How to stack ancient creeps in Dota2 - Man Standing on a Stone Wall

I know you can stack regular creeps by getting them from their camp before next minute, so that if they are not in camp for example between 9:59 - 10:00 new creepts will spawn there.

However this doesn't always work for ancient creeps. Sometimes they spawn, sometimes not. Why? Is the timing different there?



Best Answer

Here is a virtual map of the game.

You can tick the box under the Overlays section to toggle on Neutral Camps Spawn Boxes.

The trick is to have all of the ancients outside of this box to make another camp spawn. I usually pull around the x:53 mark.

You can also use this virtual map to practice placing wards to see what does and doesn't block the neutral camps.
