Been playing more Troll.
Why don't more people get Quelling Blade? Seems worthwhile or because it causes us to 6-slot too early.

I like to go:
Starting: Stout, 2x Iron Branch, Salve, Tangoes
Early: RoA, Boots of Speed
Core: Phase, HotD, S&Y, BKB
Late-Game: Skadi, Satanic - but maybe MKB is more "core" so to speak

QB is great for speeding up your farm (especially in the jungle). The downside is that if you go some combination of bottle/drums/RoA/HotD/stout/stick/phase with TPs/aegis early on, you won't have enough slots to hold onto it.

I would also add blink dag as core.

It depends on how your game develops, if you get a long jungle farming phase with QB+HoD+Aquila it rapidly makes itself worth it (even before you'd necessarily cap out on item slots).

So far, I've been able to squeeze a Quelling Blade right after getting Helm of the Dominator.

the reason you wanna ideally wait until after your morbid mask (at the earliest) is bc you don't really need it until you hit the jungle. you get it to cut through the trees and make your farming route shorter and your farming speed quicker when you're hitting the creeps.

push the wave out, hit the jungle, come back for the next wave, rinse and repeat.

you could get it before then to last hit the wave, but there really isn't a necessity for that.

Everything is a thing as troll.

Troll is a fine diffusal carrier. Although tbh at the moment he's probably a fine dagon carrier.

On dire safelane in particular you want to start clearing the closest hardcamp asap between taking out lane creeps. If you feel you're strong enough to do it, stop waiting for creeps to hit 10% before you last hit. Instead shove the lane into enemy tower as fast as you can to give you maximum time to clear the camp. Clear it, get back to lane. Still a net win even if you miss 1-2 lane creeps, but done correctly you might miss zero. Repeat every minute. Efficiency.

A bit different on radiant, you'll likely miss more lane creeps. But top level players still judge whether leaving the lane to clear 1-3 camps and losing X amount of lane creeps is a win or loss compared to staying in lane .

And it's always nice to leave the lane to give the supports some much needed xp/gold.

yeah on dire safelane grab quelling, cut the tree to get back access to the hard camp, axes to clear it quickly and then you should make it back to the lane without missing any lane cs

radiant safelane, aggro the medium camp near the rune, move down and cut the tree at the back of the easy camp and then you can axe both camps for more efficiency

I'm well aware that this is what you can do. however, without items you will not be able to actually do that fast enough so picking up a QB before, say, phase boots, is not worthwhile..
