Seems like games now are a race to how many books you can get, and even better if your heroes synergizes with it. Whoever has more generally will win. I don't know if I agree with this, it depends on context. I don't think Necrobook is that good of an item in terms of contributing to team fights for it's cost (level 2 and especially level 3). Enmassing Necrobooks puts the defending team (from a push or preparation for breaching the racks) into an uncomfortable position of having to engage in the attacking team's terms or they risk just losing their structures. | ||

I have a feeling in my gut IF will revert the buff to Necro soonish, or change it in some way. | ||

Don't knock it until you've tried it. It's so far out of the metagame that lanes simply crumble. | ||

Boots first with random gold is reasonable on any support that has roaming kill potential in pubs. After that it comes down to your execution. | ||

Hopefully it's a different nerf. I think removing last will damage from melee Necro might be good? At least you don't have to think twice about killing it ASAP. Or if they insist on leaving that, at least make it that it's halved between the two Necro units. | ||

I'm ok with a single Necro being strong, the main thing about this version is how good the item is in multiples, which has a lot to do with how multiple Necros are very unlikely to die to incidental AoE damage with 40% magic resistance.

Is there a mid game anymore? I'm pretty serious about this as well. I'm not trying to be a downer, I like several of the changes but I feel 6.79 has taken something away from the game. I just have a hard time of explaining what exactly it is.. | ||

This goes back to my point that there's more at stake in winning and losing team fights as well as avoiding getting picked off. There is less margin for error. | ||

WTF DOES A MIDAS ON A BOUNTY DO it gives him tons of exp. more exp -> more levels and he does pretty good things with levels. more track gold, more shuri toss damage, longer stealth duration and lower fade time, and more crit. midas has stopped being about gold for most heroes, and never really was for furion or druid or n'aix--or even alchemist to a decent extent. | ||

I'm not convinced that it's generally worth it, but given that Bounty's primary contribution (at least for the first 20-30 minutes) is item-independent, getting something that boosts his levels and gets that all important level 2/3 of track can be helpful. | ||
