the flying unit doesn't really matter too much though, doesn't it? not like there's techies in dota 2 yet

I believe the hook in Dota 2 is larger then in Dota 1.

not the hook size, but the aoe at the end of the hook

I don't think so, would go against the entire 'Dota 1 = Dota 2' concept.

oh okay, maybe it's just the graphics change that makes me think so :s

The hook is rather odd in dota2, in dota1 it didn't have that strange thing on the top  It feels strange to me most of the time, like the aoe doesn't really match the model.

Because there were like a million bugs with him that didn't get fixed until a couple of the recent patches. Check the patch notes for details.

It only matters in one case right now and that's CM's Frostbite. Since Frostbite is coded based on Entangling Roots, it can't target flying units in DotA 1.

next.KZ know they're there but venge goes to howl roshan so EG can bring him down before next.kz's ready for the fight, wp?

EG vs Next.kz, coL vs Mouz, Dendi streaming a scrim..
if I understood ukrainian/russian this would be perfect

so in dota 2 it doesn't matter at all whether it's flying or not yet? u think if techies gets introduced, land mines wont be triggered by flying heroes? :p

Mechanically they were not flying heroes (they couldn't move over terrain, didn't have flying vision, etc.). The only hero that's a flying hero in the game mechanics sense was Batrider during Firefly.
