Found some major bugs so far like sandstorm on sk not hurting neutrals [ centaurs ], alt tab causing the ' i ' key to not work for me and 2 other confirmed people. Also had a game with a teammate who said he could see invis weaver, and I think the first game i ever played I saw juggernaught's sword even with invis rune.
The Sand King sandstorm bug was introduced, as the neutral AI pre-TI didn't run when they were under attack by the sandstorm. Feedback made them remove damage against neutrals. I guess they forgot to reintroduce it and fix the bug.
Don't know about the others :D Weird you can't access forums.

i can't either. i registered before having the beta, but now that i have it the account that i created doesn't allow me to confirm my steam account whatsoever. i pm'd the admins of the forum because of this.

Are you playing nowadays or still school? T.T
I played some games in china, it's not that bad. Up to 300ms is playable in dota2!!
I know about the top tier heroes, and more specifically, the ones that are considered "best." But is there an opposite? Who are the worst heroes of Dota?

Again, the answer isn't that easy. The heroes that you/ others consider "best" are heroes that just have a good synergy with almost any other hero in your team(they are mostly characterized by good disables/ slows/ escape mechanisms/ carry potential). However, there are heroes that are very very situational or need to be played in a very special way to succeed and therefore could be considered "worst". The heroes that I'd define like that would be Techies, Barathrum, Luna and maybe Terrorblade(these are pretty much the only heroes that weren't used in competitive games over many versions).
But still, there have been games that were won by the said heroes because the teamplay/ team compilation/ individual skill of the player just fit the requirements the hero needed.
What some people might consider best, some others might consider them "gay" heroes to play with. Namely Leviathan.
In a game as complex as dota/dota2, you can say that the best heroes are the most succesful heroes in it's role such as Spectre when it comes to hard carrying or Rhasta when it comes to disabling/pushing.

A farmed Luna is scary especially now that she can use manta. High MS, powerful skills, awesome damage, high stats gain makes her tough to deal with in the late game.

Thanks.
For news probally GosuGamers.net. PlayDota forums are pretty active as well, but you won't find a place like TL, it's pretty unique.
None of those are actually good. GosuGamers does have an awesome replay section and Playdota is not a good forum imho.
Gosugamers best for live information, playdota best for game information, and various other forums (including here) to talk about it.
pretty much. i wish gosugamers would make their site better, it's awful, same with the old MYM. or some other site take over english dota coverage. maybe i'm just too spoiled by TL's clean looks but everything on there is ultra cluttered and the important links dont stand out

New patch added this.
- Added a new function (defaulted to Space Bar) that moves the camera to the last pinged location (if you press it again afterwards it goes back to your hero).
