Well thats pretty much basic starting items + basic core items and then he lists randomly every end game item to different categories. Nothing to see here.
|
It's just very impressive. It's the third most popular hero build and the only 2million sub. hero build that isn't mine.

Check Sniper (Middle + Lane)

I think phase boots are better for clockwerk. Clock actually hits pretty hard with phase and blademail.
Plus you dont need the tranquil boots armor since blademail gets it for you.
|
More armour is always nice. I've seen players get both so I will have to take a look at the competitive side of things.
However, I will be inactive for the month of October as I have been invited to attend the Epicenter event in Moscow and will be relocating to Europe.
please change title to 170 million

In the sniper (middle) guide, he should be starting with wraith band, 1 branch, 1 faerie fire, 2x shared tangos. Not sure what the policy is on items like wand but there should be either an early game or situational wand somewhere if he's mid, many/most mid heroes are spell-spammers.
Not sure about the skill build, I feel like getting 2 levels of shrapnel by 3 is very strong. Maybe WQQE?
Raindrop should probably be there too, similar reason as wand (spellcasters often mid, so you can survive lvl 6/7 attacks from heroes like puck, lina, qop etc.
Situational shadowblade should probably be situational silver's edge, I think if you're going to get the shadowblade it should be specifically for silver's edge active eventually now that hurricane pike is core.
SNY > manta on this hero, I would swap their positions in the build. Reasoning for this is that sniper excels as controlling heroes from afar. SNY gives more control through maim, and gives more movement speed, allowing him to keep good positioning more easily. Also, he doesn't rly have the mana to spam manta a lot and manta's not that great on him anyway (not high agil really, and ranged manta is pretty weak on most heroes too except a few like drow and luna).
Desolator should be somewhere in the guide, probably situational or extension. It's very strong for sieging towers. Only issue I have with it is that it gives away your position with big red pewpews XD
|
Is Luna still with two points in aura in the guide? Been looking at pro games and it is almost always just one level for easier last hitting then glaives for the faster farming. Nuke/ulti is correct as far as I know.
|
For Luna i dont know if u can put skill points into guide like that where u skip something. All and all i dont even think its that big of a deal because if u dont know how to farm, u dont really need the max glaives early. (again coming back to same discussion we have had 1000 times, to give guides in a way thats best for the noob to play in his current level or to give guide thats going to be better in the long run and is most effective in high level play)
For Sniper i agree some last hitting power in form of wraith band wouldnt hurt, even tho the sniper attack animation is sick, damage still kinda meh. Whether u want to start off with lvl1 shrapnel / headshot is match up dependent, vs some heroes u wanna take over the lane by spamming shrapnel and forcing them out of last hitting and some match ups u just need raw damage to last hit better. QWQEQRQ or WQQEQRQ both fine, again not a big deal imo.
Manta is kinda odd since it doesnt really do any damage but rather gives u more ways deal with shit thrown at u. Even purging minor slows with manta as sniper can be a difference between life and death. I dont think it deserves core status either but does SnY deserve? not so sure. Maybe we should have one true mobility item, either SB Blink or Force/Pike in Core?
|
Definitely pike core, usually I'd think dragon lance->yasha->pike->sny and then dmg item, something like that.
