The Real Truth 01/21/12 3:24:00 PM #403:	I don't disagree with Manta. I mean, it's not something I've gotten on her for awhile, especially because I'm normally buying so many damn wards because nobody ever does, but it's still useful. Manta has been my go-to item for awhile on a ton of heroes now. Love the MS from Yasha, HP boost, and ability to confuse the enemy and scout with images. Creates some quick and easy confusion with the fear that the enemy is about to get swapped from one direction only to have the real you in a tree above them. -- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site.

Aecioo 01/24/12 6:24:00 AM #413:	Venomancer is one of the strongest heroes in the game if you play to his strengths, which is either roaming, blowing up the enemy mid (if they pick someone you can harass to death), or being in a "kill" lane of sorts. He is stupidly strong early on and almost guarantees kills against 90% of enemy heroes, and late game he can at least have some decent damage + free vision.

I think it's a big waste to make him not a pseudo carry/support mix for late game. Going straight carry on him is a waste of gold. This is exactly how I play him. He's a great ganker early game, and late game it's all about support - he's not a hard carry but he wins fights and then just wrecks everything. Get an early Scepter to buff his already insane ult, and then Force Staff for positioning. I've been using Shadow Blade too, but only as a late game item. It still has a bunch of uses, mainly quick chasing and escaping in teamfights, or better positioning. Also, I've been doing Shadow Fiend, and loving him. I'm getting quite used to the skillshots, and his ult is just devastating. -- Fresh from my first justified ban. Ever! <cite>OctilIery posted [p:518400] in DotA 2 Top...

Even on the easiest difficulty, my teammate bots are all 0-10 10 minutes into the game. I haven't messed with bots much since the first few weeks, but it seems to me like bots on the enemy team can exercise teamwork/gank tactics just fine, while bots on your team tend to spend most of their time running in circles on opposite ends of the map. >_> -- Falcon Punch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw <cite>Xiahou Shake posted [p:518415] in DotA 2 Top...

Ness26 01/28/12 7:08:00 AM #440:	From: Xiahou Shake \| #434 Just played Windrunner for the first time. Holy hell that gal is WAY too much fun. I say it all the time -- WR is the best hero. As for bots, lowering the difficulty also makes them weaker on your side. Right now the bots are really uneven. If you happened to get Sniper, Razor, Tide, and Windrunner you can probably win even if you do nothing. Zeus, CM, and Vengeful Spirit? They'll be dying constantly. It's really just a matter of luck on if you get the bots with decent AI. -- No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck. <cite>Ness26 posted [p:518420] in DotA 2 Top...

I never really pick WR since she's just kind of... there... and when I have to support I'd rather Lion or Rhasta or something. And then two days ago I randomed Windrunner after not playing her for years and remembered how awesomely fun and strong she is. also just won with Clinkz. He does still feel ancient (oh ho ho), but laning with a good witch doctor made the game awesome. -- http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lcb35gGx0t1qailr4o1_500.gif http://www.megavideo.com/?v=57N0YAEJ <cite>Aecioo posted [p:518421] in DotA 2 Top...

Ness26 01/28/12 11:50:00 AM #445:	Shackle's targeting is decided when WR fires it, not when it hits you. This can make things a bit weird at times. She's just a lot of fun to play. Incredibly versatile, her skills are fairly low CD/mana, and Shackle/Powershot are both really satisfying to land. Plus once you get get Force Staff / Phase you get to laugh at people that think they can kill you. -- No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck. <cite>Ness26 posted [p:518425] in DotA 2 Top...

Ness26 01/28/12 2:22:00 PM #450:	And just played my first Dota 2 Invoker game -- against bots since I barely touched Invoker in Dota 1. It was really entertaining. Playing Magicka definitely helped getting spells out quickly lol. By the end of the match I was actually making use of the 2 second CD on Invoke which is a first for me. Hardest thing was managing the cooldowns on all your skills... and early game mana management is a nightmare. I still don't see how he hasn't been nerfed more. He has some amazing abilities and late game can do anything. Can go invis, stun, disarm, mana burn, slow, global nuke, summon creatures, buff DPS... good grief. -- No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck. <cite>Ness26 posted [p:518430] in DotA 2 Top...
