hatchet shield is faster
the rob method works okay but i think it's faster if you ferry a shield + hppot right away anyway

edit: the issue with the rob is that you can't take on some hard camps, even centaurs and satyrs give you issues
also with no hatchet you can't clear ez camp before the 1 minute mark, so you have to stack it manually which is more annoying

Clarities are terrible, because you have to wait 30 seconds without getting damaged, and your wolves will not survive that long at level 1. It probably takes less time to suicide than to wait 30 seconds (I'm mostly a lone voice advocating suiciding, so take my advice as you will). You can pull, but running back and forth without hitting is slower than just attacking/tanking.

Quelling blade is important, because your damage output is very significant compared to level 1 wolves. You could try skipping the stout shield when you start, but I'm not sure if you'd last long enough to tank for 3 summons of wolves.

Avoid ursas until you have level 5 and medallion. Jungling is moderately dependent on your spawns, since the levels are not balanced. Trolls warlords are by far the best, then medium satyr camp, then golems, then big satyr camp, then small camps. Wildkin are the worst exp wise, then ogres, then centaurs.

More on suiciding: paradoxically, at level 2 you want to minimize experience. So if you reached 2 and find a centaur camp, kill the crappy small centaur first, then die will chipping away at the big centaur. Enemies ganking you is ironically good for you (relatively speaking), so long as you know when they're trying to gank you. If you suicide in time before they gank you, they just waste time and you get a free trip to base.

but you're not level 1 when you use clarities
you're level 3 and they can tank the ez camp at that level
i'm pretty certain regen ferrying is faster than suiciding

no, but when you ferry regen you constantly kill creeps, so it's pretty much impossible for suiciding to be faster

Axe is stronger when good at stacking imho. But Eni is the best jungler in terms of great jungling + great teamfighting abilities once he hits 6.
There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity.

I have some questions considering inventory management with supportive heroes. So I have boots, wand, TP, wards, often dust , often a bracer. I'm full. What items should I get as I don't have a really good experience from sharing dust/obs with others players who don't buy it themselves.

Also tp boots wand & bottle on ganker from mid often leads to fast full inventory. So same problem here.

A last question, I spend tons of gold on TP scrolls, often buying two at the same time after death, one to go lane (pay for itself, I consider this tp as free XP) & an other one if I need too. However sometimes it seems I should not have put TP on cooldown even if it seemed safe from minimap. Any tips to choose to TP or walk? But tbh it happens more often when map is not well warded so the problem may not lie there.

There are a lot more tips I'm skipping, but turning the bracer into Drums of Endurance is nice, even if your team already has one (more charges, etc).

Full inventory isn't a bad thing, just start selling items (wand/bottle) once you fill the other slots. Also, you can use the chicken as extra slots for warding (by intelligently swapping items with it etc). Remember, having wards in your inventory isn't helping much, so no need. You can keep them on the courier and bring them to yourself when you wish to use them, if nothing else. Sentries are a bit different, but usually I try to have only 1 item slot taken by wards/detection at a time (obviously this is after 20 mins, once I'm actually looking to free up my slots as a support).

TP'ing to lane is generally considered bad in higher-tier play but in pubs you can usually get away with it. Just be aware of the other team's plan. If they are looking to push or gank other lanes, JUST WALK (especially if you have tranquils). If they are farming up and your team isn't looking to do much either, TP to a free lane is indeed free XP. Obviously its fine to TP to a lane if you guys are looking to achieve something in that lane. TPing to place wards is pretty questionable as well, I'd rather run in, ward, then TP out asap XD.


I'm starting to have games in very high now thanks to you. The problem is I still sux at last hitting, I'm mechanically bad, probably due to picking random all the time. But now I can really help my team way more. However the skill level is not that different from normal games, it's more about teamplay understanding rather than heroe understanding. People group way more, a bit more wards, more pulls, a bit less flame, more TPs, less carries, more chat. It really does not take that much to climb to higher level of play when you start from normal.

Hey, so does anyone know the way to see your mmr? I read somewhere that you do it over the watch function in dota, but i can't remember the process entirely. I tried searching, but only found this thread http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=289478

Go to 'watch recent games', filter, type your name in, filter games by very high/high/normal and see where most of your games are.

As far as I understood, that is NOT your mmr, but it's the "general skill level of the game".

How do you jungle lycanthrope after the nerf? I have seen lots of different builds and paths, which one is the most effective?

Of course you need to micro wolves etc, but i would like to know the item build and the jungle route.

It's the average MMR level of all the members of the game. So if you have lots of games in high but only 1 or 2 in very high, then you're in high.

Ursa is pretty in sick in Jungle bro
his passive + attack speek make him really good for farm hard creeps ... and no mana dependant
its too really easy to defend urself if someone want to gank you

btw i like play jungle until i get phase / vlad (level 8/9 with one or two kills) then roshan then .... GANKGANKGANK

Somebody else asked this question and was answered here:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=255901&currentpage=291#5818

On Lycan you have to tank a lot more than previously and you can't summon wolves every time they're off cd. Jungling patterns are mostly the same as before, avoid Ursa Camps, Wildkins and Centaurs at early levels. At level 5 you can begin to do some of the harder camps.
