At the very least, he's an excellent pubstar hero. He can solo in lane, he's got excellent farming capabilities, and he's able to pick uncoordinated teams to shreds with ratdoto.

He's an excellent pubstar hero who happens to have a great WR in competitive

Which isn't saying much.

Lycan's actually not that strong. He's easily stoppable with a hero like warlock.

So I was looking at dotabuff and while the hero info shouldn't be taken too seriously, I was really surprised to see Mirana has a much better than 50% winrate and QoP has a much worse than 50% winrate.

I would actually assume the opposite in pubs since QoP is fairly easy to play with straightforward skills while Mirana has way less reliable skills (in pub games where coordination is harder to find). Is Mirana really that good that even pubs can do well with her now and is QoP somehow harder than she seems?

QoP isn't that easy to play for low level players. Too squishy, to many offensive blinks and even good ults aren't that easy to hit. Plus low level players are bad at punishing a bad mid match up.

mirana is amazing pub hero because pubs never consider random arrows, and rarely, if ever, have adaquete detection. I'm pretty sure mirana in pub would be over 50% win rate if she just hit level 6 and sat in the well only casting her ult.

In the pubs I play, pretty much every global spell hero would have a better time if they just went afk at fountain

I wasn''t saying it was good, I said that it was on the recommended list.

I am proud to say I only bought a soul ring in bane once and then saw the error of my ways. Never again.

And I always drop a couple points in nightmare, because nap time is great.

Blink dagger is core on bane simply because of the voice line that you can get sometimes.

I don't have a link but it's out there somewhere XD.

Bane has perfectly even base stats (22 all) with perfectly even stat growth (2.1 all). You can't tell him what to do he's equally good at everything! huehuehue

The rule of thumb is that you never buy aghs on heroes that are shitty at farming unless the effect is game-breaking (AA).
