Hehe guys and gals,

This thread idea came across my mind when I sat down at home yesterday after 3 rounds of dota at cc with frenz. It happen that one of our fren is newbie and NOOB, even after being lectured for a long time . Neway, lets cut that off and continue with our topic . I then try to recall what's the NOOBIEST thing I ever did when I started to pickup dota.

Let me start with one:

I'm playing 5.84c map that time and using Pugna. Playing along with my coursemates whom are considered PRO and I'm just a newbie. Not new to WarCraft3 game control (in fact I finished the campaigns), but certainly new to dota. I always ask for their suggestion and recommendation for what item to buy for my hero. Also, that's the very first time I'm using Pugna. They asked me to make Dagon. So I spend a bit of time checking out the recipe for Dagon and it can be upgraded till 800 Burst Dmg with (+100 each level). So I bought a Staff of Wizardy as a starter and then I saw my friend bought 2 Staff of Wizardy. I'm puzzled why he need to buy 2 when only 1 needed for Dagon? So I read the description once again and finally I came out with a conclusion, I need to buy the same set of item in order to upgrade my Dagon. I felt pretty costly paying so much for extra +100dmg, but seeing they were very busy with themselves, so I decided to play on my own (we're playing together in BS but everyone at their own house).

After my first Dagon out, I start saving for the 2nd lvl. Thinking that I need a lot to buy the next Dagon, I start collecting item again. Finally after like 20 minutes I managed to get my 2nd Dagon and I were stunned when I saw 2 Dagons instead of 1. I thought isn't both supposed to be combined together? Then I asked my frenz and they were laughing hilarious when they found out. They asked me why buy 2 Dagon when I only need to buy the recipe scroll again to upgrade? I said, "I thought we need to buy the same items as on the description in order to get it upgraded? See Nic (my fren who bought 2x Staff of Wizardy earlier) also bought 2 Staff of Wizardy just now." I clicked on his hero again to check his item.

Hahahaha... he bought 2x Staff of Wizardy as 1 for the use to make Dagon and another one for Guinsoo. I were like ZZZzzzz... Then they told me that even thou I have 2 Dagons, I only can use one at one time as both will receive the same CD when I used one

Oh well... the old days...

Well, if u did that in BS could result a BAN if being report

It do happen to me before also... it will be either due to concurrence of lag, phone call, sms or I felt asleep

My ex always buy the papers first before the items

This one was did by my fren... not to say he's noob but rather accidentally... we're (3 heroes) attacking the 2nd tower of the Scourge in the middle lane till Lich came out and 2 of us turn back left my fren alone still hitting... For god sake Lich cast ulti against him and then he blinked to us while the 'ice' still moving towards him ... ended up... TRIPLE KILLS!!!

One which I noticed till today still many people practicing it... even in yesterday games also, a pro and n00b did it... MOVE Sand King while casting ulti... pro will claim as wrong click and n00b will say the ulti suck (coz s/he didn't know gotta wait till the animation end )
