I don't even know why Dagon's is so disappointing. They could have just straight ripped the visuals/sound from Lion's ult (just like it is in DotA 1) and I think it'd be great.

Yes, that is the Chuan that plays for Zenith/iG.

The specifics are probably exaggerated to varying degrees, but the general story (used to be a Basketball star in high school, suffered a career-ending injury, ended up playing a lot of DotA and ending up in a competitive DotA career) is true.

This game needs colorblind mode SO BAD
I can't discern things in any graphic setting, there once was colorblind mode in there but they just removed it.... I lost hope.


I really second this. When playing over winter break, my friend (who is partially colorblind) brought this up. Especially if you're newer to the game and don't recognize character/creep models quickly.
Hope Valve really does something about this!

I was killed 3 times by a morphling with dagon before I realised that he had gotten dagon. That's not right, even if I shouldn't have been so lazy to click on him to check his items. :D

Manta needs a better sound but I'm not sure about deso. Sure, DotA1 had an amazing deso sound but I don't think it's necessary to be in DotA2.

My only real quip with the graphics/sound in DotA 2 is that some of the item effects are too inconspicuous. Particularly on game-changing teamfight items like Mekansm and Pipe, the sound and visuals need to stick out more (and the buffs need to be more visible).

Also, good luck hearing the little *puff* sound of a Magic Wand in a teamfight.

Yeah, there are a lot of buffs that you can't really see in dota 2, and the sounds are more or like the same than sc2 sounds compared to bw sounds, basic. And it doesn't even show auras anyway ><
That apart, I really love the graphics/animations. The game is beautiful.

Auras show under your hero and look neat (if your wearing the item itself)? I don't get that complaint?


Desolator in Dota 1 was WAY superiour to anything in Dota 2 tho.. So badass .

The main reason I hope they implement auras showing on creeps etc is because it was a big giveaway if you were farming creeps and suddenly they gained an RoB or Vlads aura.
