DotA Player's Thread (We love this game)

errr... I think its much better to talk about current hero strategies... >.>

the most fun hero to use the the tempest(the cyclone thingy)

he got a 4 skills that affect both ally and enemies lol.I had fun irritating my friends with him

Anyone think tidehunter kraken shell is made near useless now?

Dunno, never used him... -_-

Is he fun to use?

not really... unless they changed it... the kraken shell I remember is removes negative buffs(hex, viper strike, poison nova, etc) and reduces physical dmg by 28 that goes before armor reduction... also as a passive skill it can't be silenced... only drawback is the 8 seconds cooldown...

hell no, at level 4 kracken shell can waste almost any debuffs used against him, IE:track, amplify damage and even doom D:<---bad experience

You use leviathan symeria-kun?

I specialize in him... probably my strongest hero in my arsenal if based on teamwork... he's rocks in both set and tank... not to mention easy kills if you opponent is both slow and soft(rastha comes to my mind every time I say this)

Rhasta... I hate that guy.

lol levi isn't much of a tank without proper items. Most levis i know are really the team players, they go in do their thing and they're usually the first Ff in the precedding clash.

rashtah.. I love him... great as support and food... well he can solo but only pro's do that... I can never solo as rashtha even if I'm a A class supporter



well my skll buld is gush shell so I can tank a bit early... and i always get Battle fury early so I get to farm fast.. usually I can get BF at lvl 12, 10 if my enemies are stupid... by the time I reach 16 i am usually a full fleged tank/setter and chaser.. and I don't use blink dagger BTW... I only use lothars :D

another reason I tank is because I don't care if I die... as long as enemies go down with me... in short i go in with little regard for my life... all I care about is the amount of people I can bring to the grave with me...

Only rhasta can annoy me that much... my razor can eat damage if he's stationary!!!

rhasta is the best disabler hands down :P

shackle and hex add a guinsoo and basically you won't be moving for a long time ^_^

That's why I hate him. BKB = Rhasta's bane.

Unfortunately for rastha there's a guy called bane elemental who is the "king of gayness" the only hero in Dota who can disable one team on his own provided he has euls and ginsoo...

so when it comes to disables i think we know who reigns...

Bane:Sleep,Hold, Euls and guinsoo

Rhasta:Hex, Shackle, Euls and guinsoo

pretty much the same lets not forget rhasta also has wards :P

but in terms of disable they're pretty much similar

That's why he's called 'BANE'

any one knows how to use warlock? his ulti sucks.

whoa whoa wait what? his ulti sucks? >_> stuns units an area +damage and summons an infernal which hits very painfully. This is not a sucky skill. Add that he can slow enemies in an area and he can heal his allies. His other skill is awful really, thats my only complaint

use a diffusal, infernal=end.

not every team has a diffusal >_>

even if thats the case, then at least the area stun and damage(even if its low damage its still damage) is still good in clashes

Your forgetting enfeeble... -180% of your dmg is not to be taken lightly... casted right it can remove the effectiveness of certain hitters(mortred, yurnero, sven, any hero who relies on dmg)



that's why most warlocks have refresher... 2 golems summmoned seperately and correctly = death
