Deconstructing the skill:
# Mechanics - Hero control, last hitting, spell usage and denying
# Knowledge - Understand the heroes, the items and how they synergize
# Team Fighting - How to play with others and be effective in a five man team, understanding the different roles the game has
# Map Control - Knowing and using the map to control the game
# Speed and Experience - These two come with sheer practice and can't be learned any other way than by just playing.
