Roles
Main Article: Hero Roles
There are a certain number of roles and specialties within the game, but there is a distinct difference between both "Roles" and "Specialties". In order to have a well functioning team throughout a game, it is important for players to know their particular role and their specialties within the heroes they use, as well as the differences between the two.
A role or class is a category that your character will play throughout the game. A total of 109 heroes are currently available at the moment in both original and advance server, and they all fall under one among the 6 classes – Tank 
, Fighter 
, Assassin 
, Mage 
, Marksman 
, and Support 
. Each of these classes have their unique stats and abilities, and some of them are stronger than others, whilst the same is weaken to certain other roles.
Specialties
Main Article: Hero Specialties
Hero Specialty is the expertise of a hero, which they greatly excel in. There are a total of 15 kinds of specialties, namely Regen, Crowd Control, Control, Reap, Charge, Chase, Push, Damage, Mixed Damage, Magic Damage, Burst, Poke, Initiator, Guard, and Support.
- Regen: This specialty allows a hero to self-regenerate HP, while in the battlefield or also, allows them to regenerate the HP of their allies (otherwise stated). These heroes have a higher chance of survivability, especially during teamfights.
- Crowd Control: This specialty allows a hero to control or merely interrupt the enemy heroes on the battlefield with skills that can inflict status change to a hero, such as: slow down, silence, freeze, suppress, stun, knock up, knockback, or immobilize.
- Control: Control is the specialty assigned to heroes that have skillsets that make enemies be controlled for a longer period of time and make them vulnerable to damage.
- Reap: This specialty helps a hero in harassing and preventing opponents from farming or pushing. Most of the heroes that have this specialty are the marksmen and assassins. This specialty helps in finishing off fleeing enemies and obtaining last hits, with comparative ease.
- Charge: This specialty allows a hero to catch an enemy with blink skills like dive, jump, teleport, or dash.
- Chase: Chase is a specialty assigned to heroes that specializes in chasing down fleeing enemies in and out battles. Their skillsets include mobility skills that when used with the right timing and proper positioning, they could instantly close the gap between them and their enemy and kill them.
- Push: This specialty helps in easier killing of minions or jungle creeps and in also in faster turret pushing, with their skills, because they can deal high damage to turrets when compared to heroes without this specialty.
- Damage: This specialty allows a hero to deal a range of low to average damage, within a long period of time. This is good for harassing enemies or reducing the opponents' HP consistently, and bit by bit. This specialty is very superior in the early game laning phase, where everybody still stays cautious in exchanging attacks.
- Mixed Damage: Mixed Damage is the specialty assigned to heroes that have abilities that benefits from both Physical Attack and Magic Power that allows them to deal both Physical and Magic Damage and have more diverse and strategic gameplay on which they can adapt during a match and combo certain emblems or equipment that normally wouldn't be possible.
- Magic Damage: Magic Damage is the specialty assigned to heroes that deal Magic Damage but aren't necessarily considered as Mages due to their playstyles and skillsets. They do not benefit from Physical stats such as Physical PEN or Physical Lifesteal but instead benefit from Magic stats such as Magic PEN or Magical Lifesteal.
- Burst: This specialty allows a hero to deal a range of average to high damage, within a short period of time. This specialty is good in ganking enemies as they can finish them off within a short span and is usually used by mages and assassins. Heroes with this specialty are suitable to fight enemy heroes who have a smaller amount of HP because a hero with this specialty is able to kill off low HP enemies quickly in a short notice.
- Poke: This specialty allows a hero to harass enemies, with long-ranged attacks, dealing decent damage and making them fall back from their lane. It can be used to stop the enemies from attacking, as these heroes can force the opponent to retreat, by using their poke skills.
- Initiator: This specialty allows a hero to start or initiate a teamfight by using a powerful multi-unit skill. This specialty is also known as 'Setter'.
- Guard: Guard is the specialty assigned to heroes that are protectors of their team and usually serve to make sure their team and their carries are safe. They are equipped with skills that make sure that their Carry won't be killed throughout the whole game and provides the vision for the entire team.
- Support: Support is the specialty assigned to Heroes, who possess skills that interacts with other allied heroes and moreover aid them in ways such as teleporting or transporting allies to designated locations across the map and providing damage resistance.
Laning Roles
There are a total of 5 laning roles which are also taken by 5 players and namely, Roam, Jungle, Mid Lane, EXP Lane, and Gold Lane.
or Tanks . Roamers can have strong early-game combat and teamfight capabilities without relying on equipment. It is recommended to buying Roaming Equipment Items and follow a teammate in the early game to get extra gold and experience.
. They have high mobility and have the potential to burst on single targets. In the early game, they can level up quickly by killing creeps and find chances to kill lone enemies by teamwork. It is recommended to buy Jungling Equipment Items and use Spells
Retribution to get bonus from killing creeps.. After reaching a certain level, they can deal considerable AoE damage to clear lanes efficiently. It is recommended to take advantage of turrents to farm steadily in the early game, and be ready to back up and roam in the middle game.
and Tanks . They can both fight, tank and level up quickly by killing Siege Minions that offer extra EXP.
In the early game, they can make a great contribution in scrambling for the first Turtle.
. This is the side lane that is far away from the location where the first Turtle spawns. Gold Laners are reletively weak in the early game, but can accumulate equipment items more quickly by killing the Siege Minions that offer extra gold, which can provide the team with a strong continous damage ability in the late game.
Meta Heroes
Main Article: Meta Heroes
Meta heroes are usually the recently released ones or recently buffed ones, with overpowering skills, or naturally, the ones that most commonly or very rarely banned in Draft Pick-Ranked Game. The meta heroes mostly include most heroes who deserve urgent nerfs and some heroes who were totally nerfed in a row, without a buff, due to their low chances of being banned. They are the ones who shift the hero picks for every game you play, forcing you to try your luck around with multiple heroes, and making the matchup more intense.

- Clint was the very first hero to be reworked.

Cecilion.
- Dyrroth, and Silvanna have their own buff too when they are against each other on the battlefield.

Popol and Kupa, 
Yu Zhong and 
Sun are the only heroes with more than 3 active abilities without transforming.
- The latter has the most number of abilities with 5, surpassing Zhask (with 4).
- However, Lunox's first and second skills are upgraded simultaneously and share cooldown time when one is used; thus they could be technically be counted as two versions of the same skill, similar to her ultimate.
- Before Pharsa's revamped, she had only 3 active abilities.
- Masha and Pharsa's fourth skills have no upgraded skills compare to the Zhask, Popol, and Yu Zhong's last skills.
- In the development of Luo Yi's abilities, she had 4 skills, but in the later patch, she was reworked making it into 3 skills.
- Cecilion too has the fourth skill; However, it can be accessed only in the presence of his lover Carmilla, and is more of an in-game pair buff within Moonlit Waltz.

- Additionally, Johnson and X.Borg were born humans, who were later transformed into humanoid cyborgs. This information can be found in their respective lores.
- A particular case regards Roger, who had a minor rework after Patch 1.2.70. The only change was the cigarette he put in his mouth is removed because of the international laws, regarding cigarettes. Now, he can be seen on his entry animation putting a wolf pin on his coat (it also applies for his Dark Gent skin, but with a rose instead). A similar change for the same reason was made to Yi Sun-Shin's skin "Apocalypse Agent" 's entry animation, where he no longer smokes a cigarette but can be seen drinking vine, from a flask.
