Where to find it in the menuโ€‹

Heroes โ†’ General โ†’ Keys / Combos / Target / Allies / Linken and Lotus

General is the first row of the hero list. Below it is the Kill steal page, then the hero pages (Hero page). The page's settings are split into tabs along the top.

How to enableโ€‹

  1. Menu (Insert) โ†’ Heroes โ†’ General. Turn on the State header toggle of the page: aio is off by default, and the whole hero list is inactive.
  2. Turn on the Humanizer (Settings โ†’ Humanizer). Without it the combo, orbwalk and aio's keys do not work: the General page and every tab of a hero page show "Humanizer disabled" with an Enable button. By default the humanizer is held off by the "Server anti-cheat" part of Safe mode; the Enable button asks for confirmation and turns that part off itself.
  3. Open your hero's page and turn on its header toggle (off by default), see Hero page.
  4. Assign a combo key: on the hero page's Combo tab, or here on the Keys tab if Same keys for all heroes is on. Keys are not set by default.

What it doesโ€‹

Main switch

  • State in the header of the General page turns aio on as a whole: combos, orbwalk, kill steal and the keys of every hero. While it is off, every page of the list is inactive.
  • Only what belongs to the hero you are playing works, and only while its page is on.
  • aio's keys show in the hotkeys panel only while aio and the humanizer are on, and a hero's keys only for the current hero with its page on.

Keys

  • While Same keys for all heroes is off, each hero has its own keys on the Combo and Alternative combo tabs of its page, and the keys of this tab are hidden.
  • On โ€” the Combo key and Alternative combo key of this tab work for every hero, and the keys on hero pages are hidden.
  • The switch left of a key sets its mode: Hold (default; the combo runs while the key is held) or Toggle (a press turns it on, the next one off). At the end of a match, combos toggled on are turned off. More: Hotkeys and logic.

Combos

  • Ask before unlocking a combo's order. The ability row and the item row of every combo have an order lock (see Hero page). When you open the lock, the question "Unlock the order?" appears: an order of your own may make the combo worse. Agree โ€” the tiles can be dragged; Cancel, Esc, a click outside the window or closing the menu โ€” the lock stays shut. Don't show again turns this setting off; you can turn the question back on here.
  • Combo marks on the hero's panel. On the ability and item panel at the bottom of the screen, every ability and item of the combo gets a mark saying whether it is on in the combo:
    • Dot โ€” a dot in the top right corner of the slot: green โ€” on, red โ€” off;
    • Label โ€” ON or OFF in the same corner.
  • Hold the Switch key (Ctrl by default) and click an ability or item on the panel: it is turned off or on in the combo, and nothing is cast. The slot under the cursor is highlighted with a hint showing the key combination above it.
  • The marks follow the combo that is running, otherwise the hero's main combo. They show only while your hero is selected.

Target

  • The combo takes as its target the enemy hero nearest to the cursor within the Search radius around the cursor. An enemy in the fog who is teleporting can be taken too: the distance to the cursor is also measured to where they will land.
  • While the combo runs, the target does not change however far it goes, into the fog included.
  • The target died: with Next target after a kill on, the combo takes the next one nearest to the cursor at once; off โ€” it stays without a target until the key is pressed again.
  • Creeps and buildings are never targets. Illusions, couriers and the Spirit Bear only with Target illusions and Target couriers and bears on.
  • Target line โ€” a line from the hero to the enemy the combo would take (Line color) and, while the combo runs, to its target (Line color in a combo). No line while the hero is dead.

Allies

  • When an ally disconnects or abandons, the game gives the team control of their hero. With Control disconnected allies on, aio takes control of the heroes picked in Allies to control, along with their summons and illusions.
  • An ally's icon appears in the list when they disconnect and is picked right away.
  • The ally's units join your combo and attack your target by the settings of their hero's page (that page does not need to be on).
  • An online ally who shared control is never taken. When the ally reconnects, or the setting is turned off, or the icon is unpicked, their units are released at once.
  • Your death does not end the control: while at least one controlled unit is alive, they keep fighting.

Linken and Lotus

  • Linken's Sphere: a combo step the target's sphere would take (a cast at a unit) waits until the sphere is popped.
    • Items for Break Linken's Sphere with are picked in the catalogue (the "+" button), before buying them; drag them into an order. Nothing is picked by default.
    • Break with the hero's own spells: the hero's spells pop the sphere too, before the items โ€” the cheapest ready one (shortest cooldown, then least mana), the step itself included.
    • Cheapest breaker first: of the ready spells and the picked items, the cheapest pops the sphere, instead of the spells first and then the items in their order.
  • Lotus Orb: with Wait out Lotus Orb on, a cast at a unit that the target's Lotus Orb would reflect waits for its shell to end. Off โ€” it is cast anyway.
  • Kill steal does not use these settings: it never casts into a sphere or a Lotus Orb.

FAQโ€‹

I turned on the hero and set a key โ€” the combo does not work.

  • Check State in the header of Heroes โ†’ General: aio is off by default.
  • Is the Humanizer on? If the page shows "Humanizer disabled", press Enable, or turn off the "Server anti-cheat" part of Safe mode and turn on Settings โ†’ Humanizer. Turning that part off is at your own risk.
  • If Same keys for all heroes is on, the keys of the Keys tab work, not the key on the hero page.
  • There must be an enemy near the cursor, within the Search radius (350 around the cursor).

The hero page has no "Key" row. Same keys for all heroes is on: the heroes' keys are hidden, and the Combo key and Alternative combo key on the Keys tab work instead.

I don't want to answer the order lock question every time. Turn off Ask before unlocking a combo's order on the Combos tab, or press Don't show again in the question itself.

How do I quickly take an ability out of the combo in game? Hold Ctrl (Switch key) and click the ability or item on the hero's panel: the mark changes from green to red (ON to OFF). Combo marks on the hero's panel must be on.

aio does not control a disconnected ally's hero. Turn on Control disconnected allies and check that the ally's icon is picked in Allies to control. The icon appears only after the ally disconnects; an online ally is never taken.
