EPTAlso, is there a place where I can know the timings when I should have certain items if I'm going to X strategy? I don't know how well I'm doing in my games because I don't know if the time I'm able to create an Aghanin is too late or if I'm okay for a beginner...

And no, Zeus is still the same as before, his play style hasn't changed except maybe the incorporation of Force Staff into some builds, I don't like Arcane Boots on him but it works just as well. There is a change to his Chain Lightning from before so you could or should level it from 1 over stats. Timings depend on effectiveness and the question you should always ask is if the item you are getting will be useful by the time you get it. Funnily enough, Aghs is one of those items where the timings for it are weird and highly variable. | ||

I never figured out why Russians valued Zeus as ban worthy until I saw them with it.

Yeah, I didn't mean changes in the hero, I actually saw someone mention an arcane ring, which I couldn't find, so I guess it was removed. I realize the Aghanin is kinda of weird, but it was just an example, I was more worried about some other items like Empty Bottle, arcane boots, etc | ||

It's a fair rule of thumb though. | ||

Store only has 2 sets (4) wards at a time, and the item is on a 6minute cooldown. Wards last 6 minutes as well. You can place all the wards you've saved up at once if you'd like, but usually it's 2-4 wards on the map at once for each team. You can get as many sentry (truesight) wards as you can afford though. http://www.playdota.com/items/observer-wards | ||

 Also He's very hard to control well(relative to other heroes), is made of paper early on, is EXTREMELY farm dependant and very easy to gank. | ||

I went with Sylla because he gives bad skill/effect outcome (like how good you are/ how good you do in equal skill enviroment) As I said its very personal, there are no bad heroes in dota, I might just not be the player Sylla needs to shine | ||

also LAN-f34r the towers in lol will always attack creeps in range before heros... however unlike in dota spells and attacks on an enemy hero will cause them to focus on you | ||
