In warcraft 3 it is not possible to say how much damage the autoattack deals, so instead it will always spill the next damage that the targeted unit takes, so if cast diffusal on the illusion before the autoattack hits, it would spill the diffusal instead of the actual attack.
So the window is between autoattack projectile launch and projectile hit right? So dagon should be core on TA in dota 1...
(okay I get that the application is very narrow).
Yup, spilling dagon damage was a lot of fun but extremely tough as well. Had to get timing + positioning right. Think I only managed to get kills with that trick twice in the one or two games I tried to exploit that.

Also, brood's in pubs don't realize that when 5 heroes go to fight 4 heroes, that she should be pushing as hard as she can. (they usually diddle daddle)
I think the pushing part of Brood is the easier to understand aspect. When to join the fight is what most people don't do well and land up costing team.

That, and how to not feed the enemy zillions of spiderlings. Leaving them under alchemist acid spray is kind of hilarious.

Spirit breaker is a terrible hero, and most pubs are awful with invoker. Plus 4/5 that lineup are decently farm dependant and the nyx probably tried to take what farm he could as well.
I mean, yay you beat drow but she really does only win ~57% of games so it isn't impossible.
Winning with meepo/broodmother/morphling/am/timbersaw would be impressive.
Sidenote/QQ: Why did they buff centaur into wild overpoweredness before porting him to dota 2, but left timbersaw as utterly useless when they ported him? No fair...
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
ok lets do that tonight. while we are on that we should make a challenge thread.

BTW are you really from SA? Which part?
Study at UCT , come from Durban.
Cool. I used to vacation in Durban when I was a kid. Haven't been to SA since... '04 though.

Oh gosh, that challenge thread would be pretty brutal. However, that particular lineup wouldn't be the absolute worst. You could run something like BM suicide, Meepo mid, Morph supporting AM in safe lane and timbersaw pull/jungle. Sure it would be slow/bad/vulnerable to ganks, but I'm convinced that Strength-Morph support is better than people give it credit for.

Took you a while to figure that out xD
i dont spam broken hero, only pl and bat.
"I Don't spam the most broken hero, just the strongest, most banned hero in the game!"
Also, I tuned in to admiral bulldog's stream the other day and he spent 5 minutes blaring on about how bat was the strongest hero in the game... He actually sounded a bit mad about it (He was playing bat that game).

Why would you turn around when your position was nice.
