IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Hey guys I just started playing Dota 2 and have been reading the guides and stuff, but one thing that confuses me coming from LoL is the tower aggro. Can anyone explain to me how that works? Like sometimes I can be pushing a tower, there's no enemy heroes nearby (so i cant have accidentally hit them), theres plenty of friendly creeps around and i'm auto-attacking the tower, but sometimes the tower suddenly starts attacking me. how does that work?

To prevent that, take the habit of moving in between each attack. If you're melee, attack, cancel the end of the animation, attack again, etc. That way you're sure the tower will not change target in between each one of its attacks, and notice when the tower is about to last hit a creep, and be extra careful to back just a little in between your attacks until the tower acquired a new target (another creep and not you)

In short, just make sure that in the moment that the current creep the tower is attacking is about to die, you are not attacking the tower and are moving around or attacking something else, and the tower will aggro something else.

He most likely played WC3 at least a bit, so he probably stumbled upon DotA too.

Veno is one of my all time favorite heroes. Such fun to play (although I do not go full support on him, even though I should). But it is just very enjoyable, especially ward micro.

They don't suck! That is blasphemy! The group of trees right next to the T1 midlane radiant side, you can block people inside the trees with 2 wards, or protect yourself as well (perfect placement against melee0. I do not see them as doing damage, but being more tanky. Having level 1 is too easily killed, even in beginning. So need to level them up so not free gold and takes several hits to kill.

Wards are pretty insane for damage if you can disable someone next to some high level wards... For example with Shadow Shaman. Can get some surprisingly easy kills in the early game if the enemy goes into their range without a damage buffer. Also for traps, as was mentioned. I think that Venomancer on the surface seems rather simple to play but in reality you have many little things to do that increase your efficiency(Mainly with wards).

As a side note, currently really enjoying Juggernaut. He seems incredibly powerful if you enter the fight as a cleanup, the ult without any creeps is pretty crazy. Also pretty insane if you manage to bait some high cooldown ultimates with the spin(This might not work against better players). No idea what I'm supposed to build, though. I've been going with some sort of a combination of Battle Fury, Phase Boots, Butterfly, Vlads, and Black King Bar. Maybe I should start building Aghanims, but on the other hand staying in that form for too long might be slightly detrimential to damage because of how good Juggernaut's basic attacks are ...
