I kind of covered this in the "Efficiency Vs Flexibility" section - stripped down builds like this are great "when you get away with them", i.e. you don't take much harassment and can still do what you need to.
There are games where I've started with just an
Remember that things like
Blades of attack and tango
Quelling blade, stout shield and tango
Boots and a tango
(Any of the 3 stat items for treads) and a tango
For CM I buy the courier, wards and a ring of protection to rush tranquils
The only time iron branches are bought is when my hero will be making a headress or I am playing lone druid.
I realize that one iron branch can mean the difference of life and death, but I find it so hard for me to want to buy one even if it is only 50g. I don't think I've ever bought a Salve either.
But when it comes to games, I still do well, but I've had several players look at my starting items and say "ggwp look at Huskar's items. Boots and a tango."
I just want to know, is this kind of setup really frowned apon?
I'd really appreciate your work if you add a section about this huge problem in low mmr games
Great guide. Also you should add that "All items are situational. Core items are items with more situations for than against." -Xyrus
