Items
Starting item:
: role support must buy this! :p
: buy it for upgrade to
Tranquil Boots, because
Ring of Regen and
Boots of Speed can buy at Side Lane Shop (Top or Bottom Lane)
: 1 set (4 tango) for survive on lane or give your allies one or two tango on lane especially carry
: buy one or two clarity after
Ring of Protection,
Tango and
Animal Courier, you need it because on level 1 you have no
Mana Drain
Early - Mid item:
: buy for needs your HP, because your mana have
Mana Drain for fullfill it.
: usefull item for any condition, for me, better buy
Force Staff than
Blink Dagger. Example condition: when enemy will attack your carry, you can pull back your carry so the carry is save. Sacrifice your hero when enemy still pursuit. Better support die than carry die.
: buy it for upgrade
Animal Courier.
Don't let any role especially carry buy this!!!
: i choose this because healing very usefull for supporting your allies after ganking or war, your team not need back to the fountain for restore HP and increase your strength for maximum HP.
: cyclone can disable enemy. It will make annoying for enemy. Very usefull item. beside increase intelligence stats and regen bonus, +40 movement speed is good for
Lion
: support must bring this item. Help your allies and back up them fast!
Late item:
: very usefull item for open ganking or avoid enemy comming
: double hex is very usefull for war or ganking. and increase maximum MP
: buy this for replace
Tranquil Boots, very usefull in any condition.
Situational item:
: i choose this item, because your item healing for your allies NOT for you. Regeneration HP and Mana from this item very usefull. AND when you die, you can fast respawn and back on your team, because your role very important for war, for late game, every second is very important.
: buy this for increase your armor and stats and very usefull if you use it when your team fighting in war.
: buy this when 3 of 5 your enemy is magical attack or spell caster
: Cripple, can slow movement speed one target. So one enemy can not escape from you. Use this after
Earth Spike and
Hex.
: Arctic Blast, slow movement speed area target and deal damage for enemy. Usefull item when your team fighting in war.
: short cooldown of
Finger of Death
: anti magic for while!
Rejected item:
Dagon : This item is too expensive and you already have
Finger of Death. Use gold for another item.
: Do not buy this item for escape from enemy!!! and you no need attack speed or increase base damage. Use
Force Staff or
Blink Dagger for escape.
Team Work
1. Ganking with carry/allies:
usually i will roaming to ganking if i have force staff. If you want to ganking, go with Force Staff then Hex enemy first, then direct use Finger of Death, then let carry free hit to enemy until die, if enemy not die, use Earth Spike and use Mana Drain to enemy. SO, enemy can not escape from our gank.
ATTENTION!!! DO NOT KILL SECURE (KS) WITH Finger of Death except enemy will escape or carry can not kill that enemy
2. War 5v5:
Let tanker/initiator open the war, don't too far with carry because you must caring carry. If war start,
Hex enemy's tanker or carry. Or "enemy" attack our carry. You must remember, Caring your carry! Let carry free hit. Use
Mana Drain when
Earth Spike or
Hex cooling down.
3. Defense base:
Spam
Earth Spike to enemy. Use
Hex rarely because you need it when war start from defense base.
4. After war:
Use healing item ex: Urn of Shadow for allies that have low HP especially carry. If you have low mana,
go to nearest creep jungle, and use Mana Drain to suck mana. You must always ready when our team go war again.
NOTE: You only can back to fountain, when die!
Summary
1. NEVER USE Finger of Death for Kill Secure (KS) !!! except we have no choice to fast kill
2. 3A: Always buy ward, Always ready town portal, Always look minimap!
3. Make the carry free hit until enemy die!
