Greetings, guys!

I just want to hear your thoughts about my submitted gameplay guide, How to Become Smart and Skilled, because of its 3 big magjor topics brought together in one:

1. How to Become a Skilled Player
2. How to Become a Great DotA Team Captain
3. How to Balance DotA Games in Our Lives.

So now I'm thinking if making comprehensive guides for each of the topic above is a better idea than putting them all together?

Considering you can switch between chapters anytime I guess there's no need to make separate guides for each topic.

It's a really long and in-depth guide, the number of views and votes prove that it's good :).

You have a point. However, I'm experiencing hustles on editing the guide for improvement because of its being long. xD

Hmm, this is a really long guide. Have you thought of submitting it, bit by bit, as blog posts? If people are interested in your weekly blog posts, they may check your guide. If not, at least you're exposing your guide continuously to the public.

Aesthetically, there's a lot of text and not much space for one to rest their eyes. You can cater for visual learners by adding colour. For audiovisual learners, you could add in some videos to support your points. Alternatively, a picture speaks a thousand words. With a quick glance over your work, I can see that many of your points could be turned into an infographic, perhaps like a flow-chart.

You can centre you images by using the centre coding :)

Good luck with your guide.

The guides are now finished. Thanks for the suggestions, guys!

I have divided the guide into 4 parts and made a comprehensive guide to each of them. Here are the 3:

How to have a Pro-like Mindset
How to be a Great DotA Captain
How to Live a Balanced DotA-Life

I might work for the 4th part.

Pls let me know if what have i've done is a good or bad idea. :/
