Good to know. What are the mechanics behind the damage dealt in denying? I've noticed it doesn't apply certain things (doesn't seem to apply Luna's aura, doesn't apply quelling blade) but I'm not sure what damages it does/doesn't include. Anyone know? | ||

It's to do with the number of targets around them, right? They don't ever cast abilities if you're solo jungling (thank goodness), but if you pull or have a chen troll that summons too many skeletons, they seem to. What's the actual metric? And is it still random or do they cast them asap if there's enough units? | ||

Asap if there are enough units, pretty sure it is 3 in their range for everything (ursa/centaur/satyr) but for satyrs they will blast if there are 2 close together and the 3rd is way off to the side somewhere. Trolls will sometimes not spawn their little bros for some reason, if anyone has insight into why they do that that would be cool to know. I think those are the only ones that cast spells on you... but they still have to use their cast points ^^ | ||

The answer as to why is probably that Valve hard-coded it and never got around to fixing it yet because it's not high priority.

It's hard enough finding people to play with who aren't drooling morons; let alone finding people who can teach a trilane. Arranged games. Trilaning in pubs is pretty much a gamble on whether your carry player is even good enough at the game to be worth freefarming. Nobody wants to put all their chance of winning on a random like that, so they don't do it in pubs. | ||

To me it seems like if he's standing still makes a difference and also whether or not he has to change targets. | ||

I don't recall ever seeing him not zombify at least one of his buddies. | ||
