Besides there are tons of builds which allows some heroes to not be deadweight for 30+ minutes, like mana boots dagger tiny, phase drum spectre with max desolate is ridiculously strong when she hits level 7/8 etc etc, in fact outside of PL, void and AM I feel other heroes can really play their game without being the main focus of their own team.
To be honest even Void and AM can contribute at little at least. AM's ult is really good and Void has quite a good skillset even early on. They won't carry teamfights but they can definitely help.
PL is a special case I feel because he NEEDS attack speed to be able to get his illusions up.

His ult at least has some utility at level 6 and he can do something in any fight. AM just brings big right clicks after he farms forever.

You have to consider the cost it is for the carry first and foremost. Can you evaluate whether your going to contribute enough to win a fight? Where is the fight taking place? Do you have to tp for it and temporarily concede your free farm? Even if you won, does the amount of gold you spent on maybe a tp worth it? (You usually need more than one kill in early game) Do you have to spend time to go back to the well to resume your farm?
All of these things.

BS / Brood every single game. I faced new brood 2 times in test client and 4 minutes blue wards still makes her early laning a pain. BS global sight on half HP heroe is strong though. He's still very weak to TP.

Brood ? You mean NightStalker, right ? Enjoy your nightvision guys :D.

Brood will just be harder to kill since he'll run through cliff/trees. But spiderlings dont' have that ability... Will still feed them!
