The best heroes for the most important lane!
5. ZEUS: The popularity of the thunder god spiked in patch 7.27d. Zeus has always been an absolute beast when it comes to overall hero damage.

4. STORM SPIRIT: With agility carries being the trend in the current meta, Storm truly shines. The hero can do solid bursts of magic damage with Orchid Malevolence and his solo kill potential is unmatched. (Image Credit: Valve Corporation)
3. SHADOW FIEND: It wouldn't be a Dota 2 patch if Shadow Fiend wasn't viable in the mid lane. The hero is as good as ever and you can win the lane by simply purchasing a couple of Mangos. Whether you go for physical or magic damage is up to you. (Image Credit: Valve Corporation)
2. VOID SPIRIT: One of the latest heroes to get added to Dota 2 but also one of the most successful ones. Void Spirit is hard to lock down and offers a great deal of crowd control, area of effect damage, and burst. (Image Credit: Valve Corporation)
1. DOOM: The undisputed meta pick for the mid lane is Doom. The hero simply can't die due to the regen provided by Devour, which also showers him in gold. Add to that his ultimate which takes an enemy out of the fight and it's clear why he's popular. (Image Credit: Valve Corporation)
