you have your support heroes hide behind the carries somewhere
that is literally the counter to the combo lol


But they hit so early that most carries arent even combatready. Well, next time i will watch out when the enemy team picks a lifestealer and sb. But it is a really nice combo. If u ward there jungle they cant farm there solo or farm any lane solo, huge deal. The threath of the combo shuts down greedy farming all together.

But thx to all who replied.

How many bloodstone charges are we talking about?

Uh let's say 8 for starters.


Alchemist is the hero you want. In ult form level 3 he has base mana regen of 12. With a Bloodstone and 5 Scythes, Alchemist regenerates

[12 + (88.2 + 35 * 5) * 0.04] * [1 + 2 + 1.5*5] + 8 = 244.544 mana regen per second.

Then add things like

Vlad's aura +0.8
CM aura +2.5
Clarity +.33

= 248.174 mana regen per second

And then use stolen Tether with Rubick to tether to Alchemist. Rubick also has a Bloodstone and 5 Scythes

Rubick mana regen per second:

[0.01 + (104.6 + 35 * 5) * 0.04] * [1 + 2 + 1.5*5] + 8 = 125.537

Vlad's aura +0.8
CM aura +2.5
Clarity +.33

= 129.167

Multiply that by 1.5 because of Tether

Alchemist total mana regen under given circumstances: 244.544 + 129.167*1.5 = 438.2945 mana regenerated per second


necrolyte obtains rampage, opposing team buys back and necrolyte gets another rampage

600+ mana/second regen ezpznpcuzhe'sworthit

then you add a rubrick who first steals alch ult, then steals tether for 450 more mana/second

PS: use refreshers, not sheepsticks
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

0.01. is what most heroes have as starting mana regen I believe. That + pugna ward should net a -5.99 mana pr second.

What's the logic behind going radiance on broodmother? It seems like its completely the wrong item to go on brood to me. I keep seeing these broods on the other team with like 400 g/min radiance and like 5 kills or assists over the whole game.

Note that level 2 X->torrent->boat guarantees the torrent but THE BOAT CAN BE DODGED if they walk back towards you.

Level 3 X guarantees the boat (if you hit the torrent) but hitting the torrent becomes a skill thing as opposed to a guarantee.

It is pretty bad but the logic is that it helps you push lanes and farm, which is what broodmother does. Plus people like radiance on invis heroes (for obvious reasons). If enemies chase you you can just stand in the jungle and burn them down.

TL:DR: It isn't really good but it is extremely appealing. Additionally, it kinda does allow brood to contribute to fights if gotten early enough since you can spam your nuke and burn people down from invincible places.

Level 4 X->Ship is also just guaranteed the same way level 2 X->Torrent is.

No did math yesterday and Scythe gives more mana regeneration than Refresher.

it does on alch or rubick, but less mana regen on a rubrick with alch ult due to higher base and the ability to steal OD int steal

0.01 is their base regen. In reality heroes start with Intelligence, so it's base regen + Intelligence-based regen, which is the figure you're thinking of.

Just like most heroes start with "base" damage of around 20-30 but they have stats so they generally hit for around 40-60 which is usually referred to as their "base" damage.
