While this thread is labeled "DotA2", this is in fact a community thread first. Many of the users in the TL LoL subforum have been playing as friends for over a year now, so it makes logical sense that they would want to play other games together.

Do not compare DotA2 to LoL, you will get banned.

TL LoL veterans know what is expected. Newcomers be warned.

well, i watched some dota 2 and i have to say the game looks pretty interesting, especially with valve letting heroes have real power curves, something that Riot always tries to flatten.
Also, i love the sound effects.


But i dont think i want to put time into learning a new Mp game right now.

Is there a way to make it so pressing space centers the camera on your hero like it does in LoL?

I bound "select hero" to Spacebar, and just got in the habit of double-pressing it.

There's probably a way to do it in the console (make spacebar issue the "select hero" command twice), but I'll have to check.

EDIT: For LoL-style center on hero, add the following to your config file:

alias "+centerhero" "+dota_camera_follow;+dota_camera_follow"
alias "-centerhero" "-dota_camera_follow"
bind "SPACE" "+centerhero"

SF has been having pretty good success at TI3. I didn't expect to see an old school carry make a comeback.

How does animation canceling work with abilities? I saw Mushi cancel SF ult a few times, does it not consume mana and cooldown? and how do you do it? do you press R and then spam move or S to cancel?

You just press S once to cancel. Issuing a move command does not cancel cast animations.

The ability's CD/mana are not used if you cancel it before the cast completes.

SF is actually quite good in this version. The Chinese commentators were saying that a lot of teams are afraid to use the hero because if you get behind early the game can snowball out of control, but if you pick him into the right matchups he can snowball the game for you just as easily.

I really don't know anything about the heros you don't see all of the time, but it felt like Dendi was doing pretty well then was completely useless as soon as grouping started. I guess thats why we don't see skywrath mage much.

I also hate, and this isn't exclusive to the international, how casual streams are about the draft, I really hate when they cut away from the draft screen or join mid draft even though I know it isn't that big of a deal.

Once they got BKB's they heavily mitigated Dendi as a damage threat. Skywrath Mage kinda reminds me of LeBlanc in that regard.

ok I know what bkb does that wasn't what I meant lol. I mean like QoP and Storm seem to stay useful past bkb timings, and Skywrath seemed terrible.

I wasn't trying to correct you, just kinda talking out loud
I think Skywrath relies much more on spells for damage than those other heroes.

I actually have no idea why he seemed so useless, but it's more than bkb, I've seen QoPs in 40 min games output more team fight presence than Dendi did with 1 bkb on the field.

I'm pretty noob with dota, I mostly only know the popular heros and their abilities.

Opposed to qop, storm and puck, skywrath has only single target abilities outside ult, is very immobile and has super low HP as well as terrible basic attacks. Qop in particular almost always becomes a very strong right clicker.

so Alliance made no effort to save any tier 2 towers. is the idea to avoid all fights and just let Loda and Bulldog farm?

they realize they can't do ANYTHING against luna's and tide's ults without bkb and some damage on alch, so they just farm as much as they can, and trade some towers. They got all t1 towers with no pushing heroes, while navi has strong pushing lineup
