So far my pattern is that I pick her as a core, tell everyone I'm gonna go mid, have everyone agree except one guy, and that guy last-picks a mid when what we need is another support, so I end up being irritating and sorta supporting in lane, but also not really buying any support items, and then ending the game with the second-most CS on the team and carrying the hell out of everyone. | ||

From there it depends on what I need, though I'm finding I'm going Ghost Scepter more and more often after that. I want to try Maelstrom sometime. And I've tried Phase and liked it, though I'd probably go 4-1-4-1 if I went Phase. I'm also tempted to try Shadowblade instead of Blink. There's a lot of room for interpretation. | ||

I think DP and Viper would just be awful, awful to kill. And you might see core Lion/Lina more often for the magic burst. Tinker would be valued for the magic kabooms. It's also possible that people might not tank up as much because they feel more secure in their armor protecting them, and ET would be super good, but most heroes that want to get Shiva or AC would be stupid hard to kill. | ||

Easier way to buff physical damage resistance across the board would just to increase the amount of armor each point of Agi provides, that's doable in War3, I believe? | ||

And I mean, all it would buff them against is carry heroes with low agility gain come late game. It's not like the current metagame problem is high-agility heroes struggling against strength carries. We're not looking to nerf Sven and Slardar so that Terrorblade and Phantom Lancer can shine. | ||

There's already a few things that are basically "this is technically impossible in War3, but you can fudge a solution that's kind of ok", going all the way back to Centaur's reworked Ultimate two years ago. | ||

Especially in the meta of pick void every game, a super long range support that loves euls seems like a good option either with or against the stupid purple monster. | ||
