I dont think Acid Spray hurts zombies, but yes those spiderlings are worth a ton of gold to Alc

When playing alche you should do this
anyway, use all smoke and gank, basically gank very hard like normal but then when out of smoke, farm hard
|
Sure Alch can benefit from those match ups really well, but he's not a direct counter to those heroes.
Don't even need acid spray, I think there's a video of SingSing or someone finding the gold bonus on Zombies and practically celebrating

max greed stack, tombstone is your atm

I never said anything about acid spray hurting zonks. They are 1 hit kills and give bounty, that's the part alch likes. Much much much more than alch likes furions treants.

Even though alch's right click is really strong (with the BAT) his stat growth is awful and his other abilities don't really scale into lategame compared to stuff like backtrack, feast, etc. so that (similarly to anti-mage) you have to use Greed to cap out on items faster than your rival carry (assuming it's something like naix or void that don't farm as quickly without the help of midas or bfury) because once your BKB gets down to 5 seconds you won't have a reliable way to get your rightclicks off against a team with a decent amount of disables. I admit this is true for most carries but Alch's calling card is his strong right click and farming speed so I think it applies more than most.

I'm just waiting until a pro team uses support alchemist successfully. I tried it once and it feels like it has potential.

He's still a ridiculously hard carry, the huge BAT reduction and effectively permanant heart level regen and -armour. Just to go with it a 4 second stun make him damn strong as a hard carry really.

As long as one gets basher/abyssal it feels like even on even farm alch has a slight edge, as long as he has ult up ofc.

had a game once where my friend was doing roaming alch with maxed stun and eventually got shadowblade to get max stuns in fights, was good

iirc pasarel from TEG used to play alchemist rushing meka or pipe and in general support/teamfight items.
