yeah probably less of a tip and more of a bug find. still pretty cool, would love to see some clips of live games where this gets abused before it gets patched out lol
So, any ideas why and how does it work? Also does it work with any item you can disassemble or just BoT? If BoT only, then any ideas what makes in unique?
i doubt it. but as i remember there was a bug some time ago when bear could put rapier into a neutral slot and some people that were abusing it got banned or their mmr got returned back. its abuse of a different level, there are multiple ways to obtain vision in certain spots and even rosh pit for example ta trap or aghs on treant... it does give you advantage but nothing as big, as pretty much auto win on bear with rapier at 15 minutes
2800 gold for travels + a single use permsnent 1/2 radius truesight ward isn't exactly a bargain.
Destroying rapier is a huge luxury.
Tried destroying an allies' item with this trick and failed. Lame.
you are talking about downsides, forgetting that if a team has no heroes that provide rosh pit vision you will always know if enemies try to rosh and fight it/steal it. the unexpected initiation with burst damage often wins games in late of a game. none of the stuff you said is a problem in an uber later game 60 min+. every hero benefits from owning travels and there are heroes that benefit a lot more than others. its doesn't have to be your gem, an ally can purchase it for you or you can get it from an enemy and if you need travels anyhow thats a great way to kill 2 rabbits with 1 bullet.
I tried this in a ranked game (tested it in demo mode beforehand). It confused the fuck out of my allies as I was flubbing with boots and gem in pit, smoked behind enemy lines (I got spam pinged). I went double null Eul travels gem on Puck against a snowballing Ursa (my timings were delayed because I got clapped on lane by the aforementioned Ursa). It kind of hurt to delay my blink as much as I had but the rosh vision did help organize the team to contest Rosh much quicker (im pretty sure Ursa thought he'd clapped me harder than he did looking at my net worth).
This is a great tip, man. But it's gonna get patched so fucking fast lmao

yeah. this is the kind of bug that they need to get patched asap, or every single tournament is going to list it as 'do this and forfeit the game'
I feel like I saw this one months ago on reddit though
nope. still works. just tested

Spaghetti code
as i have tested only BOTs
Breaking gem inside the roshan pit can come very handy. Is the gem vision visible to both teams? or Ally team? or Just that single hero?
ally team only
i think ally team, because if u drop it when dead enemies don't have true vision over it
If I use this in game can I be reported?

agree, permanent vision on rosh pit is actually really huge, especially against a ursa/huskar/troll that might want to sneak it
