6.59d WUT??

I'll probably be releasing 6.59d in a day or two. There are a couple bugs/exploits that started appearing recently. While I know that some players don't like to keep downloading new maps, I think is best to fix this now instead of holding it off for 6.60 so it isn't too rushed.

Some may think that it is good. Some may think that this is bad. Why good? DUH! NO MORE BUGS! Why bad? Because we kept waiting for 6.60 and then we will just see another map that is a remade map.

Recently I found this quite interesting that some of the gamers still play 6.59b though in many cases that version has a lot of bugs and still it is used up to today. I found it in GArena and other games. But when there are PUB games, they always stick with the recent map or the stable map.

This version can be a stable version(I don't know?) because of there will be no(hoping too!) bugs and glitches that can cause gaming bad. I think making this versions concerns many a lot. Still we are the ones who will decide what map to play to right?

So let us wait! Let us hope that this will go to 6.59f!

Icefrog Enraged

There seems to be a lot of confusion going on the net. Various leak websites have people posting under my username to confuse players. I'm not sure why some players think that I would post there, but it seems like many do based on the volume of emails regarding it.

Aside from the data in this post, I have not said anything regarding 6.60 at all. It is also not my last version. As I have stated before, I have no plans to stop updating the map anytime soon.

That is his update from his blog that was updated. Like other authors in blogs. They don't want to see there post in their own blogs because after there long thinking and brainstorming for their blogs they will just see that they just plagiarized it. If you want to copy something from another blog/site. Try to quote it like what I did up there. I hope those guys will really stop doing that.

Well for me this is the most powerful items if this item is match with DPS Lifesteal Heroes. This item helps a lot in team ganks(for survivability and for extra strenght). Though you are losing quite and hp you are gaining strenght when you activate it. This is why some common tanks use this item. Personally, I find it hard not to use this without the help of Lifesteal items. I once used this item to Faceless Void that I purchased a Helm of the Dominator. I decided to buy this because of the bonus AS and for the bonus strenght(that came from the activated unholy strenght). All of us know that FV has a very low bas strenght that's why I bult this. As a result, FV became more powerful in ganks and more viable in ganking solo. We also know that FVv has a high base attack so I bought Lifesteal item to counteract the loss of life in armlet.

Why did Armlet and Lifesteal Items are Combo?

As I said earlier, Liefsteal counteracts to the loss of life when Armlet is activated. This with the heroes attack damage. Heroes that you will found using this has high bas damage or has a skill that can raise the attack damage. Heroes like:
  1. Faceless Void
  2. Troll Warlord
  3. Sven
  4. Mortred
  5. Magnataur
  6. Phantom Lancer
  7. Slardar
And many more!

So now try it, I will assure you that your gaming will be more better.
