Topic is really all there is. Like all three and each are fairly easy to use, so I thought they'd be a good Hero to learn the game with.

Venomancer. Press R in teamfight and you've done your job. Place wards when you're not doing anything else. Enemy's out of position? Slow them. That's it.

Venomancer is amazing.

Skeleton King is about as basic as it gets, although learning to conserve your mana or that stats are better then vamp aura in most cases might be 'harder" he's still freaking just right click things and throw out the occasional stun, heh.

Right clicking is harder than using skills for beginners.

SK is definitely great for learning basic skills on, like last hitting and denying, stun stacking, and carrying. Veno is also awesome for beginners as well.

I also had a fair amount of success with Death Prophet as a beginner. Slardar is good, but he can be difficult to work with for a newer player.

Veno is a nice balance of simple, useful, and fun to play. He's also the single most adorable thing in the game, so there's always that.

Skele is a good starter carry, but you need to know how to farm.

Veno is a great hero to learn as a new player. Lvl 1 first blood can be very easy to get.

I'd also suggest Tide, Lion, Lich, and another carry you might want to try is Juggernaut.

Lich... If you can last hit as Lich, you can last hit as any ranged hero. >_>

Guys, carry heroes who just attacks are NOT noob-friendly heroes. These heroes require a lot of farm for them to be effective, which would be hard if you're just starting out in the game.

Out of the 3 heroes TC gave, It's Venomancer, hands down. I would also suggest Lion as a good starting hero.
