If you put it in autoexec, it will be there every game. If you put it in console, it will disappear everytime you restart the game. | ||

If the guides are as old as I think they are, BFury BH was actually the way to play him back then. When people were replying in that thread, drum is defo in game and i am pretty sure track gold for team is in there.

Q_Q well fyi that european kotl (strongly) suggested to ban that storm as last pick (but the drafter ignored and banned NS instead) and that 13mins linken on that storm was the smartest decision making ever or just simply luck on his side if linken was his standard storm build. And ya storm lose mana while in flight, thats why that storm missing from a few of the team fights he got mana leak. | ||

I know, I was one of the ones who said so. But he didn't actually update the guide based on that. So for all intents and purposes, his guide is still a 6.67 guide.

I have tested multiple times now, and the only conclusion I can draw is that Storm does not lose mana in flight. | ||

(maybe not everything, some exception like necro ulti? if u can click on him i guess. source: kupo) | ||

Is there any good guides, suggestions on how to improve this kind of teamplay which involves all 5 of us. The best way to improve is to lose. That way you can see what you do wrong. Every time you die, ask why you died. If you lose mid, figure out why. It may just be because they had a stronger mid player. Maybe their offlaner was getting the runes. Maybe they just outdrafted you. A guide can tell you how to draft and how to lane, but there are so many different options, and if you have a player who is really strong with an unorthodox hero you shouldnt let a guide tell you what to do. Its good to have a strat in mind that involves heroes your team is strong with, and to run it until you understand it really well. | ||

(Duallane/trilane/mid/hardsolo) Like 6 months ago I swear I got damaged by a BS ulti while ulting as storm. Maybe it was a bug and they've fixed it by now, idk. As for clock I think it kinda depends on what you plan to be doing. If you're mid and you're really looking at heavy ganking and they don't have many ways out of cogs I'd say maxing q is fantastic, it's tons of damage and prevents alot of heroes from casting anything. You also always get at least 1 lvl of cogs really at anywhere between 1-4. You may want to scout at lvl 1 with rocket or if you are trying to fb cogs is nice. I don't like maxing cogs as in that case it's use would be to fuck over teamfights which is already leading out of clocks strengths, really long range ganks. Then of course, if you're offlane, they have lots of blinks or dual lane / whatnot maxing rocket is just just as good. Overall skilling clock is rather situational. But really, you can't go wrong with maxing rocket and and 1 in cogs. | ||

There is one captain who still occasionally picks morph but I can't for the life of me remember who it is. Since his heyday he has 6 less base damage so he now has 44 damage at level one with morph which is fairly significant given his previous 50 morph mana cost got increased by 50% which is big. And imho the biggest change was "Waveform no longer allows you to start attacking/casting before it is completed." so you can't wave eblade adaptive someone anymore or just wave rightclick and that's a lot of damage lost for morph right there. EDIT: Also a luna has 61 damage at level one with lunar blessing, sven has 55, PL has 56, AM has 51, lone druid has his bear. basically morph doesn't have a strong right click and combined with short range he gets outlasthit a lot and denied unless he puts points into agi and the go fucking kill him rule applies. EDIT: grammar | ||

He's not bad at all, there are just better/safer/more popular carry picks. Plus the pub mentality that a nerfed hero should never be touched again. | ||

I try to avoid these problems by buying robe first if I'm going for blade mail and / or bottle while I have spare slots in inventory. Viable or not? | ||

We usually have 2 or 3 arcane boots in team, but even so it's not really reliable in combat and with full mana pool you can get like 2 blinks + hoof stomps as Cent for example, which isn't all that great. I try to avoid these problems by buying robe first if I'm going for blade mail and / or bottle while I have spare slots in inventory. Viable or not? both of those solutions are viable, getting magic stick/wand and urn if you're fighting frequently will also help | ||

Speaking as mostly a pub player, it's more that he's a tough hero who walks a very fine line between killing everyone and feeding. Also I generally try to stay away from melee carries outside of captains mode cause theyre usually pretty bad in dual lane set ups, especially if your lane buddy is trying to get CS too. In pro games I think its just the fact that there are better carry picks since he was nerfed. | ||

I randomed him again last game, but pl kotl is too good, even with an es counterpick for him and meepo. Can pubs even beat that lane? I can not feed vs it with puck (can't dodge illuminate with lv1 shift I don't think) and I figure naix would be ok until his mana gets low. Pugna would be interesting in some dual lane or whatever. | ||

(A semi-carry?) I've always liked viper but he's felt very awkward role-wise for quite a while. The +24 range on his harass now is making me think about playing him mid more. Semicarry yep. Viper is a beast in lane, orbwalk the shit out of your enemy, great attack animation so last hitting is pretty easy. Get your manta up (or shadowblade if you prefer) and start raping face with it until someone else outcarries you. Aghs ult is useful for mid-lategame but his dps doesn't scale well enough to compete with really hard carries. | ||
