You should absolutely feel free to jump in to any channel, don't worry if they are in a game. Don't flood the channel with conversation if the people in-game are focusing, but this is the easiest way to know when a game finishes and be able to jump in. Games during the week are not considered as official Dota Noobs events, so checking in on the waiting room after games is more of a guideline than a rule. Cheers!

I can either take the last spot in the first match, or sub, depending on how the learning IHs get scheduled. Cheers.

And you, sir, sound like a perfect fit. The usual speal about "Jump on to Mumble, join a busy channel and introduce yourself" still works, but if you connect to Mumble next week and find no one on, this is why: http://dotanoobs.com/forum/thread.php?id=505 Looking forward to playing with you!

Lion could harass me all the way back to my tower hitting me 4 ot 5 times although he had a lower movement speed. After the game it turns out he was a level 50 so I suspect he was used to orb walking which is why he kicked this level 2's ass. What you are describing here is animation cancelling, not orb walking. Every attack/spell has three important phases (my nomenclature may be off): the wind-up animation, the attack point, the wind-down animation. The attack point is where the attack or spell actually goes off. The wind-up is the amount of time it takes between issuing that command and the attack point. The wind-down animation is the time after the attack point before the hero will continue doing things. These times are highly variable between heroes and abilities. With that background laid out, what was happening is that the Lion would right-click you, wait until just after his attack point and then issue a move command towards you. The move command will cancel whatever he was currently doing, which in this case was the wind-down animation. This effectively increases his movement speed relative to you since he is spending less time standing still, but he is still getting his attack off since the attack point was reached. |

Welcome to the community! We are actually moving to a Teamspeak server so if you join Mumble and find it deserted, that is why! Here is the information: http://www.dotanoobs.com/forum/thread.php?id=505
