So i played some invoker...badly, still i was able to use some spells in fights that turned around the game. Using and invoking new spells is the hardest part for me since i dunno all of the spells by memory still i feel i could get better, maybe i should practice in unranked more.

loool just play invoker, it doesn't take long before you learn them.
make private lobby, enable cheats and type "-wtf" it's way better than the trainer
every caster will have haters, but I think all of the casters are good enough at what they do except LD who is fucking bad

Shane and Lumi aren't good though, don't add much. I'd much rather have Pyrion, at least he's funny.

Shane's literally the worst. Lumi is ok. Draskyl is never wrong and will prove it to you!

ESL Items were added to the item schema, so an update might be happening soon to actually add them to the game.
you guys realize you only need like 4-5 spells at any point in the game.
cold snap forge spirit sunstrike ice wall
or
cold snap tornado emp ghost walk
into late game team fights:
ghost walk -> some combination of meteor/emp/deafening/ice wall/tornado
like that's ur basic invoker right there. Anything else you'll learn with time, but there's no need to burden yourself with knowing all the spells as you'll only confuse yourself. Just play the game.

I still don't really get that pic. I mean I know it's making pictures out of the names but how does that help you connect them to the actual sequences?
It's for people that are more visual. I can match the colors up the pictures and it helps me to remember. Your guide is really good too.

Potentially could be a nice gym/basketball bag.
This right here...I used to just spam invoke early on trying to get the ideal spell for the ideal situation. This led to me constantly being oom early on. I came to the conclusion that earlier on, less is more with invoker.

Here's hoping he get's Agh's. It's the ultimate plays item on like any hero.
i play invoker with that spell helper tab always up
The picture? I printed it out and tape it next to my monitor haha. Screen's too small for dota + it.

There's kind of no point against Mirana, WK, an AA that's never on screen when he casts it, and Lesh. Only Culling would be great and that's rare to see.
He's probably going for it anyway.
Edit: Yeah he's fucking going for it.
Nah I think he means the list of spells that comes up when you click on the question mark next to the invoke icon ingame

5 second cooldown is op man. You don't need to get amazing spells when you are stealing a new small stun every 5 seconds.
dude's going to hell
First picks Mirana -> Gets demolished.
Thank you based Alliance.

TB had a BKB? If so, was it on cooldown?

I guess, it doesn't matter when you're crushing anyway, but it becomes a way better item when there's some good ultis to steal.
EGM DUNK
It was all worth it.
6-1-12 Rubick, what a player.
And he would not have had spell steal off cooldown if not for the Agh's
It made zero difference in that game, they already won.

I'm not going to bet on any team until serious tournaments start rolling out, there's always a chance a team is going to clown it up right now. TI qualifiers will be a good one.
I think a lot of future growth is going to be dependent on how good user made custom game modes are.
I think without them Dota could get to 1 million concurrent at it's absolute peak. With them, who knows how high the ceiling is. Although this number is assuming Dota 2 never takes off in china like Dota did.
