however you can auto them in bladefury for 0 damage to cancel the salve/clarity (although u have to stop moving while attacking obviously) | ||

Assuming it's undefended And if I am int heroes, and i switch tread to int right after i throw the projectile, will the +8 damage include in that attack? Or i have to switch it before throwing projectile? | ||

Assuming it's undefended I mean this is a math equation right it's just whether +8 damage or +8 attack speed adds more dps for you, which depends on your current attack speed and damage. On my phone or I'd type it out Someone's posted a rule of thumb for this in the thread before iirc. | ||

1. Radiant mid is closer to 2 camps; while Dire mid has no same advantage. Does this make radiant mid more greedy/powerful? 2. Is it worth to stack big camps in radiant side even if you lose 1-2 cs in lane? Or is there a possiblity to not lose lane creeps. I mostly spam skills and stack, but even with this i lose at least one creep in next wave. | ||

You can definitely do it as dire if you say raze over the cliff at top rune to stack that camp while waiting for rune spawn or w/e, but yes it's less efficient. The tradeoff is that supports stack the dire jungle better usually as they can get a medium + hard stack without difficulty and there is another medium nearby as well. Also dire mid can stack their own ancients slightly better for heroes like TA. | ||

aka when the gold/xp you'll get from clearing the extra spawn is higher than what you lose from leaving mid for however long it takes to stack the camp. The way this equation works is the faster you can push out mid the more valuable stacking camps is. Note that when stacking the hard camp, its a very short distance to bottle crow which is kinda nice since you probably sacrifice a rune to stack that camp every other minute. note that radiant mid medium camp is a bitch to stack and caps out around a triple stack before the creeps literally can't be stacked more. | ||

Many of the heroes that abuse stacking/farming the nearby camps don't pressure that hard anyway, so this doesn't matter, but seeing as Lesh with an advantage can basically solo-kill anybody on a moment's notice if they fuck up, you have to judge how hard you're crushing the the other guy before you decide to ditch and give him time to get 2-3 lasthits while you're not there when you could have just not let him have anything if you stayed in lane. This actually also applies to getting runes--sometimes it's just better to continue bottle-crowing and keep up lane pressure than to give up 15s of free lane time to go get a rune. | ||

Asking this so that I can improve my pub quality hopefully. there's different scenarios of "behind" and "work well", so I guess I'll try ember: lose lane -> good ganks -> recovers. Once you have battlefury(s) you have quite good base defense capabilities so you can drag the game out AM: get behind in lane or ganked -> split push and rat -> recovers. Look for manavoid turn around! storm: get behind from leshrec mid -> clear jungle stacks -> don't die in fights/ganks and get bloodstone charges -> recovers. As long as they don't have harsh disable / silences late game you can always bounce back. naga: get behind cuz your early game is so weak -> farm aggressively and use song + TP to bail -> radiance rat + defensive songs for base defense -> recovers spectre: you think you are behind but you're actually ahead necrolyte: pray for refresher agh double ult and GG push All in all there are 3 things to look for in terms of recovery and "work well" when you are a core and is behind: 1) finding money. As a 1 position can you still reliably secure money through gank/farm when you don't have map control? 2) escape ganks. related to 1, when you have to farm in risky areas can you safely get away if they jump you? 3) base defense. If the enemy decides to end the game, can you make a reasonable high-ground defense? also most importantly: can you even beat them by extending the game? If your composition already lose to them late game, and you're behind, best make a drastic move soon. | ||

If we're talking cores who can recover well while not directly contributing to the problem, all the current mids are fine. Storm, SF, TA, lesh etc can all switch gears to bounce back in the midgame, but also have plenty of capacity to get ahead and stay ahead if the game doesn't suck. I'd suggest teamfight cores are even better. Puck, magnus, tide, DS etc can all do their jobs with a very cheap core which is easily reached even in hard games. Once they're there, they can be extremely impactful even at a large gold deficit while also helping to rein the other team in. If it has to be a hard carry, I guess you're looking at something elusive and self-sufficient like AM/morph, or someone who can capitalise on mistakes and get back that way (spec). In a lot of those cases your own hero is going to be the reason you're behind in the first place, though. | ||
