I Enjoy the new hud, looks polish and still good looking (and This is someone who does not care about graphics at all, dota for me could be 256 colours and I would still love the game per se). About the icons, I share the same opinion of the above poster. Classy icons are the best imo, so that you can recognize them in the blink of an eye (besides the fact that I'm sure I'm going to swear a lot before actually recognize the new items on mates, enemies and shop - in particular in the one with a single window). Still hoping there will be a mod that will bring dota wc3 graphics into dota2 T.T

How do you guys build Panda?

Recently i had a game where i farmed like mad so i rushed the Dagger (<15 min with Treads or somethign like that). But i just could not support it with the Manapool? I had some bad luck with getting quick kills from the early Dagger (more an ES on my team that fissured BAD and saved 3-4 enemy heroes which would have been kills otherwise ^^)

Even with completed Agha i was constantly low on Mana... It really got to the point where i tought about getting Battlefury first on him ^^ (because Battlefury is the most underrated item ever on any melee hero there is :p)..

Well.. How do you build him? Dagger first seems not to be the way?

Drums, soul ring, dagger, aghanim.
That's how i will usually build him, but it depends on enemies too.
But drums dagger and aghanim is still what i'm aiming for in 90% of the games.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

If you didn't have a magic stick you should get one it is under rated how much regen they can give especially on strength heros like panda. Bottle is also not bad alwell

The other common mistake is that people don't get enough points in stats at early levels. Brawler and Haze don't become good till later levels, so 1 point Brawler before 6 should be all you get of either skill till around level 9 or 10.

The Soul Ring regen is straight up overkill. Bottle should be enough and saves you 275 gold.

Yea, you can't really rush straight to blink. If you are solo mid and can have rune control, then bottle is a good solution to your mana woes, or else go arcanes instead of phase. Soul ring is slightly excessive, you don't need to spam clap, just use it in fights. And stick is great :D no reason not to get it on him since he wants to be in early fights anyway.

OH and urn is good if no one else is getting it.
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

I don't like it that much, mostly because there are 15+ seconds of a fight where you have no access to your urn. That's 2-3 urn charges that someone else could have been capable of casting.

Realistically the best Sobi Mask based regen item for Panda is going to be Basilius, which he will turn in to Vlad's later anyway.

You do get charges while in ulti form IIRC. Or am I completely wrong? :S

If I'm not wrong, you can use those extra charges after the fight to heal, or while chasing. It isn't optimal, but in pubs no one else will get it and its better than no urn.

If you don't get charges while ulti, then thank goodness I've only played a couple of games and those games I played with friends who went urn

Thats right! I was going to try out basi on him. Early game is gives good m.regen, then later on it gives armor to your ulti which is hard to get (since you can't get items on them).

I think you do, but I don't like holding onto charges in fights for heals at the end.

One other thing is if you get Bottle, remember to keep Bottle-Crowing it midgame. Don't just run around with an empty bottle. Realistically midgame people will be saving for bigger items, farming will slow down, and wards/smokes will be on CD so the courier will actually have more time to Bottle-Crow for you.

i didn't like it at first glance but if you think about the nordic lore, it is actually should be a small-ish hammer.
