I drafted, just fyi. Not sure where we went wrong, I think we itemized correctly and we tried to hit timing windows well. Some help would be appreciated.
Slark heart? Not sure its a good idea. I mean, sure it stacks with your passive, but it serves the same purpose as your passive and ends up only giving you raw hp. Slark 's ulti regen is all the regen he needs.
He could have done better if he got a sny or buttterfly. Even a mjo would have been better than a heart.

It's actually not that bad. As a Slark you mostly want Raw HP so you can do more Damage.
The more HP you have, the longer you can stay in fights
The longer you can stay in the middle of fights, the more you can Right-Click
The more you Right-Click, the more Passive stacks you get and the stronger you become
Personally, though, I would have said a Daedalus would make a better 6th Slot Item, since you can take their Squishy Team down much faster.
I strongly feel like vlads was needed this game, the aura could've change the game midway through. Storm should've snowballed a lot more on paper, and I don't understand why did he go for shivas instead of bloodstone. Bloodstone = best snowball item. I think you guys did have the drafting advantage, though. What I believed made you loose was teh freefarming Tiny. He outfarmed all of your carries and well, destroyed the late game like a proper tiny should do!

Oh please xyrus, you serious?
On the late game, you know that Slark gets his damage output and tankiness everytime he hits someone. Heart is bad in this way, even more due to the fact that it doesn't give him attackspeed to get those off, just raw hp and a passive that he already got, even more with Shadow Blade. The heart was a poor choice. And for the Daedalus, why? He needs attack speed, not crits? The obvious choice would be Butterfly since stats on slark is first of all really really good, and it gives him more attack speed and evasion from tiny's strong right clicks! Tiny isnt a mkb wearer anyways, let's agree. The movement speed conversion is also nice to escape and fits with his passive. There is no point getting something else... The other great item would've been Assault Cuirass. Satanic would've been ok, better than a heart in this case since your goal is to get right clicks and satanic heals your upon right clicks, but once again, he needs attack speed for it to be effective, and the slark didn't really have attack speed items, so it's would've been ok. Vlads wouldve probably made him more tanky with the lifesteal, but they didn't get it (sad).
Daedalus is always an option when you want to half the time it takes to Right-Click your target down. The more HP you have, the longer you can stay in a fight and Right-Click. Adding a little bit of Attack Speed isn't going to help much, the Movement Speed is nearly useless and the Evasion doesn't keep you alive against their insane Magic Burst. Heart does though.
How exactly?
Both lion and shadow shaman are focused on single targets, it's just useless to get heart because he got bkb shadow blade dark pact and shadow dance to get rid of those, good luck fighting Tiny with that. He had more than enough to deal with magic damage, but no way against tiny's gigantic right clicks. Heart is just out of question. Skadi gave him enough tankiness. Slark wants stats, not crits, yes it increases the damage output, so yes it is good, but it's waay less good on slark since his stats steal is how it makes him a decent carry late, and Daedalus doen't help him at all. The Butterfly and his "little bit of attack speed" (30 attack speed + 30 agility) converges into +1 strenght, agility and intelligence. Plus, it gives him stats which is the best for slark. I am not saying crit is bad, but on slark, there are way better items. Same goes for heart. You'll much likely never see daedlus being picked in competitive because it doesn't offer what slark needs for him to be tanky and a monster.
