each side always pick the same 5 heroes, with the same lanes. thus, games are about mechanics and group coordination. show was apparently in charge of giving out team orders on zsmj's old zhensan team. each carry player has to control a bunch of siege units that you can purchase, and use those to last hit while the hero itself go do something else like jungling. the carry player farms for 80% of the game, only attends team fights after getting full stack of items not sure about the rest of the roles, but for a carry player this seems to fit zsmj's mold quite well. | ||

From the sounds of it, you are able to purchase mercenaries like you could in wc3. Also seems a lot like DotA during Drow/PL/Dusa era  | ||

Lately I've been mass-picking BH, Drow, Centaur. More so on the BH because track gold itself is a carry on its own, and most of the time, our feeding team mates will bounce back no problem with track. Do I have a problem? | ||

I almost always SBlade on Drow anyway lol, haven't tried on Centaur but I should. In fact, SBlade on most heroes are good (kinda like the Midas-addiction effect). And yeah I've tried the SBlade build on BH (thanks to kupons!  ), and most of the time I only get it when the game is somewhat fairly won already or we got a huge lead. I can't get myself to do it as the guide says because I do play games where enemy team will sentry/dust/gem up and actually try to counter me. | ||

In terms of Mana Regen items, what's the difference between % based and the decimal based? ie. Ring of Aquila (0.65) and a Sage's Mask (50%) Let's say the base regen of one hero is currently 5 per second. With Ring of Aquila, does it become 5.65 or multiplied by 65% (meaning more than Sage's Mask)? With Sage's Mask, I figure it becomes 7.5 per second right? | ||

With Ring of Aquila, does it become 5.65 or multiplied by 65% (meaning more than Sage's Mask)? With Sage's Mask, I figure it becomes 7.5 per second right? Ring gives a flat .65 mana per second, so you would have 5.65 mana regen per second in your example. This is why you buy ring on heroes with low mana regen, as it can give more than a percentage based-item would give you. | ||
