I mean, you only really want to start jungling either when you're close to, or after you have Blink Dagger. You're really strong on the lane, and the a large reason you want to start clearing jungle with him is because not being in a lane creates pressure for everyone if you have Blink. | ||

If he isn't picked often, why not? dont buy too much in TLIH... there is a different between pub meta game and high level meta game. TL-IH is just any -cm mode you got in match making: no chen enchan ban and mass pub rape heroes like NS or BH. | ||

Chen and Enchantress are by far my best heroes. In my last 80 non chen/ench games I have a 42% win rate, my last 30 chen/ench games im 76%. Invoker is a distant 3rd (with more than 25 games played) and he is at 54%. I can definitely see NS and BH being frequent pickups though. Tough to beat those heroes if skill is equal vs equal. It requires coordination which is pretty infrequent in pubs. | ||

I've gotten to the point with her where stomping is inevitable so I have started trying troll builds. You would be surprised how hilarious Armlet+MoM is. | ||

That is probably why my Venomancer is 5 bars right now since I use the plague wards as warding for entire matches. Perhaps that is one of the main factors for determining performance (since wins does not really seem to influence it). That might mean support might on average have higher performance than other types (of course, that is only a theory though). | ||

Chen, when played correctly, can have a huge impact on a game... | ||

Indeed, I managed to get mid and bot raxes earlier in <25mins just cause my team actually pushed with me and having a Shadow Shaman helps. Alot of pubs don't know how to react to chen and you can easily get t1 and t2 towers in the first 10 minutes if you get some luck with creeps and ganks. | ||

I usually have to go vanguard simply to stay alive and scepter is well, a no brain er. But I have never gone manta. I love playing as venomancer though; the hero is the only one I managed to maximize my performance in the game. Granted, I do not think that means much haha. But still, I enjoy playing veno so much. What was your starting build skill wise? As i'm new to dota, i play at the lowest level so maybe thats why it works  | ||
