    Well its kinda hard situation to begin with, guides are meant for those who are bad enough to need guides but also bad enough to not care about getting better, they rather fuck around than try to get better.
    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you to their level and then beat you with experience. http://www.dotabuff.com/players/115305822 https://yasp.co/players/115305822

    To Consider

    Is there a way to fit in a fighting build in the guide?

    Phase -> Manta -> Diffusal -> Blink
    Max Q (1W/1E) -> Two points in Healing Ward -> Max E?

    example: http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2523718598/builds

    It also means we have to change the skill build to this "two points in Healing Ward" instead of maxing it through. Right now, the Healing Ward is mainly used to help Jungle/Farm and not so much the utility of pushing per se.

    So:

    double-check




    Arc Warden

    We can either: 1. Change the Core - Safe Lane build to a Mid Guide or 2. Change the Support build to a clone Core - Middle




    Pitlord

    I need to update his two builds to be: 1. Support + 2. Offlane - Offlane




    Double-check - change to Middle?

    Medusas have been generally going phase, ring of aquila, yasha into either manta or linkens first. I generally prefer to go maelstrom if linkens is not useful, as it increases your farmrate as well. If i go maelstrom, then its yasha into skadi. Manta really isnt that great of an item on medusa anyway unless you can remove a significant debuff or dodge a stun.
    I carry hard!

    I think you should add manta to centaurs build in the situational tab as his illusions generated have return giving him huge split push potential both for creeps and towers. I have played this and it's amazing.
    I thought I made a mistake but I was mistaken.

    manta is definitely good and fun choice for centaur indeed, but its very optimistic to have enough money to buy manta as an offlane centaur if u go for the core items first (tranqs blink/force vanguard pipe aghs etc.).

    I would rather leave it out because the possible upside is rather small compared to downside when people rush the item because its there and they have no clue why its there.

    Definitely gonna vote no on manta centaur. Super situational and a waste of gold outside its use case.

    How do you not die in Dota?

    It seems like such a simple question with a million reasons - but it's by far the hardest thing I can't seem to accomplish regardless what level I play: 3K unranked or 5K ranked.

    I just die a lot. No matter how ahead or far behind I am and I can't exactly tell what it is that I am doing. Some are obvious mistakes: being out too far alone when all are missing, not backing after surviving a fight or simply a bad lane - but it still doesn't account for almost all my deaths which can reach near double-digits or more, regardless of my role.

    Since I am dying so much, I can't test any guides lately because they're always affected by my inability to follow-through rather than their potential (in)efficacy.

    lack of game sense. tracking threats and cooldowns in a fight. knowing what you can survive. positioning.
