What item actives do and don't break linkens? hate knowing an enemy has linkens but don't want to waste a nuke/stun on it.
I had no idea Linkens doesn't block all of those things listed.
I always thought Linkens not blocking Ion Shell was stupid...I'm still salty about a game I had a few years ago where my idea was to have our Dark Seer use Ion Shell to break the enemy Medusa's Linkens so I could sheep her. We lost the game because that plan didn't work and cost us our rax and T4's.

Force staff is probably the smallest thing to break it if you want to nuke an enemy using it.

rule of thumb is linken will block most single target spells, and it will not block spells with low cool down.

been having fun with offlane nyx lately.
Love being able to explode enemies fast with dagon aether veil plus stacking vengeance
Probably not a good idea to safe lane for easier earlier farm though.

holy fuck how do you kill those alchemists in dark moon.
I saw the light and tried Techies in Dark Moon: That hero should be a shoe-in in every single Dark Moon team. So easy and so useful.
Mob and I made it to the Alchemist round though. That one was tough. We were pretty close to making it too.
I heard the next two rounds were Techies and a giant Invoker.

the final round is 3 invokers, and after you kill them the dark magus appears
You guys ready for my boy Sami to win the Rumble 2 nite?

how much do you micro the brewlings?
And more importantly, do you use the stuff from the blue one?
Everyone always throws the rock and sics the other two at whatever they are chasing.
I have only got to the Invoker stage once, we got him down to quarter health and then my team threw.
Yeah, just had about the same, even with one guy who didn't really know what he was doing. I was the only one that had bkb
i mean i try but they are basically one bad hero's worth of abilties and damage split over three separate heroes rn
sure you can remove one carry from the fight but you're usually against two+ carries in your typical pub game
You wanted to know the secret for brew to not suck. There you have it. I think you have misconception about the brewlings' abilities though, they def do not suck. I'm talking pre-aghs abilities.
Skipping the earth panda's magic immunity. He has a 2 second stun on a 5 second cd. Only 3 sec downtime. 800 cast range as well.
Storm panda has an aoe ground targetted purge on a 4 sec cd that also affects invis units and spell immune allies which you can also use to purge your next ability, Cyclone.
Cyclone allows you to take out an enemy hero out of a fight for up to 6 seconds on an 8 sec cd. Dazzle trying to grave his carry? Not gonna happen if you cyclone him.
Also has invis on a 5 sec cd and that gives ms. Storm panda is great for chasing and disrupting a fight.
Fire panda is prob the most boring one since its a weaker radiance, but he does good dmg.
With ult you can stun 2 heroes and you have extremely good uptime on those disables so you'll be spamming them throughout a fight. Spread them out and make them each do their thing. Earth tanking and stunning, fire rightclicking, and storm disabling and catching out heroes.
Main problem of brew is that lategame his scaling isn't great since the brewlings dont scale with stats so they become burstable later and their dmg doesn't scale with items either.
now?
I'm honestly surprised they haven't disbanded yet considering how volatile Dota teams seem to be.

I'm not sure I understand the Dark Moon scoring. If you manage to win, which takes quite a long time and is potentially really fucking difficult, you get 2,500 points... yet for a single spin you need 35,000 points?! It's like they don't even care how much effort you put into playing it, just as long as you log in to play it each day. There should be at least some reward for completing it... maybe even as much as like 70k for the first time you complete it to the end? 5-10k for each round after that? IDK.

You get an emote
Valve tends to revise minigames.
Would be cool if they added some extra levels with Ultra Raid Boss type enemies.

dagger girl is a menace
I have to wonder how you keep ending up in LPQ.
The changes improved the game and added more to it. It's a great time to come back.
I'd still ban Monkey King in ranked games though.
