, I'd say.

[gRaveyard]

Try Axe. He also yells "I SAID GOOD DAY, SIR!!!" everytime you hit somebody.

What sort of carry are you looking for? Farming carry or ganking carry?
For farming carry, I'd suggest Naix, Sven, Alch, Lycan, Skeleton King, CK
For ganking carry, I'd suggest Spirit Breaker, DK, Night Stalker (but this hero is not that much of a carry, unless you are successful during your first night), Slardar, Magnus, CK
