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.

The thing about Valve's model is that it's partially reliant on a community that's willing and able to produce content for them. A large chunk of the new cosmetics come out of the Steam Workshop, and the development overhead would be much higher if Valve needed inhouse artists to produce all that content.

Fortunately, the DotA community is both large and active enough to oblige.

Pennants ARE re-enabled, though you can still only get TI2 team pennants.

You can get items from tournaments with navi etc pennants

I would love for you to go to the DotA2 store and point me to where i can buy pennants
Because i have yet to find them, i know they work for tournaments again, but they are not currently in the store AFAIK.


And yes the DotA community is happy to create OC, can't wait for custom games.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

You don't need pennants to get items now. Stop spreading misinformation.

plus you just get like common items with a different tag. chances of getting an actual decent item from watching is very very slim. not like TI2 where they give you good stuff.

I noticed last night if you blink while you skewer someone, you end up at the target blink location along with the skewer target(s). So you should be able to Chen fountain skewer, which is much better than a pudge fountain hook because you get full range at low levels.

I've also been skewering people up into inescapable terrain when they try to get runes (especially when the game starts) then tping out. There's some broken stuff going on.

You can skewer them without being stuck yourself.

Xboct saying they need to go to China

It's good to have an escape plan if you don't quite pull that off.

It's pretty easy to do, just click on the ledge part before the path-able terrain... if you can't pull that off, you need to work on your mouse accuracy.

What do you guys use as hotkeys for items?

I use alt + q/w/e/a/s/d

Is that the "best" setup? I know it depends on the player, but I'm the typical one who uses the QWER setup.

this is talked about alot, and there isnt a special answer. Use whats best and easy for you.

I use keys that are easy for me to hit with the fewest mistakes.

Tab, Space, Z, X, C

I use Tab for the items i use frequently (Phase boots/mana boots/Bottle/armlet)
Space for my most commonly used combat active (Blink/Forcestaff/Manta)
Z is normaly my wand
the rest are whatever other items i need

Yeah I know it's all preference, but wanted to see some other setups so I can try them out. I like yours but just not the Tab since I'd use that for multiple units controls.

I have managed to pull the ancient camp to the mid lane as Radiant without doing any weird stuff (just the usual pull) by accident. I will investigate the timings tomorrow, but if it turns out to be true and you couple it with the other pull you can do on Radiant mid lane it might turn out gamebreaking. Pulling on mid is a huge deal due to it's volatile nature. Dire should be given equal chance, but most likely it means changing the behavior of creeps or the terrain.

The usual mid lane pull for Radiant needs fixing really TBH... I wonder why it's been left untouched for a while?

I think it's because although you can pull it, you can't really farm it. If you pull the small and big camp, the dude that does the pulling can get some farm and level, but if you pull the ancient, the effect is gonna be the same (the creep wave got pulled), but you just can't get any farm.
