OFC:
http://www.playdota.com/heroes/oblivion (http://www.playdota.com/heroes/oblivion)
Read notes at spell:
• Damage type: magical
• Mana Flare is triggered when an enemy casts a spell and the damage is based on the spell's mana-cost.
• Mana Flare deals the damage before the actual spell is cast, so if the target dies the spell will have no effect.
• Nether Ward can be targeted by Decrepify.

Very nice, there are some useful things on this page.
Agreed.

I repeated it here X-times about PRD -Pseudo random distribution system but still many ppl dunno about this system which u can obviously abuse for your good ;) almost every % skills are not clearly random but with every ongoing attack the % grows so you proc for sure ;)
check this vid show by Luminous (head leader of DC) hes talking about the PRD and gives interesting points about it
hes talking about others stuff like tournaments so PRD part starts about 2 mins and then gives some good challenge for ppl ;D its just 10 mins and they wont be wasted for you ;)

Ain't it same as crits(when you buy buriza to juger or someone else you got chance to do your crit and buriza crit)
crit doesnt stack only if they crit for same attack but they still work so every skill/item rolls on every attack so it may seems that crits are often but better choice is increase AS cause its better then have two sources of crit cause how in vid % system works cause if one skill crit for other skill/item % drop to 0 again but with great AS and one source you got higher % of crit quicker growing of % and reset just itself so buy rather AS items then more crits

and evasion how said
As far as i know it doesnt stack u got ur biggest evade so if u have for example 35% from skill and 30% evade from butter u have total 35%.

Roshan is name of Guinsoo's bowling ball.

Pendragon ,one of dota creators ,is only developer which name is not in odta map.

Eul's scepter of divinity , Gooinso, Icefrogs used to unlock bosses in 6.x9 versions .

Also Linas ulti does really small mini stun
Title: Re: FotD vol.3
Post by: joyjoy on July 04, 2011, 10:20
Also Linas ulti does really small mini stun

others mini stuns

Luna's Lucent beam does it but eclipse based on lucent beams doesnt
Bounty haunter's shuriken does
Zeus' Lightning does and reveal AoE around target
Magina's ulty does and even its targeted it does dmg in very small AoE (you can hit more targets ;))
Necrolyte's ulty does

abuse it to canceling TP scroll or channeling spells, so if you think you will need that skill its sometimes better to keep it then waste it and then be mad that cd was on and no1 got stun or disable ;)
if forget some mini stun write down them here

but I didnt add snipers cause its obvious skill usage of mini stuns, those above are not well known ;)

I've just played very first DotA map by Eul:
There are 2x16 heroes.
4 shops in each base, 2 shops on mid (they have only heal potion, mana potion and aoe heal) and 2 secret shops in forest.
Max lvl 10.
Dragon Knight is basically same as in actual version.
Eul was inspired by Starcraft map called Aeon of Strife.

hes dragon knight after all he have to survive :D but some change to him would kick him into competitive scene again ;) hes weird

btw upgrading one of the previous post about channeling spells and interruption
Using Lothar's Edge, Shiva's Guard, Armlet of Mordiggian, Phase Boots or Mask of Madness will not interrupt your channeling.
the first 3 already were posted but 2 rest not
even I ask myself its useful to use these two in channeling?  :D

and some from my mouth and mind (I didnt reveal it ofc but I remembered this now) :D

If youre rolling in storm spirits ulty you can use items and spells  ;) so in ulty you can use remnant or shiva for ex.
some ppl say that you can ulty in your ulty but dunno that if it works and if yes what it does, if you try it or know something about it give it here

Im not quite sure but Icefrog changed it, its doesnt search corpses but it got radius around ES which search units and then radius around each unit that search for another units and this radius is bigger so you now hot more targets if not corpses ;) its somewhere in changelog in some version but dunno what so its will be long to search it :D
Title: Re: FotD vol.3
Post by: joyjoy on August 07, 2011, 02:29
some interesting fact I remembered now:

AM mana burn does dmg (found it on playdota.com in heroes descriptions and its 0.6 dmg for every 1 mana point drained) to hero, so if you attack him or any other mana target you have at lvl 4 +38 dmg bonus and its quite a lot, ofc if no mana to drain or less then 64, you got less or no bonus but in that moment comes always ulty :D
just reminding that cause AM is now on the loose and top picked in dota scene so play him more hes pretty beast ;) with QB and PT/PB and mana drain bonus he farm and dmg quite hard on earlier lvls and likely from other carries got pretty good escape mechanism and to-battle-jump skill... 8)

no, it dont bounce of corpeses. But u get a agha upgrade that add 1 bounce on heroes so its 2 bounces per hero. The direct damage from echo slam deals pure damage that means it deals damage to magic inmune units. The bounces that come from creeps or other heroes deals magic damage tho.

And an extra fact, naga snare, meepo earthbind can sucesfully disable magic inmune units at the cost of not being able to disable ethereal units.

yy after releasing bat it wasnt hit by echo cause of flying but IF changed that immediately cause he as flying unit doesnt count to unit radius also it counts any air unit as cyclone and tornado unit as well
one thing only can save you, not stand closer ;D or have increased magic immunity or full immunity even primary dmg is pure and hits you, secondary is magic so its reduced or blocked ;)

from DC today
"Bracers, (especially) Wraith Bands and Null Talismans give the highest combination of stats and +dmg with your initial 603 starting gold"

dont skip them unless you are very well and can afford big stuff and win, but they boost you in best way at start and cost so little, also Bracer is used in tango that is imba and Null in dagon so for some heroes very nice upgrade ;)

Yea, I know that fact too, it's quite entertaining if you have good mana regeneration and full mp :D Ulty towards someone and using remnant so it's risky for him to escape that way you came from ;D But it does shorten your "travelling" time, so gotta be careful :D Btw that "ulty in your ulty" sounds like "yo dawg" meme ;D

"Borrowed Time will not be activated if Abbadon receives a hit when he has more than 400 hitpoints, so some strong nukes can kill him without activating it."

and some tip for this skill - cause BT is activated by condition in it or you can active it self anytime, abuse that cause more efficient is to cast it before 400 HP initiate, you regain your HP faster and more cause tenemy got think of 400 HP lvl or some nukes like laguna blade can you kill before instant, and if you tank you team more HP after the effect is needed ;)

(mkb doesnt work on void)

yy MKB just for any miss and evasion but backtrack is not evasion thanks it can stack with evasion;)
its direct HP gain not any miss - you regain same HP as you lost thanks attack dmg in same time so you lost nothing in that case - thats why MKB doesnt work on backtrack but on his Butterfly yes so Void is a bitch if that player got better luck then in lottery :D

some new stuff from PD.com

"Reducing enemy armor beyond -20 (71% damage increase) will not have any effect on the unit."

for newbies imo, if you see a big dmg amplifying on some hero, keep you slardar ulty for another hero cause the reduction will be then just a bit higher and visibility can be much useful on riki or some windwalker
here graph for armor

Some heroes come from other realms than Warcraft:
Vasilij Zajcev, the sniper - He was real sniper, one of the best Soviet snipers in WW2.
Aurel Vlaicu, the gyrocopter - He was Romanian engineer, inventor, airplane constructor and pilot.
Pudge, the butcher - It is character from Diablo I, there he said "Ahhh, fresh meat!" when your hero met him.
King Leoric, the skeleton king - It is character from Diablo I (will be in Diablo III), he was king of Khanduras, also known as Black King.
Medusa, the gorgon - Unit from Greek Mythology.
Tidehunter, the leviathan - He is sea monster, one of the princes of Hell.
Zeus, the lord of Olympus - Do I need to say anything here?

Quote
*note a unit can NEVER receive 100% damage reduction, the value should reach 99.9% when the armor reaches (99,999/reduction%) or (16666 armor with 6% reduction) which is most likely impossible in WC3

I can make you ss writing Dmg Reduction 100%(Custom Game)

this from playdota.com
"Yurnero, the Juggernaut, can attack targets he uses Omnislash on between the blink strikes. The number of attacks he can perform depends on his increased attack speed."

to increase AS help items: Butterfly, AC etc. or some skills that boost your AS (Ogre Mage bloodlust, Trolls ulty etc. )

and here some interesting imo not well known

If a unit bottles a rune and still has that rune 1:59 minutes after bottling and becomes Doomed, Astraled, or somehow paused, the rune will not be used and will drop at the unit's current location.

two runes on map at same time ;) if you remember this while playing with those skills try that to have rune ...

In notes at her ulty is:
• With Aghanim's Scepter it no longer reduces damage from secondary item effects (Like bonus damage from Bash, Chain Lightning).
I understand that but the fact I've written says nothing about her ulty. Agha + lifesteal on WR = less hp lifesteal on normal attack? This is what I don't get. Or do I misunderstand the fact?
+ IIRC her ulty with reduced dmg works with trigger heal so if she uses ulty with lifesteal she does reduced dmg but get amout of hp like there would be no reduce.

yeah I wrote it wrong, I was confused by it :d

agha improve ulty so orbs would be so strong so theyre reduced, so fi wanna to build carry WR, skip agha and much better is built MKB with orb

it imo will go that distance but its just about the direction, its same like you double click dagger and it auto blink you towards your fountain

and about the blink destination its same with all other blinks (AM,QoP...) if you target above max range you will blink just 3/4 of the max range

Sven doesn't have dagger, he activated a powerup commonly called "invisibility rune".

Some good thinks to know - another fact of the day ;)
Toggling treads, ring of basilius, magic stick/wand, and soul ring will wake up sleeping neutral creeps in a 400 aoe

Radiance dmg the creeps, thats why they attack you.
Not by Toggling it.

Probably everyone not a beginner know these by now.

Diffusal blade dispel Omni repel, guardian angel and dust effect.

Necronomicon level 3 warrior can damage Rasta through Last will when kill by his mass serpent ward.

Contributions to this topic after 18.10.2020 will be eligible for inclusion in the "Did you Know?" fact database that are displayed in lobby every minute.

Sounds like improvement. But can we disable this on individual basis? Spamming this each minute is too excessive and this is like youtube adds or any site adds without adblockers. Hosting games is now harder for the host and for players because these additional lines makes tracking what's going on from 8 available lines in lobby less effective and next can be expected:
 - checking players will be much harder since this will pop-up out of nowhere
 - more leavers after they realize they have not been locked with their friends or are in stack with 2-3 players with very bad stats
 - the host will need more time to make the game
 - having only 8 visible lines available in lobby is a mess, now in all that mess with additional line during higher activity in lobby will make lobby chat unreadable

Ideas and solutions:
 - change lobby interface and chat space from 8 to 12 or more lines
 - in client in gproxy options make a button to enable/disable
 - integrate adblock to the system  :like a boss:

I can add a command to disable it by host, the rest are not doable.

Very bad news. I don't want to see that every time.
Can it be once in 3 minutes? Or give command to everyone who wants to not see that.

melee creep gives 2x less exp than ranged creep/catapult. To deny/secure them should be a priority. (45/90exp in 6.9version)

Problem is that many useful facts depend on map version.

"Always pay attention to game time. Coins spawn every 5 minutes, shrine activates at 7 minute"
"Don't use shrine for yourself only, always ask teammates (by pinging) if they need it too"
"Pay attention to hero picks. Having 5 carries in team or 2 carries on the same lane is not good"
"In most cases its useful to buy small items like Magic Wand, Bracer, Wraith Band, Null Talisman instead of Boots, Ring of Health etc at start of the game"

Y, this is exactly what we need. I played v7 now after 6 months and these two facts I had to learn on the fly. Good ones.

If you are playing Mortred, make Battle Furry as a 5th late-game item (30+min)

If you feed too hard pretend you're doing it in purpose.
Better get banned for being a game-ruiner, than getting kicked from lobbies for being noob.

If you are useless for your team buy some wards and carry them all game.
Even if your team knows you're full of shit at least opponents will waste money and time trying to deward those never-placed wards.

If you go AFK at least buy shadow amulet and be ward.

Some random cool fact: if someone types swap with you send your hero in enemy's twr, confirm the swap when its too late for him to go back and then votekick him for feeding. Enjoy the burn!  :peace:
