EPTim not saying she cant be support but that she would phase out standard support is just ridiculous.

First bit item is clearly orchids, but I'm not sure what to get before that. I would prefer to get treads anyway, so I'm looking at soul ring, medaillon, ring of basilius and the like. I can tell without trying that a basi alone will not give close to enough mana, so aquila will not be happening. Need that sage mask to make one of the other mana items. Any better ideas? Ps: I still want to transition into a dps lategame build, hence an orchid instead of a bloodstone/sheepstick PPs: "Don't play sniper" is not advice, neither is "go dagon/blink/euls blinking and slamming sniper" If you absolutely want to go that god (awful) build, then you need a Soul Ring. No chance of getting by without it. Then proceed into the normal sniper items. SB, Yasha, Deso, Crit, etc | ||

That sentence sounds like it came straight from Yango. And it doesn't actually hold true for spells that cost 120 mana with a 15 second cooldown. | ||

I don't think there are a lot of heroes that excel in lanes against duo stuns, Naga Siren doesn't seem much worse than any other hero in that regard. | ||

You can drop out the drums, leave out the RoB, or even go manta first in some games. Honestly, though, I'm not sure how to build Sniper. He's a weird hero. | ||

Put her in a lane that IS strong like tl did with wr and kotl and you don't have a weak lane at all. Double stun lanes are good yes, but naga works just as well in said lanes due to her damage output + lockdown. | ||

I have literally never had issues with that build. i mean maybe i run out of mana if i don't get any runes or ever bottle crow once, after i take the t1 mid. but.. | ||

The much more diabolic use of mana for sniper is to spam assassinate on enemies though. Cooldown of just 20 seconds for an infinity range nuke is just plain evil. Mana sniper felt overall much more impactful during the first 16 levels of the game. And just now I found out that you can display advanced tooltips by holding alt. Holy crap, has that been there the whole time? | ||
