I think probably the best thing so far I have seen is how Valve is giving us the chance to see these vods and such, and still be able to hear the commentators. Although not al of the videos worked, the oneI tried had I think four commentators on it (including Tobi). Valves integration to the E-sport communty with regards to DotA 2 has been phenomenal thus far and I cannot wait to see how far it can go.
I think Blizzard can get some good insight from Valve; I hate to look down on Blizzard but shared replay viewing... need I say more?

good idea not to play.
time to play dota Got the 'thank you' message aswell :D Just asking, if a ns cast darkness, and rubick steals it and casts it 10sec later, does it stack ?

I have played Bane (both farming & support roles) going 1 in Nightmare then stats (skipping Enfeeble until later) for a while and it's never felt like I ever needed extra duration on Nightmare. Yet in pro games it's always maxed (I think some people may get 1 or 2 level of stats early but they do end up maxing Nightmare).
What is the normal item skill build for rubick? im guessing max fade bolt then stun then aura? Items - bootle arcanes force staff sheep? Or is something else needed?
Wow, this is so generous of Valve. If anyone in the game has an announcer pack, you can choose to have it as your own for that game! And if you don't want to, you can always listen to the default announcer only. I totally did not expect this.

the other 4 i was playing with have crappy mmr. for the game, you shouldve had an easier time middle than you played it out, though im not sure how much better it wouldve been for you since your team wasnt very good
My MMR seems to work half decent for the last week.. Well, actually i'm winning a little to much but there were next to no full "meltdown-players" and no totally dominatin ones either (i play mostly Dark Seer, DProphet... So i normally don't carry a game on my own... Except when DP gets so overfed that no one can kill you, really fun times).
I have the same thing. While I still have my fair share of bad players, they don't go 0/10 so much - they just feed a little or get butterfly instead of manta (haven't had a razor going vlads for a while...).

I had a practice game and he doesn't seem that mana hungry. With arcanes and bottle i seemed to be able to spam mid game all I want. 2shoting creepwaves is fun

Hey I opened a chest and I got a 3 day battlemodifier aswell as a Strange Modifer : Towers Destroyed, from reading the tooltip I understand that I can "bind" it to an item for it to track Tower Kill. just to be sure I understand correctly.

Yes but apparently it has to be a strange item in the first place.

Does it replace the old counter?
According to CyborgMatt's blog, it should add an additional stat tracked by the strange.
EPT
And skill build you got right I think![[image loading]](http://dota2.cyborgmatt.com/Dota2_Announcers.jpg)
