How do you prevent the enemy team from just diving you? Is it just the threat of ice path? On April 04 2014 03:04 Comeh wrote: I actually love picking rubick against SB. Unless the SB is a baller and picks up a Shadow Blade, then I'm screwed. Disruptor against SB is also hilarious. | ||

Does not compete with high speed SB vs Rubick chase scenes, complete with enough time to type "So... where we goin?" in all chat as you charge after the SB towards wherever the fuck AND does not compete with letting SB charge hit, letting him queue up his ult, lifting him stealing his ult and then mashbashing him in the face with it. | ||

To be frank I only ever tried jaki offlane while playing with friends, so vs opponents that are supposedly worse than me. It was kind of a joke post. But still, I wanted to point out how very strong liquid fire is whether while pushing or in the laning phase, and it's a skill that is often overlooked. Normally you would prefer maxing his team fighting spells earlier if you're playing support, but in the offlane you should max it. Basically you survive the offlane by playing defensive the first few levels with boots first, but get liquid fire lvl 1 and manfight if the support wants to zone you and the carry isn't able to help, and then take over the lane through sheer harrass with glorious fire dmg. I guess you play it kinda like phoenix except you dont have icarus dive to fall back on, but your harrass/tankiness is a little higher early on. Try it sometime on a non-ranked game if you want, it's quite fun. TL;DR : liquid fire = OP skill on a not so good hero. | ||

If you are mid you level fast enough that the CD isn't a huge deal. Glaives is 600 attack range and only needs to be leveled once (meaning it doesn't interfere with leveling your nukes). Liquid Fire is 400 attack range and needs to be maxed to be really strong. It's pretty questionable to me that you'd consider Liquid Fire better. Especially in AD, where most of the work of winning the game is done by 3+ nuke heroes and having to commit to leveling a non-nuke skill hurts your strength a lot. | ||
