You don't really need people to communicate in dota games. Just use ping/chatwheel commands. And basic stuff like go rosh/push tower everyone understands.

Yes communication is important, but not in pubs where you're basically gambling if you're relying on people to listen to you.
You must gather your party before venturing forth.

honestly learning to communicate all the movements you want from your teammates through pings and chatwheel is probably the best, since some people (like me) really fucking hate certain types of voices talking to me, and you probably shouldn't be typing unless you're dead (though i still type a lot), since like, even if it's a dead moment in your lane, you could be looking around the map and thinking about the rest of the game instead of taking both hands to type

1. I noticed people were able to use smart pings like "missing bottom". I know you can press y for a small chat wheel, and alt click to specify a specific champ missing, but where are all the other smart pings?
Nvm, they are custom.

2. About TA: What items other than Radiance help to remove her refraction faster? Does diffusal blade count as two sources of damage? I don't think orb of venom can trigger it. I often feel Radiance is hard to build.
I know orb of venom does too little damage.

Just checked in bot game, diffusal does not break refraction faster.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

2. manaburn is 1 source of damage in dota1, idk about dota2 but probably still only 1 source
bfury, manta, necro3, mjol all help remove refraction charges
i believe blademail works as well
melee bash did in dota1 (magic damage, physical stun), but i think that's bugged in dota2. not really sure though

but u actually want to buy a ghost scepter and/or force staff

You can just purge the refraction off with diffusal though

No you can't. It shows up as unpurgable here:

I was playing Faceless Void that game. I don't think BFury would have hit her since she was standing alone in my ult most of the time. Is that how it works? Manta is a good idea though. Thanks!

Not to mention that you can't guarantee that people speak your language.

bfury actually sucks at it but theyre separate damage instances so if you stack like 3 of them you'll remove 3 refraction charges per cleave

there's a long answer but this is a SQSA thread, the simple answer is that you only need his ulti to win team fights.

Reliable blink stun initiation. Killing him only hurts your own team. Usually picked together with a Mjolnir hero so he can get the mjolnir buff.

Only way to disable double click to blink is to disable all double click self casts.

Can't do double click to suicide either

Can you play against bots without an internet connection? I can load up steam in offline mode and get into Dota2 but cannot get a game to load up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know the Training mode works without an internet connection, and a Limited Heroes bot game is one of the training maps. So you should be able to.

(EDIT: confirmed; starting a bot match through the training tab works while offline)
