All this talk about defensive treants make me want to go treads, bottle/soul ring, mask of madness on him.
Whenever Icefrog buffs something, there's usually a buff for its counter as well. A lot of heroes with DoT spells got buffed and bloodseeker can remove living armor with bloodrage now.
Anyone know if orb of venom removes living armor instances?
it should

it doesnt say that in the skill description and for refraction it does

Stop guessing and wait for Yango.

I just tested it and it doesn't.

I tested it before, it works like refraction in that regard. It also works after all reductions and is imba for that reason. maxed nukes deal like 90 damage through it.

okay 3 things i found out while playing today.
is there some kind of bug that when creeps killed by dispersion, i dont get the gold o.o i noticed this while playing spec today.
another thing is that can you shadowblade while charging with sb? because somehow somebody did it to my last game. it's kinda cool. AND you can static link + shadowblade? apparently the enemy cant see the link but it's still there

Only dispersion? lag and packet loss cause gold to not show up sometimes. Rest is normla, you can use windwalk throu most channeling spells, and they count as such

only dispersion yes.. hmm okay. learn new things everyday

I've noticed in the new patch that gold doesn't show up sometimes. Specifically, last hits on towers and Roshan show nothing. A lot of people are having this issue, I'm pretty sure.

You can never be sure it was dispersion that killed, it should give gold normally

Razor/SB shadowblade has been gimmick builds for a loooong time - the Razor can be quite funny, but ultimately not really worth it

I spectated a bit of high level ixdl games recently and treant is highly valued as a 4 slot. You just sit in lane as a deny machine, let slot 5 pull and you are done for the first 5 mins or so. They also tend to leak bat into the pick pool and pick VS as a soft counter, Luna is picked since ixmike heard a stat from bruno that Luna has sick winrate vs gyro. Overall, their meta is quite diverged to the extreme of the patch which also means that they are likely to underestimate the value of the traditional -CM line up. Doing all these for some Dreamhack overview

I eagerly await the mighty support kunkka

i cant comment on the barathum pick though, i havent seen any of those games but the score screen. Apparently its some bizarre build that involve you maxing aura first?? Since the change of bara aura, i havent get a single point of it until i max charge and bash. Idk.
|
Charge is a one-point wonder currently, doesn't sound weird at all. The only thing that changes from the proper farming SB build is that you max aura instead of Greater Bash.

Best thing ever happened yesterday:
Enemy team has a Naga and a Magnus...
They initate the battle with sleep and all gather to mosh us in a giant RP (looked like they would get 4).
I am the only one not in Sleep range... I hit a 4-5 Person AA Ult...
Sleep ends and RP gets 3 but not silencer ---> Silencer-Ult, Zeus-Ult, Spectre-Ult. Everything flashed for 3-4 secs.. Whole enemy team dead, everyone on my side alive.
<3 AA Ult.

Maxing charge is the way to go if you want to be useful in ganks.

Not sure, actually. You're thinking about some X marks the spot + buyback tricks, huh? That could be fun.
