True. If anything, I find ratting with TB even more boring.

Blink is a fun and surprisingly good item on Terrorblade after a Manta+Skadi/BKB Core.

The fact that you can use it 3 times for 0 mana in a 30 second fight is so good.

TB already has insane damage output, but people can still run after you pop Meta if your team doesn't initiate for you. Blink fixes that and gives you the possibility of backing off in low HP -> hide/juke -> Blink on a full HP (ranged) hero and get a free kill+full heal instead of futilely trying to get in range of Sunder while walking with 25% HP.

With the cooldown on Metamorphosis that kind of build is 100% worse than blink Doom in any non 1v1 situation.

It is boring , normally in dota you alwais have to position yourself well and have good reflexes to dodge the most spell u can. BKB is a very i click on the button and i right click on the hero i can burst down the fastest

If I'd go for a mobility item on Tb it'd be Force Staff. So people can't kite your Sunder. Hoping that blink won't be disabled in a teamfight seems iffy. You could also consider a sheep stick instead.

Optimally your team will set up your sunder for you, I mean it's not like you have to be hugging the enemies during the whole teamfight. A single disable will let you do the trick.

Movement speed and a BKB will do that as well.

The hate for drums is strange. Buying a null talisman is bad because you will have to sell it. Movement speed IS important for this hero (and every other hero in the game) - there's a reason that drum/SnY/Skadi is recommended. Furthermore, if you don't escape death/secure kills at least once/twice thanks to drum charges, you're probably doing something wrong.

If somebody else in your team is building drums, I'd say skip it. Otherwise it's an important item to have.

I have to try SB/Dagon sometime :D

Eblade is better dagon on TB. Not to mention that DPS wise it is one of the strongest DPS items on him.

just stack butterflies on tb after the manta/skadi core. if the enemy carries dont get mkb its game, if they do (of course they do) its still the best dps you can get all in all. illusion power gets to absurd levels. well 2 is enough propably : )

Eblade comes close (or even beats) bfly if enemy has mkb and you start approaching certain values of IAS and dmg. Do not forget illusions.

uh dont know. on your main hero eblade is never going to beat bfly dps wise, and for your illusions, true, it gives 5 agility more but all in all i doubt its going to beat bfly. still the option to go ethereal might make it worth it

edit: actually, double bfly eblade for a 6 slot build could be pretty fine, with skadi manta bots. splitpushing the base with those illusions solo

EthBlade is 10 extra Agility over Butterfly. Especially with a Manta build, you're leaving so many stats off the table for your illusions it doesn't make any sense to stack Butterfly.

Lategame I rather have Satanic/Daedalus/new BKB/Abyssal/Hex for last slot instead of another agility item. Illusions and splitpush TB is strong but there are times when you have to manfight.

Let's do some math.
Let's say we have lvl25 TB with manta skadi bots. Since we are only interested in raw damage output of TB+ his illusion squad here i will leave 35% evasion of bfly out of consideration. Our tb with his squad has 22+3.2*24+20+25+26 = agility (and 15 AS from manta that works with illusions) for a DPS of something like (29+169)(100+169+15)*2.86/(100*1.5) ~ 1075 DPS (with all illusions up) (or (109+169)(100+169+15)*2.76/(100*1.6) ~ 1361 with meta up).
Let's compare:
1) Bfly vs eblade.
2) Eblade + Bfly vs 2x Eblade vs 2x Bfly.
1)
Blfy will give total DPS of ((29+199+30)(100+199+45) + (29+199)*(100+199+15)*1.86)/150 ~ 1479 DPS in melee and
~1790 in ranged.
Eblade will do ..... ((29+209)*(100+209+15)*2.86/150 ~ 1470 DPS in melee and ~1777 in ranged.
So as you see they give really close DPS values. Considering that bflly does not give HP or MP and is more expensive imo it is only worth it if enemies did not have a reason to get mkb yet.
2)
2x Bfly: ((29+229+60)*(100+229+75)+(29+229)*(100+229+15)*1.86)/150 ~ 1957 melee and ~2283 ranged
2x Eblade ~ 1929 melee DPS and ~2247 ranged
Eblade + Bfly: ~1939 melee ; ~ 2262
Interesting results to say the least. So overall i favor my favorite build of eblade+bfly after skadi-manta. As for last item, it is completely situational either to deliver the dps or to multiply it (daedalus).

And I'd rather play Naga than TB but what does that have to do with Butterfly versus EthBlade?
