So weird that I win the most with axe when I don't have a snowbally start and I just stay in jungle till I have my blink. | ||

Doesn't limit the purchase of the big items by too significant an amount, and can get you an extra attack or two off on a solo kill. 300 gold for an extra 100-150 damage. Not too bad. Bear in mind that in many cases it would only really give you an extra attack on people you didn't already have a movespeed advantage over with upgraded boots. | ||

You're going to be getting mana boots on Nyx unless you want to run back to fountain after every gank. 360 movespeed really isn't a ton, and you're going to be very close to the same movespeed as everyone who doesn't have Phase Boots. Orb of Venom will be slowing them by 30-40 movespeed, turning a what is a 10-speed advantage (you get a hit off every couple of seconds or so) into a Boots-speed advantage (you get off a hit every time your attack is off cooldown). It also limits their ability to juke and to run back into tower range, as well as doing a bit more damage on top of it. I think the slow does a lot more than you're making it out to. | ||

If you are already faster you were already going to get the extra hits without the OOV. | ||

I guess it's mostly because nowadays people tend to use strong words for something normal (like every mistake is named "throwing a game", etc.), trashtalking would be Fata saying "omg black is such a retard, he only knows how to PvE and is a total trash". What Fata did is simply his view on other player's style expressed in a form of constructive criticism. | ||

Until then, sorry, but you just dont get the world class tag until you prove your lineup can perform offline Although currently the pool of world class teams is pretty freakin small. Only [A] and Na'vi are truly world class ATM. Everyone else is fighting for the best of the rest. | ||

So in a solo vs solo matchup against someone AM has a movespeed advantage over this could work. You use your first hit to proc the OoV - drop the OoV so you can manaburn your target and then blink forward as well. You only need the first OoV proc in your chase to kill the other hero. Bonus points if you use your courier to pick up the OoV to deliver to you so you can proc it again when it runs out. Edit Wait, does manabreak proc over oov? Not familiar with that orb interaction for obvious reasons. | ||

Perhaps you use your first hit with OoV, then level up mana break to use that? | ||
