Dam all this talk makes me want to play LoL, but i'll rather play Dota2.
Yodabig asked for some hints?
Each day, try to learn something new or develop a skill.
E.g week 1, just concentrate on last hits only.. don't worry about anything else not even spells... just worry about hits with your chosen hero. Obviously get use to both ranged and melee heroes. Last hits is a fundamental skill.
week 2, learn the terrain, know where all the shops are, know the passage ways to different points, learn how to position your hero, learn how long it takes to get from one place to another without item or speed boost / teleportation.
week 3, learn the hot keys for items and spells. choose one hero or a minute few a get use to that hero. dont worry about anything else but hot keys.
