it is literally impossible to gank you if you have decent map awareness, which means you can play him as a pusher and farmer to make space for your other carrie(s). usually i'm not even winning my midlane but still come out ahead when i get a 15-20min linkens or mkb/daedalus. also you can do amazing plays when using your ultimate right. love this hero. 1150xpm/800gpm last game | ||

Absolutely trash item for him. The regen is overkill because Bottle/Aquila/Urn in some combination covers Shukuchi usage. And the long period of time where you have absolutely no combat stats because you got RoH/Void/Perseverance wastes one of Weaver's strengths which is the strong midgame teamfight power of his spells. Have no idea why Linken's is on Weaver's recommended items. | ||

On another note, warlock ulti with aghanim/refresher looks hilarious :D (and is pretty damn effective) | ||

On another note, warlock ulti with aghanim/refresher looks hilarious :D (and is pretty damn effective) Until they fix the bug where magic immunity/purges removes dust in DotA 2, BKB does more to make you unkillable than Linken's. | ||

I am a mathematics major so I can confirm that 100% is a very high winrate. | ||

The onus isn't on them to punish you though because Weaver isn't a strong lategame carry. The onus is on you to find opportunities to participate in midgame teamfights and snowball the game, and good luck doing that with a Perseverance rather than items with real fighting stats. | ||
