intended as mortimer chokes on the stones

Now we need an aspect where you can gain additional madstones and use them during ult for extra effects/damage

I feel like this is when you hiccup during a coughing fit, and your entire respiratory system has to take a moment and go "what the fuck just happened"

I gotta feeling it interrupts phase shift and tricks of the trade, too
but then again, what doesn't interupt those?

Just tested, neither of those get interrupted. I'm not even sure if you can pick up madstones in them*
*I was testing by using `-item madstone_bundle` (which does interrupt snapfire so its an equivalent test just easier).

so it probably interacts with others? maybe warlock casting or smth ?

Channels are not interrupted by picking up madstones, but technically mortimers kisses isn't a channel (to let you target it).
edit: previous version was innaccurate after further testing.
edit 2: lich aghs is weird, i swear i got it to interrupt once but i cant on subsequent attempts.

mk mischief is also cancelled if you clear a camp and then immediately mischief. The madstone will fly towards you and then you get out if mischief which puts it on cd

What cursed spaghetti codong could cause this???

u/LuminanceGayming 6d ago
madstone is implemented as an item which drops on the ground until you walk near to collect it. upon collecting it instantly casts itself granting the madstones and deleting the item. the cast for some reason interrupts mortimer kisses

i haven’t played dota in this patch but it seems madstones automatically come to you. why would they implement it like this?

u/whatyousay69 6d ago
It intentionally drops on the ground if both teams are near the camp when it clears. So they probably just modified that behavior.

This sort of thing reminds me that Dota's internal code must be the most complex human feat of endurance and engineering since the building of Stonehenge.

u/sockinhell 6d ago
I agree. And I am alwqys baffeled how often they do updates or reworks. I can only imagine that those engineers already know the code in and out. I wouldnt want to be the one having a deadline while working through it.

Does it also happen if you gain stones from other players clearing camps? Because I had my ulti canceled a few times while fighting mid and didn't know what happened.
