I like the threat it adds to you; put into context assuming no boots advantage and no extra speed items even a single hit for 5% slow off one point in Geostrike means that the ONLY heroes that can outrun you are: Luna - 313.5 MS after 5% slow Chaos Knight and Lone Druid - 308.75 MS Apart from that everyone ends up at lower than Meepo's 305 movement speed (although its close for Naga, Legion Commander and Pugna; with 304 MS). | ||

I've seen notail play the new meepo a couple times and he always goes for an early earthbind, he also gets orb of venom quite often. Really, not many heroes can handle the double earthbind slow + oov as soon as level 3. Obviously it depends on the hero you're up against, you wouldn't do this against a sniper or some other high range hero, because you're never getting into melee range with them. | ||

Also, initiating with ice shards is much better if the shards trap them in your creep wave. Since its a very important strategy for getting early kills on the hero, and is pretty short, it could be included! | ||

Also Tusk has mana problems - bottle or soulring are both decent options. It depends how you're playing him. In ganks, Sigil is mediocre as the attack speed slow is not really that influential. It starts to become strong in teamfights, but as a solo laner, you should start having it leveled by the time real fighting breaks out and your priority early should be to maximize your burst damage. As a 4th position support/ganker (and yes, Tusk can be played this way, similar to Nyx), you're a bit tighter on levels. Sigil ranks earlier start to become more important, possibly even maxing it over Snowball because of this. | ||

Its simply too good. Although urn before it seems very popular and mek can certainly be bought first if your team needs it, Aghs rush isn't "situational" so much as it is "THE BUILD" regardless of how hard it is to farm. You can situationally do other stuff if you have to. | ||

It has a huge impact on the game when picked up, which is why it should be built as soon as possible in most cases. Sure, there are situations where you don't want to straight up rush it, but the vast majority of cases, I think you should go for it. rushing blink first on shaker or sandking is often not good. Getting a fast blink should should be the result of getting good ganks/teamfights/tower pushes not them not buying anything for 15 minutes. If your team falls behind saving up 25 minutes to finally get aghs is probably not a good way to play AA in pubs. Also his ult is much less critical than it is in a competitve environment, you can't really rely on AA ult as additional damage in a gank in pubs, there is a chance they miss it or they don't realize they are supposed to ult there or they just ulted a creep wave on the other side of the map to push or something. | ||

I'll keep Meepo as is, I don't feel people will be aggressive as Meepo so early in the game to justify rearranging his build. This is mainly from my standpoint; where I prefer to just get ahead with farm and splitting my Meepos up. Meepo 2. I'll keep AA as is with the rearranged build: Ancient Apparition (Middle) Ancient Apparition (Lane) Unless there is an inherent flaw, I'll keep it as is with the core being in order an extension being choice(s) I'll be looking at Tusk lane and a mid guide now. I removed Shadow Blade from the older builds but maybe it should return... Tusk | ||
