weird thing is, he had casted echo slam right beforehand... and i KNOW he didn't use fissure before that, so.. weird?
Yeah, it shouldn't be happening, but it is fun to throw out two fissures. And I had the same problem with a Tide's ult, it kept just giving me Gush instead. I just watched a game where a Windrunner was whining because the rubick on the other team was copying his allied Pudge's hook, so whenever Pudge just missed, Rubick would follow up and nab the hook. So funny.

Anyone else really pumped for these changes? Basically valve will run a test tournament the defense 2 fully supported ingame. You will be able to buy a 5 $ pass which will allow you to download the replays of all games. Also they plan on implementing sponsor elements into the game.

I'm buying one ticket. Five bucks to have access to all the replays? I'm totally sold on this deal.

Hell yeah!
It is also a good incentive for valve to improve dotatv! (fix the lag)

Looking forward to seeing the new players' (Who haven't played dota1) opinion on Fade Bolt...

300 dmg to all units it hits tho, think its up to about 5 units, it's quite powerful in teamfights
the team features that they announced also sound awesome, btw. i love the little team flags and the team logo at each fountain

Though actually I haven't played DotA after those nerfs so maybe it's not as bad now <_<

Yeah prenerf fadebolt was utterly retarded. Post nerf it's still retarded but as long as you don't let him control all the runes you should be able to handle it. Bring lots of consumables.

There is no cap on the amount of units Fade Bolt can hit. Damage is reduced by 5% (I think) per target and if there is no target within 400 (or 500?) range the bounces stop.
It is the damage reduction that is annoying for Fade Bolt when solo mid, but he hasn't seen too much use in Dota 1 yet. I think the main concern is he is quite squishy and you don't have a proper ultimate as such.

Uh oh announcer packs are coming :O
|
Yeah luckily he took a big dive in use after the mana cost increase on fade bolt. No longer autowin mid
