The problem is that you are still useless pre-atos barring some ults for gank purposes, but atos is like 3100 gold (way more than blink), but its not insanely good like blink is. Plus BKB etc. Plus it delays your Aghs which is I think the real draw to AA these days.  . The issue with Omni is that EVERYTHING is always your fault lol. | ||

Also all heroes cited so far are super fun to play Tinker isn't bad - you just have to get into a certain rythm. If you're unsure how to lane him/not having success with it, then you can just ancient stack and shit. Sure it's not the most efficient, but you can do it. | ||

If you're not rushing Agha, Mek or Force Staff should be priorities. The hero isn't a gank hero. He's a teamfight hero, so it makes most sense to buy teamfight items. | ||

Yes yes atos is bad i was just thinking out loud. I came to the conclusion it was bad myself  Running a support who can't roam effectively is also unfortunate (I mean, I guess AA can gank a lane that already has a reliable stun but... who can't?). You have to roam with a setup buddy and at that point you are already kinda past pub reasonability as well as being strictly worse than something like a lesh for what you are doing. Supports can't just sit in lane and zone/pull like 6.78 so you can't run something quite so useless at ganking (and level dependant) like AA. I guess in a dual lane situation with a partner like clock you could make it happen but... ewwww that seems bad again. Heroes that do fucknothing by themselves at all stages of the game just aren't fun for me. | ||

Ember...has an atrociously bad last hitting animation for a melee. I dislike playing Ancient Apparition as well but I find Omniknight fun. | ||

It's not just the lack of results, it's also the constant DDoS issues that mean they never get to play. Isn't it more of the team managements fault if they can't set up a proper proxy to secure their players from these attacks? Getting rid of their Dota 2 team would be ridiculous, if EG want's presence in the scene anyway. | ||

I had some issues with fog as well, where the FOW wouldn't appear. I was downhill the river and the fog in the opposing teams uphill wouldn't be there but the units would unveil if I walk uphill like normal, it's disorienting. The projectile bug is bad. | ||
