There was theory crafting on Dota Insight of using Bloodseeker ult to lock down an AM, since there is no way to stop it and he would be totally fucked if he blinked. I have no idea why they would pick him against a PL. Or maybe they just want to lose? Damn it, they have won  BS in the 1 slot is better than BS in the mid. Bloodrage dispel isn't insignficant either. | ||

I really think caster sniper is the way to go on that hero. I like how easily you cant take towers early with shrapnel and I find that Sniper is one of the heroes that can use mana regen the most. His ultimate has such a low cooldown and high manacost that you really can't have enough mana regen on him. And if you have a lot of mana regen it's really hard for the enemies to fight you... Whenever you see a hero, just ult him, if you ult the same hero twice, he's almost dead and can't possibly participate in a teamfight, until he heals up. It's almost as annoying as kotl's illuminate when trying to push highground against. When you go for a rightclicking sniper, I feel like you just can't do this, because you're constantly out of mana. Btw, pretty sure Era never played WC3 DotA. He played a lot of HoN tho, ofc. | ||

That was sort of the idea as well, since Anti-mage gets a lot of his tankyness from being resistant to magic and fucking squirley. An Anti-mage that cant move is a sad anti-mage. But it was all theory crafting, so it could be terrible. Although I do want to see someone hit NP with rupture right when he teleports. | ||

Like you see Mushi doing these crazy dives he escapes with 1 auto-attack left until he dies. He's not sitting there counting the damage of 3-4 spells + auto-attacks before he goes in, you just get that feeling of how much things will hurt when you've played a lot. | ||

so 3/1/1/1 @ 6, 4/1/4/2 @ 11. He was mid sniper with bottle rush into treads/shadowblade/mkb in that order.

Doesn't work, its just like a TP scroll (unless he goes less than 1600 distance or soemthign). | ||

Just think of the number of times he tried that and failed in the process of learning exactly when to jump out. And learning it so well he just does it by instinct. | ||

I know, unless he jumped a tiny distance it wouldn't work. Better to silence him with the bloodrage, but I am not even sure that would work. This is why the pros and the pros, because they don't need to look this stuff up. | ||

I find it more important than the extra range in most cases, you still have 550 range, which is not awful, you won't really get bullied by 600 range enemies, I don't think. early on the ministun is more valuable than the 25 damage you'd gain from a second level of headshot. the range lets you not die as a hero that dies when he gets ganked. | ||
