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.

Most of the mechanics stuff I post is within the bounds of what a PlayDota Gameplay Mechanics forum regular could tell you. My knowledge of WC3 map-making and triggers is actually probably a lot less than most of them tbh. I was never even a poster there, I just lurked that forum and read some of the stickied articles.

Once JASS became the standard for spells I absolutely lost any comprehension of the mechanics of those spells.

Yeah, their mechanics forum really owns. Shame the rest of the forum is just joinDOTA level (although on PD they typically fanboy SEA and Chinese teams from 3 years back instead of [A] and Na'Vi). Though, the strat forum is occasionally interesting if you know which posters to look for (there's like 5 posters that give solid advice (such as Kenshiro) or interesting ideas (DeadlyKha comes to mind :D)

strong offlaner, strong mid, wisp+ck and one other support or like a natures prophet. wisp+ck with competent other lanes just fucking wrecks if you have a good wisp player.

It's even simpler. Just pick a strong hero for every role and you win.

Random tangent: Was reading a few pages back and saw a "DK" comment.

Confuses the hell out of me sometimes whether people mean "Team DK", "Dragon Knight" or "David Kim". >_>

I always assumed Team DK stood for Team Donkey Kong....

They're the ones that change the hero icon / skills and animations n stuff. Apparently the Lina Fiery Soul one is the only one atm? according to wiki at least.
