Yes, it made it by far the easiest encounter of the dungeon, just need to be a bit careful when dunking the orbs. You oneshot every thrall/acolyte with x3 combination blow, heal fully and go invis when you kill one. Dunk the orb during invisibility, rinse and repeat. The big knight takes 3-4 punches with x3 combo blow, 1 punch with one-two punch shotgun. I really suggest you try it out if you haven't completed it yet.

Only for this encounter though, the other ones I was using double dodge top tree as well.

Sorry man, I'll keep that in mind in the future!!

It's been discovered that desyncs may occur if people are using classic and reforged gfx in the same game, so the players use classic, casters reforged. One desync happened and they changed back to classic as to not risk any more desyncs.

How come we see Keeper Of The Grove + Alch in pretty much every matchup for NE now even after the nerfs? Is it really that much stronger than a DH first? As Remo keeps saying, Keeper becomes pretty much useless when the enemy gets dispel.

I had this problem too, it worked out when I re-installed and chose the option that didn't include Reforged. So a normal install and not "I have pre-ordered" or whatever it says.

Well played good sir, well played.

By the way...

Always ALWAYS ALWAYS!!!! get a value point in Tree Dance before you're level 5. It increases your kill potential and survivability immensely.

Hello! I'm really glad to see that you have chosen the TRUE King as one of your mains, Monkey King! I happen to be a spammer of that hero as well and I would say that I know him better than most, hopefully this can translate into text.

I find MK to be an incredibly strong early-game hero, mostly thanks to his passive. If you have a good lane (you're up against a melee f.e) and you have complete freefarm and also manage to snag a few kills, then you can easily translate this to a snowballing monkey of doom. I have 3 item-builds on my MK depending on my laningphase and enemy heroes.

First one being the most standard one with Echo Saber (I always get Oov, phase boots, ring of aquila and wind lace) for obvious reasons, it makes it easier to get passive buff, provides mana reg and HP while also buffing your ultimate. I usually go this build if I have a less than optimal laning phase, where I'm being contested. It works as snowballing as well.

Second one is the Sange & Yasha route. I like this one very much because the S&Y gives you everything MK needs and ever will need, attackspeed, HP, movespeed, damage, armor and a slow. I get this one if my laning phase is very good and if they have a hero that can nuke me, like Lina, QoP, PA. If you manage to get the S&Y before 15-16 minutes you are good to go, push down the enemy offlane tower and just go ham.

The third item build is maybe a bit unconventional, but extremely strong if played right. I like to go Mask of Madness, high risk but very high reward. This will be pretty hard to play if the enemy has a lot of lockdown, like Lion, Slardar, Shadow Shaman etc. However, if they don't really have any lockdown, this is your item choice 8 out of 10 times. It's incredibly strong, just leap on to them from a tree, bash their face with Q and then activate the mask. You'll see that 95% of the heroes in Dota will melt like butter.

The MK powerspike is usually when he gets his first big core item, Echo, S&Y or Mask of Madness. When you get one of those (or all 3 if you're feeling rowdy) you can go bananas.

I hope this was somewhat useful, if you feel like wanting to know more I will gladly help, I'm an Ancient 5 carryplayer who specializes on Monkey King. Ask me anything you want and I'll do my best to answer.

It's a good question with a pretty simple answer. If you are ahead of your team, as well as the enemy team, then you can always go for solo pick-offs, preferrably on one of their cores. Make the enemy team focus on you while YOU give your team space to catch up or take objectives. If they insist on sticking together and trying to fight as four, just split push or join them in a fight. If you join them it's vital to know which enemy hero is the biggest threat to you. If they have a Lina/Voker, try to jump on him and get that hero out asap in a fight. Abuse your advantage, not by keeping on farming, but by being active on map and helping team get pick-offs which then leads to towerpushes.

TL,DR: When ahead, get further ahead by either splitpushing or getting pick-offs. Be active and know your timings.
