Blog post says it's hitting test any second now. After everyone initially screws around with it, maybe we should do a ridiculous 5-Earth Spirit vs 5-Ember Spirit all mid inhouse?

My test client has been updating for the last ten minutes or so.
edit: 884 MB for anyone wondering, biiiig update.
I'm tempted to actually install test client for once if you guys are serious.
Dunno about you, but I think coaching is a really cool feature. There are many times I wish I could just "play" alongside someone without actually playing, if you get my drift.
I can but it's taking a significant amount of time for me to download the update =/
#bzmdota
yeah u could use some coaching

I like new Storm. I'm assuming he has the exact same voice since he still looks like he fits.
Other two spirits look awesome too. Sucks to be Tresdin I guess.

WOW.
I guess it will have been worth the wait.
And I did correctly predict crafting, but this is on another level with all the sockets and shit too.
Still want more broken down models. Hopefully new Storm, Ember, and Earth are ready soon if not immediately.

Also, how do people feel about Earth Spirit making the jump over so quickly?

idk, with the crafting there might be so many new things to buy and experiment with - big mistake on valve's part imho. Shoulda released the player stuff first - have people waste their money - then totally turn the market inside out.
I'm glad you can have 5 signatures on an item now.
i cant tell if youre posting an intentionally bad opinion just to bait people or not
It's no doubt a good feature to have and it could be very useful for those that use it but I don't see it being something that a larger amount of the playerbase use. I play with two or three friends and it's something we'll never use since giving up a player for another random that won't listen isn't worth it.
Rarer items in Dota 2 are incredibly overpriced and if this bring them down considerably it's great. Hopefully they'll add recipes for all the rare couriers.
Well he's no Techies but it'll do. Probably just an easy one for them to bang out. I don't see any reason why length of Dota service relates to how quickly they should be put out.
Fuck yeah. This will make top 10s so much more fun to watch.
Shit's cinematic as fuck.
Really love the new Storm design. Still round, still jovial, still got some sweet facial hero - but so much better. Valve did a great job with his remake.
e: Apparently Abyssal Underlord / Pit Lord has some materials in the test client patch: http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1qlp1a/abyssal_underlords_materials_in_the_test_update/ Oracle too?

Since he was doing that in game, it isn't only for replays, right?

Its not. You can activate anytime. That's why I said we went form WC3 to WoW this update
Not sure who the VAs are (Storm is the same voice of course). They sound great though! Ember has a more Asian accent, Earth Spirit sounds awesome.

What type of heroes are the new ones?

Apparently according to the Item scheme omni has been changed from blue to red, anyone able to check in test mode?
Ember - Mid/Semi carry. Stack bfuries, kill teams
Earth - Not sure. Goes mid.
Click play. Then wait. It won't start and will then start updating

You'd be surprised. People were a bit cross when Timbersaw came out.

Any word from Volvo?
