DK Midas is an awful item.

DK just needs a lot of mid tier items, a Midas slows you way too much, since he needs to be pushing throughout all of the early-mid game.


And that is what the DK tried to do, failed and was unable to keep up and scale. 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.


DK can farm, the problem is that's not what people are focusing on with him, maybe we should reconsider how he is played. Like how we are now seeing support weaver, support slardar, or old support PA before it got nerfed. They were all played the same way one way, then people started to realize they could be played with a new different focus.

Mmm, Mirana buying an Agh's... I don't know if I like that. Really going to hurt their late game, which imo they should be going for.

there's no way you can actually be happy if your newbee right now.

Weaver is outfarming your cores 20 minutes in.
Alchemist is having a free game.
Your cores are being pressured.
Your only win condition is a team fight.

Aghs accelerates your farm so quickly that you should always get it.

smoothing out their power curve reduces the chance that nb randomly wins midgame fights and comes back during midgame

i dont think theyre gonna be outgunned in the lategame, unless, as i said, alch inexplicably chain feeds

Well an Alch can have an Agh's for you at like 35 minutes this game, a Mirana will have her Agh's completed at probably the 30 minute mark.

Nah, mirana has to go agha, alches takes a lot of farm, weaver a bit less and nyx is perma roaming so there is a bit of room to use this agha outside of teamfights. Besides it's still the best agha in the game, no reason to delay it this game.
