Lol, if you think they are "sticking it to Valve" by being a hero factory you are damn mistaken. Beyond Dota, Valve takes time with stuff, everyone knows that. TF2 was in development for 9 years and what we got was certainly better than that TFC Source with a Counter Strike look.
The good thing about Dota in it's current situation? The game STILL doesn't grow old. I still play every day. They could never patch again and I would still probably play every day.
So many times LoL has come out the gate with half baked/overpowered champions that completely ruin the game until the next patch, just so they can say "We put out X heroes every month!"

i thought they added that to options already
Yes. I think it is totally worth it even if I denied my own centaur while trying to gank as enchantress.

Yes, I now play so much worse without it. I never seem to screw something up either, maybe miss a creep occasionally.
There is a command force_attack_click or something that enables you to deny without an extra button.
I don't. I just like A-clicking to deny, it's a weird personal preference, just like I hate quick cast, even though it is technically more efficient for Meepo.
For those that don't know, there is a console command (I forget what it is) that lets you attack allies by right clicking instead of A-click.
its invoker's ice wall with the difference that it block you instead of slowing and its a knock back when cast.
I thought they did but I cant find it anymore.

The console command stops you from using right click to follow on allies which is pretty annoying on certain heroes and any heroes with illusions or minions, having to M click in battle instead.
A click is second nature after a while anyhow.

Every person ever should. It doesn't actually cause mistakes because it only works on creeps you still have to attack move - left click on towers and teammates.
Because of shit like that I thank every divine being ever that Icefrog still has control over dota 2.

Icefrog was actually gabe newell all along
Putting the original dev on a game doesn't totally guarantee anything btw, they put one of the original cs mod devs in charge of cs go and look how they butchered much of what made that cs good anyhow.
Blog down, what does it mean?!
hmmm, this does seem close. Also gives a move speed bonus to allies. Would be incredible with a blink dagger.

They tried their best to make a game worse than CS:S, and failed.
When they gave up on that, the game actually turned out pretty damn good, especially with non-valve servers.

You say that until you go to right click deny, miss, click the ground, walk forward into dangerous range, and then die in lanes. I remember when I first started playing dota I would use right click to last hit and this thing would happen to me often, I would end up walking where I wouldn't be trying to and die because of it. A-clicking eliminates this as a possibility.

There was no fighting remember, only push.
And surrender
Lol. I was just looking at my compendium to see if I got any of the player predictions correct. I guessed XBOCT would have the most rampages, got it wrong, and when I clicked the "more info" box it said "there were no rampages during the main event of ti4."
Was about to say, IIRC Vivi called gg on 3 games in a row before any tier 2 towers fell, it was fucking pathetic to watch.
It's fucking NOTHING I hate u milk.

I do and it was the best change that I ever made as far as my game settings. The command is 'dota_force_right_click_attack 1' to execute the change (yes there is a blank space between 'attack' and '1', the '1' is opposed to the original '0' that the game launches with.

It's not even about hero arms race, it's because of parity. Techies and Pitlord were in before TI1.
