Ola,

i'm lofy from germany and i'm 34 years old. (i like my school english)
I like Dota, exspecialy designing my own item builds. Cause of my slow hands and my refuse to use certain items. Despite knowing that they are good. I have to design my own Builds and come up with own solutions. This is what this blog is about. Its not an actuall build more a work in Progress. For builds - maybe somebody helps me gives me ideas i can work in.

Start with the idea i like SnY on DK SnY give good strength therefore damage and gives good AS and on top of that movement speed what i like almost more than everything else on my heroes. So i came up with this idea.

First Idea
Quoted:
Has somebody ever considered buying S&Y on DK 3 times?
Code:
3* 96 AS, 96 Damage, 912 HP, 7 Armor - pretty impressive stats.

That nobody does that was completly clear still lofy tries it.

I didn't build the 3rd SnY, but a Silver Edge to counter spectre. In the end of the game damage output was poor. End of Game Stats where Not very impressive. But i realised something i haven't considered before. I could build 3 belts of strength first. Becomming incredibly tanky. I most of the time i play DK offlane. (Safelane i give the real hard carry and some idiot is everytime tacking/feeding mid). So i get all my belts of strength from the Side shop, even when team buys no courier lofy is fine, anouther great plus.

Next game was totally **** team so nothing to learn by that.

Fine - Tuning

After Suggestions from Hamster (Heavens Halberd) + Cuttle (mjölnir). I did some math or excel, when i'm talking about math u can consider me oppening excel. Heavens Halberd with a 25% chance of evasion produces even more HP and more damage because of 20 Strenght, if u count a Silver Edge in u get more damage, less AS but 3 Aktiv Effects and 3 passiv effects and a crazy ms. Sounds nice.
Code:
62 As, 125 Damage, 988 HP

okay but not impressive, they haven't ignored me and i was something like the main battle tank eating all spells they had and somthing like controlling the game it was me in the middle in front the enemies with thier tower behind me half of my team. But in some extend i could controll the fight:

1st I eat every stun every abillity they had, except when i use bkb.
2nd if somebody tries not to fight me i can slow him to death with my ult.

So not the badest thing but 500 gpm was not what i wanted to have. Had difficutlies to farm my items and stay relevant this game.

that dp mid dominated everything but after i got my items i was relevant, still failfish plays from my side. And still 500gpm even sub that. I wanted to have more...

So i considered cuttle talking about mjölnir and mana pool. Realising that 2 bealts of strenght where enough. So i build a Gloves of Haste into maelstrom. To increase my farm speed and to safe breath fire to hit heroes not creeps. Even higher chance on Maim Proc's again a Silver Edge to fight spectre what was to some extend game bracking.

Conclusion



Skipping the 3rd Sange item. 600+gpm ah there are you :) i'll think i'll continue testing this build - choosing between HH and SE. Advantage 4 me is that i have a real good build up. Using my starting slots to the fullest.
Starting with a
Quelling Blade+Fairy Fire+Ring of Regen

Building 1 Belt of Strength Boots and 2 Belts of Strength than 2 Gloves of Haste And then maelstrom, SnY + HH/SE finisching with Daedalus + Satanic.
