Doesn't double clicking on items work exactly the same way in Dota 1? I'm pretty sure that was added in a reasonably recent patch. I believe doing the same to skills was uncodable though, so that's new to Dota 2.

simply double click the scroll. If u have your items bound to a key, then double tap the key. For me it is "4" so i just tap "4" twice.


In fact it works for many items.

Some examples are

double tap consumable = cast on self
double tap dagger = blink towards base
double tap force staff = cast on self etc


U have to allow the option in your console tho. Open the menu and go to control their a box that say double clicking on an item cast the item on you

It depends where you're searching I guess. I always search USW/USE, and recently I haven't had to wait more than 2 minutes at the worst.

if you double tap dagger, it goes to the location where you picked it up; atleast thats how it is in dota 1

You wait for Valve to add account levels to the game.

They had it earlier in the beta but disabled it after they started handing out invite waves.

It was used for a bit during pre-International beta, which is why you'll see a few of the players from the international with some experience. It's been reomved for a longass time, longer than since they've been handing out invites, longer than since the NDA was removed.

What is considered godly farm during, say, the first 10-15 minutes? And maybe for 20/30/40 minutes? I'm trying to work on getting better in the laning phase, and wondered what a good cs score for a baddy to shoot for would be. Assume I have no dedicated support, and so will get harassed a bit, plus my terrible teamate will probably be trying to last hit with VS or something retarded.

Considering you are playing a carry hero:
1-2 creeps per minute - youre playing support or failing, 3 creeps a minute is acceptable, 4 creeps a minute is decent, 5 creeps a minute is good, 6 creeps a minute is awesome. Anything above and you might think about replacing link, mushi or loda. Note that these numbers are for lane creeps and get higher the longer the game goes as more creeps spawn every few minutes. If you get 60 Creeps in 10 minutes you are doing very well, 120+ for 20 minutes. Anything above is pretty hard to say. Note that neutral creeps give a bit less gold than lane creeps in average but there are of course more of them.

Depends what position you're playing. Godly pro-tier farm is every creep, every wave = 8cs/min(more as game progresses).

Hard Carry in a trilane: ~6 or 7 cs/min (or 60 by minute 10, 120+ by 20, etc) or nearly every creep every creep wave.

As a solo vs solo, aim for 5cs/min with some denies thrown in.

If you're playing a ganker/roamer, you can be getting 6cs/min now, and 0cs later, and as long as your ganks are successful, you should be fine.

Support: The leftovers, or none.

Why isn't Huskar picked in any pro matches? Is there a really good counter to him or something?

Pros:
Enormous DPS when low health
Very strong with armlet
Ranged
Not reliant on mana

Cons:
When in low health high DPS phase nukes rip him a new one
No AoE whatsoever
No escape
Ult knocks out a good amount of his own hp (both a pro and a con)
Needs to reduce his own hp to do good damage
EXTREMELY RELIANT ON HIS AUTOATTACK (I'm looking at you halberd)

The counter is called 2 people and stuns. He is great DPS, early -> mid game. Late game other carries dominates him. He is basically a ganker that needs farm in order to not die while ganking. Defining him as a ganker you face the next problem, he has no way to stun/silence and thus no way to kill the enemy carries.

Is there a way to quick sell in dota2? I can't find any option to do so and it's really annoying not having a bind.

"Holding now spotlights your hero." What does that mean in patch notes?

Oh and nice if they finally fixed it so you can juke somebody.
