the wiki should have everything of that sort, plus all the weird interactions you get between heroes.

I am aware of that since I do use the wiki page often. I am just asking if there is something like "a lesser known variable guide of dota 2". For the things that may take a person 200+ games to be like OHHHHH thats a thing???

Diffusal is going to be really good on Slark, and it will be much easier to justify getting it in carriers who build life steel like void and pa.

Damnit I was half asleep and didn't check my post last night.

I asked if maybe Blink is even better on PA now, I meant to say TA. Does anyone else think it's really good now that you can blink always as long as you have refraction?

Don't forget the nerf to ancient stacking. It just became way more important for supports to zone out a tide, he can't catch up as easily anymore.

What's the nerf to ancient stacking? (Perused patch notes briefly, couldn't find)

The golem gives a 15% buff in Hp to units around him, so it'll take 15% longer for Tide give or take how long you can beat down the golem.

Doesn't work with tide since you do almost all the damage with anchor smash. And it is a bit difficult to focus the right one.

I'm assuming 4 of the buffs don't stack like pretty much every other aura?

edit: Doesn't seem like a problem to be honest. You just get your safelane carry to take some time off his safelane farming to come over and single target the golem so you, the support, can kill the rest slightly faster. Preferably around lv4-5.

It shouldn't, but if you get a quad rock stack the aura will be there the entire time basically instead of a rock/2x dino/dragon stack

You are auto attacking one creep the entire time, just make sure it's rockman.

Remember how I had that AM game the other day that we should have lost, but PA went rapier without BKB and fed it to me like a dumbass?

Well it happened again, only this time I was Doom and the Clinkz fed me a Rapier. The other team's Void abandoned for AFK,a nd we won it when we had Mega Creeps in our base.

It helps a bit, but it still takes a longer time to kill the small ones. And you are screwed as soon as you have two of them.

Clinkz players who go rapier before MKB/Deso/Literally any damage item should have their MMR reset to 2k.
