## What is Build Generator for Dota 2?

Have you ever not known what items to buy when in a match of Dota 2? Well look no further! 

Dota 2 Random Build Generator offers three modes of random build generation:
1) Random Professional Build --- This mode, thanks to the OpenDota API, randomly selects a recent pro match, then randomly chooses a player from the winning team and shows their build. This option is best if you actually want to win.
2) Completely Random --- Completely random builds will randomly pick any hero and pair them up with any items.
3) Position choice --- With this option, you can choose what role you would like to play and you will get a random hero and item build that more closely fits the role. 

Each random build will have 6 items, including one set of boots. An Aghanim's Shard has a 50% chance of also being included in the build as a 7th item, as it does not take up an inventory slot.

Intended uses of this app:
1) Brainstorming item builds --- You may find a build that works, or needs a few tweaks to really be good. This app can help you see possible combinations you may not have thought of. 
2) Messing around with friends --- These builds will probably be terrible. So to save yourself from being flamed in a ranked match, hop on with some friends and try to win with a completely random build!

### 5/5 — BRO GIVE US MORE!

*2021-08-19, version 1.2.2*

MAKE AN OFFICIAL DISCORD SERVER!

### 5/5 — Pleasantly surprised…

*2021-07-11, version 1.1.0*

Now listen here…..

When I downloaded this app I was like “how good can an app really be?” To my surprise, better than my wildest dreams. I’m a big dota 2 fanatic myself and when I was searching for apps to improve and help with my gameplay, I found this absolute Godsend of an app. Being so good and one of the top players in Dota, I ended up switching to a better game called smite. The completion in dota just wasn’t good enough. I would win every match with the same build EVERY SINGLE TIME. 

But then God sent an angel of a developer. I don’t know who you are, but this is what I’ve been waiting for. Dota with the same build over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over just isn’t fun. This app makes me want to play the game every waking second! I’ve quit both my part time jobs now just so I can use this app at all hours of being awake. 

I still believe smite will always remain the better game, but I can now enjoy the nostalgia of one of the classics. This app makes every game unique! Need a position 4? NAH! My app says go Meepo so shall I go Meepo! (I’ve been known as one of the better Meepo players when I was just starting to play) My team cries out for a mid lane, maybe razor or alchemist, BUT NEY! The app calls me to a support build dragon knight (my voidstone build back in the day would win every match) 

It only lives to lighten my day and give me endless playability. 5 stars for this app and 5 stars to any teammates out there using this. And if you run into “cool_it_dude775” just know…..there will be mystery and chaos as I destroy your team in a random build fashion….

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2021-07-07, version 1.0.1*

This app is AWESOME! Ten stars!!
