Ulfsaar the Warrior is the fiercest member of an ursine tribe, protective of his land and his people. During the long winters, while the mothers sleep and nurse their cubs, the males patrol the lands above—tireless, vigilant defenders of their ancient ways. Hearing dim but growing rumors of a spreading evil, Ulfsaar headed out beyond the boundaries of his wild wooded homeland, intending to track down and destroy the threat at its source, before it could endanger his people. He is a proud creature with a bright strong spirit, utterly trustworthy, a staunch ally and defender.

The new item, heavens halberd is fairly effective against ursa aswell as Ghost sceptre(but ofcourse,becarefull as it will amplyify magic damage taken.

except ursa often get it himself... also the abyssal blade.. those are now core items of ursa so he could basicly 1v5 with heart and BKB Vlad

Holy fed Ursa. Show me a game where the opponents are not complete noobs where you got all those items.

[image loading]

not quite there yet but almost....

Still missing the heart and halberd...

Last game before the servers shut down I played Riki and went 14-0-12...lol. Would be even more if my team wasn't so afraid to enter their jungle, where I spent most of the game and watched Prophet and Chen farm from from the shadows. Using heroes like Riki and Gondar feels like 6-pooling your way to Masters. You own as long as people don't know what to do, and get stomped otherwise.


Riki is a relatively strong hero who doesn't fit well into most pro strategies. There have been cases where he has been picked in pro matches and performed well. Even though he seems like a noob hero, he farms very well thanks to backstab, has high damage output thanks to that + blinkstrike, an early game escape mechanism, and an aoe silence with a large radius at level 4. His main weakness is that he is very fragile and needs to farm survivability items (like most carries), but his damage output is insane and his cloud forces the other team's carries to buy bkb or mkb to reliably do damage in team fights.

Noob rikis sit in the other team's jungle and hope they don't bait or buy wards or dust or gem. Good rikis will join early/mid-game fights where he can pick kills and farm like a champ otherwise. 1 creep wave = 1 hero kill and it's much faster and easier to farm creep waves than it is to scout out and find a hero kill. Porting in and sniping kills then farming is the best way to play him, like any other carry.

pretty much!
the map he is playing right now is named Magecraft in sc2....
all the war3 custom maps could be remade in sc2 with ease but the custom map system is worst than what we had in 1998 so...

They're way better. Heros and real skills, and a proper inventory/shop system its way better than the garbage UMS we get in SC2, WC3 had the best by far.

u can very easily have heroes and skills in sc2 as well
the sc2 editor is much more powerful than the wc3 one, the only difference is that there's no reason to make an sc2 map when nobody is going to play it anyway

Am I the only dota spectator that never played any dota games? I watched the invitational and I became interested in understanding the game without playing. Can't say it is easy. Now I understand everything other then builds and I can appreciate good combos and pushes.
I really hope dota2 becomes popular. I would watch lol but I dislike how it looks.

I started playing LoL to learn the basics of ARTS when Valve announced DotA 2. I'm such a fanboy XD.

DotA so much better. The champions are actually unique and interesting, as well as not having a developer dedicated to ruining everything I love about the game -.-
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

On the subject of ursa, this was probably my favorite game so far from the beta,
[image loading]

Just halberd/fearing him in fights for a good portion of it. they did get the first 3 or so rosh kills starting at lvl 1 though.

The last real fight I found hilarious, fighting them in their base while drow killed the last set of racks. Our whole team ended up dead but then so did the racks.
rejection and peace tiramisu. I think that went well.

I'm confused. Are they implying they're upcoming in the next patch, or that they're upcoming as in "whenever Valve feels like it."

Yeah, the human model for Syllabear looks alot like Zeus tbh.

@beef: they never said the next patch so I'm assuming it's just going to be in a patch coming some time soon. Maybe this week's, maybe the next.
