Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

You'd be amazed at what Orchid can do on Viper vs the right heroes (ex. AM)

Theres nothing Orchid can do thats worth spending 2k gold on irrelevant stats.

Its a fantastic item for a lot of heroes that can use the regen, but Viper isn't one of them.


Mabye you'd think otherwise as soon as you get an aghanims after.

Hm...I'm tempted to try that out in the Dendi build with MoM-->Aghanim's

But, a viper with aghanim doesn't need the mana regen really, you wont be spamming your ult everytime it's off cooldown, only when fighting enemy heroes and 125 mana + 12 second cooldown means that in most fights you'll get off 2~4 maybe in some cases 5 ults, 5 ults = 625 mana.
Viper with aghanim wont go oom from that.

I'm guessing its used more for the damage tick after the orchid and not for the mana regen.

Could be wrong though, haven't tried it yet

But DoT doesn't synergize well with orchid, orchid requires fast damage
And viper deals damage best to targets that have already taken some hits due to nethertoxin.

It's just really not the best synergy, IMO anyway.

Viper with high attack speed can eat through mana very fast if you just autocast the poison attack. I can see orchid being a decent item if the fights are long and you can use the silence and you can survive the fight that last for so long. Not something I would consider core in any situation thou

Aghanims itself already increases mana pool by a fairly significant amount, not to mention that by the time you get Agha(which is usually not gotten as your first item) you will be of a level that you shouldn't worry that much about the mana cost.

Also yea,

Luna and Wisp, Wisp is going to be one hell of a bitch.

Luna is looking amazing, both in voice acting and looks, however the animation of Moon Beam could use some work imo.

Why would you auto-cast an ability that lasts for 2 seconds if you have high attack speed? x_x you should just cast it manually every 2 seconds really.
You'd waste so much mana by having it on auto-cast.

The attacks look much cooler with poison attack activated.

Maybe I'm just bad, but I tend to orb walk when ganking or harassing, but when big fights are happening and some many things are on screen, I auto-cast.

To me she sounds like an american with a very dodgy scottish accent.

I absolutely love the model but I can't say i like the voice (i have had quite experience with both scottish and irish accent people due to where i work now for some time, some of their accent is just not my cup of tea but i love some of them especially those younger irish generation).

There are actually alot of different scottish and irish accents depend on where the person from. In short, luna's sentence ending voice sounds like a scottish.
