Got a clock short lane with void(me) vs doom venom... spam rocket like no tmr and dont know how to pull... result i get no farm and he got killed 4 times bc lane pushed too far... ~_~. Btw, is midas a good alternative for battle fury on void? Yes, in public games where the other team doesn't have an obvious push lineup. You get 6/11 of a hyperstone and +100gpm for 1/3 of the price of BF. Attack speed is great for void and you can do something like midas/treads/vanguard/damage items. Ignore anyone who says you get BF for AOE damage in chrono... void is all about destroying a hero (or two) while his team is disabled. If the hero you're attacking is chrono'd you're probably using that spell wrong. | ||

Can't really think of much use for it for anyone else though, there's too many good caster items. I can't really see a time where Rod of Atos is a good pickup unless its like ur 5th-6th item on OD and the game has gone that late. | ||

You put the pressure on as the first 30 minutes of the game AM is useless in a teamfight unless he gets a lucky ult off on one of your intel heroes. Take the outer towers, maintain map control with aggressive warding, and just outfarm him with your tower gold/map control advantage. | ||

If he goes midas first he should die when you look at him. That's basically how you have to do it. He's so weak that you can burst him down within one stun cycle I think with 2/3 heroes. | ||

about AM thing: you have to counter him from the pick phase and get a legit line up with pushing power and early map control. Once getting all tier 1, you have to ward their jungle to control the farm of their carry. Thats why AM picking is a coin flip move in pub: either you farm up and carry your team or your team gona roll over and die before you could farm up. There are much better alternative pick instead of AM such as naix (lv 2 gank+jungle), ursa(rosh+jungle), huskar(lane control) for pub than AM. Especially naix as he is dangerous in all part of the game but late game and he could farm midas pretty fast if stack pull and gank correctly. | ||
