Tiny: If you handle to get him early on in the game, that's ideal. Get him to 2 stars ASAP and even pursue 3 stars, as this is certainly a hero for the long term.
Fugitive hunter: The finest unit in the Tier 1 based upon Damage dealt per second. Good health and excellent ability make him a great T1 unit.
Axe: An incredibly strong, exceptionally beneficial tank, particularly early on in the game. You require to keep upgrading him in order to stay beneficial in mid to late game, however he's actually helpful for absorbing lots of damage.
Bloodseeker: An actually strong unit that might do a lots of damage, however tough to play as he tends to pass away rapidly in many circumstances. If he remains alive for long enough, he might be a game changer thanks to his continuously increasing attack speed.
Drow Ranger: Although her passive ability is exceptionally excellent, increasing the attack speed of close-by allies, she's hard to put or play to excellent use in the game, primarily since of her extrmeely low health.
Anti-Mage: Generally ignored and neglected, he's really a great unit. Easy and weak to lose, his passive ability is definitely fantastic, as it damages a challenger's mana.
Troll Magi: If I do not have Tiny or Axe to select in the very first number of rounds, I constantly choose Ogre Magi. Great support/tank unit that can end up being truly helpful.
Tusk: Good health and a good ability make Tusk a good option for a beginning hero and even long term hero if there are no much better choices readily available.
Shadow Shaman: His ability is definitely ridiculous, however regrettably he's basically worthless otherwise (or on his own) due to the fact that of the low damage he deals. Might be beneficial with the right mix of colleagues.
Batrider: His active ability is respectable in general, decreasing enemies and enhancing his damage, however he's usually challenging and quite weak to really live enough time to benefit from the stated increases.
Tinker: A good long-ranged unit, however with absolutely nothing incredible about him. If there are much better alternatives, I'd usually prevent him.
Clockwerk: A tank with a slow-charging ability, dealing good damage. Absolutely nothing special here.
Warlock: He's one of the most affordable DPS dealerships in the game and a quite bad assistance unit. The randomness of his ability (he might recover an ally or offer damage) make him even less helpful, while his big cooldown make it practically difficult for him to make an effect in the battles.
Enchantress: The worst T1 character in my viewpoint. Weak, long cooldown for her ability-- a therapist that does not actually get to do excessive recovery.
Best Tier 2 Units
Treant Protector: Difficult to rank the very first 3 soldiers, as they are all actually great in my viewpoint. I put Treant Protector initially due to the fact that of its remarkable Active ability, among the most beneficial in my viewpoint.
Nature's Prophet: I think about all the summoning units in the game typically OP. And the Treant summoned by Nature's prophet is truly helpful-- and if you handle to keep the hero alive enough time to summon a 2nd one (or perhaps more), it's even much better!
Witch Doctor: He has a fantastic active ability, despite the fact that I do not truly like the cooldown time. Once it triggers, it can truly alter the course of the battle.
Juggernaut: Another great hero in regards to pure DPS dealing. One that I constantly enter my team, regardless of him ranking suprisingly short on my list.
Crystal Mayden: A hero that gives mana to ALL friendly units is absolutely not one to ignore. She's a varied unit, so put properly on the field, she can live enough time to make a distinction. Very low DPS and health otherwise, so care is needed!
Pudge: A truly fascinating tank with a strong ability that draws far heroes and ruins them. It's a hit or miss out on in some events, however still a great hero.
Beastmaster: Pretty helpful in early game, under the right situations thanks to prospective alliances. Not incredible, though and seldom helpful in late game phases.
Slardar: One of the very best heroes in regards to Damage dealt per 2nd, he's truly proficient at making enemies vanish quicker thanks to his armor decreasing, low cooldown ability.
Mayhem Knight: Despite its random nature, the reality that this unit deals extra damage to an unit and stuns it suffices to necessitate him an area in a formation if no much better alternatives are readily available. He's also quick and deals a lot of damage, so excellent to have around!
Luna: I've seen Luna played well by other players, however I never ever handled to make it deal with her. It may be my fault, however still ... I consider her normally meh.
Timberslaw: While he may be excellent in some early game circumstances, he's not too incredible otherwise and not beneficial in mid to late game. He does deal a lot of damage and has good health, so if you require a damage dealer and have no other choices, he might be the one.
Morphling: While there are numerous great things about this unit, specifically its invulnerability, the truth that it just deals damage in a straight line may be worthless. Low health and normally low DPS make it basically useless.
Queen of Pain: Although she has a strong ability and she's a varied unit that deals good damage, I never ever had the ability to put her to excellent use or make her operate in any team setup.
Puck: This one is practically ineffective-- comparable to Morphling, it's even worse in all locations!
Best Tier 3 Units
Lycan: Since I think about summoners as the most OP units in the game, you should not be shocked to see Lycan ranking. An incredible hero, particularly if you handle to equip him with the right items.
Arc Warden: If you handle to build him up and gear up the right items, he's very great in mid to late game minutes thanks to his increasing capability. Under the right scenarios, you can get a real army of Arc Wardens travelling through your challengers.
Slark: This one is a hit and miss out on, yet i chose to rank him higher than I at first prepared for. The truth that he can end up being a real monster in regards to attack speed makes him an actually strong hero to have in your team.
Phantom Assassin: If you require someone to deal a lots of damage, look no more. I do not actually like the randomness of the assassin's Passive ability ... however I'll still take it!
Razor: A respectable unit with the possible to form some good alliances. His AoE damage is actually great, and any unit that decreases others is my buddy.
Sniper: Although he requires what looks like an eternity in-game to trigger his sniping ability, once he does it, he deals a lots of damage. Substantial range makes it much easier to keep him in an area that's far from assaulters ... however it's also dangerous if someone teleports close by ...
Sand King: An actually excellent hero in general, pestered by its truly low health and high cooldown time for the active ability. He also has an enormous passive to make up for it and with some active alliances and excellent items, he can actually be a monster.
Venmoancer: Nice, quick summoner which ends up being better if the right items are equiped. He can actually flood the battleground with units if left ignored ... however in truth, he hardly ever handles to make a distinction.
Abaddon: A great hero when you initially take a look at him, however for some factor he does not truly handle to make a distinction in battle. He's a great assistance in theory though and may need a bit more screening.
Windranger: A tuned-down version of the Sniper. Truly unworthy taking a look at.
Terrorblade: Not the very best devil to have around in your team, specifically considering that he exchanges health with another ally. Excessive randomness for my taste.
Omniknight: An assistance unit that concentrates on recovery alone-- however heals way insufficient health to make it beneficial getting him into the team.
Shadow Fiend: Although a quite strong unit otherwise, I do not like the truth that Shadow Fiend also harms allies. No, thanks!
Viper: Pretty much worthless, in spite of the reality that it decreases enemies. Not truly sufficient to make an effect in battle.
Lina: A varied unit with very little to provide. Absolutely nothing to see here.

Leveling up units
Things are simple in theory: in order to level up any unit, you will need to have two other units of the same star rating. So in order to level up a unit to two stars, you will need three 1-star card of the same type. In order to get a unit to three stars, you will need three 2-star cards of the same type. In other words, getting any unit to 3 stars requires a whooping 9 cards of the same type. The leveling up process happens automatically, as long as you meet the requirements.
Usually, at two stars, a hero deals double damage and has twice as much health, while at three stars the base stats are 4 times greater. So we can say that yes, you get great benefits from working on starring up your units.
However, the problem is that getting a hero unit to three stars is very difficult and expensive. The higher the tier of the card, the more difficult it will be: for a 4 gold card, for example, you will need a total of 36 gold to get to three stars, plus something close to that amount for refreshing the cards you got in order to actually be able to purchase the said cards.
Based on my own experience, I would say that the easiest cards to upgrade - while still being good in the later rounds - are the Tier 2 and Tier 3 ones (2 and 3 cost heroes).
Tier 4 and above are really difficult to get to more than 2 stars, while Tier 1 cards at 3 stars are obviously weaker than T2 and T3 units at the same star level.
So as a strategy when it comes to leveling up your heroes in Dota Underlords, I would say that you should try and get your main Tier 1 unit to three stars, then 2-3 T2 or T3 heroes to three stars. Get Lycan and Treant Protector to three stars, for example, and you're doing great!

Learn all the combo effects and synergies to utilize the chesses.
Tip 2
Determine your team combos (Ex: Goblin - Assassin, Knight - Troll, Warrior, Mage, etc...). You should change your build depending on the situation (Ex: If you want to go Goblin - Assassin build but 2 or 3 people are building that team/Your rolls are pretty bad and have a lot of unnecessary cheeses - You should change to another combo).

Various Gameplay Tips
Don't be afraid to change Alliances on the fly. Sure you may have started out with a good run of Scrappy units, but if you suddenly get the chance to switch into Assassins, and that seems like it will be better at winning the game then go for it. You're rarely locked into a strategy until the late game starts. And don't stick with an Alliance just because you got an early global item for it, forcing into Demon Hunters and Demons because you got the Strange Bedfellows item early isn't always a great move, if the units just aren't there for you.
Tapping on the right hand side of an entry in the kill feed at the top of the screen will "YO!" that item and send an audible "Yo" to opponents. It serves basically no point, but it's fun to try and get into opponent's heads by yo-ing everything they do.
You get one gold interest at the end of every round for every 10 gold you have when it starts. So if you start the round with 10 gold you'll get an extra gold at the end of it. Start with 20 and you'll get 2 gold, and so on. This is however capped at 5 gold, so holding onto more than 50 gold is rarely worth it. Spend that cash, up your level or try and grab some new heroes and you'll still be making maximum dollar.
And finally, you can switch mid game between mobile and PC. So if you decide to kick things off on the PC version and then nature calls, you can simply grab your iOS or Android device and continue playing while on the toilet. Then you can even come back to the PC version when you are done. The future really is great, isn't it.
