Nyx nyx nyx nyx.

What do you guys go for in terms of boots on nyx?
I sometimes change it up and go tranqs(Combined with soul-ring), sometimes i don't up my boots at all till i get travels and sometimes i head for mana boots. And i've had varied success with the different boots.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Treads, Tranquils, Arcanes all fine depending on the game. Depends a lot on your role and the teams, as Nyx can play a lot of different roles on a team.

Don't get Soul Ring on Nyx unless you're in some strange position where you have to play a sidelane farmer Nyx. Bottle is better from mid, and if you're a support, investing 800 into an item with zero fighting stats early game is a somewhat awkward buy.

Random meepo twice in a row.

Ok, maybe ONE repick is ok...
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

arcanes pretty much always, phase is okay if you're mid and have rune control but honestly it's not as good
his mana pool is too small and you don't want to make fountain trips all the time

Isn't orchid awkward, as you can't amplify your ulti damage ?

Urn is the most natural followup for Nyx after his upgraded boots, and it's a lot more practical than the Bracer.

Using ulti to initiate isn't reliably safe most of the time. Orchid -> stun -> vendetta can still maximize damage and gives a useful disable in team fights.

Urn is probably better than bracer but I'm a cheapskate.

Nyx can easily "snowball" when against the right heroes. Dagon 5 all the way, and feed on the same heroes you've been killing over and over.

"NYX NYX NYX buhahahah"

Vendetta + Dagon 5 + impale = 1700+ dmg , add to this 350+ hits from mana burn vs int heroes in late game
Basicly you can combo kill every int hero in the game at around 20+ lv . And all this in 2-3 sec ?

Add to this good impale hit on multiple heroes , just so good

Technically, yes you can at Level 16+, as the duration and cooldown are the same (50 secs). Cast Vendetta, wait 45-48 seconds, attack hero, cast again after 2-5 seconds, hit again.

I guess Vendetta (wait 45+ secs) -> Attack -> Impale -> Mana Burn -> Vendetta -> Attack -> Dagon 5! (leaving this last would be helpful due to the immediate cast time and insane long range)

That's exactly what I did in one game. Burst down doom to 10% with double vendetta and all that jazz, get doomed, run away, entire team runs after me in disorder, my team dives in and GG
