I usually have a support who buys it on the team. As I said, it's not bad on her, but I would still try to avoid getting it on her. Because it is a very slot-ineffective item and it's one of the good easy-to-get support items and the supports will be able to use it for you in teamfights.

I think you are really underestimating the value of Medallion, also the supports can't determine which target you rightclick with your ult so it is a lot more efficent to buy it youself.

I just tried to create some evidence using Medallion in my last game, for people who are really interested check the match ID and see how targets with Medallion on them melt compared to the experience you made without it.

Biggest problem with medallion is solely the slot inefficiency of the item. Everything else about it is good.

See I can also bragpost.

Also if your supports don't know who you are focusing you need to learn to communicate...

Medallion is one of the few really strong items that supports can actually farm in a reasonbly time.

It's not a bragpost, the screen was made by my friend who played with me cause he was so proud of beating Dendi. I just felt like sharing it cause the game demonstrates the power of Medallion really really well.

Also no matter how good the communication with your supports is, you might actually have to change the target every 7 seconds depending on the situation. Not even the best support will be able to perfectly use Medallion.
I kinda agree with firebolt that the slot is the only real downside.
Another thing that can have a lot of impact that some players will misjudge situations and expect lesser damage from exorcism, which can lead to a quick death if Krobelus has a Medallion.

Tried medalion on Krob, stuff was dying uber fast. Tell your support's to get it, save your inventory slot and everyone is happy.

I don't think that going for excessive speed in the mid game is such a good build it seems to me that this build is constructed to be effective on pub stomps as opposed to real games. It doesn't really give an explanation for the speed build and when to use it. If you are going for a speed build you are aiming to run down heroes after the team fight or have the change to run away. I think it's much better to rely upon your teammates to slow or stun enemies on the run. Krobulus is best when she is difficult to target down but with her ulti on difficult to ignore.

The movement speed is mainly for positioning and chasing down targets. Feel free to try out the build. As I have written in the guide, there are more ways to make you hard to kill than just stacking hp/armor. Even though Eul's gives 0 hp it still is really annoying for people to focus you down because of it. Either they sit and do nothing for 3seconds while you still do high dps and your teammates focus them down. Or they are forced to switch targets.

The "midgame item build" is supposed to be achieved around 18min. That's my timing for it. But you can get it earlier if you are better than me.

I.E: My Treads + Bottle + Magic Wand + Orchid timing for storm was 18min as well. But Fnatic.Era got it at 15min almost every single game.

As for the pubstomp part, I linked replays from both an inhouse and a scrim if you want to check them out. It's not made for pubstomping.

In my games getting it around/pre 18th minute required some kills, even with near perfect farm mid you won't get those items so fast without kills/assists. That or someone stacking jungle.

But I really like these items, had awesome games with DP so far by following this guide.

Yeah by 18min you should have had some kills and/or assists and/or towers. Unless the game is very passive where you can just farm lane and the 2 camps close to mid (easy and hard camp)

But you can still achieve it consistantly around 18min which is the point. Doesn't matter how you get the gold as long as you get it.

Also nice to see so many people enjoying the build and having success with it ^_^

Followed this guide for two games and went 14-4-7 and 15 / 4 / 17, best part was that (at least I think) I had great presence and influence in both games. Especially in the 2nd game I feel like I was the main reason we won because I kept us in it till the hard carries were strong enough to close the game out.
This is not to brag but to give props, thanks for the guide, made a huge improvement in my DP play.
Only negative is I dont think I hit your 18 min timing (although maybe pauses messed it up, + im not too hot at LH so I can work on that anyway)
Also agree with posters above, MS feels great and fun, and euls is just great

I don't necessarily agree with your stance and opinion of Bloodstone on her, but none the less, this is a great guide.
