Try out Lich, Enigma, TC, naix, Jugger and any durable str hero isn't mentioned yet can be used as hard laner(even thou not the best).

For BM, it is a good offlane for dire side but for radiant it requires more effort to pull off. Also can be stopped easily by smart warding.

Explain why Ogre Magi has yet to see more competitive gaming ? while he is a melee support and has Mana problems, he has the best support skill in the game with Bloodlust and you could say the best Synergy in Dota 2 with Stun, Area Slow (With Ignite multicast) and Spamable BloodLust, wich its great at any stage of the game

I really want to see more Ogre Magi

Juggernaut, Slark, Spiritbreaker, Treant, Clinkz are pretty decent offlaners too in pubs.

BM's an okay offlaner in a pub, but your kind of limited to dire side offlane because the radiant ancients are much further away from the lane. If your ancients get blocked then you're pretty much screwed.

Ogre Magi really needs level as a support or he'll drop off quickly. The level curve in competitive games isn't as "evenly distributed" as you would normally find in in pub play.

I often find that if you random gold any hero suddenly becomes decent offlaner in a pub.

Ogre Magi is pretty much solely played by Alliance in a niche tactic with Lone Druid (often paired with Magnus before the nerf)

none of his spells is really outstanding (except for bloodlust). a single target stun isnt all that great on a support and he needs so many levels for his ignite spell thingy to work, that once he got it, it wont matter as much anymore. similar to how venomancer is falling of the later the game goes and his slow is much much stronger.

i think the only time ogre really fits into a lineup is for some super 4 protect 1 (or everyone buffs the bear in alliance case). not many teams play it nowerdays.

Ogre Magi has seen an okay amount of play, but its usually involved with Lone Druid for bloodlust.

do you mean in pub play?

Sandking/undy/tide can break some pub safelane so well if you knew how to play the hero solo, you dont even need a stoutshield against some matchup. Even if you had poor farm your higher level would still be highly valuable for the team. Other than that you can do kupo's favourites like weaver/pl or the 'fun offlaners' like bara/aba/jugger. I hate to suggest Lich but it works if the oppo support was bad -_-

xiao8's ti3 offlane tide was actually fine if he didnt go farm when team needed his ulti multiple times i remember that >_<

OM also has a pretty awful casting animation. His setup stun can be painful to get into action.

His greatest strength, though, is letting his user constantly make puns throughout the game. THIS BATTLE IS OGRE!

in pubs you can actually build really retarded offlane duolanes that can even take on tris after like, they get 2-3 levels

Like Necrolyte and Death Prophet are actually both solid in that slot

They're pubs dude. No need to take it so seriously and go 1-1-3 TRILAENS EVERY GAEM

infact most pub trilanes are garbage, they won't even bring sentries to lane

Lich + a survivable off-laner (e.g. Lich + DS, Lich + WR) crushes like 90% of pub 2v2s and 2v3s since most pub trilanes don't actually know how to punish you and just bleed XP on their starved supports.

EDIT: There's a lot of stuff you can do with off-lane 2v2 even at a high level, it's just that people have played 1-1-3 for so long that off-lane 2v2 is like a forgotten art.
