I have edited some parts of the article to clarify some points. The old Blink Dagger of 1000 range, 25 second cooldown, without any restrictions is no more. It has been destroyed and will not be resurrected. I support the intention to make it significantly weaker but not in the way of 6.50. If the monster of 6.48b is left as it is the future of DoTA will be seriously threatened by addicts who cannot get out of their addiction. It will be relegated to "merely an unknown custom game" like X Hero Siege, Enfo Survival and the like.

I don't know if this OOT or no... but
Quote:

Lina the Slayer (why is she called a slayer?)

I...
just want to answer this one.

She is called Slayer, because the truth is...
the name "Lina Inverse" itself is taken from anime "Slayers", and Lina Inverse is the name of the First Protagonist Female at that Anime.
And the skill that she has is also taken from the Anime.
So...
that's why she is called Slayer.

as for the changes of the kellen dagger,
It don't really has effect on my style of playing,
So I don't really have any ideas for you.

yeah so i learned to my detriment...I was an enthusiastic lothars user with Veno but then revised my strategy...i thought with gem and wards lothar loses its utility and blink dagger offers a much better escape tool...but thanks to IceFrog...Blinky isn't the same anymore...Bring it back...plz!!!

People use that thing? Only time i see it used is on centaur or sand king sometimes. but very rarely. use a hero with blink as a skill if you love it so much

I also had the strong feeling that Lina is from an anime. I've watched Slayers when I was a kid and I remember Lina Inverse there has Dragon's Slave. Also, her outfit in DOTA quite resembles what she wore in the anime. But anyway, only the creator of DOTA or Warcraft III can confirm this.

As for the blink dagger being nerfed, I believe its quite fair. That's all. I am an advocate of change, so to speak. It gets boring when u get to do the same things over and over again.

hey i know how this problem can be resolved..
kelen's dagger of escape will live up to it's name if the user will only be allowed to use the dagger if he is attacked by his enemy..since he will only need to escape if he is attack...this way we can probably erase the blink and stun strat because a hero cannot use her dagger if he is not attacked...






just my suggestion...
