If you TP to a place just after another teammate has just TPed it will take much longer. The whole team being able to TP at the same time was too strong and made defending too easy I believe. | ||

It seems to me like it takes twice more times sometimes. it depends on the number of people teleporting, basically if only you are teleporting to a tower then you take 3 seconds, if two people tp, first person takes 3 seconds, second person waits for first person to tp then starts tping (i.e. 3+3= 6) and so on and so forth | ||

In DotA 1, as Broodmother you could just hand your Spiderlings to a support to let them jungle with them--but because there's no shared unit control in DotA 2 yet, I still have to micro the Spiderlings myself. | ||

I'm not sure how much they changed the DotA 2 from DotA 1. If they are still relevant for Dota 1 they should be good enough for Dota 2, the problem is that you may find a lot of old guides, outdated for both Dota 1 and Dota 2. The lack of some heroes and the small diferences in mechanics aren't really meaningful for a general guide for begginers. | ||

I'm by NO means good at all, but the splash and boat are super hard to get off successfully IMO. X Marks the Spot will help you some, but the times you want to use X are when people are running away so you/your team can get kills, using them to set up splash or the boat is not the best IMO. | ||

Is there any point in stacking creeps and not just killing them outright when you're there unless you're using like HotD and stacking ancients/large creeps while you farm elsewhere? The reason I ask is that I to play jungle Naix a lot and of course I'll pull creeps away at :50 for a stack but then kill them immediately after. Or I could just be dumb and you've been talking about with like hotd or just as a support stacking creeps for a carry | ||

Or I could just be dumb and you've been talking about with like hotd or just as a support stacking creeps for a carry You can farm faster if you pull them away at 0:50 and then come back to kill them right away, because you will get 2 camps worth out of 1 neut spot. The main problem with this is that you will take more damage because there are more creeps to fight. Heroes like Axe and Storm benefit from stacking like this a lot because of their aoe spells. Naix can benefit from it because you can often farm in a way that only 1 creep is hitting you. You can also stack if you're walking past a big camp that you know you can't kill at that time but might want to come back later in the game to kill once you are high enough level or have a skill like Infest. | ||

I think Dendi said you don't have to stack the stronger creep camps (centaurs) for your lane not to push since they'll manage to kill your creeps if you start denying them from 1/2 hp, but i haven't tried it. this is almost true, but it's actually quite hard to get that last creep killed for some heroes | ||
