Does anyone know the International 2 game where Axe was picked?

[QUOTE=leonthefox;37583213]Copypasting this because I'm lazy Can someone confirm me this?[/QUOTE] this is correct as far as i know damage amps such as soul catcher and flesh golem are applied after all other resistances are taken into account, such as armor, magic resistance, ghost scepter, etcetc, but are indepentant of each other. i.e if the target takes 100 magic damage after reductions, then they will take an extra 50 (100*50%) from eradar's soul catcher and an up to an extra 35(100*35%) damage from dirge's flesh golem chen's penitence works similarly but actually does the extra damage as physical rather than pure damage like the previous two mentions. Orchid does not work like those three abilities because it is based on the amount of health differential between when the debuff was applied and when the debuff finishes, and deals magic damage. i should note mask of madness is different to all 4 above, it amps the damage before reductions.

Just played a game where our nyx had a dagon 5.

i applied to it's gosu as a proofreader. [editline]8th September 2012[/editline] [url]http://www.itsgosu.com/game/dota2/articles/it-s-gosu-is-hiring_688[/url]

Good luck!

[QUOTE=leonthefox;37585324]Thanks, and does the damage amp from catcher/flesh golem also applies to magic damage? because I'm thinking on adding veil of discord too[/QUOTE] yes, as the extra damage is calculated after resistances e.g if a 300 damage nuke does 450 after resistances then soul catcher/flesh golem will work off the 450 not the 300

That was my favorite besides Doom Bringer/Lucifer.

[QUOTE=Eonart;37585860]How good is the Chieftain? He seems extremely strong if positioned correctly.[/QUOTE] He was a badass when he was first released. Not sure now.

he's still a very strong hero he's just not as good of a laner anymore.

From when he first came out. [t]http://i.imgur.com/sVde4.png[/t] He used to destroy. Totally forgot about him even existing so I'm kinda hyped to get another initiator.

anyone remember that dota 2 callout bot thing because Dota2 Callout Bot ‏@Dota2CalloutBot 10% name, 90% shame. 0 kills and 66 deaths for Corneta- on Luna (31000931) what the FUCK

I think I just got carried by YaphetS (or someone pretending to be YaphetS). That was a fun game.

if you were playing on us or eu servers that was 100% a fake.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;37586706]if you were playing on us or eu servers that was 100% a fake.[/QUOTE]Nah, SEA.

gonna play at an online tournament, hope we at least get past 2nd round :v

I just played a match as Beastmaster. Someone else picked Void and the other randomed BS. Void asks for supports, ranged if possible. The other two pick Siren and Chaos Knight. The enemy had picked Rubick, Ogre, Enchantress, AA and Alchemist. No one wants to buy a courier then suddenly Siren gets one, almost making me waste gold for one, and everyone goes to the side lanes without saying a word, so I'm forced to mid against an Enchantress. No one called mia, no one helped no one, everyone took runes even if they didn't need them.. We won. They were even more awful that us, I'm not sure how it could be.

Everyone has those games where they have a team of 5 hard carries and somehow still win.

that's because the enemy team had no pushing power or late game carry other than alchemist and even then he doesn't really stand a chance against late game void, siren, and ck.

Single draft is the most fun in my opinion. It forces you to play random heroes while still being able to choose the best for the team, and prevents people from picking the easiest counters to your hero.

I signed up for DOTA 2 a while back (2 or 3 weeks) and I've downloaded the spectator version. Do I get an e-mail or Steam notification or something?

Both

I was checking out this dotabuff-website, and 5 months ago me being pretty much a noob, I had a victory as Slardar where I built: [b]Buckler[/b], Power Treads, [b]Soul Booster[/b], Blademail and a half-finished BKB :v:

[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;37584736]Same thing with Enigma. So satisfying.[/QUOTE] Everything going normally, killing roshan, until... ENIGMA BLINKS IN, MIDNIGHT PULSE, BLAAAAACK HOOOOLEEEE, EVERYONE DIES, REST OF THE TEAM ARRIVES LATER, FINISHES THEM OFF, ROSHAN IS DEAD, AEGIS GETS STOLEN! /tobi [editline]8th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=lord0war;37585230]Just played a game where our nyx had a dagon 5.[/QUOTE] Can anyone at all do well with Nyx against people who have the least bit of knowledge? I mean, I think I've never ever seen a Nyx with a positive score unless he gets his kills on a tray.

[QUOTE=Murdoco;37580386]It looked partially plastic when I saw it up close when I was there.
