Armlet isn't good, per se, but it is funny.
I'll give you that.
If you need a meme bulid on this hero, that's the item. Its sorta okay, just not the build.

see here's your problem
18 minute linkens e-blade is considered an excellent timing. 20 is a bit more mediocre but still fine/good.
if you take 20 mins to get half of that, then of course you are having issues.

well for one think armlet heart linkens is a lot more gold than linkens eblade
for another you couldn't achieve the same networth total without linkens as it's a farm accelerant
and lastly you'd be a much more useful hero with linkens eblade instead of armlet heart linkens.

I don't know where this notion that Morphling can't fight comes from. He gives decent damage for kills and depending on the draft he can take a lot of attention in a fight and be extremely hard to bring down. Obviously there are better heroes for fighting nonstop and that's not what Morph wants to do all the time but it doesn't mean the option is to be afk in the jungle. And also not sure why you can't pressure towers with Morph before your major items, unless he's somehow picked into a game where he is very easily brought down.

It wouldn't surprise me if armlet's quite good on morphling because armlet is insane atm on anyone. But getting heart etc. ROFL no point.

Linkens eblade is easy to get pre 25 minute in pubs, and you can fight early as long as you pick your fights carefully. People also underestimate the damage output of a max agi morph and waveform so you can get easy lane kills (even at 8k mmr beesa and illidan still crushing ppl in lane so it doesn't stop being possible at higher MMRs too).

normally u just get it after linkens eblade. i dont think it speeds up ur farm that much given that u have waveform, and 2k gold is a significant part of eblade. u pretty much always go manta anyway on morph

if ur having to manfight heroes and arent crushing fights cleanly. i normally get it after skadi (item progression goes linkens eblade manta skadi hotd). it just means i dont have to go back to base after a fight. the decision on when to upgrade to satanic depends on if u need a dmg item like mkb. i think bfly is kinda bad because it makes players buy mkb, which is magic minibash dmg that ignores all the armour u will have

The only way to play that hero is to go 1 str and go 4-0-4 into 4-4-4 before putting any points in your ult.
but ye 150cs at 20min or you're a scrub

Linkens is a good item situationally, but these people that get it every game are doing it wrong. Besides, the item takes 20 minutes minimum to farm up and then proceeds to not do anything but make it a little easier to farm. Armlet isn't a meme, it's a good item on a hero that struggles to do much early without it. Give me an alternative that's not linkens and I'll try it. But Linkens first is gross on any hero except weaver who has naturally high base damage and doesn't need health to fight.


Sylar's morphling is the best in the world. Just because his team failed doesn't mean he did anything wrong. Linkens is strong in most games since you can pressure the enemy really hard and force overreactions with little fear of death and good sustain.

No build is good if it has lost
