Dumb question but will the lightning proc his passive?
His passive is a buff placer, not an orb, so yes, it will.

Best I can do is 11 seconds
zeus with MoM + Divine ftw.
=(Unless you die and give it to Riki.
not working at all for me.
edit: figured it out. default buttons. 13-15 seconds seems to be my average. best was 12 seconds.

Welp, got creamed by a bounty hunter who built l5 dagon.
I'm happy when I can get through it. 26 seconds is so far my record.
Ah, neat.
Is it me or are his recommended items absolutely terrible?
Just got in, thanks to someone giving me a key. I've never ever played a MOBA game before, I wanted to wait till this one to get started. I'm going to try reading some guides and see if I can join you guys.
EDIT: Nobody congratulate me. I'll check out the links in the OP

After consecutive wins I have determined that support veno + ward build going arcane boots into mjollnir is ideal.
Sorry for fucking our lane, Dreams. I think that was my worse Leshrac game ever.
kinda interesting, but it seems like a disable (orchid, sheep) would be money better spent. the stats most supports desperately need with actives that help the carries and gankers do their job (kill). I'll give it a try at some point, though!I completely disagree. On hybrid supports like veno I much prefer Dagon. Supports are by nature squishy but packed with lots of utility. Throw a dagon on CM or a hero like dazzle and you have the ability to change games with a 500+ burst that will essentially create a 4v5 fight. I've tested this in 2-3 games so far and the results have been superb, far exceeding my initial expectations.
sheeeeyit.2: Lich can't beat Doom 1v1 (even with Sheep stick).
sheeeeyit.
anything near by to help the ult bounce?![]()
Nah man you were fine!
With lanes like that (Tiny + Sniper) they want to stun then let Sniper roll. Best way to play that game is to not play it at all. They were hoping we'd dive in to try to get last hits so that they could rape us. They had the range advantage and one of the easier AOE stuns in the game.
The only thing we could have done better was block our creeps more so that we could get some last hits behind our tower in safety. That would have meant a few more items earlier...but it was fine. Also, ganks from mid would have been nice earlier, as they were basically free farming for 10 minutes. Anyway, I didn't see you much after the laning phase because I was busy trying to farm up the goods, but you had some epic stuns. I remember that much. Made Riki's and Drow's jobs very easy.
I probably should have gone for more early lighting harass, but I am always apprehensive about laning with a Riki. I mean, I knew you were probably much better than the average random, but my confidence was still pretty low. I kinda wanted to keep my mana in check just in case. Of course, those Tiny stuns proved I made a pretty dumb decision there. I think if I were doing more damage with that lightning they wouldn't have tried to pull those ganks so often. I probably could have got more farm that way as well but I was being a darned mana conservative for no real reason whatsoever.
Lesh's stun is a complete pain in the ass. The delay makes it feel like it takes ages for it to come out. I'm surprised I managed to nab so many without an advanced stun from another person.
Yeah, those other GAFfers that we were playing with are trying to do as much experimenting as possible during the beta.
Decent game overall.
Having a hard time here. It'sannoying as fuckso weird controlling a character by clicking where you want them to go.
Who doesnt like team healing?
No vanguard Sanjay?
Thanks for all the help guys, I'm going to try out some of that stuff now in a game with Phandy (don't tell him though - he'll bitch and moan)
I don't think I can do this. I feel like I'm trying to guide a blind person by describing the situation to them. Aside from the amazing disconnect from character control, even the core gameplay seems really removed from myself. Until you're fighting with other people, you're basically just watching creeps fight and trying to tactically kill them in the order you want to push/pull the battle location and stop the enemy hero from doing the same in their favor. Having the action being this autonomous process you are both trying to tweak is... so bizarre... Then you have all the shopping stuff.
I don't know. My favorite games are ones where you have 100% precision control over everything in 1:1 ratio to inputs. Even when it's brutal like Super Meat Boy, God Hand, Rainbow Six, or sim racers, that's what I like. This seems to be doing everything it can to block, distance, and complicate every step of every gameplay element. It's maddening. I can see how it came out of RTS, though. I guess if you're used to those it would just be like a more character-focused version.
Bounty Hunter Dagon build already spreading!!!!
But that bastard randoms everygameand moans at you for picking a hero. Farmland folk you just can't understand them.
I hope valve surprises me with 2 hero update... i miss those![]()
Oh sorry, it might be possibly just because you only have characters in one category each, so disagreements are on priority. I also kind of think the best divisions are more along the lines of farm/level dependency, but it may be harder to explain to newer players like that.
So, there'll be a new hero this week?
I'll be happy if we even get one. :/
Didn't Tobi mention that their goal was to only get five more out before the International II?
5-10 left from Dota 1, not 5 heroes that will come out until the international lol.
Also since Phantom Lancer is coming out, he has like billions of illusions right? What are the main items/skills that instakill illusions, I know there are some.
