B) What the fuck are you doing with an eblade and a dagon, much less dagon 5? C) I mean you *can*. the "durable" tag is dumb anyway. But there's limited value to picking nyx at all when his mana burn isn't busted (Aka when they don't have high-int heroes). Since u want a better answer than B: You want a blink, a hex, maybe a force. You should be farming 20,000 gold on nyx anyway. | ||

Other similar purges like slark dark pact, tide kraken shell, LC's heal, abbadon shield all work as well. I'm like 80% sure bkb works too but you have to save it for AFTER the dust is used. Probably omni repel too. fu ran 2 fast | ||

It just seems so great for him in theory, way more reliable and saves lots of mana compared to initiating with the ulti. it costs 2150 gold. thats like half an orchid which is much more useful in ganks. | ||

Spending 2k on an item that gives zero stats to do something your hero can already do doesn't make sense. Ball lightning does damage when you zip in as well so it isn't like you're just wasting mana. | ||

I go mid Nyx and without Dagon I always get their hero to red health but never able to get the kill after all my spells go off and E-Blade is for after Dagon 5 when the game goes into the level 25 phase so spells will scale better against their team. Is Blink/Staff to get you close enough to get that kill with Mana Burn or Impale?? | ||

I can get it to work 90% on radiant after the tree is cut, but I reckon I fail at it 90% for dire and it's really frustrating for someone who mainly plays support. make sure the neutrals hit you when you are near your own creeps and you should be set. your creeps get very mad at neutrals when you get hit. practice a couple time on local server and you'll be set. | ||

He seems to be a heavy ganker, and interesting to play. I'd like to try him out. | ||

Pubs has no meta. And he's not in CM so can't be picked for competative games. Yes he's a decent mid. Think offlane is where he is best suited but can definitely be played mid. | ||

Generally post-rework when IceFrog isn't necessarily certain that they are safe to have in tournaments. Tho his last change to LC was a buff so one would assume he thinks she is safe :shrug: | ||
