Hey yango, Erasme.
Did you read the pro comments about 6.80?
Bulba and Qojqva can't wait to play Aghanim's Tinker.

That's all.


You can start this shit when they actually buy Agh's in a real game.

Also, I don't know about everyone else but I'll wait for opinions from players on a winning team.

Until then, an item that has 0 impact on Tinker's split-push capabilities is closer to worthless than not.

I don't really see why you would have to wait for pros to use a certain item before you can deem it as correct or incorrect.
Point in case: Na'vi's vanguard vlads pl a year ago or so?
or the fact that no-one was picking up medallion on alch like a year or so ago.
Just think for yourself.

as i said, it's situational

vs broodmother it's a very good item to go after your core

it's also very good for extanding your farm/split pushing. And if that is what you need at that point, then why not get it

I would say 90% of my Meepo games had an Earthshaker counterpick and winning against that was borderline impossible imho. The only chance to win was by building Blink+Hex before Aghs and praying to god the Earthshaker had terrible positioning.
The other 10% of my games were really easy once I figured out how to play him though.

pick later and try mek first, works pretty good with the pushing meta that ive been having in current pubs

I do the other route. I let my team make mek and do the pushing in other lanes, while I just constantly farm the jungle and don't show up til I have treads, agha, dagger at minimum.

While you can contribute somewhat and get a few gank kills with a blink dagger rush, I feel like you're so damn good at pushing the other lane and killing the entire jungle by yourself. You play kinda like an earlier peaking antimage, just taking all the space in the world the first 15-20 minutes of the game, and then win in the next 10-15.
I speak fluent sarcasm.

Tinker Aghsnims seems better than what it first looked like. I haven't played with it, but Dendi was testing it a lot on his stream. It really changes the way tinker works in a teamfight. Before, you would get a dagon or a shiva, which means you have to get close to the enemies to do damage, and that's obviously dangerous for a hero like Tinker. Aghanims is the exact opposite, you get to sit much further back and just rocket and 1k range laser people. Really cool item, I expected it to be useless at first.

pretty sure its one of his better items in more serious games.

Unless it's some kind of highground-quelling blade in Dire Jungle, it's more than likely shit (it's likely shit eitherway)
