I've played on and off with friends, but don't know the heroes, what to buy etc. Well I'm here to learn and have a good time. GL HF Edit: or is everybody playing HoN? | ||

Apparently, Barbed Armor/bladmail works against towers. What makes this really interesting is that the damage returned is pure, so invincibility doesn't matter. If glyph's on, the tower still damages itself by attacking you. You can truly backdoor (skip towers) doing this. Since blademail's active only lasts 5 seconds, you can't do it for very long, but long enough to do your damage before anyone can tp there to stop you. Doubt this'd be super useful in a close game since you'd be missing out on xp to do a little damage to a tower you shouldn't be damaging, but it might be fun to pull off in a really lopsided pub just to force ragequits. Not that I condone griefing with bugs.... Anyway, doing it with Armadon or Electrician (if they skill their damage reduction skills first) seems the most viable. Wildsoul's bear has no mana, so you can't use that, though otherwise that'd be the perfect option. Edit: actually, I take that last bit back... Booboo is the best option. You can put any item that gives mana on the bear and he'll have mana to cast barbed armor with (just no regen). So, yeah, farm in lane while walking your bear around towers. Ultralame to the max! | ||

He has no natural regen, but you can give him arcane ring or just walk him to the fountain when he runs outta mana. I wonder if you can take out the third tower with booboo and armor, and then use your whole team to backdoor the raxes, then let the megacreeps push the lanes. Edit: Tested. The answer is yes, and it takes booboo 4 barbed armor wanderings around the tower to kill it. I'm not sure I'm evil enough to do this in game, though. If anyone else is, post your stories of victory/defeat.  | ||

Because DotA/HoN isn't really spectator friendly? You can probably run commercials in some games and you still wouldn't miss any of the action. Then you got 3 lanes to watch for, action can occur simultaneously in any or all of the 3 lanes, early game stuff is pretty boring to watch and mid game too if the game goes in a certain animal's way. | ||

I suppose one can say the same thing about SC? It's kind of boring in the beginning, but once it gets going, you're going to have to jump all around the map to catch all the action. You're gonna have big battles, drops, and expos, counters, and the like to watch out for. And people turtle in SC too... and yet people still watch it. I just want to see some good dota, I don't mind a couple of minutes of last-hitting and denying before things pick up. | ||
