I mean, they made it so that every other attack animation (correct me if I'm wrong here) accurately represents when the damage is dealt. Is there a reason to single out Razor? Because that's the way it was in Dota 1. The same reason why Lina/Zeus still have stupidly annoying animations :/ | ||

The improvement between wc3 and dota2 is EXTREME. The old "Gilette" (his fun name) used to spit out a lightning that lasted a set amount of time. In melee range the lightning would last after the damage was dealt and on max range you'd have 0.2 seconds after the lightning disappeared before the hit. Also , BALANCE AROUND BEING TERRIBLE HURRR | ||

Sidenote - I just made a brag thread. I forgot to search before making it, there wasn't one before, correct? If there was then oops. If there wasn't, there needed to be one. | ||

ranged vanguard blocking full damage wait what? thats a thing on razer? also yeah, there is another brag thread called "when you feel like dendi" or something. I dont think we should have a dick stroking thread though, its just going to lead to one of those threads where people post about how awesome they are but never read any other posts. | ||

He's talking about how prior to 6.65, Vanguard gave 40 block value to both melee and ranged, not just melee. This was actually the era in which Vanguard was "good on everyone", and is arguably why there are still players who buy Vanguard on a lot of heroes the item is actually terrible on now. It used to be that good. | ||

It used to be that good. Slight correction there, ranged gets 20 damage block instead of 40, while block chance stays at 70%. | ||

I'm a little meh on having another thread like that as well, anyone else have opinions? I don't like the idea of general turning into a series of 5-6 huge threads where people just list things and don't read other posts, the QQ one isn't great but it kind of serves a purpose in having a place you can publicly vent (which I think is more important than bragging). | ||

I agree, the brag thread is completely pointless. No one actually cares what others post, they just want to feel important. | ||

I think brag threads never go down well... it'll just end up in back and forth flaming, sooner or later ending up in Godwin's Law. | ||

This is why i play DOTA! https://dotabuff.com/matches/48268889 I(Haike) was in MM with 1 friend(m2nub). He was testing the Shadowblade BH build. I wanted to try Alchemist. Our opponents were from the same clan, obviously on some form of communication skype or raidcall etc. My team was pwned so hard, we were prepared to give up. The kill score was like 30-5 or something.Then one of them decided to taunt us thinking they won. "remember my name" he said. "noobs" he said. That definitely gave us the kick to start playing with everything we've got. Long story short, we defended with all we had, even lost both side lane barracks....but no! We didnt give up! Finally we had 1 single battle where we wiped them, and it was straight down the middle to throne. YES! MY TEAM WON! hahaha. After a agonizing 1hour worth of game time, my team fking won! I cant believe it myself! Morale of the story:- Dont taunt people, especially before its really over(i define that as attacking the throne and its about to fall over) There's always a chance to win if we dont give up. Shadowblade Bounty Hunter is legit.(that BIG RED NUMBERS) Alchemist is really overpowered of a hero. This is the comeback story (lost early/mid game badly, lost both side towers) that keeps me playing DOTA. I love this game EDIT: Put in the right match ID Moral of the story: - pick 5 semi-carries / carries - dont get smashed before 50 minutes - ??? - win [...] | ||
