Well, for a lot of people, their DotA experience is the only thing that the hurricane is effecting, personally. It's natural that they will complain about it, there's nothing inherently malicious or ignorant about it.

Finally learned how to lasthit..You need to pick your target then spam S untill your ready to kill it..Different mechanics from *cough* LoL *cough* where you had to juke around untill you last hit, standing still would get you owned quickly. (well it still does, but its different right XD) In dota the heros actually "turn" so theres always a delay in last hitting if your juking like that..It all makes sense naow.
Went from managing 4 cs in the first 10 mins to about 30-40, its still shit, but i dont feel like a tard now! :D

It was meant as a joke btw, i know nobody is thinking "I wish more people would die instead of my internet game being disrupted" - Thats ludicrous.

Or you can turn auto-attack off and just stand there without spamming S, as a new DotA player with no old habits I actually prefer this way.

^Except that makes you predictable as to when will you lasthit and can easily be denied...
There's a reason you cancel attack animation.

or just do both and you don't have to spam S as much to fake animations

I apologise. I'm normally good at picking up jokes from just pure context, but I don't think i'll be able to say that anymore.

The report system WORKS !!!! IT WORKS
This morning I played with a Tinker who decided to ruin the game for all of us because our HARDLANE SOLO Bestmaster farmed the ancients. We all reported him and look what I just found after launching my dota 2 client.

Had what I feel was my strongest game of Dota 2 yet last night. Brewmaster solo mid, ended the game with 190 last hits, right around 550gpm and 10/1/7....and I could have avoided that one death if I had just pressed R faster.
It's not an impressive stat line for a pro or high level player to be sure, but as a relatively new player, I felt good about it. The entire game just felt 'right'. My map awareness was decent, I was all over the place, pushing towers, showing up for surprise sex ganks, et al. Just overall felt like my most complete came of Dota to date, and gave me the sense that all the study and practice I'm putting in is starting to amount to something.

Second alternative is to do both while canceling the attack animation at different intervals instead of just spamming.

??? It's pretty predictable when someone is going to last hit, you don't cancel animations because of that.

Nothing better than logging in and seeing that message.

Ehhhhh... I've seen that message a few times, but I never remember who it is for. No point in dwelling on the bads, I banish them from my mind as soon as I see they aren't on my team next MM game

Tbh I still prefer moving around, you just need to get accustomed to turnrates. Standing still spamming stop attack works when you are in good position or done shortly to distract their lasthit, but makes you easier target for many skills and gives a small window for your enemies to line themselves up better according to your position.
But if it works for you, no problem. 30-40 is still >>> 4 : )

I don't use S at all anymore. I used to, but once I started understanding move speeds and turn rates, it became kind of a crutch. It's still useful, and if you're really quick on the draw you can do some funny things with heroes that have a critical strike...but I rarely use it to last hit anymore.

Can you take advantage of the crits animation? Maybe I'm too slow, but it seems absolutely impossible to me to keep stopping your attack animation and only let the crit go off.

Unless you are a freefarming melee, don't use s spamming.
|
im pretty sure its virtually impossible to take advantage of crits animations like that. It seems like you might be able to with Flash (Im talking DC comics Flash not BW Flash) like reflexes but I bet its more or less impossible.
|
It's possible but really fucking hard. And gets impossible after first attack speed item
|
It's almost impossible, but I've seen it done on accident a couple of times. Really it's just fun to freak your opponent out with, especially on CK who does this huge RAWRRR slash animation with a special sound when his crit triggers.

I still farm with S spam even on ranged heroes, except for some super-fast-attack-animation heroes like sniper. I still think S spam is king on heroes like Lina and Drow.
As for S spam to take advantage of crits...anyone able to do that should undergo a doping screen because you high, son.
