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.

Might be less ugly if they messed with the colors.

Still will be ugly as me though.

It looks like they ran out of sets to put on Witch Doctor so they put one on Shadow Demon instead.

A lot of heroes have better attack animations in HoN.

Nothing wrong with Lina's attack animation. ;P


Best one for learning to LH with in my opinion. If you can learn to LH with Lina you can LH with ANYTHING.

What about Crystal Maiden?
Attack animation nearly as bad and slow, but Maiden has 8 damage less than Lina.


To come back to the topic I started on when rereading this thread, pings.
Anyone else use frequency of pings to communicate? For example I found it consistently effective to ping as quickly as I can for a second or two if I want to gank a lane or in some other way attack. I have yet to see encounter people that fail to react to this sign(be it either a "no, don't" or silent compliance).

The logic behind this is basically that spam pinging is obnoxious and gets the attention of even the most concentrated lasthitter. Just don't do it all the time.

Absolutely awesome combo though.

Imagine doing it with a blink dagger. Best initiation EVER! Blink in. Lassoo. Steal charge and charge away with your prize.

CM animation is nowhere near as bad as Lina though. Plus Lina has reasons to actually farm.


As for pings...its all contextual. If I want to show a rune or something I'll ping a couple of times near it or if I have time and am able to actual ping over to see it then I'll do that. I'll ping a ton on a particular spot or hero to try and get people to go there. Or I'll ping all over an area and maybe draw a circle around it to warn people away with a "care".

You just have to use some common sense. I had one guy on my team ages back that I was near mid lane radiant side, he was on the offlane radiant side, I ping all over the shop area as the dire side tries to sneak in there for a gank to draw his attention to the map. What does he do? Goes charging in. "omg why didn't you come I thought you wanted me to go in." When there was two of us...against five of them...

"Ah shit...Priest doesn't sound interesting enough."

"uhhhh....Shadow...Priest?"

"Demon..hmm...what kind of demon?"

"Shaman is pretty boring..."

"I need to make this Fiend sound DARK!"

That's basically how'd i'd approach naming heroes as a 14 year old
