Dota 2 has no heroes whose names start with X or Y!

You know what to do Icefrog, we need an algebra hero!

Edit: Names that aren't on the hero's loadout don't count, guys.

TIL Wraith King's level 25 talent might be a nerf in some cases.

I didnt realize that the wraithfire blast on reincarnation talent REPLACES the atk speed and move speed slows that the ult has by default. Idk why I just assumed it was an addition.

So you are replacing a 4 secs MS and AS slow with a 1.6 secs stun + 2 sec MS slow. (This does get much better if you have the stun talents)

The stun has a travel time and is disjointable while the default slows are instant + you lose the AS slow completely.

Rubick Shard no longer mentions that ally's can be thrown farther.

Ally throw distance is an extra +225.

TIL that fractional damage numbers are always rounding up in dota

Found something interesting today.

I was testing jugg blade fury and saw the dmg was slightly higher than I expected, it looked like he was doing 5 extra dps at maxed level. At first I thought it was a bug but turns out it was just the dmg per tick after magic res was supposed to be 26.25 and it was being rounded to 27.

This made me test if the dmg is always rounded up. Looks like it is, even if you are doing 5.01 dmg per tick it gets rounded to 6. It doesnt really matter late, but early game this can definitely be impactful.

Try this for fun. Use lvl 1 arc warden flux on dummy with no items and dummy with a robe of magi + shawl. They both take 78 dmg.
