I wouldn't get a runed axe on magebane or chronos...but on scout and TDL(poorman's shield on her first) it's the first core item I go for, Don't play too much scout as he's not appreciated in pubs so I save him for premades

In my opinion Runed Axe is core on TDL/Scout because of synergy with skills (incredible farming). It's situational on Chronos and I wouldn't take it on Magebane.
Minimal effort.

people rush runed axe on magebane for the same reason as scout/tdl... farming.
you can clear the entire jungle + ancient camp retardedly fast using blink, which = incredibly high gpm.

One last thing to ask, showed my friend some of the responses and he said that he wasn't arguing about that at all and only that you would always want boots first before going runed, his main contention was about chronos, actually I will link part of the convo:

[16:35:21] andy: when playing the DL my point was u want boots first
[16:35:24] andy: not that its a bad item
[16:35:46] andy: for chronos u dont want runed axe at all
[16:35:52] Tom: ever?
[16:35:59] andy: there are better items
[16:36:03] Tom: always?
[16:36:08] andy: yes
[16:36:19] Tom: you are plain wrong on this as well imo

Thoughts?

Although getting ruined axe might be a good choice, I think it is rarely correct to get it before boots.

I go Battlefury before boots on both TDL and Scout because they have escape mechanics and TDL has a slow so she shouldn't need to be faster than her opponent assuming you have a competent babysitter. Getting a Battlefury 500g sooner literally gives you that 500g back in ~15 seconds where as 10 more CK to finish the battlefury takes a bit longer farming the lane.

^Agreed. Runed Axe is tooooooo good on TDL/Scout. Decent on the others you mentioned but def def core on these 2.
Do it beautifully

Runed Axe is so good on TDL there's no point in not making it anyway, the splash allows you to start one shotting creepwaves with dark blades + charging strike very early, and the manaregen allows you to do it again and again wherever there is farm in between jungling.

On Chronos I'd rather just stack attack speed, the manaregen doesn't help because you're not spamming skills anyway and it won't fix your pathetic manapool.
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.

people like spending a shit ton of money on a farming item when just getting dmg and speed and a bit other stats would make you a carry faster.

You guys should play on iCCup; there's too few Euro/American players! Garena is crap for public games.

My thoughts regarding Runed Axe:

Swiftblade: Core, but get boots (&possibly boot upgrade) after lifetube. RA makes his ult an AOE attack and the extra farm helps him out a lot.

Chronos: I only get it on Chronos if my team is having troubles killing people inside my ult... Which I usually decide after Elder Parasite (and boots). It's not a bad item on him, though.

Bloodhunter: Mock is better, but if you're having difficulty saving for Mock, RA is a serviceable replacement.

The Dark Lady: Core, get it before boots if you can. No question.

Magebane: Situational. I don't like RA on him but if you're in a teamfight where you're wacking on a Pyromancer with others nearby, then you ult, RA can be nice. My first Quadkill came this way. I'd probably get boots before finishing RA.

Scout: Core, get it before boots if you can. I'd go so far to say that Scout is almost useless in a teamfight without RA.

Madman: I don't have enough experience with Madman to come to a firm conclusion, but RA seems to have what he needs.

Armadon: Situational. RA is good on him, but you may want to prioritize tank items, ring of teacher and Mock instead.

Hammerstorm: I like RA on Hammerstorm. I wouldn't finish it before boots.... or bottle.

Keeper of the Forest: If you're going the damage route... Mock is better. But RA can work too.

Electrician: Only if you're Testie.

Jeraziah: It's funny cuz it can work. Your teammates will rage at you, but it can work.

Pandamonium: I don't like RA on him, but it's not a bad item for him. He can rush it and do fine.

All the other heroes shouldn't even consider RA, imo.

Does mock stack with Soul reapers 2nd ability? And is it entirely team/enemy dependent if I should go healing or damage? Nome/Astrolabe, or both, Astrolabe first? I was getting too much farm and we were just finishing up the game, so I also got SotM, but I don't think that it is the right choice. Do high level games ever progress to that point, or should I go with a different item build? I have a feeling all of this depends on the other heroes chosen, but mainly for a healer build - what items, and is a carry build viable?
I can already see the ending

Tank SR is easily the best public build.
