Also, when (if at all) should you stop putting items on the bear, and focus on items for the hero? | ||

I see people getting like non-upgraded boots on bear, then some minor item for the hero, then just a plain hyperstone on the bear...is there a method to this madness? I know attack speed is good for the bear, but that's about it, and it seems like not upgrading the hyperstone is a waste...but what do I know. Also, when (if at all) should you stop putting items on the bear, and focus on items for the hero? I would suggest starting with a Stout shield(on bear), few branches and regen on your hero. You eventually want to get Tranquil Boots on sylla, and then orb of venom +boots (regular then phase) on your bear. I'll usually get Orb and continue harassing, then Tranquils. Hyperstone and pure attack speed stacking on the bear are a thing of the past, really oldschool. Wouldn't recommend in the slightest, just go with the basic I listed above (even OrboV is a luxury to be honest) then standard is Radiance into Assault Cuirass. *Edit* - Yeah Mjollnir is a great alternative if you're behind. Also your main items on Sylla will only be Tranquil + Wand + Cloak and a TP Scroll for a long time. | ||

Cloak on main hero at some point is good because of how tanky your main hero is in bear form | ||

You get a lot of stats from armlet that your Meepos don't use - and most importantly, they can't use the active which is the best part of the item. Also, even Meepo Prime isn't a great armlet hero, at least how I see it. Armlet's active gives all of your meepo's more hp. | ||

Most TLers hang out there, and you can constantly see people asking for matchmaking partners, and even some inhouses(not sure if IH's still happen though). | ||

Male it clear that you're new in the chat so you don't get matched up with very high skill level players | ||

Evilfatsh1t that post literally has no place in this thread. Yes it does. You stated something and i begged to differ. This thread is about giving people correct information. I deemed your information to be incorrect so i corrected it. | ||

A Manta Style Luna vs Phantom Lancer is really amusing to watch lol. Luna is a decent counter to PL as long as there's a team to back her up. Sven just one-shots the illusions and then the PL with the 2nd attack. | ||

When you're behind tho, thunderhammer is really good to play catch up game. Don't transform it into mjollnir, just build the cuirass after.

Sven only kills pl before pl gets his third item (diffu/heart/bfly) after that you have to be a lot more farmed or to have a lot of consecutive crits. At equal farm pl kills luna really easily. You really have a timer when playing against pl. | ||

since im usually a supporter im not sure if my pick is useful or recommedable. so im thinking about picking up tinker, try to follow the latest guide here on TL, and get used to him. so far i basicly play only witch-doc, jakiro, dazzle rubick. more or less. do you think its a good choice to go more aggressive and pick tinker? if tinker is not a good pick from my playstyle, what would be another hero who would fit me? | ||

Could also try Nyx Assassin as he's just falling into the current meta game as a support. After getting 6 you can just either sit in lane and gank those heroes or just roam around the map and gank relentlessly with his combo. | ||
