Hi,
Iv just started to play with my 4 friends, were playing both CM and RD but we're looing alot to hard ganking styles. This meaning; 1 hardcarry farming the whole game and the other 4 roaming and ganking us. Iv been searching alot of forum for answers to different playstyles but havent found alot. Can anyone helt me out here?

| Invest in early game. 5>4. Also you should consider, 4 people ganking 1 person doesnt actually achieve that much since you can force other objectives. Buildings win games not kills. |

Safe play and a reliable hard carry in the lategame. Always respond to dives with TPs with the early game so you can at least trade evenly. Invest in wards and be communicative.
Having rune control will help immensely. |

| This isn't even really a distinct style.. it's just playing organized Dota. Any general teamplay guides will help (although I suggest just learning from the top teams and seeing what they do.) |

| There are about 100 options you can do to counter 'ganking style' but funnily the easiest one is actually do solid line up and win lanes. Game sense and map awareness are also needed and they can only be gained from playing (alot of ) games. |

pretty much this
if 2-5 players are missing on the map for >10 secs you should play more cautiously and have second thoughts about going past river or diving towers and shit |

No, you should tunnelvision on your farm, then flame your team when you die. Dota is all about not being responsible unless you win! |

Hard turtle beats ganking, have wards protecting your carry and make sure you know who has smoke on the other team, if the carry gets ganked, tp to him and save him.
Alternately pick antimage and you cant die mwahaha. |

| Probably the best and most secure way is to make sure you win your lanes, and then just 5-man push down mid. They can't gank you if you stick together, and their hard carry won't have enough farm yet to contribute. |

there's a general discussion and a simple question thread.
