if Razor stole OD/Silencer damage until negative, does their orb attack also give 0 damage ?

their orb attack is pure and isnt affected by their base damage, so no.

What happens when you blink over / across Spirit Breaker right before he hits you with charge? (right in the direction where he is coming from and behind him)

Does he still hit you or will he make a u-turn and continue the charge?

I imagine he'll u-turn. I've done it a few times with Prophet's teleport.


When he turns around, is there a short period of no movement while the turn animation takes effect, or does he turn while moving backward?

he turns around at the same rate as he would when not charging. also, if you go literally across him with a skill such as storms ball lightning, the charge stops. probs a few more skills i cant think of off the top of my head, but there are skills which allow you to dodge the stun/damage by going through sb. timewalk is another example

I think you can do it with aliases (pretty much the same way people did smart-casting with aliases before Valve formally added it to the game) but it'd probably be somewhat clunky.

What should I do first night as NS if the ennemy team plays it smartly? They were grouped, behind towers and just played it very safe with minimal farming, I feel the answer is mates taking objectives but I can't control this in pubs. Damn the disruptor followed me everywhere and casted glimpse if I even tried anything, so with insane NS movement speed it was really effective.

Don't be afraid to farm during the first night. Carry a TP and a smoke. Remember that to play tight enough to be safe, the enemy team actually does have to sacrifice a lot, and that the Attack Speed from Hunter in the Night actually lets you farm very fast with items that give you stats (Treads, Drums, etc.).

followup question to that. If his health is above Ice Blast threshold with Borrowed time, and you deal enough damage (say with lina ulti or something) that he should have been below it, will he still heal up or die?

The shatter trigger checks at the same 0.1s intervals as the HP freeze trigger, while, again, the triggered heal applies on the same frame that the damage occurs. This means that he's been "healed" before the shatter trigger ever gets to check.


To further explain this, basically this is what happens as an example:

Abbadon gets hit with Level 1 Ice Blast and falls to 380HP (Out of total 1000).
Abbadon's HP is under 400, Borrowed Time activates.
Ice Blast damage ticks for 12.5 damage, Borrowed Time instead heals for 12.5 damage to 392.5.
Ice Blast checks HP, 0.1s ago Abbadon's HP was 380, it is currently 392.5. Ice Blast resets to 380.
Abbadon gets hit with Level 1 Laguna Blade for 337.5 damage, Borrowed Time instead heals for 337.5 damage to 717.5HP.
Ice Blast checks HP, 0.1s ago Abbadon's HP was 380, it is currently 717.5. Ice Blast resets HP to 380.

Edit: I screwed up. Fixed it now.


Isn't it still a little screwy (though fine for the example)? Isn't it essentially that Borrowed Time will trigger the heal during when you take the damage (both potentially before and after it) and will cover 2x the amount of damage taken (so 25 when Ice Blast Ticks) so that the net result is that by time you've taken the damage you've healed it up.

The distinction being that attacks for more life than your max life will still kill you (hence Culling Blade killing through Borrowed Time though Culling's killing blow also dispells debuffs I think so in DotA2 I don't know which is responsible for the death).


Yeah I think you're right on the actual mechanics, was just making more of a logic tree for an example.

Tbh it's pretty clever what they managed to do in WC3 map editor.

Axe kills anything if the target is under the threshold. There is not a single exception as far as I know.

If you don't know that yet, you probably aren't ready to start a team. Regardless of that, this may help you.

no offense but if you cant answer that question you shouldnt start a team. you will have no success as you wont know what youre doing at all. just stick to pubs and learn to play every hero and role in a free manner.
but to answer your question, the roles are carry support offlaner and mid. there should be a thread or two already about these roles and the 1-5 position system.

Well, they can make an in-game team and play TMM as much as they would like. I think that is a great way to learn dota, with friends. If you don't know about roles though don't waste your time just play for fun.
