Then, copy that formula down for the rest of your stocks. But, as I said, dividends can make a huge contribution to the returns received for a particular stock. Also, you can insert charts and diagrams to understand the distribution of your investment portfolio, and what makes up your overall returns. If you have data on one sheet in Excel that you would like to copy to a different sheet, you can select, copy, and paste the data into a new location. A good place to start would be the Nasdaq Dividend History page. You should keep in mind that certain categories of bonds offer high returns similar to stocks, but these bonds, known as high-yield or junk bonds, also carry higher risk.
Top Gameplay, Items, and Getting Kills After you've picked Silencer, determine where you're going to go and tentatively decide which build you're planning on running. If you're playing C-Build, try to secure mid-lane. Remember you aren't a hero that traditionally is sent mid, and you may receive some resistence.
If you have another person who resolutely wants mid and happens to be an especially good mid hero, Viper , Huskar , etc then let them have it. You can still excel in side-lane. Next, try to get the easy lane with a jungler so you can solo. You'll be able to harass and keep the enemy off of you by yourself, and you'll still get your early game farm.
If that's not an option, you'll probably have to start going S-Build. You can still transition into C-Build later game if things go well for your team, but without an early game advantage you aren't going to have an easy time of it. Before you leave the fountain, pick up your starting items: Total Cost: g Yes, the starting build is the exact same build that the game suggests. In my opinion this build is exactly what you want in the beginning of the game; enough health to sustain you until you get Bottle, a Clarity to help spam Curse, and the beginnings of your first Core item, a Null Talisman.
The starting build for Silencer differs from other heroes because I choose not to use iron branches at the beginning of the game. Silencer's whole purpose is to Silence the opposition, so building a Magic Wand seems pretty pointless to me. I've tried it in a few games and have always found it a waste of money. Spend the money on a Bottle instead; it'll be much more helpful.
Already starting with a Mantle and Circlet means you only need about 3 creep last hits to get your Null Talisman , so you should have it in within the first two minutes of the game, and the stats will help tremendously. In the event that nobody on your team bought an Animal Courier , instead of getting the Circlet , go ahead and grab the Courier and pick up another Clarity instead. Preferably you want to have your Null Talisman early, but it's much more inconvenient for you to not have a courier than it is for you to take four minutes getting your Null Talisman rather than two.
Remember that many people only see Silencer as a Support hero who should be the one responsible for all things Support, so the team may demand it of you. Don't worry about it. As stated, you should have your Null Talisman between the first 2 and 4 minutes of the game.
The bonus stats will help in all aspects, but the bonus intelligence will really help, especially for early Glaive throws. Some Silencer builds suggest a Bracer because he's squishier and could use the bulk, but frankly, you don't need the bulk if you don't put yourself in harm's way. Silencer is all about stacking Intelligence and you want to do it as early as possible. If you've gotten lucky and managed to get a kill or two, consider picking up a second Null Talisman just for the raw stats.
On Silencer, an extra 12 Intelligence early game is nothing to scoff at. If you're mid, you may get lucky and have good side-lane partners who ward the rune for you. But if this is not the case, or you are side-lane with a partner, you'll be the one who wants to buy wards. Wards are an essential, mandatory part of any DoTA game and not warding the map is as crippling as not having a Courier in most games. If no one else will buy them, suck it up and do it yourself.
They are simply too important. If in a side-lane, ward the inside of the jungle and the River enough to give sight of one of the wards. If in mid lane, just ward both runes. There's lots of guides for where to place wards on Youtube, so I strongly suggest you check them out for smart locations. Standard buy on every hero.
From there you want to immediately work on upgrading them to Power Treads set on Intelligence. The bonus 8 Intelligence and attack speed will make your Glaives hurt even early game, and the larger mana pool will keep you spamming Curse. What about other boots? I don't think a single other pair of boots in the game exists that can override Power Treads on Silencer, especially early game.
As I said earlier, a Silencer with even a little stacked Intelligence is nothing to scoff at, and these will be partially responsible for almost all of your early game kills. Even Phase Boots that provide damage and a small speed boost don't compare to that early game advantage to extra intelligence. Besides, getting Treads allows you to practice Tread Swapping, a technique that can give you just enough extra health to survive an encounter by switching to Strength, and includes abusing your Bottle by changing to Agility before activating it.
So I'll pick up a Bottle after Power Treads in most games. However, if you're roaming constantly and you're up against another mid fighting for Rune control with a Bottle, or you just find yourself getting harassed a lot, you might want to grab it earlier to put them at a disadvantage.
In that case, instead of finishing your Treads, pick up the Wards and a Bottle. I will also pick up a Bottle instead of an additional Null Talisman if I managed to get a kill or two. Important Note: Some people try to start with a Bottle.
You're putting yourself at a huge disadvantage by not having any stat items and you could hurt your team by not being able to afford a Courier. If you Randomed Silencer and have the extra gold, I would understand if you consider buying Bottle and Mantle a possibly viable option, but you need those stats early game.
They're essential, and Bottle is not; just convenient. By the end of early game, provided you didn't die and you got a kill or two, this should roughly be your inventory: Which is almost your entire core. If you weren't lucky enough to secure a kill, at least make sure you nearly have Power Treads. You're extremely mobile, so keep using those wards when they run out.
The enemy's mid tower should be down between minutes into the game, provided they didn't turtle and harass you hardcore. You might have noticed by now that besides not having a stun or a slow, Silencer has no escape mechanism, and this makes him extremely vulnerable to ganking another reason to buy wards! Force Staff is a perfectly mid-game item for you.
It's everything you could ever want: Damage, Attack Speed, more Intelligence, and a fairly reliable escape; not to mention it's easy to build. Suddenly ganked? Force away and escape before they know what happens. Remember you can force anywhere; into trees where they can't reach you; off of cliffs; into the river from the bank.
Be smart about making your escape and the enemy will find you impossible to catch. Aside from being an escape, it's also a good chaser. Got the enemy down to nothing and he's getting away? Just force staff right up to him and finish him off. Did your team mate overextend and you need to save his life?
Does a melee carry need to get in closer but he's taking too long? Anticipating a team fight and nobody is making the first move? Remember Force Staff, unlike Blink Dagger , affects other heros too. Move your allies and reposition them as needed and initiate by forcing an unsuspecting enemy right into your team.
I think that Force Staff is absolutely necessary for Nortrom and you should always pick it up. Once you complete Force Staff , your core is pretty much complete. You'll be very successful with just these four basic items. Join your teammates in teamfights and other skirmishes when you can, and maintain good map awareness at all times; this is when you can be the hero by being clear across the map and still save your team's life with a well-timed Global Silence.
Mid-Game is the time of mass pushing, so be sure to find someone to go with since you have no real pushing power yourself. You have no good creep-killing AoEs and your Glaives are wasted on Creeps at this point in the game. Roaming also becomes less profitable as heroes are less likely to be by themselves, unless they're still jungling, in which case once again wards will come in handy.
Remember that you are a team player, whether playing C-Build or S-Build. Your time of roaming and ganking is over: time to play with the other kids. Lacking a heal and being armor deficient, Silencer makes great use of this item on either build, either to support himself on C-Build or to support the team in S-Build. Many Carry Silencers grab the Mek just to help for 1v1, but if you aren't having trouble 1v1 and you've got farm, skip this and take a luxury instead.
In the event that you have another hero who is already working on or already has a Mek, skip it on C-Build and get a luxury instead, or start working on Pipe of Insight for S-Build. Pipe of Insight makes teamfights even easier by making it nigh possible for the enemy to get a successful nuke on you. By the time your Silence wears off, everyone on your team will be shielded from up to spell damage a piece. It also gives you a bit of bulkiness with the HP regen and passive spell resistence.
This is a S-Build item that you will probably want to get before moving onto your luxuries, but again, if someone already has it or the enemy team does not have a lot of nuking spells, skip it and work on a luxury. Depending on how your mid-game is going, you'll want to start working on one of your luxuries. The matter is just which. I usually pick up Void Stone after completing Force Staff before I even make a decision, mostly just because the mana regen is so darn helpful and the item is pretty cheap.
It can build into Eul's Scepter of Divinity , so it's not a wasted item since it'll build into one of two luxuries you'll probably be getting anyway. But which luxuries should I get? For S-build, you'll probably want to stick with Vyse or Eul's since your team probably needs the CC and you have no CC or disable naturally.
Vyse is easily the superior option, but is also far more expensive and not easily obtainable if you aren't getting farm. Eul's is cheaper and easier to obtain on a S-Build, although its stats aren't quite as good, though playing team support that's not always the issue and to me, the different scepters compliment each build separately. Vyse is better for the Carry to get a kill, especially on a 1v1.
It hexes the enemy for 3. Eternally regretting the lack of a stun, it significantly helps Silencer's ability to solo heroes, while still providing that team support every team needs in the form of a cheap, reliable CC. Eul's is better for the Support to support the team by still providing a CC that eliminates an enemy from the fight for 2. Like Force Staff, Cyclone affects allies, and makes them immune to attacks for 2.
It's sort of a pseudo Shallow Grave for Silencer, with the difference being that they can't attack, although it can still save your ally's life and disorient the enemy attacking them. And should you need to save a teammate from death, Force Staff them out of harm's way, Cyclone the chaser and then make your escape. On the other hand, your first choice for a luxury might be Orchid Malevolence. Orchid Malevolence makes Silencer a 1v1 solo champion, and is extremely useful on C-Build especially.
In team fights, it also allows you to further prevent the enemy from fighting back by silencing a key member of their team for bonus time. Global Silence for 5 seconds, and then make one lucky enemy rip their hair out by Silencing them for another 5 seconds. When to use OM? Stop that Clinkz or Queen of Pain 's escape with a double dose of Silence! Analyze the enemy team, see who you've already got down and who would make the biggest impact on preventing your team from wiping the enemy, and make a judgment call.
Top Luxury Items Usually a game will end by the time you get most of your core and "luxury core," but there are other item options you can try. As I keep saying, Nortrom wants to be in every team fight he can if possible, but he'll also be doing mundane things like clearing creep waves from getting down your tower or pushing a tower that's also down deep in enemy territory, or you just respawned from a gank and you need to hurry to a teamfight or you got caught by yourself and need a better escape than Force Staff.
Battlefury is not that expensive, but it is not cheap either, so AM needs to have a solid laning stage to get it as soon as possible. Purchasing the item between minutes is great because you will have enough time to scale your farm and get the next important items. Speaking of the devil, the second must-have item that makes AM a dangerous hero is Manta Style. This item also increases his farming speed because the illusions benefit from Mana Break. Unfortunately, many people think that AM is like Gyrocopter, which means they try to participate in every team fight.
Besides the risk of being killed, participating in team fights means that you will lose valuable time during which you farm. This will result in losing even more gold, and ultimately, delay your timings. Sadly, not participating in these fights is not as easy as it seems, especially in PUBs. It is probably the most elusive late-game carries in Dota 2 because he can use Blink and Counterspell to dodge enemy ganks.
Furthermore, he has a lot of magical resistance, which makes him great against heroes known for their nuking power. They think that AM is unkillable and often makes risky maneuvers that can have devastating consequences during the later stages of the game. So, one of the most important things you have to learn when playing with Anti-Mage is to know your limits.
Know when to jump in, jump out, and when you can be killed. As for the late game, there are a few heroes that you should be aware of, such as Phantom Assassin, Lifestealer, and Spectre.
They can safely buy items from Steam and then link their account with a website such as Dota 2 Wage and Dota 2 Lounge. An automated account is created for every transaction that only the site has access to. The account is entirely AI driven, and once a bet is placed the account will request the needed items from every party that is associated. Trades and wagers will not start until all parties have deposited the needed items into the account.
And that is basically how Dota 2 item betting works. That provides a sense of safety. All Dota 2 Lounge users have to link their Steam accounts, and the authentication is done entirely through Steam. For a first time user making an account, the typical Steam security measures will be in place. Users have to perform the 2 step verification process by supplying a code that is sent to their email to Dota 2 Lounge. Thus, signing up and logging in the Dota 2 Lounge involves the exact same procedure and process as signing into Steam.
Once the player has created an account and has managed to log in, their items will sync up with the site. A list of upcoming matches to gamble on will also be displayed. Here is a step by step process on how to bet on the Dota 2 Lounge: At the top of the page, there are two available options: Bets and Trades. By clicking on Bets, you will be taken to the upcoming matches section of the website. For example, we will choose the upcoming Vega vs Liquid match to wager on.
After clicking on the match, we are brought to the main screen of the match. It will remain entirely anonymous. Potential reward values will also be displayed here, and a live stream, the number of placed bets, the number of wagered items, as well as a ton of other important info. Now that we have found the proper match and linked our Steam Trade URL, we are able to place a wager!
You can bet up to four items at a time. Every item carries a monetary value based mainly on its rarity. After choosing Place Bet, you will be taken to the My Bets section of your account. It is there that the escrow account will be available for you and other users to deposit items.
Once everything has been deposited, the bet is finalized. Once that happens, you will no longer have access to your in-game items until the match is completed. Users can swap the team they prefer to wager on before the start of the match, but they cannot cancel the wager. Betting with Real Money Gambling has been around for quite a long time, growing in tandem with professional sports.
Since eSports keep rising in popularity, it was only a matter of time until bookies caught up with the growing trend. Famous bookmakers like Pinnacle, Bet, and Betway, have already established a massive presence. Unfortunately, this market is primarily limited to Asian and European countries because of the betting laws in America and abroad.
Is Gambling with Real-Money Secure? Inherently, gambling with real money will not be as safe as doing so with items. For starters, personal information has to be stored on these sites for withdrawal and deposit purposes. The safety of having all your details facilitated and stored through Steam is also not available.
For this reason, it is strongly stressed to perform because of diligence prior to placing a wager on any of these sites. And by this, you have to read a lot of good predictions from different legitimate forums around the Dota 2 bubble or on Reddit. However, there are those top global teams who always win every match that they participate, which in this case, you can say that your bet is safe with them.
And considering this, make your bet more on the best team that is good in these types of match formats. Always Consider The Odds In every match, there are highly favored teams that will likely win. Maybe because they are in a winning streak or they are one of the top 10 global teams.
And betting against them requires a lot of thinking and decisions to make.
