Remember that wards are on a timer. If you put four up, you might not have enough when the first night time rolls around at 6 to ward the important night-time ward spots (think places like across mid river, rune locations, various jungle locations). There could be some exceptions against enemy jungle heroes etc., but I don't think it's common to use four at the start. | ||

The wards respawn before the 6 minute mark when you need to replace the rune wards. | ||

Also are wand + null talisman worth getting on Storm? My item build right now is mantle, tango + 3 branches to start (wand if im vs Bat, Zeus, SD, etc). Get bottle asap, then start working towards first major item, either bloodstone, orchid, or linken's depending on the game (more often than not I do bloodstone). Are talisman and wand worth getting here or do they just delay my core items too much? edit: also mana boots / power treads usually fit in there | ||

Once he gets Orchid up, he just shows up beside me, silences, and kills me before i can do anything or escape. Drow with Shadow blade is pretty brutal too. Any silence hurts, but the DPS of those 2 is usually high enough to outright kill me before I get my ulti back. Fast sheepstick perhaps? Also are wand + null talisman worth getting on Storm?

Ur natural counter is not clinckz, it's Silencer :D In fact Storm Spirit becomes vulnerable when he is silence, there is nothing to do when u already are silence. U have to prevent yourself. best advice ? KEEP MOVING :D | ||

Not sure what BKB would do..? As far as I know BKB doesn't dispell an item's silence thats already on me. I'd consider Shadow blade way before I considered BKB. Is it worth getting on storm tho? | ||

Linkens is good for the single target silences. Ghost scepter isn't ideal, but reasonable if you are really far behind. BKB is the best, and it does dispel silences. Edit: Shadowblade mediocre on Storm and is really counter-intuitive to Storm play. BKB allows you to roll and snipe key heroes. You might also want to consider improving your Storm micro, and training yourself to dodge AoE silences. It's tough, but doable when you have 2 good mana regen items. Euls is also a better alternative that's cheaper than Shadowblade and has stats you need. | ||
