BKB or SB?, is depends ur enemy's if there are some enemy with AOE stun or have tracking, better get BKB. so far I prefer BKB than SB, because SB can be Counter with some item,
dagon?, so far I dont have times for dagon, I focus on scepter and BKB that enough for kill ur target
yes U can get nightmare first, for rune war
and that annoying one is when ur teammates didnt known how nightmare works then ruining war ganking,
Overall, good guide though. +1
Bane is support hero. You need to level Enfeeble! 1 point on Enfeeble at lvl and 1 point at lvl 3. That's the way to shut down enemy carry's farm in the early game. You don't need sleep at lvl 1 or in the beginning unless your team gank with three-lane the enemy's offlane solo hero or you have a hero advantage at your lane and can gank enemy's, + Sleep is very high mana dependable skill and that's another reason this skill is useless in the beginning. Enfeeble is a must skill in the beginning for most games. You should lvl your skills Enfeeble-->Brain Sap-->Enfeeble-->Brain Sap-->Brain Sap/Enfeeble-->Fiend's Grip-->Brain Sap/Enfeeble-->Sleep/Brain Sap--->Brain Sap/Sleep/Stats... If you shut down enemy's carry farm in early game and place your ulti in the right hero in team fights or ganks... your team will most likely win. I don't recommend trying sleep in team fights because in that time enemy's carry or mid hero can easy approach and kill you + sleep can be interrupted by enemy's supports. You should keep distance and ulti. Lifestealer and Jugger are one of the best enemies you could have. You ulti them even when they're magic immune and it's great advantage for your team. Your carry should kill them in that time or clear the other enemy's heroes. And buy BKB! or you should position yourself very well and have a nice timing for your ulti.
Though I agree with your point that enfeeble should have early levels, it shouldn't be taken at level 1. First,
Not use
And no, you probably can't get BKB because
EDIT: make sure you tell your team who you're going to use
I just made a bane guide as well! check it out :)
I randomed bane for the first time, we were losing the laning phase and mid game by alot, but as I quickly read your guide, i learned how to use my skills more efficently and we turned the tides late game even though we had a ragequitter. Thank you so much for this great guide. +1.
(The match took 80 minutes long...)
Other than that good guild I am going to try to play bane soon or at least have someone on my team play him. +1
