will learn eventually
Just picked up Lifestealer, and I really like him, but I jungle kind of slow... any tips?

In normal pubgames: go for the high health creep because feast will heal more. Get midas asap. Use your ult to quickly kill off big camps. Once you have phase and armlet go to town.

If you want to play more serious: go to lane and wreck their shit.

Ah, LS is more effective at laning? I had heard jungle was the way to go for him, but I will play another match in a bit and try it out :)

Any certain build?

I've published the VODs from the GAF vs d2g match in the Giant Bomb tournament.

YouTube: (still processing)

Game 1
Game 2
Game 3

you should post the links like this to avoid spoilers, even though I'm guessing other people in the thread would have revealed the result anyway

good job on casting, but you missed the shadow demon kill at the start of game 1, I was so sad :p

I have always prefered LS as a laner given you have a good support class. You really need to do both and see which situation is best for it.

Don't max feast in lane. It scales pretty bad. Get either rage or open wounds maxed first, depending on if you need that magic immunity or if you need to initiate.

This game

Get two solo kills on enemy mid, 10 minute mega kill, 11 minute blink.

Doesn't matter team fed, at least they were decent guys and didn't try and blame the game on everyone else though

Hope they either revert it or at least make it a little darker. It looks so weird and contrasts HORRIBLY with every other UI element

Oh god "Darker Icons Pack" incoming
Only $5
Since this is Valve we are talking about, it wouldn't surprise me.

If you can't jungle efficiently stay in lane.
Youtube jungle lifestealer and practice with bots or offline. You should get a midas/phase boots drums pretty quickly to help your team. If you just jungle for 20 minutes straight you are probably not helping your team.

Meet the item creators: pro and self-taught artists making millions from Dota 2
Getting started as an item-maker isn’t a complicated as you might think. Mrpresident’s first encounter with a 3D program was a mere 10 months ago when he made his first virtual box. “I was a huge fan of Dota and I’d always wanted to learn how to 3D model,” he says “so, I spent a lot of time watching Anuxi and other stream their workflow process on twitch, and tried to practice their techniques and methods.”

mrpresident's Workshop Wow easily one of my fave artists is a noob. Awesome how 10 months = dota millionaire. Anuxi quotes too
 
Right.

I've decided, by this time next year I'm going to have submitted stuff to the Dota 2 Workshop.

Tall order but I will make something.

My items will be the first to make billions
Zimbabwean Dollars

Better hurry up. Once the Korean scene gets involved I'm pretty sure there will be a big leap in quality/artistry required.
