Another day went by without a decision made. Everyone spent the entire day in the jungle, farming.

Night 2 begins now

FIRST BLOOD
The teams made first contact last night. Having farmed sufficiently enough, the Dire carry came from the shadows to pounce his prey. But something went horribly wrong. Instead of landing the pounce, Slark missed and landed himself on a ledge. Stuck with Pounce and Shadow Dance on cooldown, he was an easy pick-off for the Radiant.


Pach, Slark (Dire) has been slain!

You have randomed Slark, the Nightcrawler.

Image

Slark is a melee agility hero that utilises his skills to spring onto enemy heroes and slip out unhindered

While serving his time in the sunken prison Dark Reef, Slark kept to himself until he discovered a group of prisoners known as the Dark Reef Dozen organizing an escape. During the attempt, most were killed and a few were captured, only to be executed later. But not Slark. This unsung thirteenth escaped unharmed and remains the only successful escapee from the Dark Reef.


Ability:

Shadow Dance: The hidden Thirteenth is a slippery foe. Whenever you perform the factional kill, you activate this ability, rendering yourself invisible and immune to all negative actions. However, if the kill fails, the effects of this ability wear off, you are caught by the Radiant, and you are killed.

Win Condition: You are aligned with the Dire. You win when it is logically impossible for any more of the Dire to die.

Day 3 Begins Now!

I'm guessing that was due to the kill failing? That or vig + mafia kill blocked or something?

Anyone get anything worth sharing from night actions?

Judging by the way the ability is worded, I assume that it was a coin flip to determine if the kill worked or not, since he was immune to all negative actions.

If I had to guess, I would say whoever mafia targetted had some sort of counter ability, maybe where the result was flipped. Would that make sense for any Dota characters?

Well, that's good news; although, it'd be better if we knew the exact cause of death.

By the way, did someone give me something last night?

This, honestly, probably has been chance.

It's possible for a kill to fail due to somebody being untargetable. That'd make more sense than a coin-flip strongman.

Buuuuuuuuuuut

Geno's "guess" of a counter ability says quite a bit to me

Nice quotes. I'm just trying to think in terms of a video game. Counter abilities are common in video games.

If I'm reading correctly, Pachino's ability is not a strongman kill. He is simply invulnerable if his kill succeeds. The most likely scenario is that his target was protected. As a result, his kill attempt failed and he died.

TOWK, can you clarify what falls under "negative actions"?

Ooh, I think I killed Pachino. I'm not a Vig, but I did interfere with the role.

BTW, since Pachino was in fact mafia (wow), we should examine Terra's read lists as well as Pachino's to see if they might have slipped up somewhere for one of their teammates.

Anything that harms or impedes him personally.
Ex: kills, investigatives, roleblocks, jailkeeps, etc.

How about you explain exactly how you "interfered" with his role?

Emphasis on "think," but I protected and role blocked King Arthur. Since King Arthur apparently already used his ability, if he was town, it would protect him; if he was mafia, it wouldn't let him kill anybody or help the mafia.

I'm guessing that King Arthur was targetted by Pachino, which could mean the mafia was trying to get rid of townies that were somewhat already confirmed so that the town would have less information.
