IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Treads most common, Arcanes work if you're behind or with certain teamcomps, I've seen Phase on some SEA Pucks as well but I haven't seen/played it enough to know when it's good.

Really any Boots can be good on that hero, it depends a lot.

Phase can be a really good choice in a 1v1 lane that isnt middle for example versus natures prophet, clockwork, windrunner. This could also be said for almost any hero playing 1v1 and isnt in the middle. That massive extra damage and movespeed that can be easily picked up from the side shop can give you a significant advantage if you get to them first.

Sometimes I stick on brown boots if I feel blink timing is really really important that particular game.

I'm not a pro puck however.

I'm a major Phase Boots hater... I don't buy it often at all, and heroes that generally get Phase, I don't see why Treads won't be better. Especially semi-carries/carries like PA, Jugg, NS, TA, etc...

I understand the benefits of it for sure, but maybe it's just me...

They do different things. Most of the games where I'd think one is good, I think the other is not that good.

In the case of the heroes you mentioned, it depends a lot on the enemy team. Treads are outright better than Phase for man-fighting frontliner heroes, but in many cases those aforementioned heroes will begin fights chasing/engaging on backline support/caster heroes. In which case, the attack speed has very little use (and the MS and damage from Phase have more use) because you're not fighting them straight up, you're chasing them down.

I love me phase boots. Like with Sf, a lot (or most) go for treads but I originally learned to play him with phase and it feels most natural. Treads tend to be the safe bet in general but phase can be such a joy.
