WTF I thought euls was supposed to be able to activate on allies T_T

Thats pretty much the only reason i loved it. Like a slightly weaker disrupt, incredibly useful.
Can I still use it on myself?

Yes.

How many points (this season thus far) do you think one needs in Europe to be placed in GM? (I know it's done on mmr but a rough approximate would be very nice :D)

It's been impossible to do that for a long time now, I suspect you'll survive.

When was the time that you could use it on allies? I've been playing since 2006 and don't remember any point in time where it was possible.

If it counts for something, Meepo can also use it on his clones.

According to Merlini and Synderen there was a very small point at which you could use Eul's on allies. Maybe in pre patch test versions only. Icefrog quickly realized this was gamebreaking and reverted it.

Are you a HON player? You can use eul's on allies in that game according to people I've heard.

I used to play HoN before dota 2, so maybe thats where i remember it from. i never saw it as gamebreaking though seeing how it is/was not considered a problem in hon. it is a very double edged thing, it can save allies and set up enemies if you use it well, but if you send your carry or initiator flying in the wrong moment, it can easily cost you kills and fights. id like to see it implemented again for my part.

It was either when euls had charges or right after that, when it no longer built into sheep stick. It was one of the core item/skills that made the -disablehelp command necessary.

However, this was a long time ago, back in dota1. I don't think it was ever possible in dota2 or really early beta.

It was put in hon because when it was ported from dota1 it was that way. Unless its a completely new item or idea, most things in hon were at one point in dota. That said, it would be too good in dota2. Especially after the cost reductions. It rids of debuffs and sets up for lots of ultis and skills. There was also a bug where you could teleport scroll during euls. Now that was hilarious.

I faintly remember being able to Euls allies loong after it was split off from Guinsoo. I suspect it was a later change.

It's not listed as it's own change anywhere from 6.3x to now, so the only place it seems like it would have happened is as part of the 6.50 remake.

From the looks of it, the 6.50 remake couldn't self-target either--that functionality was added back in 6.60 according to here: http://www.playdota.com/forums/showthread.php?t=366682

This may seem like a QQ but it's not as this situation happens oh so often. How a carry without great escape mechanism can find farm versus his teammate NP who appears on every lane slightly unpushed and will make sure to keep every lane pushed with his ulti in case he can't reach it in time? You can grab a bit of gold in woods but this has happened so many times and I've won/lost many games because NP took way too much gold from his mates.

Edit : another question concerning NP, I've been very impressed by a NP with medallion as first item, his early ganks hurts 10x times more with this, do we ever see it in progames?

Question: Is OD actually that great of a mid outside of counter picking certain intelligence heroes? I find I can never control runes with him. Just played mid vs a TA and I got out harassed and always had the lane pushed up to my tower, which meant I had to last hit under tower for a lot of the time and could never contest runes without losing CS.

Pick a carry that can farm jungle camps quickly, or politely ask the NP to stop pushing safelane so you can farm it.

Yes, he really is.

Just put the TA in jail every time it's off cooldown (Skip orb btw). TA can't cast refraction with 13 mana and without refraction she can't out-lasthit your 80+ damage. Rune control doesn't mean much when her max mana doesn't even allow her to cast refraction regardless of bottle charges. If you notice she is pushing then spend extra time auto-attacking her creeps whenever there isn't a last-hit being contested.

TA is however a very strong mid so it's not like a complete blowout the way it is vs virtually every int hero.

PS: I know OD has bad range but TA has worse so you can abuse that too. She is super squishy without refraction up. She should die to ult at 6 as well (so long as she doesn't refract it ofc).

Yeah, and with the int you can steal from her, you could possibly get a slightly earlier orb to help push lane if she's pushing hard.

You need at least 2 levels in prison to really persecute the enemies intelligence and for it to last long enough to be a useful spell other than just int steal. Then you need every level possible in the mana aura so that you can spam your prison unendingly. And you need ult. So at level 7 you kinda need 2 prison 4 aura 1 ult. After that you can get orb I guess but you are past laning stage by that point (although as OD you kinda just farm a lane whenever your ult is on CD anyway).

OD's mediocre range is also more than made up for by his extremely impressive base stats--his level 1 stat total is the highest in the game, and his stat gains per level are tied for the 2nd highest. 5+ base armor is also quite rare for a ranged hero--Techies and Storm are the only other two ranged heroes to have 5+ base armor, and they have their own issues as solos. His ~57 base damage (on a hero that steals his prime stat no less) and 310 base MS are above-average as well.

He's in that class of heroes that are near permaban in tournament 1v1.

I still got outlaned from her having every rune tho. I know bottle crowing mitigates a lot of her harass but it's not something I like to rely on in all pick (that game we didnt have a flying couri till 13 minutes)
