I generally find myself not wanting to go in melee range of the enemy team so there is that...

Damn this is why refresher spec gives 70mins game and armlet spec gives game of loss (it wouldn't be that bad of an item except he went manta next and team has no vlad). Suddenly I have respect for aui's skadi spec.


Please I've done Spectre Refresher a lot, the longest game I had was 60min... I got trilaned against and wrekt.
At 40 min I managed to get Radiance. I had Phase/Bracer... I even had to sell Bracer just to get Radiance recipe. In the span of the next 20min I managed to get 6 slotted. Enemy team even had 3 roshes.... Every other game was between 35-45 mins.

To not get hard games like the one I described, I have discovered that Armlet first then Rad/Refresher is the best.
Armlet is just too good on Spectre in a losing game. It's easier to toggle on her than other heroes since you take less damage from everything.
Also if you've been Armlet toggling for a long time in a fight, the enemies will be discouraged to chase you since you are dispersing damage that adds up overtime.

Also I always try to have Treads over Phase, and get Phase only when necessary


I find that hard to believe, the other team really threw the game or had super underfarmed carries if they let a 40 min rad/phase spectre wreck their team and get 6 slotted in 20 min, even more if their carry had an aegies.

Tell me how do u fight a farmed carry 40 min with only rad as spectre, in what matchup do u win any fight 1v1, let alone teamfight with aegies

invoker is the only hero i cant play in dota2. i mean i could play him in mid and win against most players by coldsnaping and sunstriking but beyond those 2 spells... hes like the only hero you have to sit down and memorize stuff to learn.


Same here. I played old dota pre invoker and now I dont wanna bother learning the hero. Tried it once and sucked major ass with him ( went 0-10 with him lol ). After that game i either swap if someone wanna or just repick it.

The problem with Invoker is that I tend to just stand in mid for 20 minutes for sunstrikes, but your lanes will most likely have nothing to set up sunstrikes in pubs

Hey, I just have a general question about Dota 2. What are some of the glitches in Dota 1 that were maintained and incorporated as part of the gameplay in Dota 2?
