This is just another example of the average pub player being way behind in his information. Sure, she could and can jungle starting at level 1, but that doesn't make it the best decision. After her 6.80 changes, she's strongest as a solo mid where she can easily dominate and level quickly. Certain sidelane combos would also be beneficial (I mean she's great anywhere, but for optimal effectiveness) like Wisp+LC. | ||

So please answer the question - what timings should I try to hit? In that case play support LC where you use heal and nuke to contribute and treat duel as a disable rather than a damage acquisition tool (although be careful that you don't feed them dmg obviously). Heal takes off stuns and stuff it's mega good. I don't know exact timings beyond "fucking slow" but you probably will be faster chain-pulling (plus autoattacks) than just jungling. Also you should never really be satisfied with your jungle, always aim for faster optimizations. | ||

Do you have branches in your inventory? if no, don't upgrade it if yes, upgrade it also i buy it on certain heroes that needed the last 'umph' like WK - Resurrection and Wraith Blast PL - doppel walk Jugg -omni and spin | ||

Is there any way this would be viable? IDK, seems silly. Maybe if the safelane duo is something like warlock or abba/luna so that you have a carry that can easily tower cs and a support who can keep him alive from dives/creep damage. Feels really gimmicky though and the offlaner could come and pull the creeps away from you | ||

People like to single out stuff like "oh his ult is so op because it prevents buyback and doesn't afraid of any hp" or "his passive is like infinite sustain and mana" or "his Q is like a free mek so mek is the best item on him." Sometimes the extra death timer on his ult probably helps his team fight with a numbers advantage. But if we didn't have dotabuff he'd probably be considered weak in pubs because he has no escape and is squishy. | ||

But if we didn't have dotabuff he'd probably be considered weak in pubs because he has no escape and is squishy. He's also the most death-bally hero in the pool. He naturally has ridiculously high sustain with heal and mek and his passive. when someone plays necro, everyone else on the team understands that they just gotta run at towers and force fights. At low levels where these stats get inflated, people tend to try to fight head on 5 on 5 instead of avoiding certain destruction / waiting for item timings. | ||
