IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Only one of those i'd consider important. and thats bkb. and even then depending on your comp BKB might not be the needed item. sometimes the power you get from long range nether strike -> charge is enough.

I feel there is two ways to play SB. You can play him as a carry (with items like armlet, MoM, lothars, BKB, AC, etc), or you can play him as a setup utility kinda guy (urn, drums, ags, etc). Playing him as a carry in mid or supported, you may want to go the first build. But if you don't have a good lane, and there is already 4 other carries on your team, the later build still does a lot of damage and helps your team a lot, while not depending on farm as much.
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

I think there's two ways to build sb, one as a solo killer, second in teamfights. Mask of madness is great in solo killing, horrible in teamfights.
I don't think you need lothars once you learn to walk to unexpected angles before you start charging to avoid wards, It's also a solo killing item and you get max movement speed with mask of madness + empowering haste.

As a utility, you get even less gold, and a bkb helps a lot more than agh. Agh would help if there are non-stop solo kill opportunities, but that's pretty much feeding.

Orchid's is very good on him since he does a lot of burst damage, and it prevents stuns (just like orchids helps clinks), and the ias is very useful. Also it makes you lock down two heroes in teamfights.

The big deal is that the Guild system has been added. Time to get a teamliquid guild rolling?

Well, first of all people need to be invited and can be kicked. Second of all, it adds quite a lot of automation to finding groups to party with etc. I think it would be really sweet to have.

Meaning there will be moderation within the guild right?

You can be a part of up to 4 guilds at the same time. That's nice, would've been stupid if you could be in one at a time only.

Anyway, i am really pleased with all the work valve seems to be putting into their tutorial system, they even reward people hats for completing it. And people love hats.
So now there's an actual incentive to COMPLETE the tutorial and no longer just "Ugh, a tutorial? I'll pass"
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!

Yeah. I hope Valve goes the extra step of showing this to new players. Not just "Oh you're completely new, you're forced to play at least 2 tutorial missions" since that will lead to people just doing those two and not doing any more. Hopefully they will show very clearly that there are cosmetic benefits to completing more tutorials.

Hell, I can't wait to play through the tutorials myself, I think it's a really great idea.
