Animation Cancelling Guide

[warpten09022]

Let i show u the easier way , move + skill/attack and continue move + ....

[WujiLaiXL]

this is just moving and last hitting --.

[SHuffleHardDieTryinG]

@WujiLaiXL it gives u more as if used right

[bratkartoffeln123456]

well would look better if you had more apm whatsoever and lifebars turned on

[iamnotwrong]

remember guys if you target an orb on a hero while he is in range as your hero is animating his attack for a creep no matter how far the enemy hero will move your attack range will extend and hit him with the orb which is extremely usefull if you play viper well the disadvantage is it needs lots of practice to be able to do it continually

not the thing you can do on every hit.

(only works with orb skills like frost arrows searing arrows etc etc also you must have no orb in your inventory)

[IceinDark]

Invoker has the best way of animation canceling, so is viper!

[lahadnan]

wtf

[lovinit53]

can we right click on the target then spam right click for movement? or do we have to use the hotkey "A" then target the hero, and later spam right click...as shown in the video....? can someone help?

[SlaughEX]

[bendertherobot123]

wats the name of the song, its awesome

[Galaxino]

orb walking is too easy lol... just when everything is too crowded .. tis harrd

[kariyamishina]

But i think, the best way to understand and to apply these attack cancellation is to know what characters are you using. Like who are the characters has to finish its 3/4 percent of its movement animation before you cancel it but it releases its attack already, or does 1/2 of its animation. This cancellation is pretty good if you are using the move-attack-move strategy in owning your foes. Great using of Silencer as attack cancellation. ^_^

[haixu1234]

great guide for newbies like me :P

thanks :D

[tyrannyme]

it's simple to understand how he does it. he explained CLEARLY in the video. and pressing S makes u stop. why STOP when u want to orbwalk? Heroes with autocast physical spells e.g. Viper, Drow, Huskar, Silencer can easily orbwalk. and different heroes have different animation. compare Centaur and Doom bringer. Centaur deals damage to the target b4 he finishes his swing. Doom SWINGS back his giant fat ass sword b4 whacking str8 down on the enemy to deal damage.

jeungyihklahp for 1 ur name is terrible, only a mom cud love that name. 2 stfu its a guide, to "Show" how to cancel. L2P and stop bitching like a pussy

[katunggay]

some guys below doesn't know ironfisto.. -_-

[MoonGunnah]

how Did you Cancel Attack before your attack point

[dingoxiiiii]

what's name of song?

[Assasingaru]

"s" isnt better because orb walking doesn't increase attack speed it cancels animation so you can move up/back when you would normally be doing the animation or with "s" you'll be staying in the same spot

[PurplePyroPirate]

S works, because when you cancel your animation silencer's "last word" won't affect you. It only affects you if your animation completes. In this replay silencer obviously wouldn't be affected by his own skill, but its something to keep in mind when vsing silencer

[mikepogi99]

"s" is much better noobs....

[BBoyr4dic4l]

erm.. so is spammin' right click or right clickin' once better?

[UrbanHerb]

Animation canceling is important for any orb walking heroes. Viper, Silencer, Harbinger... etc.

[unholyine]

it would be easier to cancel it with pressing stop or hold position using the shortcut "s" or "h"

[MrSoada]

right click works better since you can move forward while cancelling, chasing better

[unholyine]

well cos the vid show him atking creep :P

[flamminroy7]

gj thx 4 the guide

[synek9]

i always thought it was called orb walking...

[winvis]

Orbwalking is a part of animation cancel.

Animation cancel means anything to do with canceling your animation, while orbwalking means to manual cast a autocast-able skill(like poison and glaives.)

[chid00]

Um .. NIce

[napi92]
