Lane
Mid is best choice if you can reading your enemy movements and know how to play Fog. If you can't, you can go anywhere as you like.
Early game's Strategy
Mid Lane Strategy
In early game, go wild on mid lane!!Focus to farming and if there are an opportunity to Hook, just hook them ! XD. Remember to buy Empty Bottle if you are in mid lane. It will help you out to go wild !
Another Lane Strategy
Your armour is low. And your body is so sexy, so play save is the best choice. If you have an opportunity, just go to another lane for ganking.
Mid game's Strategy
When in mid game, you will do "ganking" easily. Just Hook your enemy then Bite them! XD. If you are pros, you can buy force staff to ease you. when your enemy running away from you, just use force staff and hook straight. It usually will hit.
War game's Strategy and Ganking's Strategy
When you do Meat Hook, Read your enemy movement. actually, it is easy. Just think what you will do if you become them. Then hook at the place that you will moved arround. It is same as Mirana-PoTM.
If you like, you can use shift Queueing trick. So right after you hook, you will also do "Dismember"
Late game's Strategy
It will be hard for you in the late game. Actually, in DotA, teamwork are everything. In Late game, teamwork will determine who will win. It is because, when someone do "blunder" in late game(Especially in the 60th minute ++) It mean the lose for the same team.
