Basically, I'm wondering if there are any people left who might return and make a splash on the scene, or players who had some kind of fame in Dota who might now return to Dota 2. Any idea? | ||

That Force Staff can dodge range attacks when activated at the right time. It dodged Clink's Searing Arrow from getting the last hit for the kill. Good thing I'm still learning something new. | ||

What probably happened is that you forced yourself onto high ground, which caused the attack to miss based on high ground miss chance (DotA 2 checks attack miss chance on hit, rather than when the attack is released--a difference from DotA 1 that I believe is on the known bugs list). | ||

I didn't use Force on myself (Clinkz), the enemy hero had it and used it on himself to dodge it. | ||

Force Staff does not make the target invulnerable or disjoin projectiles in any way. If it somehow does in DotA 2, it's a bug. | ||

If he moved from low ground onto high ground, attacks in flight can miss based on the high ground miss chance because DotA 2 checks miss chance when the projectile hits rather than when the attack is launched (known bug/change in DotA 2). Force Staff does not make the target invulnerable or disjoin projectiles in any way. If it somehow does in DotA 2, it's a bug. Nope, no high ground stuff. I just looked at replay too. I was Clinkz, chasing Axe and go for the kill. Did not succeed because of the Force Staff use. Here it is @ exactly the 31 minute mark: https://dotabuff.com/matches/99449937 Now I don't know if that was intentional by Axe but I was very surprised. He didn't have evasion at all, and he didn't block the damage either as his HP didn't drop at all after my Searing Arrow was suppose to "hit". | ||

You missed because of Brewmaster's Drunken Haze debuff, which he cast on you a couple seconds earlier. The Force Staff had nothing to do with it. If you slow down the replay, the Force Staff happens entirely after your attack already missed. | ||

I totally missed the Drunken Haze debuff... How embarrassing lol. That's why we got TheYango to save us from further humiliation! I guess the timing of that Force Staff shook me. | ||

I don't really know many people who remember to use the log, but yes - this can all be verified via the combat log | ||
