read up on what sn0 said, he gave you advice for your support and for what happens if you're getting xp and whatnot. if you're dual laning, you can absolutely push the equilibrium bc you're able to get up to the wave and farm. if you're not, your support needs to go elsewhere bc you're not getting farm and you're splitting xp.

Has anyone noticed the gold kill text in the chat for when you kill someone not always being correct? I often see it much lower than what I actually get, or I think I do. But I'm not usually keeping an exact tab on current gold so I'm not sure if it's just me being crazy.

i think its because the assist gold component isnt included (the part that depends on the networth difference between teams)

but im probably wrong

No, that's correct. The text doesn't include the area gold.

That was particularly problematic when the rubberband was a big deal, because only like 1/4 of the gold change would be shown to the player feeding.

projectile 2 doesn't proc overload because the overload charge was already used by projectile 1
Heaven's Halberd is the most criminally underbought item in Dota. Together we can stop this.

projectile 2 doesn't proc overload because the overload charge was already used by projectile 1

so it only counts on a hit? what if the attack misses does the second attack that doesnt miss then get the overload charge?
basically is there any situation where the second attack would get the overload?

im pretty sure the second attack would get the overload in that situation.

I mean if your goal is for the second one to proc it you just use remnant after the first one has hit...

There's no situation where you would get a single overload charge to proc on both.

overload charge is not attached to a projectile, it's attached to the hero and spent on projectile hit
only the first one would trigger it

I *love* using WSAD for camera control, but things get tight when I need control groups, abilities, and items. When I play someone like Tinker I often end up with items on B and N that are very hard to use.

Are there popular key configurations that use WADS camera control that I can look at / copy?

There may be a reason for that

put simply, its a poor control scheme so nobody looking to post an "optimal" control scheme considers it. Hence you get to do your own optimization.

I never played Dota1 and recently learned that Winter Wyvern, Legion Commander, etc were in Dota1 and ported to Dota2.

Are there any heroes that are original to Dota2?
Are there more heroes in Dota1 yet to be introduced to Dota2? I think I've heard Pit Fiend as one
Is Dota1 still receiving updates and new heroes?

Yes, Pit lord (likely will be called "Abyssal Underlord" in Dota 2 due to name ownership reasons) and Arc Warden. Thats it IIRC.

Yes, although Balance updates (versions like 6.85b etc) now come to dota 2 before Dota 1 and Dota 1 hasn't had a new hero in quite a while. There was a "monkey king" easter egg in a somewhat recent dota 1 patch that usually preceeds the release of a new hero but he isn't out yet in Dota 1 afaik.
