Introduction
Hi and welcome to my guide for Weaver he's a pretty annoying hero who can attack twice in a moment with Geminate Attack and his Time Lapse make him harder to kill, well let's start the build now!
Pros and Cons
Pros
very hard to kill
fast as car
quick delay skills
Cons
pretty squishy
can't stand with hero who play critical and stun
have low damage
item dependant
Skill Build
Well I can't give you exactly skill build because this hero skill build depend on the enemy we faced, feel free to change the skill sequence depend on your playstyle or enemy
If we had hard time while farming because lot of harrass to us we should maxed
Shukuchi first so we could evade the damage for every 6 seconds
If we could harrass the enemy and farm with a bit pressure we can maximize
Geminate Attack first for extra damage every 3 seconds.
note: we should use Geminate Attack to harrass the enemy and don't go too far from your tower, even with shukuchi you might be not able to runaway from Fissure
Note: Take The Swarm at lvl 1 before lvl 6 and don't use it for harassing enemy because if the beetles killed it will gives enemy 30 golds, use your Shukuchi instead of The Swarm for harass and use your swarm for dive into enemy tower
Item explaination
Weaver only need item for increase his attack damage or attack speed (both better) that's why i don't even mention health regeneration item except Linken's Sphere for Spell Block
Boots
Why I choose PT than other boots?
like I said
Weaver only need attack damage and attack speed for killing and the best will be PT it gives you stats and attack speed
Monkey King Bar
This item will give you ministun while hitting the enemy,thats mean enemy can't run straight into base peacefully or use TP. if you notice
Weaver don't have any skill to stun or silence, basically if enemy TP-ing in front of you it will be very frustating because you can't stop him TP and start hoping your damage will kill him before his cast done.
Situasional Item
well, like i said before in
Pros and
Cons chapter
Weaver is very fragile to soaking damage, but we can prevent that thing if we use
Shukuchi properly and if
Shukuchi is not enough to save ourselve then we should buy linken'ssphere for spell block if they enemy had stunner like
Sven Earthshaker etc.
Orchid Malevolence will gives you mana regeneration,
disable!, attack damage +30!, attack speed +30 and amplifies damages 30% for 5 seconds! that mean you will be a killer in man to man fight (well since shuckuchi delay very quick i suggest you to hit and run the enemy, hit whenever Geminate Attack cooldown or while silenced and run untill shukuchi almost cooldown.)
Necronomicon
well this thing will give you true sight, mana burn, bonus DPS, a bit strength for extra surviving. Nothing to lose for this item! and you can use this item to "cleaning"
Sentry Ward
Black King Bar
nah, this item will gives you some strength for extra health and extra protection against caster heroes! for example
Lion Bane etc.
Magic Wand
at first item to buy why am I mention
Magic Stick? the answer is
Weaver has pretty low mana pool and health, this item will gives you instant health and mana whenever we need it! that's mean we could survive longer
Mjollnir
other best option for attack and attack speed also have great buff
Radiance
Well I don't mention this item into core or luxury item because this item very situational, this item gives you high damage and burn aura but it's pretty hard to get it. probably I buy this item in 25 minutes if I can't buy
Sacred Relic before that time I will pass this item and buy
Demon Edge for
Monkey King Bar
Manta Style
Nah I've found this item so useful for debuff silence from
Gust or
Global Silence that might kill you because you can't cast
Shukuchi nor
Time Lapse or maybe you can use it to disjoint
Wraith King stun or
Sven stun without using your precious
Linken's Sphere for other high dmg spell or
Doom :D
Game Play!
As lil cockroach, Weaver don't have really much HP to survive a ton of damage that caused by enemy carry or nuker be grateful if the enemy carry right clicker who don't buy bash item or had bashing skill it's mean you could cast your Time Lapse every time do you need it.
For every war or every time you had killed or killing anyone while laning or war you should ask
Do you help your team by killing their support or deal ton of damage?
Do they make you dying?
Do they targeting you or your teamate?
After you ask yourself that thing you should consider what will be perfect item for your safety or your damage that could help your team winning war
Tips and Trick
Here's some trick from me how to use Weaver
Shukuchi cooldown and invisible different time is only 2 seconds = almost all the time you will be invisible but watch enemy inventory if you found Dust of Appearance or Sentry Ward you should be back to your base or change the target, well if you pretty confident you can win then KILL HIM!!! *watch the map all the time because once you against 3 heroes or more you should run A.S.A.P
while Shukuchi have 2 seconds time different with invisible Geminate Attack only have 3 seconds for cooldown at maxed level, it will give you much much damage than other normal hero do
The simplest trick for Weaver combo
first you should go with Shukuchi and attack him from behind then attack normally until Shukuchi cooldown and repeat it until they die or use The Swarm before he escape by running away. The Swarm will give enemy 2 choice: 1. keep running while the beetle do DPS and tracked or 2. kill the beetle but you will kill him
note attack whenever shukuchi almost done with invisible state
Against
Meat Hook always ready
Shukuchi all the time while you against
Pudge and if you were hooked you can use
Time Lapse to undo his skill!
Against Stunner like
Tiny his
Avalanche and
Toss could kill you in second without letting you use
Time Lapse so don't go recklessly if the enemy had hard stunner.
Against Caster
hah? caster? what's that? you can kill them easily and evade most of their skills with
Shukuchi if you can use it properly
Special mention to
Laguna Blade Finger of Death dagon this skills will totally make you bad mood so evade 1 vs 1 with
Lina or
Lion or caster who use dagon for their extra damage
Friends, Food and Enemy
Friend
Crystal Maiden her
Arcane Aura and her frost bite will help you to kill the enemy easier.
Sven his
Storm Hammer and his
Warcry will give you extra armor and extra time to kill enemy!
Disruptor this will be your soulmate, if your combo going smoothly he can trap them in
Kinetic Field and then silence them with
Static Storm that mean you could kill them all while they disabled and caged!
Food
Your food will be heroes without running away skills and had slow movement like
Pudge or
Ancient Apparition
Foe
Chaos Knight beware with his stun, it can stun us for 4 seconds while all of his
Phantasm hit you easily and his
Chaos Strike will kill you without a doubt
Sven if he's going to be our enemy, he can kill us in a blink of eye with his damage from god strength and critical from
Daedalus
Bounty Hunter he will counter you until very bitter end! because his
Track will make you visible all the time! and silence you with
Orchid Malevolence he'll probably buy. Well if I were you, I will pick other hero than
Weaver
Doom the longest silent in dota 2 and do DPS while on effect, try to evade this thing or you'll die in second
The end
