We got stomped but I was in good mood and told our silencer and naix to stop raging, it was not the international 3 final. NAix answered rage is one of his skill. It made me laugh.
edit : and versus a linken I used click on the ground stun from SK and it still pops linken, I used to think it did not Linkens blocks some spells that one would assume are AoE, such as ES's Fissure and SK's Burrowstrike. Yay for Dota, game of exceptions. I wish they'd fix that shit already, I miss burrowstriking behind people who have Linken's 
It's intentional iirc. Personally i'd prefer if both those spells weren't unit-targetable anymore and treated units like ground targeting, so Linken would never trigger in both cases, but the item is pretty shitty already so mb icefraud isn't interested.
EDIT: also bottlecrow isn't getting nerfed like that, it's something subtler.

Just so you know, the fix isn't about the damage, if it ever happens.
The parity difference is that Bear is receiving additional HP regen and AS, which he isn't supposed to.
The damage is standard across Dota2 and Dota 1.

I'm really surprised this is taking so long to fix. I guess its because the bear counts as a creep and not a hero, but it shouldn't be that difficult to have a flag that checks if armlet is on "creep - bear".

The spells actually have no unit-targeting behavior. Any of those spells that were both unit- and ground-targetable in DotA 1 are always treated as ground-targeting in DotA 2. Even if you unit-target them, they're treated as ground-targeting the location where the hero was when you cast.
This is only really observable with the spells that have longer cast animations (e.g. Earthshaker's Fissure) or when a hero with Blink is involved. If you move quickly or blink during the cast animation, in DotA 1 a unit-targeted cast would track the hero through the cast animation and still land, while in DotA 2, it always casts at the location where the hero was at the beginning of the cast animation.
This bug is actually part of why Earthshaker is seen a lot less in DotA 2 than DotA 1. Fissure always being treated as ground-targeting is a very significant nerf to the hero.

I meant that in the sense that i'd like them not to be blocked by linken ever, because in dota1 they're blocked in a case and not in another, while in dota2 they're always blocked while to me it make more sense to be never blocked because you never target a "unit" but the ground where that unit is.

Do you guys sometimes lose motivation or just get bored playing dota(even tough you're winning)? Been having this feeling for awhile now.

You're just playing too much. I have this happen all the time to games I play because I play them so much for a month and then don't touch them again for a month or two.

^Maybe you're right. Been playing dota for 6 years.

I really do, especially when a Pudge loses mid lane to a SF after Chen camped his lane for two kills.

Go Euls + Blink on every hero, it's a worse puck "phase-blink" escape.
