[QUOTE=Shibbey;38195447]Drow's new aura shouldn't affect creeps, imo. It makes defending waaaay too hard unless you fill your team with counter-pushers.[/QUOTE]
maybe if it had a toggle between creeps and heros with a long cd
[QUOTE=Rarara;38197042]Compare it to aoe level-and-forget 5 sec silence whenever someone casts a spell.
EVERYONE can counter the halberd effect pretty fast, and his old one was orchid 5 in that case.
This one is one target, has a cd, and only does 200 damage.[/QUOTE]
300 damage. It's basically a weak dagon/halberd/orchid mix. That's... A little much.
[QUOTE=Tokagero;38196387]Old news. I've been doing VG/Phase/medallion or bottle / dps items since I've realised battlefury makes you a sissy gondar.[/QUOTE]
noooo why the fuck would you do this
vanguard is a scrub trap item. you should be dropping your cash on urn and medallion, which solves your mana problems, gives you even more burst damage and a way to heal up after every gank, while also casting 500 gold less.

I've never seen a vg first gondar and I'm glad.

I've seen a vlads first BH and I'd prefer vanguard.

Again, compare it to aoe 4 or 5 second disable, completely ruining heroes like Tiny, Pudge, Lion, Shadow Shaman, etc.
He gets a more powerful lane spell that basically does the same as his aoe, but applies some damage.
Theres no way you can possibly get disarmed unless he uses ulti, and you'd be screwed by then anyways.
Even an AM that blinked into battle, then get targeted by last word, would be able to finish blink cd before it triggered.

[QUOTE=devon_wargod;38198428]armlet on sniper

he said it helped him survive or some shit
yea it helped him survive
then i just chased him
I saw Armlet on PA once on the opposite team.
Their team was crying.
I liked clock before but holy shit he's awesome now. Also in the game just now I was trying to gank top. Aimed my hook at windrunner, ended up hooking a beastmaster waiting to gank our top in fog, we both panicked
Lina's personality makes her seem like she should be part of the Dire.
Centaur seems really evil too, he should be Dire IMO
chen should be dire too
i mean look at him
obv doing drivebys and in the gang life
And Meepo and Magnus are Dire, so that's odd, too.
[QUOTE=Mercenary-;38199196]And Meepo and Magnus are Dire, so that's odd, too.[/QUOTE]
yea...
never understood magnus being dire
[QUOTE=Suttles;38199215]yea...

Think of it like the D&D scale of Good and Evil. Lina and Magnus are both chaotic. However, Lina is Chaotic Good, and Magnus is Chaotic Evil. Meepo is a mix between Chaotic Neutral and Chaotic Evil.
Honestly, the idea of there being two definite "teams" is silly. Nearly everyone is fighting for their own cause, good or evil. There's little reason for there to be a specific Radiant and a specific Dire, unless Valve is going to do something lore-related.
Also, Dota crashes Steam for me as well. Is there a solution yet?
Is it alright to play silencer as a support? I know his glaive gives him carry potential but I want to focus on last word/curse
[QUOTE=Mercenary-;38199196]And Meepo and Magnus are Dire, so that's odd, too.[/QUOTE]
Meepo is Dire because in Dota 1 he was an earth spirit that buried people alive but now they changed him to just a good old treasure hunter
I'm on a 1280x1024 screen yet there seem to be spells that have a range greater (or equal, still not very useful) than my horizontal screen distance, really annoying...

Magnus isn't Chaotic Evil. Very few people are Chaotic Evil. If you're Chaotic Evil you have no problem killing people in the middle of the street. Most evil characters can be called Lawful or Neutral Evil.

Magnus wants to kill those who made his mountain erupt, and seems to have no problem killing those in the way of his goal. That's why I'd classify him as chaotic evil.
[QUOTE=FKop_Dragon;38199298]Is it alright to play silencer as a support? I know his glaive gives him carry potential but I want to focus on last word/curse[/QUOTE]
best way to play him is as a utility tbh
support works, but you are not gaining his true pontential

He's probably more Chaotic Neutral then. The Joker from Batman is Chaotic Evil. Magnus isn't.
This new win loss thing that was added in the last patch seems to be broken. It says all my won games are losses and all lost games are wins:

Steam servers are so clogged from the TF2 update I can't even login to play dota :(
it's official - drow is the new lycan
take a choice of either counter pushing 3 lanes simultaeneously with your team ungrouped (risking all of you being easily gankable) as enemy siege and ranged creeps hit for 90+ damage
[B]OR[/B]
put everyone in one single lane barely keeping it's momentum as the other two lanes get obliterated by dd creeps and the enemy team forces you into teamfights every 45 seconds
[QUOTE=Glent;38196745]Does drows aura affect plague wards?[/QUOTE]
No, it doesn't affect wards.
It does effect Visage Familiars however.
Holy shit Rubick plus KotL lane is absolute rape. (Also my first game of Captain's mode.)
I don't like the nerf to Rubick's Fade Bolt, nothing was wrong with it and he needs that extra damage in order to survive against other nukers.
Going to try Silencer's new Last Word and Centuar.
I dislike the movespeed nerf more than the damage nerf, his damage can be compensated by stolen spells, but there isn't very many spells that help his mobility that can easily be stolen.
So my team just learned that playing 4 melee against 4 ranged (one of which was drow) is a horrible idea. That was a complete faceroll. :c
I think the only thing they should nerf with drow is make her passive not affect ranged creeps. I think that'd bring her from OP to viable.
