EPTYou have to weigh getting your own skillset and ruining the combos your enemies try to build.
Even Enchant Totem can be useless if you don't get any skill that combines well. I had that on Huskar, and boy, is Huskar bad without Berserker Blood.

Was a cool combo but an extremely frustrating game. Allies very heavy. Couldn't win until Heart. | ||

arcane bolt with 2 sec cd + essence aura (unli mana) + blink (unkillable) + shadow dance for movespeed and a oh fuck button ... as long as you can see your enemies and you can click fast enough then you will be fine .. just spam arcane bolt everytime you see an enemy and use blink to chase and escape | ||

Seriously, pair it up with ion shell/ liquid fire/ acid spray/ any cost effective dot, and u re raping the lane. Not to mention Bristle ulti Also, abbadon's passive is so good on carries with good base-stats. Another thing i like to do is to make racecar heros, pick a fast hero and draft skills which increase MS (on otherwise slow heros), ez 522 | ||

That's merely one of several ways it existed on Wc3, it wasn't the first one and imo not the best one. | ||

Anyway, the current system is still addictive as fuck at least for me. I've only played a few regular games in days now. | ||

It's why manually casting the orb of certain heroes that normally have them can slightly boost their attack range. Huskar has 400 attack range but burning spears has 450 cast range. If burning spears is on auto cast then it's only 400 range, if it's manually cast it's 450 because it works as a spell with a range. It might be broken and it might need to be changed, but it's not a bug. | ||
