Dk scales well with items, why not get an item to ensure you scale and keep up? Not necessarily midas, something to focus on farming him up. I know you are saying, he just needs a bunch of mid tier items to fight! Well he never got them, He ended with 3 mid tier items, armlet, bkb, blink, not a lot of damage, pure initiation and then....nothing. Sure if your push idea is working that's fine, but maybe we should start rethinking DK and his role. Focus on scaling DK, cause he scales well, really damn well with items. Instead of just making him early push tower bot, focus on scaling him more.. DK can't farm well, he scales well with gold but he just can't farm and is a strong fighter with midgame items. He's on par with other 6 slotted carries but he will be 6 slotted way later. | ||

There was an OG game where this happened not too long ago, but I've never seen LD win a true lategame scenario aside from thathe's terrible at 50 minutes, like 80% of team comps just start killing the bear too fast at that stage | ||

Even in a dream scenario where you actually get 12 items, you're still not doing impressive damage on either sylla or his bear. Bear doesn't have stat growth or survivability and Sylla even slotted with the most expensive items doesn't do enough damage. Yeah, in theory a LD with tons of utility items like: BoT, Guardian Greaves, Scythe, Heart, Crimson Guard/Vlads, AC... With a super farmed bear like: radiance, abyssal, mkb, bkb, phase, daedalus or something like that. But it never really works out in practice. And that's more like a 90 minute game. When you're playing offensive and pushing, bear is good, when you're playing defensive, it's very underwhelming. | ||

I agree he's more D tier alongside things like Nature's Prophet or core Pugna. Can't wait for Arc Warden in captain's mode. That hero is terrifying late game. | ||

Huskar isn't that bad. a Bots + Armlet + Heart + Satanic + BKB Huskar can be very scary. (Halberd or AC last item) | ||
