leshrac hits a stun on 3 people not trying to avoid it. crowd goes wild?
does anyone know if the night cycle putting jungle creeps to sleep is going to be implemented though? like is it mentioned on a dev thread anywhere or is this not a big deal for dota 2
i wish i know russian to enjoy Dread stream more. He was pretty entertaining and the other day he went back to war3 to play castle fight, fireball etc...

neutral mechanic is still really buggy atm, they have flying vision and they could share enemy detection to attack you QQ... Also, what is the satyr mechanic on its random blast?

It's literally the same logic as Syllabear farming off aganist DS--Bear 4/4s every creep wave because bear + hero can lasthit together and midgame comes and a freefarmed Bear kills everything, while a freefarmed DS...is the same as regular DS.
You can't even kill someone with a level 2 dive the way you can with DS because tower aggro triggers on spell damage too and as everyone knows, tower damage is really high in LoL.
Well, i just watched a video of a LoL pro playing against this and he was definatelly missing last hits under the tower. I thought without random damage that would be extremelly easy. After the first wave he opened the score and singed had 7 LHs and he had 4.
Just watched the video involving "one of the best top laners in the world" and he missed so many LH's I couldn't stop laughing. For a game with 10% of the mechanics of dota 2 you would guess they could figure out how to last hit under the tower, but I guess not.
Because tower damage is higher, there's a broader range of "You just can't fucking kill this creep unless you're prescient", and it is muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch easier to last-hit against creeps that do 1/3rd your damage than it is a tower that does 3x your damage.So while last hitting versus a tower is easier in LoL than it is in DotA, CSing in a normal lane in LoL is proportionally easier than CSing under a tower when compared to DotA.
It'd be dead sexy to see someone solotop a carry in League. Either that, or see the game die because it's literally been the same lanes and same game for a million years, and innovation is patched, not celebrated. You know, either way.

I vaguely remember a thread saying it's not a big deal because with observers in the game they didn't sleep in DotA 1, no clue if that's accurate or not though. If it isn't it's probably in the same box as pause states and similar stuff. =(

lol what? Doesn't every single hero in LoL in the game have a mini-blink? I really don't see the significance of the play that makes the crowd shit themselves...

That's like saying "omg why is everyone excited about bisu winning, can't every protoss player just buy corsairs and reavers?" or watching football game and saying "there's nothing special in X team winning, every healthy human with a pair of legs can kick a ball"
