I've gone carry ES several times, always a blast. Well, by always, I mean some of the time when it works. I like going mid and go for early Shadow Blade. When you get farmed well enough, it ends up being so satisfying seeing the very large crits early game.

Shadow blade doesn't help you with critting, enchant totem affects only base damage.

Qojqva plays mid critshaker and gets a bottle. You need something for mana and if you're safelane farming, basi is a better choice than bottle. You're not getting runes and you can toggle the aura to push if you have an opening.

Didn't say it did I said getting farmed up results in nice crits, not the addition of Sb. It for me adds to the combo so right click bonus damage into totem stompage.

Not to mention the mana cost of shadowblade which is huge for critshaker compared to 0 mana blink.

Comes down to preference for me. They both have their uses and merits. Depends on how you want to play it and the impact of the match. Just having the idea of invis can change the dynamic of a match. Same with knowing a hero has blink dagger. Sure one is probably more worthwhile than the other but in all honesty, by virtue of going carry ES, you are already acknowledging that you wish to go with a variance on the norm.

Essentially I see it as this; if going to argue based on merits of worth, than might as well not bother going carry anyway.

the biggest thing on a crit shaker imho isnt that BAM crits solely.
giving shaker solo exp and farm just makes him a damn beast.

dropping level 11 ult midst the enemys supports, which are often pretty low level is so fucking devastating.
you also cant really miss that dunk, because of your blinkdagger.

and after you already have all your core items, you build the crit dagger.

The only problem I'm having is reaching Blink Dagger. I'm 13 minutes and still got 1800 gold to go

deso will give your enemy -7 amor and increases your damage by 60.
that should answer your question.

i think shaker should be able to kinda flashfarm the jungle.
droppinng 1-2 fissures into a stack will kill it right?

Big creeps can have up to 1.1k hp, lvl4 fissure does 275 damage, so you need a bit more.
