It doesn't need to, because your main guy regens to full and then the illusions are unkillable by creeps anyway.

yah ..

does it work on illusions ? i have not noticed

no but that's not the point either lol
when you create illusions they're all at full health and they're a lot tankier with the static attribute bonuses

Loda is a pretty damn good Naga I'd say, not sure if EE is better then him.

Honestly, I think hes a pretty bad naga comparatively.

His micro is pretty bad - he really doesn't split his illusions very well, usually doesnt cut creeps well, etc etc, his decision making is decent, but really when I watch it I just get the impression he is carried by his teammates when he plays naga, rather than being the 1 man carry that naga usually is.

pajkatt is probably about loda-level of a naga.

He doesn't farm as well as EE but his decision making is top notch I feel.

My only memories of Loda naga are idle illusions when he could have taken rax, happened like 3x in 1 game or when he sent all his illusions on some support who just walked to the well and thus ended the push that he could have taken rax/won the game.

:crazy:

Really pointless anecdotes but I that's all I see in my head when I hear Loda Naga.

Jakiro is actually overpowered. I didn't believe it until I tried it.

yeah, that game was PL. Really though, just about the same thing as I notice about his Naga, inefficient illusion control. I mean he's not bad, he just plays it about as well/slightly worse that any professional gamer would be expected to play naga.

He's certainly no Meracle on the hero.

PL micro is super easy. If you've ever gotten into Platinum in SC2, you should be able to micro PL with zero effort. Naga could be a little more difficult, if you're last-hitting.

Yup. I've also never really gotten the hang of DOTA2 unit control. There's something about it that feels different than Blizzard unit control.

Lol, 2 0 4 1 is really funny to play. I got to play him solo safe lane in a 1v1. That Wraith King was the saddest player ever during the laning stage.

It think it has more to do with Warcraft 3 verses both Starcraft games (SC2 to a larger extent). In terms of pace, both Starcraft games are just faster games than Wc3 ever was. I just assume DotA 2 is trying to remain accurate with how Wc3 DotA feels

I think wc3 micro translates better in dota then sc2, because in wc3 u micro less pop armys with bigger units.

Nah, WC3 micro is easypeasy. Controls feel natural. I think it's an engine thing.

Probably but this discussion is entering familiar territory. A lot of league or especially Hon players will just be under the impression playing dota 2 for the first time thinking it's laggy or something in comparison.
