[QUOTE=Xyrec;37501290]What's a good pub skill build for Invoker? I recently started getting interested in this hero, and wanna play him, but I'm not sure which build is best.[/QUOTE]
Skill build? Generally it's just max any combination of two instances with one point in the other instance so all spells are available and taking Invoke whenever possible. The "best" build is dependent on both teams; exort/wex is straight up carry, exort/quas is still good for carrying but better for teamfight (Meteor>deafening blast all day), and quas/wex is more utility/survivability/teamfight, plus EMP should be draining a good amount of mana so it's good against multiple caster teams.
Also, IG just got Naga Siren and Dark Seer against Na'Vi, and are already up 1 game to 0. [del]It's like Na'Vi dont want to win.[/del] Wow, what a game.
Does anyone have a spare DOTA 2 invite that they can give to a friend of mine?
He would sign up for the Beta if he could but when he tries to take the survey [URL="http://www.dota2.com/survey/experience/"]here[/URL] , it says he's already done it.
This is his steam community profile page: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/makethatmaker/[/url]

Glad I could help
Also, in case anyone was wondering, Na'Vi made me eat shit. I really hope someone else here was watching the 15 min team fight because holy fuck
Anyone have any ideas why my mic is so quiet ingame? People can barely hear me.
So does the Wildkin Tornado do anything other than make me laugh uncontrollably at how stupid he looks?
deals damage over time in an area around the tornado

So I met Gabe a couple hours ago. We talked. He signed my badge. We took a pic together. We shook hands. I can die happy now.
The games today were intense as fuck.

harass the mid morph
Wildkin Tornado is the best spell in the game.
It's almost ultimate level, too bad the neutrals have piss poor mana pools.

Better luck next time![/QUOTE]
Got another one :downs:

I just had a thought.
If you spell steal a Doom as Rubick right after he uses a spell he got from a creep, do you actually get the creep spell? :o

Yes, you do. But any good doom doesn't use any of the creeps spells other than the passives and possibly the heal in the early game. They all simply cost too much mana for him to use efficiently.
So guys I've been thinking about how the lore of Dota 2 mentions 4 fundamentals - Enigma, Wisp, Chaos Knight and Keeper of the Light. I realized each hero bears some kind of resemblance to the 4 fundamentals in Physics that were present sometime after the Big Bang - Gravity, Weak Nuclear Force, Strong Nuclear Force and Electromagnetism (light) - some present before others. After some research I'm fairly sure that the Dota fundamentals are a literal reference to the physics fundamentals.
[B]Electromagnetism[/B] - [I]Ezalor long ago escaped the Fundamental plane, separating from the other ancient forces to which he was bound within the great Primordial harmony[/I] - Keeper of the Light obviously represents light, however this passage in his lore references to how for sometime after the Big Bang all of the fundamentals were one - and for even longer after the forces split EM radiation was unable to escape the forces of gravity, until at one point it scattered in all directions.
[B]Strong Nuclear Force[/B] - [I]Wisp is nothing less than the sum of all attractive and repulsive forces within matter, a sentient manifestation of the charge that bind particles together[/I]/[I]Wisp is a Fundamental of the universe—a force older than time[/I] - Literal reference to Wisp representing strong nuclear force - protons/electrons. Also the idea that it has no real physical being.
[B]Gravity[/B] - [I]Enigma is a mystery for whom the only true biography is description: he is an universal force, a consumer of worlds[/I]/[I]a force of destruction unleashed upon existence itself[/I] - Enigma's abilities (especially ultimate) literally represent gravity, and this passage in the lore re-inforces the idea of gravity/black holes eating worlds.
[B]Weak Nuclear Force[/B] - [I]Chaos Knight, of all the ancient Fundamentals, is the oldest and most tireless[/I]/[I]drawing strength from the disorder of the universe[/I] - Weak nuclear forces were the first to emerge after the Big Bang and this could be referencing that.
See this site for a better explanation on the fundamentals of physics - [url]http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/forces/funfor.html[/url]
Sorry if this was late or already thought of - or if some of the physics was wrong even, alot of it was done from memory of school syllabus. Suggestions and criticism welcome.

Still doesn't help much, as a Tornado cost more mana and has a shorter cooldown than Arcane.
[QUOTE=Maruhai;37505506]Still doesn't help much, as a Tornado cost more mana and has a shorter cooldown than Arcane.[/QUOTE]
Tornado's cooldown is 70 seconds, Arcane's is 45 seconds. Tornado has a 40 seconds duration though, so I assume that's what you meant.
i know this is a page or so back
[QUOTE=Zorus;37499325]Leoric's lifesteal is melee only. How are you a dota 1 player and you don't even know that?[/QUOTE]
i meant as in an alternative to the luna choice
because having extra lifesteal on leoric is always funny
[QUOTE=ReLak;37506083]

its a waste imo
[QUOTE=Prism;37506304]its a waste imo[/QUOTE]
satanic works on leoric simply because you only need to score 1-2 crits in order to fill your life (sk's crit is one of the better ones, only out done by buriza, pa and juggernaut, the crit lords)
it's not an item you should pick up every game but if you have to win a lifesteal battle it works
I got a International Chest that I'm not going to do anything with, it'd be a shame to let it disappear.
Anyone interested?
Once you figure out how to play the game, you feel so fucking satisfied.

I'll take it if you're giving it away...

post the picture
did he hold up three fingers in yours too?
I'll never trust coffee again.
Drank it, then drank it some more, then drank it again and yet I missed Na'Vi vs IG.
God damn time zones, why can't earth be a pancake...
So, I figured out the 3 heroes I want the most, aside from Meepo, are the three last to be added.
FFFFFFFF
when is techies coming out
