damn i'm really late but doppelwalk is a farming spell with a moderately useful escape tacked on if you max it you can spam it to farm neuts/lanes w/o a soul ring also take his ulti at 6, it doesn't actually make much of a difference but 10% magic resist is generally going be more useful than 38 hp

Its here! 6.75b is upon us!
|
I'm so excited for the next few days/weeks of competitive Dota 2, so many heroes are going to be either phased out completely (Lycan, Morph) and lots of underplayed heroes are going to be getting through (Jakiro, SF, maybe Barathrum, or Doom?)
The new banning/picking phase with 2 bans first and 3 bans second is going to be neat too, I'm really looking forward to seeing how teams adapt :3
|
I wont go so far as say the nerfed heroes will be phased out completely but all the experimentation will definitely make things interesting.

Lycan's going to be pretty awful in the woods, he still might be a niche pick in pushing line-ups because of his global attack damage buff, but he's going to be a nuisance to lane as/woods as. His wolves are pretty terrible now, unfortunately.
Morph's whole appeal was that his damage was high, and combined with waveform (which got its' AOE reduced, casting animation increased, and you no longer auto attack while waveforming) being nerfed, you're going to see him get picked a lot less.
He still might be picked sometimes in certain games, but he's not going to be the go-to carry similar to how he is now.

what exactly does the team creation entail? Is it simply being able to make yourself a 'clan' like the pros have with banners etc if you queue 5? Or just that little icon in your profile?
I'm hoping for a real ladder for teams, queue as 5, active, visible MMR with rankings and stuff. That would be cool.
|
Ya pretty much expected when 6.75b rushed out like out. Cant wait for magnus!!!
team creation thingy should be like a clan system allowing people to make a 'team' xD
|
So it's a mostly superficial for nearly everyone. I really wish Valve would realize there is a huge portion of the Dota community that actually want to have meaningful competition within the game itself. We really need a ranked play option with transparent ladders for solo queue and 5 man etc.
|
Yes, big patch as expected! :D
|
Anyone have the link to the dev thread regarding the patch?
|
lesh edict delay seems as big as stun delay dam thats gonna hurt

Lycan should work just fine as a #1 afk farmer in a push-oriented lineup, anyway. He was kind of icky in the jungle to me, because his early ganks weren't too strong and he also limited possible lineups because it's tough to have a real carry in addition to him due to the easy lane becoming too weak.

gamebattles just launched for dota2. Nothing like an official ladder obviously, but it's entertaining at the very least.

anyone knows what exactly is the difference between Latest and Tournament in custom game now?
Is there still any way to get back into pre 75b once the patch is live?
Say Starladder want to finish their groupstage/tiebreaker with old patch. Or is there no way back
