CSGO MM is down, I'm guessing that might have something to do with Dota 2 being down too.

It would have to be changed, because before it was a passive, the effects were based on the Mountain Giant War Club skill, while afterwards they were just permanent changes to the unit.

I'm not sure how that entails non-Manta illusions behaving differently from Manta illusions.


Manta illusions are based on mirror image whereas the illusion rune is based on rod of illusion. Mirror image purges so the unit would lose the buff granting the tree. Rod of illusion doesn't purge so the tree would be kept.

Now that grow is a passive this is irreverent though as there is nothing to purge.

Interesting. Didn't know that Mountain Giant's War Club is purge-able.

It actually isn't. The current grow transforms to change the animation and model so I'm gonna assume that the old version just doesn't work like Yoshi- remembers. Rod of illusion doesn't preserve war club trees and if it was transformation it wouldn't be removed by manta.

Does it piss anyone else off when people use MMO terms in dota? One of my irl friends that I play quite often with used to play WOW a lot and he always calls skills talents, summons (necro, treants) pets, when he goes fighting he says "I'm going pvp", etc. It's so fucking annoying, I don't even know why.

Why would he even call skills talents. WoW has skills and they're called abilities, lol.

I've heard some Chinese commentators use the MMO term "PK" though.
