Every rule has their exceptions  Manta is just such a crazily good item in general for agility heroes.On November 15 2012 22:58 Gheizen64 wrote: Hearth on slark is wasted srsly. One of the few heroes where skadi's better. What? Heart on slark isn't wasted, he's a hero in dire need of raw HP which heart provides a whopping 1160 of where skadhi only provides 675. They are both decent items on him, heart is most definitely not a waste if raw HP is what you're looking for. Not to mention that heart synergizes surprisingly well with his ultimate when you are dodging in and out of combat in skirmishes. | ||

His use at levels 1-3 are quite mediocre since the range on burrow strike is simply too small. His teamfight presence relies on him getting a stun on multiple heroes or a good epicenter off. Unlike Tidehunter, you can't really offlane him. rubick | ||

I'll let you take a guess yourself at why it's not very intelligent to buy an item that reduces surviveability on a hero with already very little surviveability. If i had to make a build for slark it'd be something along the lines of: Treads,drums into possibly a naked vit booster which can be turned into a heart later on, and after the drum/vit booster i could imagine items like AC, Butterfly, Yasha(I think it's an amazing item just on its own, not sure how much slark benefits from manta, but you can't go wrong with manta on agility heroes so whatevs), heart, skadhi and BKB. Those sounds like some viable items to me, of course every game is different and might require different items, i can imagine slark being a decent diffusal holder for a team against heroes like omni and the likes. Been too long since i played slark myself. Lifesteal seems really intelligent if you can avoid getting bursted down. Lifesteal is incredibly good when you have low hitpoints, but a lot of effective health from armor. As an agility hero who steals agility Slark is going to have a lot of armor  How much does Slark rely on the movespeed from MoM in the sense that you could replace it with a helm? Naturally you also need to be able to stick on someone if you're relying on lifesteal. | ||

First off, his base agi is 15 +1.5 per level, which is somewhere between unbelievably bad and something far worse. The illusions that you make are not going to be doing much damage without a bit of help. So, the supposed help: His agi-steal on attack passive. Now, I haven't played with the hero so I'm not too well informed on how this works, but I'm assuming that his illusions won't proc this when they attack right? I also assume that the illusions only gain whatever agi you had stolen BEFORE you make them? So now you need to hit your opponent, say, 5 times before the agi steal actually means anything, THEN make illusions, THEN have those melee-range illusions whack your opponents when you have no slow or reliable way to catch them. Plus, there isn't even the bonus of taking off dust, since your hero kinda automatically does that anyway. So the active part of manta doesn't seem that good to me. I'd just keep the yasha and turn the ultimate orb into a skadi. I could definitely be wrong on the mechanics of his agi steal though. Actually, I guess the plan is to steal agi, THEN pounce the enemy hero into being stuck, THEN make illusions? that actually seems decent... Hmmm. Maybe I'm just horribly wrong. | ||
