had anyone actually played heaps of pheonix yet? ive done 8-10 bot games and in my first pub it felt like i was versing low lvl bots ... early game phoenix is pretty ****py but an amazing harasser, mid to late game he's nearly impossible to kill my last game i went 14-1-25 ... he has some of the best team fight abilities

spirits --> dive --> aim spirits on right clickers (dat 140 as slow) --> end up back at start point --> beam (move into fight with it, focus on tank) --> then supernova (if u survive then repeat from start).... team fight over...

his supernova though have u guys seen the stun range on that thing? its larger then ravage i swear.

im in love with phoenix

the one time i died we still won the fight because of the DoT...

tb though .... op as all hell ... shut him down early and hard and i mean HARD or he will one man team wipe haha

lions aoe finger ... beautiful fireworks haha

the only thing i am not in love with in this update .... is that people dont read the notes

brood mother ... it took him dying 6 times before he understood if they had vision on him he doesn't get free pathing. but apart from that..

im going to throw this out there ...

this is the best map change vovlo has ever done ... the fireworks at the start, the towers, the tiny changes to the tree's in lane, the new loading screen, the oh just beautiful ...

clap clap volvo

I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL.... WITH FLUFFY BUNNIES

The new map is beautiful indeed, but I find the firecrackers in the lanes a bit annoying.
The horse fireworks at the end of a game are the cherry on top.

The best changes are, in my opinion, the 0 mana blink dagger (because I always forget to add that when I initiate and consequently die) and the 50 gold branches (because ocd).

Ability draft is hilarious and fun:
Phantom Assassin+ Double Edge? Really Bad idea.
Lifestealer with Blink, Rocket Barrage, Open Wounds and Call Down? Had to build Arcanes and Linkens for mana regen (and protection from stuff), but the results were devastating

The earth spirit combo changes to:

Rock in front of you -> Boulder Smash into the enemy -> Geomagnetic Grip in mid air after it reaches the back of the enemy -> Rolling Boulder into the enemy.


A lot harder to pull off, been practicing this as an alternative initiating style instead of just pushing someone out of possition.

Sure you can still roll into them but you cant punch them back into your team. THAT was his most broken feature.

This, this and this. My only solution to this problem would be a Blink Dagger, or simply someone with a setup stun so that you can roll on the enemy and then kick them back. Or you can go Rod of Atos if you feel like getting a fancy item.

I'm in love with the new Lion, now that ulti with aghs: powerful AoE nuke with 20s cooldown, and i can melt the enemy team. He's easily becoming my new favourite support.
But what should be a build for him after the new patch? I tend to rush Aghanim Scepter after getting threads and urn, and up until now it worked, but i'm not sure is the best. I'm still kinda noob so any suggestion is welcomed.

There isn't much difference between Lion in 6.79 and 6.80, Aghanim's Scepter still isn't THAT good on him. Fun, but there are plenty of better Items, especially since you need some way to clump enemies up to make the tiny AoE hit a 2nd Target.
