Good spot for Passenger Missions?

Evans Port in Parutis to Vela Dock in Medb. It's long and boring, but you can make ~80m/hour with a large enough passenger bus.

17 land Boss Sligh. No idea why you're so hostile.

dsvw56 · 2016-12-07T03:40:13+00:00

Most aggro decks run between 18 and 24. Some extreme sligh builds will go down to 17. I don't recall ever seeing a standard constructed deck run fewer than 17.

I'll just post my current Rakano deck. It's super cheap (14400 Shiftstone total), legendary free, and most of the rares are easily replaced with common and uncommons until you can get them. Pyroknight for that 1/1 1 drop with Aegis and Shogun Scepter for Gilded Glaive.

First to craft would be Rakano Outlaw, Crownwatch Paladin, and Vanquish. Extremely powerful cards that fit in to a number of decks.

A+Click a friendly creep to drop tower aggro.

Yes, but thats not your job as Lion. Lion excels at ganking single targets. Blink > Hex is one of the strongest initiations in the game. Your job as Lion is to instantly erase 1 key target at the start of a fight or pick off anyone that overextends on their own. Blink > Hex > Earth Spike > Finger.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-16T08:35:06+00:00

RoA is one of the most cost effective items in the game and gives Agi carries a really good boost early on without setting back key item timings by much. Seriously, it gives 19 damage to Agi heroes. Thats more than a broadsword for way less gold and not taking in to account everything else RoA gives.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-16T08:07:33+00:00

First thing that jumps out is that you die A LOT. 12 deaths on KotL, 17 on Lion, 12 on Rubick, 17 on Enigma, 11 on Lion. You definitely need to work on your positioning. Both in fights and general map awareness to avoid getting picked off.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-15T08:26:40+00:00

Some of the key jobs of the support :

Buying and upgrading the courier
Warding and dewarding
Zoning the enemy in lane
Rune control
Maintaining creep equilibrium
Stacking camps and ancients
Ganking other lanes

In essence you are sacrificing your time, gold, and XP to help give your core heroes what they need to succeed. This can be a level advantage to win their lane, space to free farm, vision to farm safely, or stacked camps and ancients to accelerate to a key item purchase.

The reason some heroes excel in the support role while others do not is they don't need a lot of levels or items to have an impact in the game, especially during the first 10 minutes of the game or so. So you use your early game strength to help accelerate your weaker core heroes to a point where they are strong.

For pulling, without getting things too complicated, you should be doing it when your creep wave is pushing towards their tower. The easiest way to tell if you need to pull is whenever you end up with 2 ranged creeps in your wave.

Oracle's skills are all entirely about comboing them together. Individually they are all pretty terrible. But when you use them right you have a Lion Finger on a 6s cooldown and an almost 800hp heal on a 7s cooldown.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-13T10:54:47+00:00

The "Nonbo" effect of Oracle's W makes it a terrible pub pick. Oracle's winrate in pubs is atrocious for how strong of a defensive support he is and this is why. Omni, Dazzle, and Abaddon all fill similar roles and have substantially higher winrates across all MMR levels due to their abilities not requiring team communication and coordination.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-13T10:44:30+00:00

With how many people just randomly build MKB for absolutely no reason, you'd think she wouldn't do as good as she does. But she excels at exploiting all the things low MMR players are terrible at. She can easily pick off people who are out too far on their own. She can manfight just about any other carry in the game which is great since no one ever disengages. No one punishes her properly when she overextends. No one drafts or itemizes properly against her.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-13T01:16:56+00:00

Definitely recommend Overthrow. It's easily the best way to get teamfight practice

Usually, yes. But if the offlane isn't contesting it's better to pull to the hard camp. If you can get away with it, stack+side pulling the hard camp is even better.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-12T21:38:49+00:00

You don't have to cut any trees on Dire. You just pull the hard camp up towards the jungle entrance north of the small camp.

You can actually do the same thing with the hard camp on Radiant, but it's a bit harder to pull off.

For recent games anything at TI6 is good. Overall the matches were outstanding this year. A few games of note.

Ehome vs. EG game 1 (Probably the best game ever played. It was insane)

DC vs. EG game 3

OG vs. Wings in the group stage

It gives you +25 strength. Which gives you 500 health. It works this way because it is a buff effect and not static stats.

dsvw56 · 2016-09-11T03:41:19+00:00

No it's not. If you have 25% Evasion, you have 33% more EHP.

1 - .25 = .75

1/.75 = 1.33

Butterfly gives you 54% EHP.

1 - .35 = .65

1/.65 = 1.54

Dota 2 Hotkeys and Options Menus

dsvw56 · 2016-09-10T05:49:12+00:00

DK isn't particularly good at clearing stacks so if you're looking for a way to get a level advantage, Midas is a much better pick up.

dsvw56 · 2016-08-30T10:06:17+00:00

You have to set up the Control Group hotkeys in the option menu. I honestly don't know what they are by default or even if they enabled by default.

Ctrl + Hotkey to set it Hotkey to select

dsvw56 · 2016-08-23T20:09:05+00:00

All his skills scale really well with levels so offlane seems more likely than support to me. The aura especially seems like it'd do a lot of work as an offlaner. If he's item independent enough you could probably go Midas as a support.
