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.

I dunno what to think of it. It's obviously not the grand release given 0 forewarning/advertising on Valve's part, and it seems strange to open it to the public now rather than waiting for the next big tutorial update (which they seem to be making progress on after being stuck at only 1 for ages)

Oh well, exciting times one way or another.

Naix (Lifestealer) can be tricky since you can't tether if he's magic immune from Rage (Rage won't break it though). Some other heroes that can work well are Pudge, Slardar, Slark, Centaur, Skeleton King

I really don't think we will have a lot of new people coming in just because dota2 doesn't require betakey anymore but what do I know.
just hope the game will keep improving :D

Did they change it where when you buy back your TP becomes a 5 second one? Anyone else getting this? My first tp of my game i bought back first.

Did you TP to a tower with allied heroes near it? Because that increases the TP time.

IT takes more than just removing the requirement to bring people in. It takes them knowing about it

Have people developed opinions about Skeleton King's new active ability yet?

I was snowballing like hell as Bristleback in a game last night, but that 20%-of-my-hp-gone-no-matter-what nuke made my life seem much harder than it would've otherwise. It wasn't enough to stop me though.

It's decent, but not blatantly overpowered. If you go for non-strength to strength, you gain a small amount of hp back total (around 30). Was testing to see if I could combo it with wd maledict or visage soul assumption.

new pudge passive so imba :D
pudge game yesterday, game was pretty close, in the end i had almost 6k hp with only hot and agha as hp items, had over 40 charges on it :D

i dont know what to think about new skeletons skill, in theory it looks pretty damn strong with 20% max hp gone for virtually no mana at all but hero still doesnt feel strong at all
