Here's another reason why you should buy Starcraft 2, it's because it will have a DotA map inside. If you can't afford it now, then just wait for it when black friday deals come out this 2010.

Dota 6.66b Fatal Error Abuse | Dota 6.66b Bug
Looks like Dota 6.66b has a serious loophole which can cause a Fatal Error abuse. With certain steps, you can make all the player got a Fatal Error on their PCs.
Moreover, the recently released Warcraft 1.24e Patch also don't fix this problem. People are using this bug as an escape mechanism from losing a game.
If this is done right, all the people playing got Fatal Error and mostly the match will be restarted.
Of course this is not working on tournament that save the game every certain time. However, if you're on upper hand of a game and yet you got a Fatal Error, you must beware of this method.
How to Make Fatal Error Bug
1. Buy a Courier and use it.
2. Buy a Crow recipe and give it to the Courier.
3. Buy Ring of Protection then drop it.
4. Buy Sobi Mask then drop it a bit far from the Ring of Protection.
5. Use the Shift button/queue command on the Courier to make him pick the Ring of Protection then the Sobi Mask then transform to Crow. (place your Courier a bit far from those items, hold Shift and then right click on the Ring of Protection, right click on the Sobi Mask and left click on the change into Crow button, release Shift)
6. To know if it is successful, the Courier will turn into Crow but the Ring of Basilius is not formed.
7. Build Armlet of Mordiggian, activate it then give it to the Crow.
8. Last step, once the Armlet of Mordiggian already on the Crow, click it and BOOM.. Fatal error will occur to all the players at the game.
A Word From Our Sponsors
This coming February 2010, the much awaited game on the National Football League will be held which is the Super Bowl 44 or Super Bowl XLIV.
People around the world especially in the US are so excited to watch SuperBowl 44 online. More and more people will look for either Super Bowl 44 Live Stream or Super Bowl XLIV Live Stream as the first day of February approaches.
I'm not sure which of the two terms will be more popular in search trends but I'm sure that both will be registered to fill in the trends on that big day of NFL.

Alchemist - Razzil Darkbrew
Alchemist - Razzil Darkbrew
Having enlisted under the ranks of the Sentinel for mere personal gain, the Alchemist's quest for amassing wealth to fund his research is a tireless and relentless one. Both sadistic and cruel in his methods, this heartless Goblin cares not for the means he must resort to for a sizeable bounty. Whether he chooses to paralyze his foes with toxic concoctions or drench them in corrosive acids, Razzil Darkbrew remains steadfast in his calm, calculated approach, despite their constant wails of agony. Though notoriously famed to be inhumane and savage in his actions, he succeeds in crippling the mighty Scourge with the vilest of elixirs.

In Sentinel's search for heroes to aid them in the war against the Scourge, they discovered the lost lands of the mystical Faerie Dragons. Upon explaining the conflict to the Faerie Queen of Agrace, she sent forth Puck, a personal guardian, to turn the tides of war. Despite his small size and mischievous personality, the little dragon soon proved to pack more than his fair share of power on the battlefield, blasting through the enemy ranks with balls of magic, faerie dust, and the capability to stupefy an entire army with nothing more than his imagination. His foes all learned the hard way that size matters not in combat, and that appearances are, ultimately, deceiving.

Get Dota 6.62 Beta Map | Free Download of Dota 6.62 Map
Participate in the public beta. Download and get Dota 6.62 map. This is to give IceFrog the proper adjustments for the new Warcraft 1.24.
Please note that there is basically no difference between this and the Dota 6.61b map. Anyway, here's what IceFrog has to say about the Dota 6.62 map:
"This version most likely has many broken abilities and functions right now. A huge amount of code has been at least partially rewritten for this patch. Various untested new functions in 1.24 are being used, anything can go wrong.
The first step is to have everyone here test in either single player or with a couple other people, test everything in the game and report which ones are broken.
There should be zero functional changes between 6.62 and 6.61b. If you aren't sure if something is bugged or not compare it with 6.61b.
The only concern for this version right now is to make sure the map code is functional. Do not use these subforums to report anything unless it is an issue that is unique for 6.62/1.24 or to use it as a suggestion forum. There are many potential issues so we need to keep things organized and focused on the task at hand.
The bugs aren't just limited to abilities. Items, commands, game modes, game behavior, rules, upgrades, timers, etc are all vulnerable to bugs.
After we pass Phase 1 of the testing (testing by yourself or with a group of people on westfall), we will then start to do regular 5v5 games to find what other bugs were missed. You can do these games now if you want as well, but we will formally start them after we have had extensive tests on the rest of the stuff first. There are many bugs that will only be easy to catch in multiplayer though, so you are encouraged to try and play with a few people at least.
Thanks in advance for all the help."

How To Counter Naix
Here's how to defeat or counter Naix:
Disables are Naix's biggest fear. Rage only lasts less than 5 seconds and as long as Naix's stunned, he can't deal any damage, regenerate or Infest, leaving him vulnerable on the spot.
Focus Fire with your team to bring down Naix in team battles. Even if he has Lifesteal and Feast, constant damaging, especially from DPS heroes, will make Naix's health drop rapidly.
Slow will destroy Naix's killing potential. Since Naix is melee, if you slow him down every time he tries to kill you, there's no possibility that he'll catch up unless he's with an ally.
Call for help will save your life if Naix is in the process of killing you. If Open Wounds did not kill you, chances are if your teammates arrive in time, they can kill Naix if no creeps are around.
Blink Dagger will help you escape even if Naix casted Open Wounds on you. It's a decent item on any hero. Simply blink away and run away.

Playing Strategy for Early Game:
1. Naix should almost always either be attacking a camp or moving to another camp.
2. Always target creeps from lowest health to highest health to reduce damage taken.
3. Never creep pull to build up creeps, only creep pull if you need to.
4. Use Open Wounds at last resort for regeneration, don't use it for every camp.
5. When you're attacking the creeps, always check for any enemy heroes missing.
