Pugna with Ethereal Blade?

Since the changes to Ethereal Blade, seems like a pretty decent item to have on Pugna, with his insane INT growth.. Non-competitively of course. Thoughts on a build encompassing Eth Blade?

Why would you get that when decreptify serves the same purpose?Wasting 4.9k gold for a ****ty active which you already have?Not to mention the 40 AGI going to waste.The nuke would only deal 300-500 damage.Wasting 4.9k gold for 300-500 damage,when Pugna's real problems are disables in teamfights.

If I'm not mistaken, with both Decrepify and Ethereal Blade, you can disable the enemy carry for about 10 seconds? That should account for something.

Enemy carry would have a Black King Bar by the time you manage to get Ethereal Blade?He would tear you apart in less than 3 seconds?

Or you can get a sheepstick...infinitely more useful.

Instead of buying an Ethereal Blade, a good Pugna player should opt instead for a Scythe of Vyse, Shiva's Guard or Aghanim's Scepter, and even Dagon wouldn't be too bad at all.

For pub games, this would be an amusing and potentially viable build, since not many players build BKBs. It lets Pugna disable people for a looooong time, plus nuke pretty hard. I could see a carry Pugna in a pub game building an Aghanim's // Eth Blade and dishing some hefty damage.

The only problem is that BKBs null the build, so it's unreliable at best in higher level play.

Just go for the lvl5 dagon if you want overpriced nuking power
