I would rather build to a larger item or get a stat item or sorts (like yasha/bkb). It affects buildings and is a nice pushing item that's cheaper than an AC and gives greater -armor for pushing against towers. It also has much smaller parts than an AC and is better early game. Basically the earlier you get a deso the better, if you get it late it is a terrible item but if you can get it very early it's excellent on most heroes. edit : So basically heroes who can farm rapidly and would make use of the negative armor. (Heroes who have built in negative armor like TA or BH it's a plus on anyways). Furion is another hero it's useful for. | ||

TA is all about hitting hard, not hitting fast. Shift-queue after meld doesn't work if you blink into an area where your hero will autoattack. I mean try blinking with sand king into creeps with a shift-ult, same result. [ Read: Blink into creeps>Then channel ulti ] Your hero has to have no other priority commands issued to it, either by you or the game AI in order to shift-queue meld blink. And in this example, autoattacking a hostile unit is higher priority than your shift queue after blink. And deso was already covered. | ||

His inherent baseline right-click damage isn't that high--so it feels like Mjollnir or MKB would be more effective for him. | ||

Tower get -6 armor which help your treant's a lot | ||

If your team has two or three strong right clickers then somebody should be making deso imo | ||

The strength of this depends on how many people will be able to make use of it and if you'll be able to send them into the negatives. Knocking something into the negatives gives an incredible damage boost which isn't too hard early, and even if you aren't knocking them into the negatives it is still a significant damage increase. If your team has two or three strong right clickers then somebody should be making deso imo If it's a team thing, a medallion is better than deso. | ||
