Also I've been enjoying DK and morph a lot lately. What are your guys opinions on Eblade on morph, and what item build is good for DK? I've been going treads, domi, armlet, bkb, AC. satanic, but not really sure if that's the right way to build him. On morph I've been having a lot of fun with early Eblade but it seems kinda bad if the game goes into late game. | ||

Was wondering if someone could maybe give a list or a link to one of what are actual strong carries and what are just pubstomp heroes that aren't actually strong. Same for supports/gankers if possible. I'm finding it really interesting how a lot of the heroes that seem to do very well in pubs and be very popular turn out to not actually be good at high level play.

I dislike Ethereal Blade on morph, since you only get a bit of burst dmg and then you're unable to attack for some time (unless you use BKB). DK: Chinese DK's usually get Ptreads, Hood/Vanguard (depending on enemy composition), sometimes Drums, Assault Cuirass, BKB - and usually the game ends there. | ||

Manta Style also removes the EBlade active from yourself. EBlade is situational on Morph. Either you get it because the teams in question make high burst damage very effective, or the EBlade active is likely to get high effectiveness against certain enemy carries. | ||

Usually they will get Pipe if there are no Pipe holders and they need it, then BKB then Mjolnir/AC. After that item choice usually gets situational. eb on morph is very strong. if you have a very strong morph you can knock supports out of teamfights immediately, especially if they are out of position | ||

It just seems to work really well with Fatal Bonds. I know it doesn't boost the HP Reduction damage of bonds itself, but 20% of x*1.25% is a larger number. It seems like you end up dealing a lot of extra damage overall. Plus with Warlock's ult you're pretty much sure to be able to get off a good Veil. Take a 300 damage AoE nuke vs a team with no magic resistance (optimistic, but still). It normally does 225 damage, with veil it does 281 damage, that's +56 damage per target hit or 280 damage if you hit the whole team. Now if we have everyone bonded together we also deal 20% of that 56 damage as additional bond damage or another 220 damage if you hit the whole team (but nothing else). So that seems not too shabby, +500 damage from a single aoe magic damage spell by having fatal bonds & veil. On top of that this also applies to the Immolation aura from the ultimate. The 50dps burn goes up to 62.5dps (before reduction). Sure it's not as good as having a 2nd burn aura around from a 2nd golem, but the veil is much cheaper and pretty damn easy to build. | ||

Also, his ultimate provides additional lane control and is a decent stun if chained correctly. His Grave Chill is also amazing for setting up ganks. | ||
