range display only works in practice lobbies (with cheats I think) so it can't auto exec I assume.

Yeah comments should work.

A stupid man's report of what a clever man says can never be accurate, because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand.

Redeem code is for when you buy stuff that come with codes for hats.

Ah, my autoexec was in the wrong folder. Thx for helping me debug.

Nvm. Still not working.
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.

Because he needs to get into the fray to deal right click damage. He isnt inherently tanky enough to reliably run into a team. If you build glasscannon you'll just run in and die. Blademail is a relatively cheap item that both gives armor and a little bit of damage (both solid stats) on top of the active which allows him to be more aggressive without as much risk of just getting focused and dying. Skipping blademail is fine but if you skip it I'd say you'll likely need an early BKB.

Treads for the hp (good when you're gonna be the tanky Mekansm carrier on your team) or Phase to secure lasthits for Sadist so you can own most 1v1 lanes.

I think it's partly because he increases enemy damage with the silence and partly because when he uses his Rupture, most people have 2 options: TP or fight. If they fight you want blademail ready.

If an enemy hits you hard enough to kill you and themselves from blademail, you actually get the bloodbath heal proc before taking the fatal damage (usually enough to keep you alive). Basically, it makes it very difficult for low hp enemies to nuke you down with spells.

Also if you rupture someone it makes it much harder for them to manfight you

Cast times are based upon the base hero's cast point and back swing but certain spells have specific values independent of base hero.

Everything you need to know about cast point, cast backswing, cast delay with all the information organized nicely.

From just last page:

bind "F1" "+show_runetop" // Jump camera to top rune and back to hero
bind "F2" "+show_runebottom" // Jump camera to bottom rune and back to hero

// Jump camera to rune positions while pressing the keys and back to hero on release

alias "+show_runetop" "dota_camera_set_lookatpos -2287 1817" ///-2273.898682 1732.745483"
alias "-show_runetop" "dota_select_all; dota_select_all; +dota_camera_follow"

alias "+show_runebottom" "dota_camera_set_lookatpos 2960 -2353"
alias "-show_runebottom" "dota_select_all; dota_select_all; +dota_camera_follow"

Is there ever an excuse for a captain to pick Warlock in captains mode/draft. I feel like that hero is so bad.
