Dota – Does a gem / a sentry ward or dust reveal Slark’s Shadow Dance
dota-2
I wonder if a gem / a sentry ward or dust reveals Slark's Ultimate "Shadow Dance".
Best Answer
Slark is not entirely invisible, as one can still see the little cloud he hides in. This means that he can't be directly targeted rather than being plain invisible.
As to answer the question: No, GoTS and Wards do not reveal Slark (neither does anything else).
Plenty of spells can hit him while "Invisible" though, as stated here
Lane support is also called a babysitter because the hero will basically babysit the ally carry to help him grow faster and without too much danger.
Being a babysitter means:
observer wards close to the lane
harassing the enemy (best done with a ranged support like dazzle)
Denying creeps to disable some xp from the enemy
Not last-hitting any creeps and creating space for your carry to move around without any danger
Using the pulling techniques for keeping your own creeps next to your towers
Using the hero-attack technique (i do not know how it is really called), where you have to stay behind your wave of creeps and right click an enemy hero, so that the enemy creeps start attacking you, and they will move inwards to your lane, leaving them exposed for the carry to dispose of them more safely.
Providing occasional tp's/healing salves/sentry wards for heroes like Broodmother/Rikimaru/Phantom lancer/Bounty hunter,etc
The Support is usually assisting the whole team, and he's not focused on babysitting even though he might do something similar on the lane. Though the support role is encouraged to get some kind of farm to provide certain items (Mekansm, pipe, etc) that will be necessary to the team, where the babysitter or lane support, focuses on sacrificing a support's money and early game towards a fast rush to success from the main carry.
