bros. I wanna learn Dota 2. I was a Leaguefag for 10+ years, so I understand the underlying mechanics and overall point of a MOBA game.

However, I have a few questions - Your help answering them will help point me in the right direction:

1. Which lane/role is the least desired? I will learn that lane/role, to prevent having to fight over the 'glory' roles, like mid (is this a thing in Dota??)

2. Which characters are easy to pick up, but not faggot-tier and braindead easy? If you played League, I'm trying to avoid characters like Garen.

3. Will playing Turbo build bad habits when starting out?

4. I've played Dota 2 a couple times before, and I always just played Vengeful Spirit, because she felt similar to a League character. Is she trash?
