Still, old radiance was good because of 90minutes ricing fests. Sure the nerf didn't help, but I don't think putting back evasion would make it good again. Either : Make it an upgrade for a big item like abyssal or make it so you can build it and be useful fast. | ||

Many heroes are mana starve early game, it hurts them a lot, later it's so spammable you can farm faster with it, it's great at killing escaping ennemies, it breaks sieges from ennemies, it gives you mana which is equal to HP. My favorite skill build is snake stats snake stats snake ulti snake mana shield x2 then max ulti split shot stats.It's timed so you can always clear creep waves fast. >Many heroes are mana starve early game Pushes lane, doesn't drain that much mana, can be dodged unless you use it directly on the enemy in which case it's a weak nuke. >later it's so spammable you can farm faster with it Later you don't need it to farm faster because you can clear waves with Splitshot (which is not delayed compared to a snake stats build). >it's great at killing escaping ennemies Okay, so? That's not Dusa's job. Gyro rocket is also good at killing escaping enemies, still almost no one skills it beyond 1. >it breaks sieges from ennemies You can autoattack waves, you also have teammates with aoe spells. >it gives you mana which is equal to HP If it hits less than 3 enemies you lose mana on cast, if it hits 3 you go about even. You only actually gain mana if you hit more than that. As I already said, going snake stats makes you easier to gank early and squishier in early teamfights as well as take more harass in lane and delays your Splitshot. Also I have no idea why you would leave Mana Shield on level 2. | ||

I guess it goes with the style that tanky heroes built radiance, but it still was really weird. Lorely speaking it made sense. You're all shiny and stuff so people are blinded and miss you. When you are tanky, 8% evasion is pretty good. This radiance is quite insipid... | ||

Tons of good spells are easy to dodge, I still max powershot 1st on wind... Faster is always better when you're a farming whore Happily enough it does not give back full mana, it still does damages you know... You're not always with your mates early game, they can pressure enenmies's carry and in return they will pressure you. You see them coming to you, you back, they're close of their creep wave, land snake on closest creep and the following support/solo hard lane will lose a big chunk of his life if he takes the last shot. Your ulti gives your mates tons of time to TP, Mana shield level 2 is because it will delay split shot too much and after split shot and ulti are maxed I usually have around the same amount of life and mana, so I don't need a better ratio. | ||

I usually have around the same amount of life and mana, so I don't need a better ratio. Why does this matter at all? The only reason you wouldn't care about a better ratio is if you were running out of health before mana and this isn't possible in dota barring some crazy circumstance like kotl+5 arcane boots. | ||

This hero is extremely powerful from early to mid if you build him (both skill and item) correctly. Getting a super fast Mek and then another major item in the first 15-20 minutes wins games. Games where I random Necro is like an automatic easy win. | ||
