How Vector Casting Actually Works | A Curveball & Fine Art Deep Dive
9,200
Published 2024-06-08
We took a few weeks after 7.36 came out to really sink our teeth into how the new spells introduced with Facets functioned since there was a whole new mechanic of vector casting introduced with the ability to control projectiles. Since there's been two patches since then and the changes seem to have been stabilised, we thought now would be a great time to break down just how every vector cast spell works in the game. Sit back, relax and enjoy as we fully break down all the spells that are already well established and then do a deep dive into the new Fine Art and Curveball facets.

Dem, turns out the need for a degree in physics to play dota nowadays was not an exaggeration

I fell asleep around illusory orb part, meaning this is legit physics class guys. Where can we get a copy of the ppt. professor?
-
your explanation is more complicated than a math
-
What popped up in a split second in 3:07? 🤨 Edit: Poor Artour can't catch a break

Forgot to mention mah boi pango! I think he was initially the first introduction to the vector targeting abilities, followed by void spirit.

I'll just cast not by sight but by faith then.

Holy shit we're never gonna know where the orb is going if it disappears into the fog now

Ahhhhh i can remember my physics classes from 2001 :)

Can meathook be vector based?

Man pucks is confusing. I end up picking the other facet

I dunno, I dislike this video. Its very nerdy in the sense that it overly complicates a subject that merely needs a quick visual demonstration, instead you pull up an xy axis and all this other nonsense. Seems silly. Its not that complicated really.
