If Phantom Assassin has a Crystalys, am I correct in understanding:

1) If Coup procs PRD does NOT adjust for Cryst because it never rolled
2) If Cryst procs PRD DOES adjust for Coup because it rolled and failed
3) If neither procs, PRD adjusts for both

(And I assume this is the way it works with any procs that have "if fails" secondary rolls)

PRD for stacking crit is super complicated and different in DotA 2 and DotA 1. There's a super old dev forum post about it that I don't want to dig up.

The short of it is that PRD is kind of always rolled and whether or not it increments/resets is kind of weird.

EDIT: I found the post. It's not as complicated as I remembered, but it's annoying to explain. So if you actually want to figure it out when it's basically not relevant to any situation you should care about and are comfortable reading through C++ simulation code, feel free: http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=95539&page=4&p=641817&viewfull=1#post641817

There is no triggered healing in Dota2
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Triggered healing is used to heal your hero before or after an attack, or both. This is used instead of dodge and immunity in dota 1 because of engine limitations, ie: instead of dodging 400dmg with void you heal 200, take 400 dmg, and heal another 200 (So you wont die or heal up more than your max hp and take dmg anyways. This is why in dota 1 you can kill a void with a high enough dmg, say laguna blade, even if backtrack procs, simply because the engine can't heal him more than max hp, and you can't heal him after he reaches 0 as he's dead).

In dota 2, they don't need to use this because they can just code in the actual ability instead (in this case: dodge).

What this has to do with maledict I have no idea.

It probably would count the damage that got trigger healed in dota 1 but in dota 2 it's all dodged so it wouldn't count.

what hero to climb in MMR currently? this patch is so weird. i dropped 400 mmr over the last week, now 4200.
mid TA, Brew were my go-to heroes for a long time. but now if the enemy picks PA/Spectre+other cores i'll always lose if the game goes 30min+.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I forget about this every time until I play Chen or someone similar. It makes me hate playing heroes with extra units. If I don't use hotkeys for my units exclusively, I feel so handicapped.

Matchmaking games used to be divided into normal / high / very high games in the Dota 2 client, and players were able to view in their match history what bracket a specific game was in. Valve has since removed that feature from the client, but third parties such as Dotabuff can infer the bracket of the game based on the information they have on the players in said game.

I'm not sure on the breakpoint between normal and high skill brackets, but the breakpoint between high and very high matches is assumed to be around 3,600 ranked mmr.

Think of it like leagues in LoL or Sc2 - they're just names for divisions, and not really meaningful beyond that.

How do I stay in lane mid as brew vs necrophos? Aggression plus heartstopper kept forcing me out. I ferried extra tangos out for more regen but it didn't help much.

Any solutions welcome, though keep in mind that in the trench where I play you don't know what you're laning against when you buy your first items (I went tango, 3 branches and stout shield).
Lecture me some more on how to play please; I need help.

you went the right starting items. punch on with him at lvls 1-3. you have better attack, more hp, stout shield and better nuke (dmg+slow). youll get your bottle out first because you should be dominating the last hits and you can bully him really well. if you get a haste or a dd you can kill him at lvl 5, otherwise just wait till lvl 6 and clap ulti him

I'm definitely not playing enough ranked if my mmr is 2.9k and I'm playing in very high games about half the time according to dotabuff...
