Doesn't matter, i don't like medallion at all for example on Lycan and don't value Roshan as much as Ursa values it for example. Focus on towers, if towers are gone, then yep, Roshan choice is legit. But i play only lane Lycan, i assume that jungler is basing on Roshan as high experience boost. But afaik, you go vladmirs-medallion, even skipping pt sometimes and dive pit in smoke or asking someone to check the vision.
You forgot the easiest pubstomp midhero in the game: Viper

No medallion = long time to kill rosh. If you see an opportunity to do rosh when you only have vlads (entire enemy team is pushing top tower or something), go for it. If you're scared people are gonna find you, then you want medallion to kill rosh as fast as possible.

So which skills keep their long cast time when stolen by Rubick? So far I can only think of Requiem and teleport.

Rubick's cast time is always 0.1. There are spells however that have a cast delay which is actually separate from the spell's cast time. Requiem, teleport, assassinate, poof and netherstrike. Rubick will still have the cast delay from all these spells.
Edit: Should also note that these spells take the user's cast time + the cast delay to execute. Since Rubick's cast time of 0.1 is often less than that of the spell's original owner, Rubick often does still cast these spells faster than the original user does. It's just that he cannot ignore the cast delay on each of these spells.

Oh I see, didn't realise there was a distinction between the two

Is my assumption that Culling Blade kills through Shallow Grave correct?

Guys, does anyone have a link to a Dota 2 Pro Highlight Game where the Dire team was hiding the woods near the Tier 1 Radiant Tower (which was gone btw) and then disruptor casts his third skill and ulti and gets everyone from the radiant inside and then the dire proceeds to perfectly wipe the radiant?
I've been looking around for it but I can't find it.

There are actually spells that are *supposed* to use the original user's cast time and not Rubick's (e.g. all Blinks are supposed to do this), but they are bugged in DotA 2 to use Rubick's incorrectly. So for DotA 2, what you said is correct.

Hi i'm not sure if this belongs here but;
What are some good late/mid game items for naga siren carry? (Specifically solo mid carry).
Also for which roles should i get midas and when is the appropriate time to? Like I don't often see solo mid players get a quick midas, more so off lane carrys? I could be wrong but either way my question stands.

why isn't ogre mage used?
I've been playing cd/cm for a few weeks; and ogre mage never seems to be used for anything.
|
I see him somewhat frequently as the third support of a trilane, but he doesn't really fit anywhere else in the game, as far as I can see. It isn't really because he's a weak hero, but he is pretty hard to fit in a lane.
|
Ogre is a melee support. The only melee support that are being played are either team fight aoe (ES/SK) or extreme support (roof/abaddon). Ogre falls into the same slot as CM/Lina but is melee. Or the same slot as beastmaster, but don't have good farming or anti bkb ulti.
I think one way to make him viable would be that the slow hits through BKB after ulti is skilled. A large aoe slow with short cooldown that goes through BKB wouldn't break him in pubs but would make him good in CMs.

he's not bad but there are better supports

I dunno if he's meant to be "viable". His sound effect is a slot machine for a reason, he isn't around to be a reliable and consistent hero.
