you know what a smoke is right ?

[Philopannyx]

well still that's the only way tiny can be invisible at the start .. did you watch the replay from his perspective ?

[76561198331338774]

But he already spawned invisible download replay please .

I didn't look but I think what you may be describing is the loadout glitch, that's just what it does to tiny

/e I can't answer because of steam guard :D and yes I know what smoke is -_-

Tiny is one of those heroes whose had visual bugs for years. I think it's related to his ult or something, but I have seen invis Tinies before. It's just a wellknown bug.

As you can see it's not his ult I guess and he was invisible all the game

I recommend going to the store page and clicking the flag button and reporting the game as broken. Include the match id number a a description of the issue. If it was more than one player seeing the issue and could not be solved by reconnecting, a fix is obviously needed: broken.

Yes and that's a visual bug caused by tiny, because the game can't load any of the different Tiny forms. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ man, you're a ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

never seen this outside of ability draft before, thats weird that it happened in all pick

also are you playing dota on a gameboy or something? that resolution :P

[Kiyora]

what it that bug?

[lulborne]

Unlike other heroes, Tiny's base model is actually just a... tiny stone. Technically, he's not really invisible. This bug is more or less the same one that happens when you see other heroes without their items. Pretty sure you guys noticed at least once a naked MK in your games, right? Invisible Tiny is the naked Tiny.

I'm afraid that's not really much you can do. I think he will remain invisible through the whole game. If you own a Tiny's set with all the parts, you can duplicate this bug if you want. When the match is about to load, change all your items to the default ones. Tiny will appear as the little stone in your picture.

Pretty sure they haven't fixed this thing yet.

(you can do this with all heroes btw, but they won't be invisible. If you want to play as legless Juggernault or headless Sven, follow the same procedures).

yeah. the bug still works(?). i don't have any set for Tiny, so I can't do it with him, but here's sven without items:

was trying to do that in a bot match but its not working. when u say "when the match is about to load", you mean right as the strategy time ends right? swapped my sven to default items as the timer was reaching 0 3 different times but it didnt work

edit: nvm it worked this time, guess i was slightly too early

[lulborne]

Yeah. The timing can be a bit tricky. It does work online too. Not much reason to do it other than the lols (or troll with the almost invisible tiny).
