Yeah, but clinical Dota is boring to watch. Point proven in last TI finals

Why doesn't Dendi use Refresher right after triggering Exorcism? Wouldn't it reduce the cooldown overall?

I wonder if they're working to try and get this out tonight.
The issues in the Test Client aren't really blockers, most are just odd interactions between mines and stuff, no major crashes or anything that seems like it should prevent their release.
Yeah that's why I changed it, they aren't even all bad, just hilarious to watch. Except for the Venge swapping into a full team to try and win an auto attack war with Razor, that one was pretty dumb. I wasn't being sarcastic though, the game was entertaining as hell.
It's not like Razor, it doesn't stack.

Yeah, but you use Ult -> refresh and when it goes out use Ult again. You have now 45 seconds less cooldown on Refresher than if you use it AFTER ult is finished. right?
Makes sense to me.

Sometimes you don't want to commit on that.
Save his double sheep.
Is Blaze casting the Fnatic game now or is that just on until Tinker?

Yeah both good reasons. Just wanted to make sure it works in theory, sometimes the mechanics are so obstruse, i thought maybe the Ult resets when it comes off cooldown or something.

May contain jokes =>
Do they normally update the Private Beta continuously for the little test client fixes? With the amount of work they put in over the weekend I was allowing myself some hope that there was actually more to come.

I don't think they mandate work dates, rather you come in on your own schedule (work participation is determined by peer review). The only time I think Valve is ever closed all over is during their annual Hawaii vacation.
its a national holiday though
anyway dailymotion still sucks and keeps buffering every few minutes
Is it me or does Mirana have a keemonomimi tail? Anuxi plz
That's CM imposing as Mirana since she's already forgotten to oblivion.

I don't know
But there is one blocker, the sign Arcana ability triggers spell effects. I really think that sign ability thing needs to be re-evaluated, it doesn't sit well with me and it seems I'm not the only one.
This close to release, imagine they're eager to get it out.

If it's only visible to you and allies it doesn't matter.
According to reddit in the dev forums they have said that it is visible to enemies as well, only one sign and 120 secs. cooldown.
That to me, should quell any fears about this having any effect on the game. If you could have several of them and constantly play mind games, that would be much different.

It's visible to everyone
Pay2Mindgames
Which is why I think they should pull it until they can consider it a little more. Once it's out there, they're not going to be able to easily change it.
Before the horn I stick a sign at a rune spot. The enemy now knows Techies were there. They might assume I placed a mine. But I didn't, I mined the enemy side shop. So there's an element of mind games to it and it's not something that should be on a cosmetic.

Even one could effect the game. Just put on somewhere and you've already messed with the other team, if they even drop one sentry it's already had an impact. It shouldn't happen period.
Granted I think when it launches it will be visible to allies only, I don't trust what reddit says and the dev forums are a nightmare.
I want a link to the forum post where a dev said this.

A dev didn't say anything, this is from testing in the test client. If you don't believe testing, I don't know what to tell you.

i don't believe it's not a. an unintended bug b. someone trying to start shit on dev forums because theyre a terrible place
these (the first three things) sound like bugs not intended things
the last ones sound intended

I agree. Hooks in the back look great too, but only got a glimpse.

That's how I feel about it.
Yeah it was Reaves on a DC video talking about a Furion panic TPing like 5 units from his position and getting killed anyway
