If you are soloing against a melee it can be usefull for OD, he can make room for himself to be safe for 30 seconds. IMO 1 clarity can be worth those 50 gold. | ||

Rush tranquils on OD, never have problems with mana. At least I have never had problems with mana on him. But dunno, some people think I have pretty nice RNG luck | ||

But then there are those guys who cry all the time that they run out of mana.. Damn, it's good to be lucky, hi5! | ||

In very long laning phases, you will sometimes get 0-4-4-0 to dominate you lane, but it's quite typical that you will stop Astral at 2-3 and get orb and ult earlier at level 6-9 because you pretty much can't teamfight without having orb or ulti. | ||

YaphetS, 2009, and 820 have all made a point of this in their lesson videos--even if you clarity only ticks down about half before being broken, it's worth 50 gold. | ||

Incase you didnt notice, i ment in this special case (od) where an additional 100 mana doesnt really give u anything because your total mana-consumption is many times higher than any other hero in the game. The only occasion you can run out of mana is when u dont skill appropiate (skill imprison when high mana, skill aura when low mana) and dont have a buckler After aquiring Buckler you cant possibly go out of mana, and when you finish Mek you will have a big enough pool and enough points in Aura. | ||

LOL. Also sometimes i just love getting OD ult at level 6, in some match-ups mid with a low int enemy you can nearly one-shot them at level 6 if you have a few astrals on them. | ||

That 100 mana also goes further on OD than any other hero in the game. Aura increases the effective amount of mana that it is, and whenever you astral people you get a larger mana pool, which stretches that 100 mana even further. The point is that OD has a mana engine that just needs to be started. Clarities is just feeding that engine if you get unlucky or start astraling too early and too much. | ||

Carry mid that pretty much can't lose his lane should be the ideal pubstomper. At least, that's what I find for myself. . . | ||
