*** Official Dota 2 Thread ***

I realise we're not really talking about countering PL any more but yesterday I had a good game as Tiny where I completely shut him down late-game.

Once you get Aghanims Scepter, blink next to the stack of illusions, Avalanch+toss then hit with the tree a bit and they are all dead along with creep wave they came with. Chasing down the original PL is a bit harder though..
 
Having reported something like 50 people by now I only got 3 "thank you for making dota2 community better" in total since I started playing.

They really need to do something about social aspect of this game, 47/50 people essentially got away with text/verbal abuse without any provocation or retaliation.

It will obviously take more than one report, I mean I've reported countless people for being nobs, at times I'll be a massive one back and probably have been reported, wouldn't think one report should get me banned for retorting to idiots.
 
kotl is your most played hero? I hate you :( so annoying to play against :P

Lane with my friend who plays undying spamming Q or phantom lancer spamming lance :-P makes people rage. Kotl is an awesome support as illuminate means you still get plenty of kills in.
 
Medusa is a good idea. I have only played her once, and was pretty bad at it, but it might be worth spending some time playing her. I really hate Phantom Lance at the moment.

I usually play Single Draft or All Random, so the Drow thing is not too much of an issue, but I still see her now and again, and while it is not an instant win for the side that has drow, a few early kills and it is easy for it to spiral out of control.

Medusa is a pretty damn hard tank, but you need the items!

I usually go butterfly then get my mana regen, pretty unstoppable
 
Anyone got tips for Zeus?

I had first fame with him last night and got on quite well.

Don't W/Q something you feel your hard carry is in range of killing, if in any doubt kill them and endure people complaining and enjoy your win, Zeus is very fun and powerful in lane or mid.
 
where do you find out the going prices for items? I have a couple of mythical items i think. Probably not worth anything mind but would be good to keep an eye on prices for future reference

dota2traders.com

Login on the side via your steam account, there is a side chat thing, just ask for a price check on your items and someone will help you out.
 
dota2trade sub-reddit is good too (search for your item, rank with "new"). Zeus is all about the midgame, you hit like a sledge hammer between 7 and 13. QWWEWRWEEE is my default build, Q to last hit, Q spam push the lane up so you can get the rune earlygame as mid, club people down for 40% of their hp with W. Remember the range of E - you can setup a circle overlay to show it, it's 1000 units.

Just remember invis heroes don't get hit, they just get revealed. This is particularly useful if your teammates are ganking a riki who just popped into invis for example. And remember to buy a refresher.
