Dota 2 npc_dota_hero_enchantress_hype

Slow your attackers' attacks!\n\nDominate creeps and slow heroes!\n\nSummon Wisps to heal your allies\n\nThrow spears that damage!

All of the other hype lines have an exclamation mark at the end, but it is missing in the third line of this one.

I guess wisps just aren't that exciting to warrant having a exclamation mark.

Well, if you think about it, in WC3 wisps were the peons of Night Elves, and they were just floating balls of light... I don't really find them that intresting...

DOTA_Tooltip_ability_brewmaster_primal_split_Descr iption

Splits the Pandaren Brewmaster into elements, forming 3 specialized warriors, adept at survival. If any of them survive until the end of their summoned timer, the Brewmaster is reborn.\n\nSCEPTER UPGRADABLE: Decreases cooldown and increases power of warriors.

I am fairly certain that that Pandaren is not supposed to be there.

[Leslie Hall] The vortigaunt's dispel attack is a radial explosion that takes out a swarm of antlions. It looks most impressive when seen from above--but that's not a perspective the player gets very often in the tunnels. We designed the exit from this battle purely to give the player a view from above so the vort could put on a show. [NOTE: good spot to take over the player's camera to swoop down and spawn antlions and trigger the vort's attack]

Probably forgot to leave the note part out?

It's a relative link. You only get a 404 from the translation server. It works fine on the actual support article.

It's displayed in an all uppercase font in-game, so I guess it is supposed to start with lowercase.

Not so much as a mistake, but a potentially confusing inconsistency. Apparently, there are now 3 kinds of "teams" in Dota 2:

1. "party team": a group of players banded together for a match, which is currently referred to both as "team" and "party" in various strings
2. "side team": the Dire or Radiant side team in a match, which is currently referred to as "team"
3. "clan team": the new "team" which has been added recently, I assume this is some kind of out of match team, clan, group, guild, whatever, but it's also referred to as "team"

The current naming is more than obscure in some places since you cannot tell which one of these the word "team" refers to: the "party", the "side" or the "clan".

Maybe it would be better to consistently call the first occurence "party", the second "team" and the third either as "group" or "clan" (or anything else other than "team").
