That'd be guinsoo dota then, i believe. Together with 90 second doom.
Yea..
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!

Was catching up on the latest hacking controversy in SC2 and got curious, are there Dota2 hackers out there? If anyone has run into them, what do they do and how can you tell?

Because of map information being almost entirely server sided and not client sided stuff like map hacks are impossible. More or less.


Some guy I played against claimed to be maphacking. His team said he was as well, and he seemed to have a very strange grasp of where things were on the map, but I don't have any proof.

Either way, it hasn't really become an issue yet.

Would be pretty easy to get proof though. Just watch the replay on player perspective.

That must be fake because those are bots.

Also I'm not sure how you would make a maphack for dota2. Were there any in HoN? If Valve's doing their job right you'd have to get server access somehow, so any major hacks like anyone can get for SC2 won't exist. Well, hopefully.
You must gather your party before venturing forth.

Seems like he is playing against bots (at the point where he "presses insert"). Doesn't bots move constantly like that at the start anyway? Shitty quality so can't read the names of the opponents.

Most likely a virus or some other that he is promoting with the video.

No, and you can clearly see that when he presses "insert" all the bugs dissapear and change spots. He is just loading up the replay and has removed the timer thingo. its dumb and i REALLY hope noone falls for it.

Maybe a bit of a weird question, but if any hero had an aura as an ultimate, what would the aura do? There are ultimate stuns, nukes, teleports, buffs, passives, blinks, transformations, heals, illusion abilities, invisibility spells, attack modifiers, but not a single aura in the ultimate slot. Why do you think that is? Would it be too hard to balance? Too boring?

edit: I guess undying's ultimate has an aura together with his transformation ult, but it doesn't really feel like an aura.

Well we have damage aura ultis (like pulse nova) though if you were to have an aura as an ultimate it'd probably have to be something actually cool. like a toggle aura that pulls enemies slightly toward you every so often ( Like a partial vaccuum every 1.5 seconds or whatever) something along those lines.

Old Razor had a damage aura as ultimate(think radiance).
It was arguably a better hero, just plan and boring. Frenzy(100% attack speed, but takes more damage), chain lightning, his current passive and a 50(at lvl 1) damage in 1000 aoe every 2.5 seconds ultimate.

Was the go to carry for bad players. Just get a radiance to show everyone you can't actually lasthit yourself and need all the help you can get.


The old lightning strike thing isn't an aura. It only hit one target ^_^ If it does damage it can't be an aura basically. Exception being if some hero had a reverse unholy aura. Considering Necro has this already as a normal skill essentially; you'd be getting gimped hard if you had it as an ultimate.

No, lol. Look at the change in picks after the game starts.

Building damage and immolation are both auras. that deal damage.

And razors old ulti did hit everything in an aoe. this is back when razor was frenzy chain lightning and unholy aura

Permanent immolation (if it's a toggle that costs mana it isn't an aura) could be an aura, but it isn't different from a reverse unholy aura; just different utilization of the same mechanic. Building damage is utilized as a placeholder effect to make the engine work. Do you consider wildkin Tornado an aura just because it utilizes building damage? Tornado is an active ability that you cast, not an aura. All these have the same end result anyways: damage. Which one you use is completely irrelevant.

I'll cede the razor argument merely because I didn't play enough dota back then to actually remember exactly how it worked. I remember it hitting a random target nearby with lightning which is certainly not an aura. If it hit everything in an AoE (do damage) then it shouldn't be an aura. If you have to press a button to unleash it then isn't an aura. If it just randomly goes out (or is based on some timing) then I'd still hesitate to call it an aura, but without knowing exactly how it works I won't say absolutely not.

Razors had like 3 reworks xD not anything you can blame for getting them mixed up. it was permanent immolation type thing with a delay on the ticks instead of just per second.

You know, i'm not too certain that Silencer is as OP as people make him out to be - he's a bit of situational in the midlane (and can't really roam effectively at all), he cant control bottle, his e isn't very spammable or anything, and he doesn't beat everyone mid. I think he's kind of situational mid (a bit like Nyx), or he'll play a 4 positiong in a trilane vs trilane situation.

What are your thoughts on this hero? Has anyone else played around with him in CM?

they weakened silencer in team fights to make his laning stronger, and people didn't pick him before despite decent laning and strong team fight, now that he has only his ultimate for team fights he's not really much more than a pub character or 1 position carry in specific situations

If you want to keep your sanity intact, for the love of god, DO NOT watch it. There are better ways to waste 50 minutes.
