    Direct discharge is probably shit, however the Cast on crit discharge build look broken as fuck. Get a dagger build with a solid crit rate, cast on crit+discharge, a decent attack like spectral, lightning strike or possibly cyclone if you're feeling adventurous, then a volls, and you can spam...

    One thing I don't get is, what's the point of starting? It seems to me that being 2nd is pretty much always better because of the additional card+ring. Maybe if you play an aggro deck starting is better since you can get the minion edge earlier but at least for my playstyle it's always shit...

    Yeah they're now part of the normal drop table. It's likely the double resist rings from this season will also be added. As for the league specific unique, I'm not entirely sure they were added, maybe.

    That's an unrelated thing though, and to be honest after making a couple of scions, I'm not sure it's worth it. Sure you can frontload a fuckton of health right away, but your stats are shit so you can't equip all that much or lvl your gems, so you need to stop adding health quickly and go...

    Gale went from 60 to 90 so 400 to 550total damage, Sting went from 12secs to 15secs(was 9secs in 6.77 too was already buffed by 3secs in 6.78). Those are fairly large buffs, granted the 2nd one doesn't increase DPS, but you don't want to autoattack shit more than once anyway so this adds a lot...

    Well things hitting stealth/out of sight is a pretty big deal, also his damage went up by quite a large amount, wards aside(but it's obviously lower at low lvl since gale doesn't do dmg at 1). And then yeah, dual lanes, roaming active ganking supports, shit like that. Finally picks tend to be...

    Since they accelerate over time they'll definitely reach you. I don't know about being nerfed, I've played spectral a bit and I don't feel it's really much better than archer builds. I guess you can get better passives with the weapon specific or 2H nodes, or you can use a shield if you want so...

    Frost armor is good, ult isn't a big deal but forces people to move in directions they might not want to be going(away from their group etc) and will still sometimes get lucky bounces off creeps and rape someone randomly. Also the huge buff to sacrifice means lich will rarely be too underlvled...

    His damage is actually quite good for a ranged hero. His attack animation and projectile speed are fairly shitty though. The way you play Visage mid is mostly by spamming Grave Chill and not using Assumption until 5, Grave Chill mana cost is low and gives you a pretty good edge in terms of last...

    I read that you should get every class to 10 to unlock all the basic cards, wondering though, should I play expert AI for that or does playing normal AI which is a lot easier level just as fast?

    He used to be played mid too by Dendi(and others) originally, he's a pretty solid mid, similar to any int hero mid, the quick levels give him full aura and the farm lets him get a quick blink+agh. He was nerfed quite a lot though so I don't know how good he is mid nowadays and only caught the...

    On orbs, the orb you're talking about(augmentation iirc but forgot) adds a magic mod to a magic item(which is blue, yellow is rare). However magic items can only have 2 mods, one prefix and one suffix, you can actually see it in their names. Rares can have up to 6mods, 3prefixes and 3 suffixes...

    They spawn immediately. Open your map, you should be able to spot them fairly easily other than titanium, look for blue, pink, red, teal stuff. Also in case of, you need to destroy the altars, not the hearts. There's a message that says "your world has been blessed by x" whenever you break one...

    Twins are fairly easy if you do a long skybridge and have wings to turn around and lightning boots to outrun them. You want to focus one down then the other, generally I find it easier to kill the "melee" one first as it gets in the way of the ranged one otherwise. You just run back and forth on...

    There should be coins to spend on cosmetics shit on your account, unless you spent it already. If it's not there I guess you need to contact support, but they might be overworked atm. Otherwise they're very nice about fixing this kind of shit from what I read.

    Classes don't have much of an impact on your playstyle eventually, they only define your starting point and your quest rewards, but you can play a tank shadow or a dual wield dagger templar fine. If you don't plan on playing the game/char very long though yeah you'd probably want to try to pick...

    Pull earlier. Depending on the movespeed of the stack and wether or not they're ranged, :54 would be too late for a fair amount of them. Pull at :51-52 or so, should stack anything like this.

    You can dodge/evade/block charges nowadays but yeah that was annoying. Anyway gonna go with summoner, with traps.

    Technically, while they patch weekly, they only add new skills every 2weeks or so, other week is like new cosmetics, bug fixes and a few uniques everytime. Still yeah they've been patching a ton. Granted Blizzard is gonna release a full expansion at some point next year, but I think it's more...

    Yeah kotl is awful. You either want enchantress(but tongfu picked her), possibly chen, or a way to kill the necros quickly(but a lot of these were nerfed with the patch, still can diffusal them though apparently) and a bkb so you don't die in the process. OD was a good counter for example...

    It really depends on people. Some can live with the fairly crappy animations that you can't cancel(less fluid combat than D3) and the desync issues(which have varying degrees of effect and visibility depending on build, playstyle and obviously connection). Some can't. If you can't then you'll...

    Hmm from what I know spectre builds are still good, they're not top end group farming builds but they're good solo builds and good builds overall, even though they do require you to go grab some useful spectres before each map(assuming they're not alive anymore). They are adding 2 new summons...

    Meh, this shit has been happening forever. When a team doesn't feel like they can win straight up, they'll gamble on a push strat for first game to get an advantage, it has a fairly high success rate if you can hide the push strat until last pick. They did well this time, it was obvious they had...

    AM will outcarry if he reaches 6items before naix(always) and given the right items. Might not win a man fight lategame, but he'll kill the enemy team faster than naix can kill him/your team. He gets trashed if you force fights earlier than that though, and depending on naix farm he'll get...

    Hmm carries that are better than lifestealer would be Ursa, Weaver, PL. Void/AM can also outcarry as usual, so can Spectre given enough time. If not carry, items that counter naix hard are Ghost Scepter and Force staff, the more you have on the team the better, he's still a melee carry so...

    Well yeah for PL and every other carries pretty much, these boots aren't good anymore. They weren't designed as carry boots though, and that's probably why they were changed to break on attacking too and not have active regen and stuff. They're support boots and pretty good support boots if you...

When you know what you're doing later on though it takes like 3-5hours, potentially a lot less if you're running it really fast with twink gear and shit(like 1h30 or so). You can...

    They don't wipe, ever. There is no reason to wipe. They simply make new leagues, which are kinda like D2 ladder, and once the league is over, your character is moved back to the legacy leagues which are never wiped and filled with weird economy and high levels. If you want to play at release on...

    They provide 4armor and move faster than any other boots besides travel even when broken and significantly faster when not? Regen aside, they're still good boots, especially since they're also cheaper than every other boots. If you have heavy mana reliance then arcane are still the go to for...

    It's implied but like most changes, they're not retroactive, legacy kaoms will still have the old health etc, so they're worth more and will eventually disapear completely from hardcore league to end in standard.
