Tried that the other day worked pretty well. It works quite well with some lineups but it is rarely seen in pubs. Solo gets more EXP Send semicarry to mid to get good exp advantage Easiest access to both runes Able to gank both lanes easily with level and rune advantage Snowball out of control Win game.
There are lot of heroes that work well as a partial dual with Crystal Maiden currently, She can go back, take a jungle creep, return to lane and zone, kill, or control a rune, stand in lane and harass and protect It should force a rotation to mid if the other team is good.
But dual mid with cm can beat most other dual mid lanes. And if they send 3 mid, the side lanes are very easy for your team. The main reason you don't see dual mids is just trends. Pro dota moves slowly and pub dota moves even slower to follow it. Its just a sort of natural extension of what people knew before in 6.
Scaling with levels means that mid heroes want as much experience as possible in the shortest amount of time. This allows them to invest skill points in their abilities faster than heroes in the side lanes.
These abilities tend to be high damage spells that can facilitate early kills and gank attempts. On the other hand, mid heroes that prefer to farm or pressure the mid tower are often equipped with wave-clearing spells. Doing so gives them plenty of gold in a short period of time, and it allows friendly creeps to chip away at the enemy tower. This is in stark contrast to hard carry heroes, which generally scale better with gold than experience. Carries tend to have their power spikes later in the game when they have two or three big, expensive items.
Mid laners on the other hand tend to see their power spikes when they hit certain levels. The tempo controller is the purest form of the mid lane hero. They scale very well with levels, and grow more powerful as they gain access to their abilities.
Tempo controllers are responsible for putting pressure on the enemy team, typically by rotating to the side lanes and securing early pickoffs. They do this by way of their innate mobility and early damage output, which allows them to ambush enemy heroes and burst them down quickly. Queen of Pain is a great example of a tempo controller with a high skill cap. If they catch their opponents off guard enough, tempo controllers can quickly snowball out of control and prevent the game from even going late.
Tempo controllers can also directly assist the side lanes from time to time. But despite this, they should not be expected to carry the team in the late game, as they are often designed to fall off in efficacy in longer matches. Back then, mid heroes fell almost exclusively under this category, as this playstyle was the most effective during that time.
Rather than using their solo experience gain to gank the side lanes, solo farmers leverage their early levels to farm even faster. Heroes under this classification tend to have efficient AoE damage spells, which can clear creep waves and accelerate their farming pace.
These heroes then utilize their aggressive farming styles to become secondary carries. Their scaling is often such that they can play alongside the hard carry to help secure the late game even further—though to a lesser degree. But although they prefer to farm more than gank early on, farming mids can absolutely still take over games before they go late.
Shadow Fiend, for example, can roll over entire teams after farming for a bit, some time before the opposing carry can mount a defense. Other examples of solo farmers include Storm Spirit, Alchemist, and Magnus. Their flash farming capabilities also pressure the opposing mid laner, who will find themselves having to defend the tier one tower from large creep waves.
These cheesy heroes are often built so that they can secure the win with almost no effort if there are no counters on the other team. This is often because of the nature of their kit and how they can snowball obscenely hard if left unchecked.
Heroes like Huskar, Meepo, and Broodmother—whose individual designs necessitate specific picks or strategies to counter them, fall under this category. Meepo is perhaps the ultimate cheese pick. This is of course only possible if the conditions are right, so careful consideration of your draft and that of the opponent is paramount.
Most of the gamers go for an early Blink Dagger to gank in different lanes and secure some kills. In the latest update, Outworld Devourer has received a lot of buffs. Similarly, the talents have also been given so much buff that the pick rate of the hero is going up with every single week passing.
