worst hotkey problem is when "Center camera on hero on respawn" turns itself off, you only notice when you cancel your first TP but the option is so fucking hard to find that you give up looking for it then only remember again when you cancel your next TP

If you're clicking on the ground somewhere with quick-cast not expecting your camera to move upon your hero respawning

Yeah that one has been dogging me for ages. If you TP next to your own hero I guess it isn't technically "cancelling" but it's definitely a wasted TP.

EDIT: oh right he said the option turns off. idk. I can't imagine why anyone would want it on past their first 3 games.

Played a bit on another person's account that has 5k hours of Dota played and is rated ~5k. He had that setting on, might have been a problem with the auto loading settings on another computer but don't think it was. It was one of the first things I tried to find an autoexec for when switching from WC3 (don't think it was in menu at start) since it is a very bad setting that has minimal advantages. Think I had 3 games in the first 5 where I tp:ed in fountain instead of to a tower.

usually small pull camps have 3 creeps, i start to pull the hard camp when there are 2 creeps left with 1 creep half hp. by the time you get to the small camp, you can help kill the remaining small creep if its alive and the wave will aggro to the pulled hard camp

Oh yes i understand -how- to pull them, but I just need more practice doing it. I was just wondering if there was a faster way of practicing it in a lobby rather than waiting a minute plus for the pulls, if that makes sense

i'm sure people can make customs for that. however, i have no clue on how you'd publish the practice maps.

-spawncreeps
-spawnneutrals
Get a level 1 hero, drop a Dagon next to the spawns, -wtf to kill shit off and -unwtf to go back to "let's actually try this" so mobs won't spam abilities and stuff.

to kill any leftover creeps after you finish your pull

Can you use shadow demon's ability disruption on an allied BKB target? you can't, right?
say for instance your sven is about to get dueled (LC) and notices in time and bkbs, he cannot be saved by disruption, correct?

Also a sven with god's strength will have illusions created without god's strength? i've always been a little confused by disruption illusions but i'm just assuming their straight up illusions like ones created with manta but with a higher base damage modifier.

edit: okay i've tested it in demo,
no to the first
and second, disrupt illu. do not spawn with god's str buff so agi illusions, namely morph's, are still king.

How do you bring up a list or something of the games you've selected to be notified of (when the replay is available).
The option is "Replay Pending - Notify me when the Replay of this game becomes available"
Will it just be under "Saved to watch later" under replays? i've selected the option for quite some games but they don't seem to go under that category so far.

how about support razor?

i've never seem him do particular well with farm and his abilities seem to scale without farm

i'm asking coz he just got picked to sort of counter an axe and i'm like, well they could still pick a carry ontop of that and razor could shift down to pos 4 or something?

what do u think

well lets see razor has:
no disable/slow/silence
no save
abilities require that he be in the middle of fights

no reason to ever use him as a support

It doesn't work at all because all of his abilities require him to be farmed enough to stay alive and are pretty weak without levels. His drain doesn't do much work if he dies instantly, unstable current is reliant on being able to tank multiple single target skills, his ult requires him to stand next to targets, and plasma field is just a pretty average nuke. He's pretty worthless without either farm or levels. He can be run as the 2nd/3rd core in a strategy (as he doesn't need as MUCH farm as a true hard carry), but he's fundamentally unsuited to be a support.
