[QUOTE=Suttles;40907929]Honestly, his silence should be replaced/changed.[/QUOTE]
His silence is a great skill, though. Self-buff, DoT, and if actually used correctly, will easily screw over squishy supports. Honestly, if you're worrying about right-click power on supports, there's a problem to begin with.
There should really be a report section for "Repeatedly Unpauses" already. Theres always the one Russian, BR, or plain jerk who sits and unpauses repeatedly because hes the only one who can't wait.

I file that under ability abuse and explain it in the notes
It's an ability that you're given, and you're abusing it

After a certain amount of time, its reasonable that they want to continue.
Actually going back on the feedback I've gotten about the new player image I've seen Ursa mentioned a few times.
Is he really that suitable?
Had one of the most frustrating matches ever last night. We had an AM who picked up a vlads, and as if that wasn't a terrible enough pick up, riki also got a vlads... and a mask of madness. I then checked riki's dota profile to discover that riki was his 3rd most played hero (drow was first). How on earth do people manage to play so much of a hero and not learn that lifesteal doesn't stack, and MoM is a shitty item on riki anyway...
And the worst thing? We completely stomped.

don't think I've ever wanted to lose so badly.

Ursa is easy to play, and he is strong all the way from early game to late game. He can lane effectively, and jungling is very easy as well. He can also be built pretty much anything. Give him a go.
Just remember to buy a Blinkdagger/Shadowblade + Skullbasher/Rod of Atos as most of his troubles come from the lack of chasing spells.

Newsflash, it does stack. Multiple instances of similar aura won't stack, but you can have Feast/Insatiable Hunger/Moment of Courage + MoM/Satanic/Helm + Vlads + Vampiric Aura for a big bunch of lifesteal.
Max lifesteal:
80% from Insatiable Hunger (Broodmother)
30% Vampiric Aura
16% Vladimirs Aura
200% Satanic (25% passively, 175% from active)
Total 326% lifesteal.
Alternatively, replace Insatiable Hunger with something like Feast.

Race car doom says vroom vroom.
Funnily enough, my build actually worked out pretty well. Late game I was doing 400+ damage because of Venge's aura and Vlad's stacked.
[editline]5th June 2013[/editline]
Plus I was running at 522 speed ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
Just had my first stompy game of Lone Druid. It was all random and none of us rolled a carry, so I (disruptor) rerolled and got him, took him offlane with vengeful. Fortunately because he's so fucking insane at last hitting it didn't matter that venge insisted on going for last hits so I manned up, got 7 kills on lane, 5 of them lifestealer who insisted on jungling him. I killed him 5 times at the small camp. The only time LS manages to succeed in jungling is if the enemy refuses to bother ganking, in which case they deserve to lose. Radiance bear is great, too.

Are you sure?
"These items do not stack with each other. The one in the highest priority slot will override the others."

oh wait, I just carried on reading and it seems you're right. How come I've never seen it before?
It at least doesn't stop the fact that MoM is a horrible pickup on riki (and so is vlads), and that AM and riki needn't both have the vlads.
I just realized that Huskar gets TWENTY attack speed per stack.
On top of the magic immunity.
I will definitely instalock huskar and play a hero that ISN'T shit.
The tournament listings seem to be a bit buggy at the moment, but there is an option to hide team names which is nice (to prevent spoilers on old tournaments)... Even if it doesn't appear to work yet.
So, um. About doom's aghs. It doesn't just not count down when you are close. It refreshes the duration when you come into AoE of 550. So basically you can just cast doom, fight, then come to the doomed person again and bam, 16 seconds more.

Wykrhm, /r/dota2 mod, Playdota Staff, and one of the earliest beta testers. (he also has Icefrog on his Steam Friendlist for that matter).

Actually it doesn't refresh it. It refreshes that second of it. Meaning that every time you get near him it would refresh the doom to its current second. So let's say you got away for 8 seconds and now he has 8 seconds left of doom left on, he gets close and now its stuck at 8 seconds until you get away. It doesn't refresh to 16 seconds. I tested this earlier.
Really? I tested it with bots and it seemed to be the other way. Although wait, maybe that was like Eidolons multiplying: the timer looks like it's full and then goes out really fast.

Yep. It works exactly like eidolons multiplying. Counter looks full but then goes down faster.

mom isn't that horrible on riki if you pick it up against the right lane. if you have 2 squishies in your lane it's actually really good since you can kill both of them while they're in the cloud.
Holy christ I just had a strange game as Apparition, where QoP abandoned about 15 minutes in but their team pushed us back for another 40-odd minutes. Spectre accidentally got 1 or 2 kills on her ulti. Still, it ended nicely.

omg omg omg
yay, i cant play any dota games because steam keeps booting me out of the game randomly with "no steam login" error. never had it before the latest patch.
Why am I not able to play Storm Spirit at all, his combo doesn't do enough when I use it. Am I missing something?
I was just browsing the Steam Market and seeing how much things go for when this Stumpy in particular caught my eye:

Seems kinda sad to see it in the market.

Considering Riki needs to stack agility and has a massive base damage because of it, he benefits quite a lot from Vlads itself
[QUOTE=l l;40908223]nah, there shouldn't.[/QUOTE]
Let me guess, if the pause lasts mroe than 30 seconds you whine about how you want to play and not wait?

It fits "Ability abuse". Unpausing is given to all players to avoid abuse of pausing and refusing to unpause, unfortunately abuse works the other way around too.
