Quelling Blade increases ur damage vs enemy creeps by 40% thus making last hitting easier when u have more damage. Imagine a situation where there is creep under ur tower and tower is hitting it. At the point when the creep is about to die and tower needs one more hit to kill it u are suppose to last hit right? Well lets say u have 70 damage and creep has 80 health and tower keeps hitting the creep for 110. Without quelling blade it is impossible to get the last hit in this example because u cant kill it from 80hp and tower will kill it if u dont. But with quelling blade ur damage vs. creeps increases to 1,40 x 70 = 98 which is more than 80 to make u able to last hit.

Other than making impossible last hits possible, u sometimes fuck up and miss last hit and these situations having more damage makes it easier to last hit. less fuck ups, more gold.

it also lets you cut trees to make shortcuts, just an item to increase your farming efficiency. there used to be this idea that only noobs who couldn't last hit bought quelling blade, which is false.

Everything on that list is mutually exclusive and will not stack with anything else on the list.
The only exceptions are:
  • Eye of Skadi, which will stack with lifesteal from Morbid Mask/MoM/HotD/Satanic
  • Malestrom and Mjollnir, which will stack when they do not proc the Chain Lightning passive

For Drow, frost arrow overrides lifesteal, whenever u shoot the frost arrow, u wont lifesteal and when u dont, u will lifesteal.

For AM, only source of lifesteal he can use are Vlads and Wraith King Vampiric Aura. Im not entirely sure if the enemy applies break on u (disabling passives) and u drop ur satanic before break is applied and pick it up after, will u be able to lifesteal or not until break wears off but thats really not practical in a real game situation anyways but a fun fact to investigate for sure.

dont have to be a pro to have 70% winrates
there are a lot of no named players that are skilled enough to play at pro level, even if they cant actually make that transition.
70% winrate is even easier to hold if they only play in a stack

Dispersion returns damage before any damage reduction including vanguard

unless losing 150hp is problem then yes, pretty much always worth it.

man tinker is a lot harder now with soul ring haha :D

btw i just realised that the addition of Alt to Selfcast means that you no longer need to have your tp scroll on a Normalcast hotkey - you can just tap alt-\ and will tp back to base

inb4 i fuck this up 100x in a row now

Remember to drop items to stash if you trade for bottle or one game somebody is going to fountain dive your items and lose you the game.

i went 0-16, something, then finally won a game where the players were even worse than me somehow (actually i think everyone fell asleep at the end, i certainly did)
not sure if this hero is as fun as voker (was trying to convince the voker in my game to swap heroes around the 60 min mark) but i'll keep at it for a while, got some smurf replays to watch where he is like 75% up to 4k and purge's videos aren't bad actually
this hero is cool coz there is sooooo much dynamic decision making , its really quite impressive
