One of the things I learned from watching tournaments and match games here in Davao City is the importance of smart warding. One of the reasons NoMets became the Davao Cyber Expo champions is because of their excellent warding. Their Lich only had two staples in his inventory: a Boots of Speed and a Town Portal. He used the rest of his gold for buying both Sentry Wards and Observer Wards.
As most of you probably know already, I joined the DoTA All-Stars 1 vs 1 Tournament over at BoyzTrek Jacinto (Davao City) yesterday afternoon. Needless to say, I lost. I will not give reasons and excuses for my loss… because reasons are for losers. Quote me on that please. I think, however, that my participation was not a lost cause because I learned a lot. For one, I learned that I need to practice more. Secondly, I learned that a lot of guys talk the talk, but don’t walk the walk. Many gamers vowed and even promised they would join, that they would beat the unbeatable… but only 12 of us actually came and played. Here’s the list of Spartans who bravely gambled their PhP100 and their pride for glory and honor:

Yeah, this is it guys.
It’s the leaked map everyone is looking for. It has both Orchid Malevolence and Ares Soul, sold at the New Items store where the Vanguard is.
Download the map here, and give us your thoughts on these items!
Hat tip to member noobster.
These are fun stuff I do when I get bored playing DOTA. I experiment on items that can or may suit a specific hero. I laugh at it or never thought that it can be possible.
King Leoric - Have you ever thought of a free and reuseable Aegis of the Immortal without even buying the item? Try using a Refresher Orb on him and voila.. you get an Aegis that’s reuseable.
Zeus - While trying 6.35b, I remember Zeus’ Static Field was nerfed to 1000 AOE. We all know that with this spell, he can kill heroes more effectively. Buy the Maelstrom and Hyperstone. These are items you probably won’t waste your gold on with Zeus, but given the time and perseverance (I mean real perseverance not Void Stone + Ring of Health), and what do you know, you get free chain lightning that activates static field every time!
Here’s a cool video on how to get the hidden boss IceFrog in Dota Allstars 6.29:
When 6.35b came out there was talk of a supposed ‘leaked’ version that contained two new items that were eventually dumped in the final version. So many, myself included, tried to look for it just to see those new items — Ares’ Soul and Orchid Malevolence.
I was able to form Ares’ Soul (Soul Booster + Broadsword + Planeswalker’s Cloak) thanks to an AI map we have in our Downloads section (which fellow DS member Vipul pointed out). But the downside is you can’t form Orchid (Ultimate Orb + Mystic Staff) and I don’t think anyone has figured that out yet.
But here’s a screencap I took of Furion with Ares’ Soul:
