Lina.


oh yes guys you're right. she's another one of those. leshrac better tho I think, because of push power with edict.


Lina has the haha fuck your bkb press R though. I think rebalancing linkins would help. I think it's too expensive for what you get

Lina has something that just breaks the Dota game the way it was supposed to be played for like 8 years though. Leshrac doesn't.

Has any team run techies without tusk?

EG. Several times. Aui is a free farming split pushing techies, not the ganking with tusk type. I think that's because ppd generally plays defensive support.

Can someone explain to an outsider what makes less so powerful this patch? I haven't watched much since the last ti, so I'm not very aware of the current meta and the strongest heros

Most recent patch introduced an item called Octarine Core that allows casters like Leshrac to scale better lategame.
Leshrac in particular can become nigh-immortal with Octarine thanks to his mass AoE damage.
On top of that, all the buffs to Lightning Storm over the past several patches have made Leshrac's laning phase and farming ability extremely strong.

i honestly think the bloodstone buffs are more consequential than the addition of octarine


i will spend that 4k gold on hex any other day than that octarino core

that said, western teams have some strong resistance to buy hex since 2011

i think octarine has a place but it's really not that great of a core item
imo it comes after bloodstone, bkb, and either hex or shivas


I actually think the standard old school dagger first lesh would be more world destroying than anything lol, bstone+dagger should be the first two cores

definitely if you're ending fast but blink on lesh if you know you're gonna be getting into lategame is a problem because he's got a lot of items that he'd like to buy and only 6 slots

Lina.

Lina's ok.

While lina mid is great. Lina support is underwhelming and lina safelane feels like not exploiting lina's ability to dominate the lane enough.


Lina support is fine with an offlaner going low on farm priority like tusk or clock or as a part of yolo burst one guy with BH cuz it worth it.

yeah tbh I don't like Lina piercing BKB, same with QoP...

not sure why those were implemented. just boost their dmg but keep it magic. if kept as pure dmg, then fine but remove the BKB piercing.
