A bit extra - I'm only as almost-okay-ish as I am because I only ever play with friends, with a few exceptions. They throw me advice and tell me where I'm going wrong, plus having Dota set to borderless windowed means alttab guides are as good friends as they are. I'm trying out as many heroes as I can, but I always seem to roll on back to Rubick. He's just too fun, although Drow's got some amazing DPS when farmed nicely.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;38058994]Does Slark's ultimate seriously give him a passive 7% HP regen?[/QUOTE]
Isn't that only when he's cloaked though? Which lasts like, 5-10 seconds? (Forget how long.)
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;38058994]Does Slark's ultimate seriously give him a passive 7% HP regen?[/QUOTE]
It's passive during ultimate. His ultimate is basically steroid-passive with duration and cooldown.
Invis that doesn't break on items/spells/attacks, ms and healthregen, all of which are lost if he is visible (which I believe is only smart to do with Sentry Ward/Gem/Necro, because Slark can remove any debuff with Dark Pact)
[QUOTE=Bordellimies;38058801]I had to read that a few times and I still ain't exactly sure what you said, but you can have only 1 item which gives spell resistance. So if you have cloak, hood and pipe, you only receive +30% magic resist.
See this page for more info: [URL]http://www.dota2wiki.com/wiki/Magic_Resistance[/URL][/QUOTE]
Well, what I meant was if you have the Anti-mage situation, where you have armor and spell resistance. How does that stack? Does it calculate damage to spell resistance first (50% less damage) and then add the armor defense to it? Or does armor not work on spells?

Armor does not affect magic damage. Armor does however, reduce composite damage.

Armor only lowers damage from physical type attacks, like auto attacks or beastmaster's axe throw.
EDIT:
Oh actually that's composite (meaning both magic resistance and armor reduce it) as the above poster stated. I guess a better example for physical damage type spells would be any of dazzle's poison touch and shadow wave, or juggernaut's ult.
composite is the only damage that is affected by both magical resistance and physical resistance (armor)
most spells do magical damage which isn't touched by armor.
there are spells in the game that do physical damage, but they are few and far between.

wild axes does composite not physical
Yeah sorry, just fixed it after quickly looking it up!
Any tips on outlaning a duolane with Kotl as Mirana ? Manaleak and Illuminate make for nightmares on squishy heroes.
I thought that possible mid/roam gank on kotl, as 1 disable wil allow easy arrow with death following as he is squishy as well, but is there any way to do so without assistance ?
[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;38059030]Isn't that only when he's cloaked though? Which lasts like, 5-10 seconds? (Forget how long.)[/QUOTE]
Only 5.5 seconds.
[QUOTE=dass;38059975]Only 5.5 seconds.[/QUOTE]
Can someone tell me Slarks abilitys and playstyle, I've never tried him, and turns out my War3 is corrupted and doesn't load anymore.
Seems like some sort of a nuker-escaper-carry to me, not sure. Never played WC3 Dota.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;38060378]Everywhere I look it's worded in a way that makes it seem like you get the benefits all the time when an enemy doesn't see you, not just when the invis is active.[/QUOTE]
that would be op as fuck though, triple (and a half) heart of tarrasque passive if you're in the jungle
never go back
ever

where the fuck have you been looking?
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Ae5fY.png[/IMG]
this clearly says it is an active ability that lasts for 5.5 seconds, perhaps this means it's an incredibly fucking broken passive?? HMMMM
He seems like a hero that once it attacks someone, it starts to snowball on its prey until it dies.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;38060699]"Shadow Dance passively grants +30%/+35%/+40% movement speed and +3%/+5%/+7% HP regeneration when Murloc Nightcrawler is not visible to the enemy (has a 0.5 second delay on activation and deactivation)."
[url]http://www.playdota.com/heroes/murloc-nightcrawler[/url]
And multiple guides reference his ability to just walk around and when his movement and regen buffs stop, he can be sure that there is an enemy ward around.[/QUOTE]
I guess they might reference it like that because it has low CD and not so high manacost, so you might just use it for regen if you want to.
I doubt any passive is as strong as to just give 3x heart regen.
Haven't encountered a feeder in forever but now that I have, I wish I didn't.
Slarks ultimate is both the Windwalk and the passive. As long as he's not seen the regen and ms is applied.
[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;38058005]What does this have to do with his post?[/QUOTE]
Basically, Bounty Hunter needs a little bit of farm in order to be really useful. Otherwise he'll get bursted down by anyone.
Something is going on with Mouz, theres rumors going around that they lost their sponsor
[QUOTE=MendozaMan;38062237]Something is going on with Mouz, theres rumors going around that they lost their sponsor[/QUOTE]
it's been known that mouz was going to disband after starladder, so the sponsors just said, "hey we're not gonna pay your flight to kiev for starladder if you're just gonna disband after it anyways."
also just so you know gd studio is paying for their flight now.
What I got from reading about Slark was that he basically could ult, and his position was known from the cloud but nobody could touch him while he attacked and cast spells.
Do strange bracers of the burning cabal not exist? Can only find the purple ones in strange for invoker
at least ThrowWithMe isn't on Mouz anymore
[QUOTE=Left4Meds;38062876]at least ThrowWithMe isn't on Mouz anymore[/QUOTE]
neither is any other players.
Slark's ult in a nutshell, I know this shit cause I have read too many guides and watched too many dota releated videos.
Enemy isn't seeing you = you get insane movespeed and regen, includes the invisibility from Lothar's and ult's active.
Enemy sees you, you move normal speed and no extra regen.
It's a passive spell with active effect, which makes you invisible, but theres a cloud of shit on your location all the time for the duration, they can "see" where you are but they can't do shit about it otherwise.
His insane numbers on ultimate aren't that great after all, his str gain is 1.8 so he's very squishy unless he itemizes for it, so he doesn't get alot out of the ultimate's regen apart from the being full HP after each gank, he can still be burst down quite easily.
The regen part of the ult is there to compensate his dark pact health cost too, he nukes himself for around 20% of his own hp each time he casts it.

Nothing feels better than being proven wrong when thinking "this shit seems too crazy for Dota".
So, I appear to be in a losing streak...
Hmm...

No more dota for a few days. It's not like I really care about the winrate but... I don't really want it to dip down.
I go sven, everyone steals kills from me, we get outcarried easily.
I go huskar, and do terribad with him (as always) and this really was my fault.
Jakiro, trying to support, morphling is crap and their team pushes like fuck, cant even keep them in my macropyre and even if I could, they kill us before we kill them.
I choose axe, don't really know why... Start off pretty well, necrolyte mid is an asshole who never calls missing, razor ganks top and bot like 3 or 4 times, aswell as 5 man ganks that no one gives a warning about. Omni and necro start a fight and complain with each other through the rest of the game, void couldn't farm anything other than mom and bfury. Me and SK were the only ones to actually get kills, me getting extremely lucky kills and even a courier kill, although I missed a cull on doomburger...
Play as riki, get countered like fuck with dust and track, only one to take out people at full health, brood is meh, disruptor is the WHINIEST little kid trying to act pro I've ever seen, lancer carries our shit and we lose.
Try to stop the losing streak with a game of undying... People feed sven, he murders everyone, gg.
I don't even...
