Over the years, professional players have broken down DOTA 2 into a self-governing role/position system designed for efficiently maintaining resource management and team dynamics, making DOTA extremely hard to play at a high level without prior knowledge. As DOTA 2 players, we all have gone through the same struggles of learning the game mechanics, roles, meta, and individual champions. However, @Henry (Henry Carney) is here to help.


Henry “RAWDOTA/@henry” Carney is a highly ranked North American semi-professional DOTA 2 coach to over 300+ students, a youtube content creator, and popular twitch streamer who has huge insight into the game’s psychology and systems of play. Henry’s specialty is raising the MMR of his students, their understanding of game, and utility of team dynamics while reinforcing the need to stay a humble student of the game. As a player and coach, Henry will take you on a journey for knowledge and give you a new perspective of DOTA 2 that will help you achieve your MMR goals and understand your role and positions in the game.


Please enjoy Henry’s course and know that you too can LVLUP your game!

Thanks for the course! It's well structured and has the majority of the aspects of the game. This course was perceived by me as an introductory course for beginners, rather than for pro players. I didn't learn much. Also, in my opinion, there's a lack of material on counter-picking and tactics in various game situations.

This is a quick, useful guide with quality content. My only criticism is that as a 3k player I was hoping this would be somewhat more useful. A lot of the advice is fairly general, and very much a case of giving you some tools to then go into the game and learn yourself. In and of itself I think that's a good approach, but I was hoping for some fairly advanced content. Additionally, unless you've never played Dota, the first 30 or so minutes (maybe more) is going to be fairly useless to you.

A fantastic primer to Dota 2. This course gave me a comprehensive idea on each phase and role within the game, and gave me exercises to get familiar with these principles and concepts. I would strongly suggest this course to anybody wanting to start Dota, or further their understanding as a beginner or intermediate player. I would love to see the guide later updated with specific drills to practice to improve mechanical skill or exercises to improve as players, and perhaps a series of videos on the key, specific things players in each of the medal brackets should focus on to get to the next medal bracket.

The information is really well phrased and in depth and is really entertaining. As a beginner in Dota I feel like I’m learning a ton of things I’ve had a hard tine with like basics but also Henry is giving me a good way to look at the game. Looking forward to more Henry courses!
