start with stout, pick up qb from sideshop when u need it since u sure don't need it to CS with, etc. 1 thing of tangos may be greedy depending on what ur lane is gonna look like. | ||

2 or 3 for hard camp depending on spawn at lv5 it takes like nothing for ez and 1 or 1.5 for hard post phase its even ezier im not saying u pick it up pre phase every game, but if ur lane is ez why not | ||

this applies to like any melee safelane carry. i dont really buy the "you dont need it if you know how to last hit" excuse | ||

If your lane is free, go ahead and buy a QB. | ||

Obviously troll contributes a ton with small items, but I wouldn't say that's a blanket rule. Stuff like spec/am/whatever don't have many other uses for 225g. | ||

I think you rarely want QB as the first 225 gold you spend after you get to lane, but after Boots/Basi it starts to get tricky. Especially if you have level 6+Phase, QB lets you push tower faster (since you kill creeps faster), so even if you aren't necessarily going straight to the jungle after, it has its uses once you no longer want to maintain creep equilibrium, especially with how fast Troll can break tower with ult + 1-2 supports. Buying it just to go jungle with Mask isn't the only reason you buy QB. | ||

Sure, that usually means both teams have shitty lanes, but this whole pentacore thing produces a lot of shitty lanes. | ||

Buying it just to go jungle with Mask isn't the only reason you buy QB. true, but I think that comfort of getting the mask a little sooner is part of my reason for holding onto the 225 gold. i'll play around with it some more, as I plan on spamming troll for a little while | ||

I just yesterday started counterpicking wyvern against him... and it works REALLY well. And I mean I did it with a reason.: Her Q can kite him temporarly very easy; her W is a nice burst and slow (additional kiting); E obviously negates his physical dmg on one target ( and troll has issues switching targets, imo hes good and focusing one after another) and her R disables him for ~3 sec and in the optimal case turns his ult against his own team! Seriously it feels like that hero is made against troll :D and my game sample size for now is 2!!! which is more than one, which means im right! So for 6.84 just add ww to cm  | ||

So for 6.84 just add ww to cm I did try WW too it works if your team coordinates well. Fundamentally, WW has some tools to deal with troll unlike many others. | ||
