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.

it's really common to see warlocks going fatal bonds first, especially when laned against melee heroes

lvl 1 fatal bonds, if casted well, can do 150-200 damage right early in the game, it's crazy

if a fatal bonded creep takes damage > than its hit points is e damage based on the total amount it received or e hitpoints lost. also is damage calculated before or after reduction.

Why is dk considered a top pick? Or is he not anymore? I don't know if I'm just doing something wrong but I can't find anyway to dominate with him like I can with other strength semi-carries.

DK is more of a hard carry. Get a helm and stack ancients and farm with his splash dragon and he can get his core pretty quickly. plus he is pretty hard to gank due to natural tankiness and can contribute to ganks in his lane with a stun.

I think Dk is strong mainly cuz he is a range str carry with free splash that actually life steals.

I feel that the current metagame doesn't include him very much unfortunately.

Anyone feel like panda's clap animation makes it look/feel way bigger than dota1?

Also fuck the repick game crash bug. I get shitty randoms most of the time [ like huskar 3 games in a row ] and its a pain where I have like 500 gold cuz after I force close dota I can't re-pick as usual.

Does feel a bit bigger than in Dota 1 but in Dota 1 it's AOE feels greater than the animation indicates to me. The pands are more confusing for me I didn't know what was happening when Panda ult was used, and with all that crap flying around couldn't see if what i was hitting was a panda or a hero.

After the last few patches it felt like my game has been taking forever to load after the steam valve-head-man logo appears, specifically being stuck on the red dota 2 sign page after that. Before used to be really fast loads, now its like a minute sometimes. Has this happened to anyone else?

You could try setting -novid in your launch options.

Hmm I will try that out, although it mainly is the red screen with the dota 2 logo that takes a year to load, and it only started happening recently.
