Anyone else find this? 0.52s of that is the air time when they're being knocked into the air by your initial pass-through. This overlaps with you actually completing the Burrowstrike animation, so while they are disabled for 2.17 seconds, that doesn't mean you get the full time to cast your next spell because you are completing the Burrowstrike animation for part of it. | ||

Anyone else find this? this is one of those subtle tricks for the hero. to burrow -> epi you want to make sure the enemy is facing away from you after your stun. that way, they have to turn around to face you in order to interrupt your channel! the small time it takes for them to turn is almost always enough to get epicenter completed. | ||

Seems like attack speed is good for him given a chunk of his damage comes from auto attacks, he really needs mana regen even into the late game, and he does a ton of spell damage so the ability seems good. It also never hurts to have an extra silence. But you almost never see it. | ||

I expected Tiny and Slardar to be able to interrupt the shiftclicked burrowstrike->epicenter, but neither did work. I only managed to interrupt it with Toss while Tiny already half-facing SK. Whatever happens after Burrowstrike is not a regular after cast animation. It didn't noticable react to hold position or stop command, no did it take longer when shiftqueueing commands after burrowstrike. And it doesn't take 0.5 seconds when shiftqueueing at all. It feels more like you don't have hero control for 0.1 - 0.3 seconds. Yango, any idea what this is? | ||

Both ways, they have the entire duration of bane's cast animation to BKB. Is this always true? I've found myself in many situations where I feel I would have much more control if I used shift-queueing of commands more (for example, ball lightning in as storm and immediately attacking, far easier to shift queue attack during the ball lightning than to click immediately when you arrive), but I always feel like it's slower, as if the hero takes an extra 0.5 seconds or something to accept the next command. Is this just a dumb feeling, or are there situations where heroes are slower when shift-queueing (because of backswing animations which would get cancelled by direct clicking and such). | ||

Especially if you're spending most of your time in the jungle past 7. 4-4-2-2 4-2-4-2 or something wild? Now that glaives bounce back I'd guess the first one if you're jungling? As I understand it normally earlygame you build your E because you don't want glaives bouncing everywhere and pushing the lane out or ruining last hits. However if you're being forced into the jungle then because the glaives will bounce back for level 3 glaives you're effectively getting an extra 65% of your damage output and level 4 give you an extra 130% on top of that again. In comparison your E only adds 8 damage per level per hit beyond the first level. So running some quick maths if your base damage was 100 (for the sake of argument) your damage output to a camp would be: 4-4-2-2 122 + (79.3 * 5) = 518.5 damage 4-2-4-2 138 + (89.7 * 2) = 317.4 damage | ||

For farming getting glaives next is definitely ideal, you don't need to static farm at that point usually It just so happens that the level 7-9 + 1st minor item timing tends to be a pretty important push timing for Luna in many cases. So while yes, there is one specific scenario where more ranks in aura are good, it happens that said scenario SHOULD be fairly common when you play that hero. | ||
