Slash is an amazing mentor! I took his advice and climbed over 1,000 MMR in under 3 months. Super helpful and I couldn't recommend more.

Gives you another perspective on how to play. He breaks down and gives you a detailed framework on how you can further improve so you can keep track!

Overall, I had a very positive experience with SlashStrike. He doesn't just tell you what to do, he challenges you to understand how to make the correct plays.

Slash is an awesome coach! Very personable, and able to adapt his teaching style to your exact needs. Every session was fun, and very informative!

I highly recommend Stoyan (SlashStrike) as a coach. I have gotten coaching from a variety of coaches across a number of positions, and he stands out as having given me a more comprehensive and detailed framework on how to think about various aspects of the game, from itemization to midgame decision-making. Particularly on the latter, I feel other coaches have given me very little guidance on that topic, whereas he conveys more clearly what to do and why. I will personally be doing more sessions with him because I know he can continue to go into further depth on the areas about which I am confused.

Super good coach, not only good explaining but also he kinda makes you think too and correct you, will definitely come again for the session

Great session! I really appreciate how you encourage critical thinking instead of just telling me what to do. Your approach is helping me understand the game more deeply and think strategically, making the learning process both effective and rewarding.

If You've Never Had Coaching Before

If you haven't had any lessons with me yet, or any dota coaching in general, this is a great place to start! Buying this, you'll get the following: 1. I'll first set up your personalized google doc together with you, where I will explain some of the fundamental principles of the game and write down a plan for your improvement 2. I go through one of your replays while sharing screen with you on discord, getting to know your playstyle and figuring out your strengths and weaknesses as a player 3. After we've established what we should start working on, I will coach you live while watching you play 1 game (through dotaplus / screenshare) From there, I'll leave you with homework in your google doc and a plan of action for your next games and our future lessons

If You've Never Had Coaching Before

Live Coaching

I will watch you play a game live (either in-game spectating with Dota Plus, or through Discord screenshare), and give you the optimal gameplan as soon as we see the picks, and throughout the game. We will focus on item builds, skill builds, timings and movement. Where exactly on the map should you be now, in 15 seconds, in 1 minute, etc. After the game, I might mention mechanical mistakes and things that went right/wrong leading to the win or loss.

Can I join your Discord server?

Of course! - slashstrike.com OR https://discord.com/invite/FKecEPG

My MMR is only X, can / should I still get coaching?

It doesn't matter what MMR you're at right now, as long as you're willing to improve. I've coached people at 50 MMR, people at 9000 MMR, and everything in between; I have treated all of them with the same level of respect and seriousness.

Where can I find your infographics?

Here: https://slashstrikedota.wordpress.com/ Or in my discord server, in the dedicated channel

I'm from X region, can I still get coaching?

I coach people from every region! It doesn't matter as long as you're willing to be flexible with hours so we can find a time that's convenient for both of us.

What time zone are you in?

UTC+3, I'm based in Sofia
