Is there any page that goes into the details that are not up front in dota2? Like every hero having X% of magic resistance built in, courier encumbered, and other things that you wouldnt notice right away?

Is there a really cheap (like sub 500) Laptop that can run Dota on at least medium if not better?
I moved out of my parent's this week and I really miss playing Dota with my little brother in the same room, so I need a way to let him play over my house.
Preferably from Amazon for 2 day shipping

Without checking, It must be xcylops then
Yep. First time hearing him. He's probably too nice to cast, but Twitch chat seems to love him and I can see why.

Do the players know how they qualify to be at the international? Like which tournaments are weighted or not.

the wiki should have everything of that sort, plus all the weird interactions you get between heroes.
No, it's one of the things EE mentioned and Valve should really let people know, as it's clearly adding unnecessary extra doubt to the players.

Yeah love the dude. always enjoyable and relaxing.
No, like so https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oAbUsbFgNo#t=86
Without seeing it or testing it myself, I assume it means the death ward just freezes inside the chrono and stops what it was doing. While still channeling its cast time (as long as witch doctor is outside the actual chrono).
Edit: Check post above me... seems to be what I'm saying.
One thing that might restrict this in Dota 2 is that in Sky's cricket coverage, every commentator presenter and pundit of their main coverage is an ex-international, some of them considered among the best ever (e.g. Ian Botham).
Which is why the pros would do it.

We have merlini <3
dave is ok
aztek is ok
I think Valve would much rather the organizations work with eachother than work with them.
Cool, thanks
I don't think even merloobi knows what EE knows about going treads+manta on PA. Aui talked about it like it was some big secret and that he'd get in trouble if he told us.

i thought it would be some cool thing and it was just lame shit like dodging some shots and getting rid of silences what a let down
i was like no shit
Was that really it? wtf I feel so cheated.
That's just what they want you to believe.
Ew, numpad.

to be fair c9 never said it
i wanna say it was ppd way later in the night came on and talked about it and wasnt sure why they were treating it as some secret
That's going to make Shadow Blade a lot better on him now, since you don't have to know when you're going to PAUNCH somebody before you use the SB.
kthx

i thought it was because the illusions get the blur passive and wont show in the mini map so he can do c9 ratting faster ...

Because I also want the EE-Luna set.
So, my thoughts on the patch:
Illusions nerf as I called, this is probably to nerf Naga and TB moreso than any other heroes.
Brew nerfs aren't gonna be enough.
The chen buffs were really creative, make him move mobile and have a real late game with aghs granite golems.
Earth Spirit got some token nerfs, he'll probably be CM in New Bloom.
Big Slap to Void, hope it's enough, but it' still 6secs of hard CC.
Jugg is gonna get to a state where it will be like void and he'll just explode in popularity when people realize how good he has become.
That Kunkka buff will be awful for people like me who do the level 2= torrent and level 3= boat, but it's an amazing change for people who do know the proper timings.
Naix's new sub ability actually seems like a buff to his jungling, even though he belongs in lane. I can see some plays with Ursa or Centaur creep.
Those would have been some amazing changes to Sylla if no for that god awful CD nerf. I understand the need to increase it since now battlecry gives a severe benefit at lower levels (+50 on bear AND Sylla is huge), but 40 secs would be more than enough, considering the lower duration as well. Will probably be iron out in the next few patches.
Nice buffs to Nightstalker, love that hero and those buffs could be absolutely crazy when coupled with aghs.
Ogre can get rekt for all I care, hero was too good.
Crazy buffs to QoP, I feel she's gonna be one of the t1 or t2 heroes of the patch, 1300 blink at lvl 1 is crazy. also, pure damage on ult, and goes through bkb, wut.
Token nerfs to Slark, I still feel the hero is a tad too strong.
Tide nerfs were mostly to his Refresher ult, It will probably still not be enough.
Can Tiny still combo with the new Toss timing?
Nice buffs to undying, hope it's enough to make him popular again.
Huge Wr buffs aswel, but i'm not as optimistic on this one.
Euls nerf wasnt enough imo

She can get to the new double bounty rune and still get back to creep block with her new blink.
