PNB Said

By looking at the changes made for 6.74 DotA release, we decided to jump directly to that release. All heroes Item Builds are done, the new item build system is in place and things looks like working smoothly. Well there maybe some unusual stuff going on from time to time.. but that`s considered normal. The new items system tries to mimic human behavior. Builds are being built by stages: starting, core, luxury stage. After core, AI picks up random luxury items... more variations. Cloud_str, Green, gaibo and Simple went to hell and back making that system working.

Well, release date is close... if nothing crucible happens after 6.74 porting ofc. Stay tuned, wait is almost over.

PBMN

Dota 6.74 AI will soon be available here after its release. Don't wanna miss the next map, keep coming here to check the latest updates of Dota.

News & Updates - DotA 6.73c AI Map Download

noreply@blogger.com (admin) — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 17:51:00 +0000

DotA 6.73c AI Map (News). It’s been a while since we received last DotA 6.73c patch from IceFrog. Now it’s probably time for a new AI map. The AI map developer PleaseBugMeNot has already posted status updates assuring that DotA 6.73c AI development is in progress and is going nicely. You might wanna check it out:

Here’s a quote from AI Dev Team member, Green Sliche:

6.73c content is ported completely, we even made new loading screen and of course map already has new codename. What it is? It’s a secret, but it fits new map perfectly.

Right now we test new item build system which supposed to be broken itembuild, free and simpler than old one. As you can guess new item builds are coming, as well as new items for AI and even more.

Overall we plan to add and tweak many things (such as dodge mechanics and gank system ) so this version will take a while, but I’m sure this one will be even more special than all previous AI maps combined.

As you can see, the new AI is coming with improved item-builds and mechanics, the bots will be more challenging and harder than the previous version. Let's hope PBMN and his team implements the changes soon so the map releases. We'll publish more updates regarding DotA 6.73c AI plus on this page. Stay tuned!

Yurnero Guide - The Juggernaut Strategy Guide:
(credit to playdota.com for Strategy Play)

Early-Game
In Early-Game try to go with an Stunner or disabler on the lane, he disable / stuns your enemy, and you Blade Fury him to dead. In Blade Fury you're immune to magic, so you're against disable and stun in try to First-blood like save. Try to don't go back early, try getting Ring of Health and Void Stone for Perservance that you're not fast leaking on Mana. If you reached Level 6, make the tactic that guaranteed you a kill. Blade Fury -> physic attacks and if he try to Escape and is low health, finish him off with Omnislash.

Middle-Game
Now you should have Battle Fury and Boots of Speed and anyother Item for Power Treads. Then you should have Level 4 Blade Fury, and try to stay on your lane, push until the Tower is destroyed from Enemy, and begin to gank. Until you got your Stygian Desolator, if you have too much problems gathering Gold for Stygian, finish first Vladmir's Offering (If you have trouble with surviving). If you got Mana problems, go to Aghanim's Scepter. So you can stay very long, and having not that trouble with Mana.

Late-Game
In Late-Game, you should have in your Interface: Power Treads (Agility), Vladmir's Offering, Battle Fury, Stygian Desolator and Eaglehorn maybe. Now it's time to get the Hero-killer you are! You're damage with Critical Strike is so terrible for your enemy, that you leech life as they would no damage you + Healing Ward. Healing Ward should you use in team-fights that your team can stay longer. But take care of your Ward, the enemy Team will sure beginning focusing it, because it heals you, and your team.

The Tormented Soul, Leshrac Leshrac the Malicious Guide and Walkthrought

noreply@blogger.com (admin) — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 03:49:00 +0000

The Tormented Soul, Leshrac Leshrac the Malicious Guide and Walkthrought

This strategy guide introduces the average player Leshrac a whole new level and style of his play. He explains to a more unconventional and does not cover other types of playing styles in depth. However, remember that the strategy is not exclusive and can be and should be modified according to game situations.

Strength - 16 + 1.5
Agility - 23 + 1.7 (Primary)
Intelligence - 26 + 3

Base damage 45-49
Attack range of 600
Base Armor 3.3
Movement speed of 310

Skill Descriptions

Split Earth (T)

Splits the earth under your enemies' feet. Deals damage and stuns for a short duration.

Level 1 - Deals 70 damage and 1.25 seconds (heroes), 0.75 seconds (creeps) stuns
Level 2 - Deals 140 damage and 1.50 seconds (heroes and creeps) stuns
Level 3 - Deals 210 damage and 1.75 seconds (heroes), 2.25 seconds (creeps) stuns
Level 4 - Deals 280 damage and 2 seconds (heroes), 3 seconds (creeps) stuns

Mana Cost: 100/125/140/165
Cooldown: 9

This skill is pretty hard to land as an opening attack. If you are not sure, let your mate with easier stun to land the attack first, then your turn to cast it. But if you confident, cast it as you like.

Diabolic Edict (C)

Saturates the area around Leshrac with magic, causing random explosions to enemies. Lasts 8 seconds..

Level 1 - Weak explosions.
Level 2 - Moderate explosions.
Level 3 - Fairly strong explosions.
Level 4 - Very strong explosions.

Cooldown: 22 seconds
Mana Cost: 95/120/135/155

Cast this skill to destroy tower or kill enemy when enemy's creep has been cleared.

Lightning Storm (G)

Calls a lightning storm that hits nearby enemies.

Level 1 - Deals 80 damage. Jumps 4 times
Level 2 - Deals 145 damage. Jumps 6 times
Level 3 - Deals 205 damage. Jumps 7 times
Level 4 - Deals 265 damage. Jumps 8 times

Cooldown: 6
Mana Cost: 100/115/130/145

Cast this skill for farming, harassing and clearing the way. Note that the cooldown is really fast, so take advantage from it.

Pulse Nova (V)

Summons a Pulse Nova every second to damage nearby enemies.

Level 1 - 66 (88*) damage per nova
Level 2- 100 (133*) damage per nova
Level 3 - 144 (177*) damage per nova

Cooldown: 0
Mana Cost: 110 to active. 20/40/60 mana per second when activated
*) With Aghanim

Cast this skill for farming, clearing the way and killing enemies. Watch out for the mana as it will drained as long as you use it. Deactivate this skill if not needed.

Leshrac Skill Build

Level 1: Split Earth
Level 2: Diabolic Edict / Lightning Storm
Level 3: Diabolic Edict / Lightning Storm
Level 4: Lightning Storm / Diabolic Edict
Level 5: Diabolic Edict / Lightning Storm
Level 6: Lightning Storm / Diabolic Edict
Level 7: Diabolic Edict / Lightning Storm
Level 8: Lightning Storm / Diabolic Edict
Level 9: Lightning Storm / Diabolic Edict
Level 10: Pulse Nova
Level 11: Pulse Nova
Level 12: Split Earth
Level 13: Split Earth
Level 14: Split Earth
Level 15: Stats
Level 16: Pulse Nova
Levels 17-25: Stats

1.25 seconds stun is enough in the early minutes, so take Split Earth just 1 level. Pulse Nova waste her mana, so don't take it before level 10 if she hasn't equip item increasing mana and mana regeneration yet. Lightning Storm and Diabolic Edict are good combination to clear the way and destroy tower. Pulse Nova are good skill in a big war to clear opponent creeps so your team can focus to attack enemy heroes.

Leshrac Item Build

1. 3x Ironwood Branch + Mantle of Intelligence + 2 set of Tangos + 2 Clarity Potion or just empty Bottle
2. Void stone if you can harass your enemy/enemies and can keep your hp full. Point booster / Ring of Health if you are being harassed.
3. Point booster if you didn't have it + Boots of Speed + Finish Perseverance.
4. Finish Phase Boots (+ Town Portals) or Boots of Travel

Leshrac's core item should be like this:

Perseverance is bough for regenerating hp & mana. Point Booster to increase hp and mana little much more so he is little harder to kill and can cast spells without lack of mana. Boots of Travel will help you assist your friend and killing enemies anywhere when needed. Empty Bottle (optional) is standard item in tourney game. It is used to restore hp and mana in few seconds and to get the rune.

Luxury Items

+ + + +

In my opinion, Bloodstone is created for Leshrac aside of Storm. The hp boost and mana boost is welcomed , but the main advantage for having Bloodstone is the mana regeneration. If you can have enough charge, you can cast Pulse Nova without thinking about the mana. Aghanim is equipped to increase Pulse-Nova's damage.

Guinsoo is used to disable an enemy hero. Shiva's guard increase his armor so he is harder to kill and also to cast Arctic Blast for slowing enemies around him and clear the way faster. All of his skills are active so he doesn't need attack damage.

Being AoE damage dealer, he probably will be focused by enemy carry (which mainly rely on normal attack) on the clash, Ghost Scepter will be your way out. If you manage to get Ethereal Blade, you can banish both of him and his enemy and let you land your magic spells while the enemy can't give you any normal attack.

However, if your enemy also consist of AoE damage spells or chain nuker, get BKB instead. Your Ghost Scepter/Ethereal Blade won't help you in those situation. Get Blade Mail if you feel you won't survive even if you get those items. It will make them think twice before attack you and while they hesitate, you can give them some nice damage. If the enemy still focusing on you, well, at least you give him the return damage which is pretty hurt.

Leshrac Strategy

You should pick this hero when your team needs good pusher since he can annihilate creep and tower really fast. Avoid to pick him when there are Doombringer, Enigma, Silencer, Traxex and/or Rooftrellen as your enemy.

He is needed in the mid game to help your team harass/kill the enemies, clearing the way to the tower and destroy them. He need to level up as soon as possible to maximize his skills. So, get him the solo lane if possible.

In early minutes, cast Lightning Storm for farming and harassing. Cast Diabolic Edict when reaching tower and there is no enemy's creep in the way to destroy tower. When you are attacked suddenly by your enemy, cast Split Earth and try to kill your enemy with all of your skills or just run away if you are afraid about Leshrac's death.

Mid in the game, you must help your team to harass / kill your enemy / enemies and destroy the tower. Lightning Storm Cast, Split Earth, Lightning Storm, and again (+ Pulse Nova and diabolical Edit if necessary) to kill your enemies with your team. If you've reached the tower, melt Edit evil to destroy it.

In a big war, cast all of your skills, especially Pulse Nova, as fast as you can, including Diabolic Edict before you get silenced or disabled. Clear enemy creeps as fast as possible so your team can focus to attack enemy heroes. Be careful about lack of mana. Deactivate Pulse Nova when there is neither enemy creep nor enemy hero. Cast Hex and/or Arctic Blast if you have Guinsoo and/or Shiva's Guard. Cast Ether Blast to an enemy's carry hero if you have Ethereal Blade.

Your can make it you own strategy please sharing you own style on playdota.com :)

DotA 6.72 is the next card in the series IceFrog DotA. In later versions, there was a lot of new heroes and presented a few elements. DotA 6.72 is likely to be another patch balance as DotA 6.71. IceFrog may introduce some elements of gameplay changes and suggestions from the community.

Update # 2: Meepo Aghanim's upgrade (April 13, 2011):

IceFrog shared a picture on its Beta Dota 6.72 PlayDota profile page. In this picture you can see Geomancer ultimate is to have a bug that allows it to carry more than one Aghanim Scepters ultimate improvements.

Nice to see its final polished Meepo get in this fix. We hope that other heroes do balanced / polished as well.

Update # 1: 6.72 IceFrog assessment (17 February 2011):
IceFrog asked for suggestions for future DotA 6.72 in his blog.

6.72 development runs smoothly. I wonder what you guys hope to see or other future releases. You can share your thoughts by commenting on the blog or send me an email. DotA is nearing the maximum size of the map for Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne is 8MB. V6.71 was the last 7.33MB yes, it probably means that IceFrog versions may publish new content with a couple before DotA 2 goes live.

Anyway, this page is created for DotA 6.72 AI &. Feel free to share your opinions and suggestions for the plan this next!
