very good, helps noobs to decide which hero they could best play

best heroes seem to be beastmaster, dragon knight and earthshaker if I look through your guide

@fliesnlega: u can't decide best heroes just by countin number of positives and negatives. They're many other aspects to be considered such as difficulty to play, hero-team-support, etc...
