I thought it was or at least a lot of people say it is.

Since it's not listed in either dota rules or general rules, it shouldn't be. If ent wants to enforce a rule, they should clearly write it down.

You can't do it anymore tho. They have the map updated to new one.

viewtopic.php?f=43&t=81501 - Its bannable since its a glitch exploit (banned by the General Rules - Do not purposely glitch or exploit the game.)

However and as mentioned by ForsakeMe, the map was updated today ( viewtopic.php?f=43&t=104862 ), and the courier glitch is gone: land courier now dies when he steps over land mines, so problem solved ^^ Also lycan bug (not being able to control/play it after he bugs on death) is also fixed :)

Since it's confirmed by icefrog not to be a bug, i would kindly ask you to provde the evidence of the so called "bug".

Which bug are we speaking of? The courier one? already replied here: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=104886&p=415098#p415098
Well, all his previous version the courier died while stepping over mines + the versions made after (both dracolich and dota2), courier also dies on land mines, so i hardly doubt that was intentionally placed (I never asked icefrog, but i rly doubt that glitch was intentionally placed within one single version and changed in future versions)


About lycan, ive seen and experienced it as well: Sometimes when lycan dies (it can happen in many ways), lycan becomes useless, since you can't control/play with him anymore.

I. IceFrog is no longer Wc3's DotA dev.
II. ENT decides what it classifies as bug/glitch/exploit.

So can we put to a vote about the linkens glitch for 6.83d?

I also thought it was funny, they classify 2 bugs, when linkens is the worst of them.

I would say the land mine glitch can be a very serious game changing glitch.

Both are glitches, both are ban-able.
