No. It used to be you could do that (target the hero) and your hero would rotate while casting to make sure the target was hit. Now, impale is ground targetted so you need to establish where you think the enemy hero will be in 0.4 seconds (nyx's cast time) when the impale finishes casting. Plus a very small travel time that you don't need to worry about. Note that impale is pretty wide in the grand scheme of things. This was a fairly recent nerf to nyx. | ||

If you want to guarantee the stun then you should impale instead of backstabbing out of vendetta although this can still miss if they're moving. You should be able to line it up though. | ||

Instead you'll have to predict where the target will run. Further away, the movement of the target doesn't change the angle as much. You'll still be able to miss though. | ||

You should be able to line it up though. Most pros seem to prefer impaling straight away, since good players are able to dodge it otherwise. Landing a 2 man impale is much more valuable than vendetta damage most of the time. | ||

It is easier to hit then hook while you are in range so it is usually fine if you have backup coming to help you. This will force them to run in a predictable angle and the impale hit shouldnt be to hard. When you on the other hand have to get it out asap things get dicey to say the least. | ||

Wouldn't anyone with an escape skill would just get away though and anyone with a stun/slow you'd be reliant on using carapace at the right time. | ||

EDIT: by shouldn't I mean it wasn't like that before and that if it really is like that right now they should change it back to how it used to be. | ||
