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.

Does AA ult give vision or how did Invoker hit that good?

I finally came to the conclusion that russians should get their own server.
9 out of 10 times they refuse to speak english.
8 out of 10 times they drag games out just to get their 6 tier 3 items.
7 out of 10 times they dont know dota is a team game.


AA ult gives lasting vision for atleast 1-2 seconds after the ball impacts the target area. So since sing was running around in the area still for a bit after it landed it gave invo a rough area of where he was going since he saw him going towards the trees after the vision ended. Still, lol @ sing ^^

Anyone feel like Weaver is a bit underwhelming ?

I mean, yeah it's great because he can't die almost, but even with vanguard radiance and tread his damage ouput feels weak.

compare to morph, weaver is lack of anti pushing mechanic and much more squishy even if he is decently farmed. Morph is a much better pick compare to weaver in the current meta game. There has been some experiment around weaver where you take only 1 level in gemini attack and stat instead but nothing has been done on paper. I obs the NADL game last night when demon was streaming it and weaver just cant do shit against a pushing line up even though his quota is met. a couple of silent/disable plus a sentry ward completely shut him down.

A lot of people make the mistake of thinking its time to fight after they make radiance. Radiance is a farming item. For weaver you need a heart or manta before becoming super strong.


But with so much farm to do.. why not pick AM or spectre ? :/

weaver is really good in lane
not saying that necessarily makes him a good pick but he provides a lot of options in terms of laning

Well weavers benefits are that he has great mobility, especially in team fights, he can survive ganks early game, and he can take a shit load of damage late game when he has items. In spectres case, she is easier to gank. In AM's case, idk. Different heroes I guess. Where AM can take the brunt of spells late game, Weaver can do the same but is a little more susceptible to burst. I don't think weaver is as vulnerable to physical damage as AM.

there is no room for weaver in the current meta game. No matter why you are picking it, there will always be better replacements. There are some rare case i might pick up weaver due to some Dazzle DK combo but not really. Morphing/DK is currently insanely good as a carry slot in the current meta: hard to kill, scale well late game, anti push/pushing mechanic.

Which is weird because DK is almost never seen in the western scene atm. I don't understand that at all.

because people think NS/BM are better replacement in term of ganking/laning i guess. But DK is a great pusher-carry and pipe holder. The western meta is more about kill->push but DK could easily burst-push.

Yea, "catching" people is a lot harder in Chinese Dota, so they don't get heroes as often for that purpose.
I liked Dota before it was Mainstream.

Because turning and casting silence with BS takes longer than SK channeling ulti when you've been stunned.
