If you want the best HOTS builds, readable hero plans, and strategy articles that actually help in ranked, this site is built for that exact job. Guide HoTs focuses on practical decision making, clean structure, and the kind of match insight that makes your next game easier to play.

Everything here is written from a player-first angle by Nicolas, with an emphasis on what wins real games: draft logic, punish windows, role clarity, better build explanations, and less filler.

Best Builds to Start With

If you want a fast entry point, start with the guides that already do a great job of explaining both the build and the real match plan behind it.

Strategy and Meta Articles

The site is no longer just a list of hero pages. These editorial guides cover the bigger questions players actually search for when they want to climb or understand the game better.

Why this site exists

Guide HoTs is built around a simple promise: explain the hero, the build, or the draft decision in a way that feels genuinely useful in real matches. That means less lore padding, less filler, and more attention to timing, pressure, and the reasons a plan works.

If you want to know who is behind the site and how the guides are approached, the About page lays that out clearly.
