Dunno why, probably they don't know how one random can throw the game alone. But yes, it's removed at least for now.

Mirana #1 - pretty bad damage, you have to go midas to success, after it farm for 20 minutes, press R for helping team, but there are way better carries than PotM. Mirana #2 - pretty decent, especially against fotm QW Invoker/Puck/TA/Storm, you will have problems against SF and QoP though. Anyway, if you hit long arrow, starfall will just kill them that's how it works. PT(Phases)/drums/bottle - you're ready to go with this gentleman pack. After it - everything is situational. Mirana #3 - basically that's her position before addition of Windrunner to the game. You are pretty safe with 2 points in leap, have potential to gank someone and after getting ult, you're just becoming more annoying than Bounty Hunter with fast track. Route is same as #2. Mirana #4-5 - that's best way to play potm nowdays i feel. You just ward, roam, hit arrows and other stuff. I can promise that even if you miss one arrow on mid, enemies's midlaner will be scared to go even for rune. It's ridiculous. In general, main idea of potm is that she controls the map like noone else. You can setup ganks from nowhere, you have free smoke in your kit which won't be revealed which is legally good after Valve removed incredible manacosts and you can survive in situations in which noone can survive besides Storm or other guys with blinks/jumps. PotM-Bane is real fotm right now, you can go and abuse this stuff. Good luck. | ||

And the amount of damage blocked won't stack (with two stout shields, only one can occur). | ||

I pretty much only play Tinker but I'm looking to expand my hero skills. Any suggestions of other heroes that I can play that are similar in terms of role/apm/etc..? As tinker I'm basically TPing everywhere doing stuff and I get bored if I have to be in one place too long. But I'm also getting tired of Tinker every single game and would like to use someone else. Also pub games are not always very Tinker friendly with the heroes people tend to pick... | ||

Chen, although his role is wildly different. Gives you insight into how to play a hero that wants to end fast as opposed to stall the game. Furion, although he's far less mechanically demanding. Invoker. Fun, flexible, and with the right items still allows you to "show off" your mechanics. awww feederbolt why t_t | ||

I will look at the others. Thanks guys! | ||
