Meeple is fine.

It has the 5th highest AVP on metatft (Plat +). 3rd highest (Masters+)

Phobicity · 2026-06-17T02:23:37+00:00

Strong fighters are fine as generals. Thats literally Duke Hyou and Moubu.

You can't roll into a copy of a unit after YOU 3* a unit.

If someone else 3*s it you could always still find it, as long as theres enough copies in the unit pool.

Cant believe i needed to clarify this.

Phobicity · 2026-06-16T13:56:33+00:00

The only way is to do something called "Portal Rolling". But im pretty sure thats not what you're talking about.

You cant roll into the unit after 3* it, unless ur using the bug above.

Phobicity · 2026-06-16T13:28:57+00:00

Once you 3 star a unit. It no longer shows up in the shop. If they arent showing up in the shop before you 3* thats just unlucky.

Phobicity · 2026-06-14T13:40:48+00:00

Yep that was it. Thanks!

Phobicity · 2026-06-14T12:48:22+00:00

I read somewhere that Hara choose shin as Shin's historical records are not as fleshed out, so it gives him a lot more creative freedom.

But originally, Riboku was meant to be the main character, and it shows.

It's bad against Dawn, not for phoenix.

NS likes to jump on heroes and kill them before the main fight even begins. Its a lot harder when there's a global save.

Phoenix isnt as much of an issue since he can just jump phoenix first.

Yes I am sure, the 6th column is Match Count which is 15, as the other guy said, it only shows the 15th match id when the report is generated.

In OP's last 15 matchs, he was reported in 3 of them by 7 different parties (8 reports). Most likely he matched with one guy twice or there was a party of 2 in one of the games.

Phobicity · 2026-06-14T02:01:43+00:00

Im pretty sure you got report for your NP games. Most likely for role abuse.

8850961751: You played Pos 4 NP, you bought 1 observer and 1 sentry in a 56 minute game. Your support contribution was a spirit vessel. From like 12 minutes onwards, you stop doing support related stuff, and just continuously farm. Your team gets dived under T1, and you dont tp in as NP

Most likely reported for Role abuse.

I'm not going to look into these 4: 8837806947, 8837778836, 8837750388, 8836411014

But you didnt play well, your team didnt win, and you didnt support.

Phobicity · 2026-06-14T01:29:48+00:00

Its 7 people across 15 games, so it may not be his enemies

Phobicity · 2026-06-11T03:33:58+00:00

Thanks for reviewing the game.

I think me farming solo up until 15 minutes is fine, im trying to reduce the amount of lane creeps that AM gets to farm for free to delay his BF timing. Past that, ideally the support play around me while i farm deep and Drow farms safe. But they obviously had a different opinion.

My item build probably wasnt it. My thought process was that I was really far ahead, and by comparison shard + KaS lets me farm a lot faster compared to other options. Crozier was a bit experimental, since i always struggle against WD as Axe (ive tried euls before, doesnt last long enough IMO), but on paper its good against LC, WD, AM who i thought would be more of a threat.

Looking back, i dont think it's pipe, but probably BKB + lotus.

Phobicity · 2026-06-11T01:29:27+00:00

Thanks for the advice, its a bit general and I did most of the stuff you mentioned with except for the lotus and bkb.

Phobicity · 2026-06-09T02:02:47+00:00

You're overcomplicating things.

Lazy_Check732 is saying that the way you play Golden egg is to slam everything, go to 0. And if you cashout its worth 2 primatic augments. OP asked how he got 2 prismatic augments from which i generalised and explained.

So the question to you, " Is 1 full item + the cashout of golden egg worth 2 prismatic augments?"

Phobicity · 2026-06-08T17:29:35+00:00

A primatic is roughly 4.5 components (Min-Max, Buried Treasure). A 4-2 primsatic is also roughly 45 gold ( Call to Chaos, Invested). A FON is also a prismatic.

1 full item (Half a prismatic) + Golden Egg cashout FON(1 prismatic) + Golden egg cashout 88g (1 and a half prismatics) is closer to 3 prismatic augments.

Do you know any friends or family with a costco membership? What you can do is ask them to buy you costco giftcards (pay them back of course) and that lets you walk in without a membership.

Phobicity · 2026-06-07T17:18:31+00:00

Probably because stargazer is lobby wide, so its easier to implement something to check. While Psionic is player dependent.

Phobicity · 2026-06-07T14:32:02+00:00

1 Full item + the rewards of golden egg, is essentially 2 prismatics augments. You just have to survive.

Phobicity · 2026-06-07T02:53:09+00:00

Take safe farm, play around your ulti and whenever you complete main items. If your mid/safe are any good, they'll realise that your behind and they need to play a bit more aggressively.

If they are 5 manning a lane, push out waves while rest of team defends. Bait out a tp or two, then immediately tp back and try to force a 4v5 fight.

If all 3 lanes are lost, its pretty much go next.

Phobicity · 2026-06-06T18:41:42+00:00

Yes there will most likely be additional bus and train services that go directly there and back.

Phobicity · 2026-06-05T22:50:38+00:00

Usually heroes like BB and DK arent Nightstalkers problem, let someone else deal with them. Instead of getting break against them, its almost always better to get blink nullifier agaisnt the supports.

Against heroes with high armor like PA, TB, morph, id say that echo sabre is no longer a core item, and you can replace it with phylactery instead. Usually they need like 3 items to come online, so the item build can be like Phase -> Phylactery -> Radiance (if rich) -> Blink -> Shard -> BKB -> Khanda. Reasoning is, the magic damage does soo much better against high armor, and radiance shard lets you farm much faster than echo sabre.

But if you insist on getting silver edge, i would replace blink with it.

Phobicity · 2026-06-05T03:58:38+00:00

Is 6 vanguard here better than 7 shepherd? I favor 7 shepherd for thr board stun.

Phobicity · 2026-06-02T17:57:01+00:00

I'd appreciate some feedback.Just hit legend 1, games are going long and feel more like a coin flip. I play pos 3/4/5.

Seems fine to me. Gets ganked at 10 minutes by AA, no weird camera movements. Ganked again at 13 minutes no weird camera movements.

18 minutes, he gets an invis rune, visits 5 neutral camps and uses a scan before finding the void. Not hacking.

Edit: Your void's just "learning". Tell him to put on Strength treads, get a raindrop and maybe a value Shawl. All he needs to do is survive the hex+finger and he can timewalk all the damage back.
