I don't think WK can be consistently run as a hard carry because there are so many heroes that can do his job better. I think, as a semi-carry, he is very strong. into Blademail into forces people to focus you, and they take a lot of damage as a result. Add or an and they'll have to take all that damage all over again. In the end, your team comes out ahead unless they've counterpicked you hard with mana-burners.

is not that good against illusion heroes.

Same problem as , it's non scaling damage. Illusions scale, while your item doesn't. Therefore, it's pretty bad in late game. While BF is good at any stage.

Example, if you have 300 attack damage, Bfury = 100 AOE pure damage each hit. Mjollnir = 25% chance to deal 160 magic damage = 40 magic damage in average, make that 30 damage with reductions.

The reason why Mjollnir is so good on WK is that he hits hard yet is slow. So attack speed is a godsend for him. That and AC makes him a right click beast. Kinda like Tiny.

Yeah forgot about BKB too. My bad. But yes; Blink Dagger is life, Blink Dagger is love.

So he's kinda like Abbadon. They want to ignore you, but you force them not to with items like , , Assault Curi***, and .

He is also very tanky, 1 or so defensive item (BKB, Skadi, etc.) will do.

He is slow, therefore is great on him.

This is what I'm getting so far.
