Regarding Rubick's Spell Steal:

If you steal a spell, it will always follow the cooldown from when YOU casted it. Stealing another spell then re-stealing the original spell will do nothing to the cooldown. You will still be unable to use it until the cooldown of the first time you used it expires.. If that was viable, then and only then can Rubick be called OP/imbalanced.

Quick one about playing Windrunner. Basically I've been flamed for not standing and dying in a few team fights. Situation is generally this: we engage 3v3, 2v2 in the enemy jungle, Our side is usually 75%hp and I have about 10% mana. Our other team mates are dead / backing for heals. Rest of the other team is missing. I attempt a shackle (usually getting at least one to a tree) and land a powershot. I generally then get rushed and therefore back off and usually don't stop since I now have no mana. Usually the rest of the enemy team will make it a 3v5, at which point i get the hell outta dodge.

Is that a good situation to run? Or is it better stand and try to go 1-3 instead of 0-2 or 0-1?

There isn't a black and white answer to that situation. You have to consider how much you're going to lose by dying compared to how much they're going to gain. As a general rule it is probably safer to run, but there are certainly some situations where it's better to go for trades like ending sprees or if it will shut down their push and give your team some time to recover from the deficit.

Interdasting. Apparently if you steal Lycan's ult you get a unique animation for that so I was wondering

What are the heroes that are left out of 6.74 Captains Mode? I can't seem to find any listings on the internet and I know this is a DOTA 2 forum but someone has to know.

To my knowledge it's the new heroes released in December and I can't find when Rubick etc. were added into CM sigh. I think it's just those 4 heroes and Wisp/Phoenix but not sure, will have to go load up war3.

Hmm, the only thing I remember is that Rubick, Wisp and Disruptor were added to CM in 6.74. Treant, Soul Keeper and Tuskkar were added in 6.73 which is strange since Treant and Soul Keeper were added a pretty while back.

I think I heard somewhere that if you destroy items you have a small chance of receiving a very rare item.
Does anyone know if thats true for chests?
