that's why he bought a blink dagger for that, aint that right yukito?


from what i see from the build, i see stuffs like:
1. mana redundancy...
2. average dps, or damage per second...
3. lowered flexibility from Maledritch's low range and casting-delay
4. death ward's useless if your team has no disablers/stunners(unless you change dagger into guinsoo)

what i have in mind is you add Diffusal blade into your item set. It purges, deals additional damage by burning mana, which again increases the chance of enemy heroes not able to cast their spell, and it's a debuff!! And best of all, it in a way complements with both maledritch and guinsoo - polymorph for almost 3 secs and whack, then you purge, maledritch + wards... Death Ward might not shoot much, but again by the time you did the 'pre-ward' steps, he's around 1/2 hp(STR heroes not included, as it's being done on only AGI and INT)...

Just a thought. Flame-compatible

That new hero is pretty much one of the hardest hero to play. As supportive it's good but if we going for killer build, it takes a pretty leet skill to farm for those items. What's more, after u gotten dagger, BKB, guinsoo, dagon, u still cant confirm you kills.
Get pusher, meka, bassilus, helm of dominator and guinsoo would be better IMO.

BTW, yukito, don't u get the stun bomb? Not even lvl1 in the beginning?

ok, do you guys see any frogs in latest dota map ?
well, those frog has "name" also... "find" "the" "other" "one"
but no one know those frog exist for a reason/ without a reason
guys any clue ? (well maybe icefrog is too free, those frogs just nothing)

I guess its just another easter egg. lol

wow tat is nice...
maybe icefrog put it for fun? lol

Hmm, i so far havent seen any frogs..

Sorry guys but this year I'm quite busy and I only do around one dota game per 2 nights so here's my very late reply


Smart fellow


Thats why I recommend going for stats, to help you in the farming part, and making u last longer on the field.


If your focus is on the AGI and INT build, then I can tell you the build I suggested is as powerful as the death ward stuff because the dmg is amazing. Well actually, I hate to rely on the death ward, makes me looks like I can't kill an ant without it.


There are no builds that confirm kills, only suitable build for certain heroes.


Lets face it, pusher builds are boring, you guys wanna get the Double Kill going right? WD ain't that powerful as a pusher anyway, with those items, I can push better with Broodmother.


It really depends on the situation. But under general situations I would say 140 mana for that kind of skill in the early game is too costly and unefficient. The effect is not instant and to make it worse it is random.

Thanks for the feedbacks guys B) Just wanna know did anybody of you tried out this build?

6.29 is out!! go get it www.getdota.com

from the change log :

* Added -csboardon/-csboardoff to toggle a board that displays -cs stats
very cool new feature ! now no need type -cs all the time

* Chaos Bolt does some random damage now
1-200 random damage ! not bad, better than no damage

* Fixed Berserker's Call exploit on roshan
to those keep saying this is not a bug, eat this !

* Fixed PA to properly autorefresh (hopefully!)
last time i think there was 1 version, wich auto refresh,
hope this time they can make this fully work

how is the modification of the death ward? anyone tried yet?

Ahh! Now no need to type -cs~ Quite cool command. It shows below the stats!

Havent try this, go back will try.

i really hope it's really RANDOM...
sometimes the word 'random' in dota isnt really random at all...

who's tat girl in ur signature eh vampyr3? :drooling:

Its not random at all. Just like the dmg you deal as a hero in DotA. Lets say u are Chaos Knight with 30-70 dmg. The computer decides your dmg in a way that you have to do the last hit to get the creep kill, whiich shows that although the dmg was meant to be random, its not

anyway, just found out yesterday,
remember changelog mention about abaddon's skill 'improve' liao ?

beside add movespeed to Mark of the Abyss skill,
now you could activate his ultimate when you want to,
if you not activate it, it will auto activate when you hp below 400 ( like last time )

Then wht's the difference? if u active his ulti, his hp wont fall below 400 and if u dun, his hp also wont fall below 400 also. LOL.

now... we got 6.29b just after 2 days of 6.29
