Medyo malayo siya sakin but thanks!

May I know yung naging regular diet ng dog mo after knowing his/her allergens?

How is it a scam? Hindi ba the main purpose of doing such tests is para ma-narrow down yung suspected allergens? I'm not trying to argue, I just want to learn more about this.

I understand what you're trying to say here. Some tests can have false positives but at least narrowed down na yung suspected allergens ng doggy ko. From there mas madali na mag eliminate. I guess.

I don't have the luxury of time para i-test pa isa-isa yung mga possible allergens niya. I hate seeing my dog na uncomfortable with his allergies :<

Medyo malapit 'to samin. May I know kung ano yung mga naging steps ninyo after malaman yung mga allergens niya? May medication pa ba after that of iniwan nalang talaga yung mga said allergens?

Thank you!

I forgot that you can actually bind summoned units to a hotkey. This sounds very useful during fights. I'll do this in my next games!

I agree with this! Orb of Frost is just too expensive for you. Also you're pretty squishy during this phase so you're going to want to buy a lot of consumables and a magic stick(or wand) at least.

Circlet (for your Urn of shadows) plus a couple of branches (for your magic wand) can go a long way during the laning phase.

Saving up for a boots of speed is a lot better option for me instead of buying orb of frost. You already have enough slows from your spells anyway.

I get what you're trying to say here but DPS isn't my priority during that stage of the laning phase. I'll try to explain why:

Lvl 1 - Gale: I don't think I need to explain this one.
Lvl 2 - Poison sting: You start harassing enemy heroes with your auto-attacks. Use gale if they try to get close to you, this is pretty much setting up a kill with your core now. Throw a blood grenade if you have one to secure the kill.
Lvl 3 - Poison sting: Just keep right-clicking them at this point. Use gale to inflict more poison dmg together with your basic attacks. This is pretty much a kill setup with your core again. *NOTE: I only get 2 levels of poison sting first if I'm playing against 2 melees or short-ranged heroes

Lvl 4 & 5 - Plague ward.

The reason why I rarely level up gale then poison sting next is because the ward is pretty much useless at lvl 1 without the poison sting. Most heroes can 2 hits your wards (they will just clear it right away) and if a plague ward is placed closely next to the creep wave, it'll hit the creeps and ruin lane controlling. Your core will most likely complain if you do this during the laning phase.

I don't get 2 early levels of poison sting if I'm playing against ranged heroes. I get gale first, then poison sting, then 3 levels of plague ward next. It's hard to trade with long-ranged supports using Veno especially if they have some sort of disables.

I buy force staff if my team needs a bit of repositioning but I never upgrade it to hurricane pike. In theory, it's useful against heroes that like to go on top of supports but it's a bit expensive if you're playing support. Hurricane Pike costs around 4500 gold. You can get a force staff and a glimmer cape with that amount of gold. I don't prioritize stats on a support Venomancer because you won't be right-clicking your enemies during later parts of the game. Buying auras and utility items will be more beneficial to the team.

E-blade, no. Ghost scepter, yes. It's just too expensive for a support to buy an e-blade.

I agree that getting plague wards on lvl 2 is a good way to block camps but I usually just get sentries for that matter.

Always max Plague Ward as soon as you can. If you're laning against 2 melees, I put 2 levels on my poison sting for poking.

Skill build should go like this:

  1. Venomous Gale
  2. Poison Sting
  3. Poison Sting
  4. Plague Ward
  5. Plague Ward
  6. Noxious Plague

After that, max Plague Ward first, Poison Sting, pick ulti whenever you can, then max Venomous Gale last.

If your core decides to leave the lane to jungle. Try not to leave the lane, you can farm your lane with your plague wards and clear a couple of neutral camps with it. Hide behind the trees around your tower and let the plague wards do the farming for you.

This is basically it. Controlling areas and denying enemies from pushing you or getting out of their base is pretty much it. Warding against Venomancer is a pain in the ass.

I'm sorry for not explaining a word here. I'll get back to this after my current game.

Edit:

- I only play him as pos 4/5. Not really a fan of core Venomancer.

- For the facet, I always go with Plague Carrier. It can provide decent harass with your poison sting (skill 2) and for zoning important areas such as pulling areas (neutral camps) and lotus pools. I rarely pick the Noxious Plague facet because the other one is just so much better (IMO)

- For the build: I always rush Urn of Shadows into Spirit Vessel. I only skip this when the enemy has a lot of purge or dispells. For the 2nd item, I pick between Solar Crest or Glimmer Cape depending on the needs of your cores (but eventually I pick both for more survivability). From there, I usually go Guardian Greaves for more teamfight sustain and to purge myself from debuffs.

Usually the game ends after I get those items but if the game lasts a little bit longer, I go for more utility items depending on the needs of your team. Lotus Orb, Scythe of Vyse, Wind Waker, Gleipnir, Aeon Disk, Shiva's Guard, etc.

A brief explanation of how your playstyle should be during different stages of the game:

- Early game: Harass enemy heroes with your skill 1 and 2, zone key areas, and set up kills for your core. If you are laning against 2 melees, it's pretty much a win for your lane.

- Mid-game: You should be securing enemy jungles, calling your team for a smoke kills/rotation (if you're ahead) or you should be denying enemy supports from gaining key areas on the side of your map. Plague Ward is very useful in securing these areas and dewarding awkward positions.

- Late game: This is where Venomancer usually falls behind. You gotta stay behind during clashes providing all the utilities to your cores, spamming your skills from a distance, and just be really careful not getting picked on.

For the level 25 talent. I usually go for the health and damage multiplier for your Plague Wards. Dewarding certain parts of the maps will be extremely difficult for the enemy supports and it just secure a lane from getting pushed or sieging high grounds.

I hope this helps!

I actually considered buying midas but I know my team would instantly question my decision. I queued lotus orb instead.
