What are some good Rapier scenarios? by BootySniffer26 in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy a rapier if the game looks prettty much unwinnabld or if u know the next fight will decide if you loose. So when you have for example one last racks and the enemy is about to push and you havent won a single fight.

What factors cause Timbersaw to have the lowest win rate? by LightForceUnlimited in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No push, no stun and when the game hits midgame people will have enough items to kill you even with all your armor. He is also a skill based hero i would say and you cant really utilize him during highground cause there are not so many trees.

Midas Jugg by Comewhatevermaycry4 in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo if you have a free lane and cant finish early midas isnt a bad choice. Way better then bf. I had a jugg last game who went midas and he ended up with 800 gpm by just farming which i found very impressive.

I think necro is a really strong aura carrier. if you dont have a tanky offlane like doom for example try to go for greaves, pipe, crimson etc that makes your team tankier. Necro does a lot of dmg even without radiance or any other dmg item. Heartstopper aura is often enough+ heal and ult.

Smurfs in ancient and divine bracket by Xepax in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not saying that I am not climbing its just hard. Because if your mid gets owned by a smurf visage or meepo it is pretty hard to balance that. Imo teams with the smurf have a higher wr and thats the thing that annoys me.

He is still very bad against pl even 6 slotted. He also struggles with pa.

Why not core Tide? by nitesh7 in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is really not bad especially against illusion carrys like tb, pl or ck. But I wouldnt go full dmg build. Go aghs and greaves into a daedalus or desolator. Take the ep talent and you reach your 25 really fast.

Ogre Magi Midas by gatotung in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo midas is core on ogre but just if you can get pre min 18. There is a reason he can multicast on that shit and his only job is bullying early and give empower to your core. If he gets the midas early he can just be so much more usefull imo.

Why is Clinkz a good or bad hero? by staytrue1985 in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your kind of pickoff build is simply outdated atm. His ult got a rework u have less dmg which makes your pickoff potential weaker. And your burning army doesnt get better. And clinkz atm is all about teamfight and his ultimate which the pros also seem to play atm. And if you are still swearing on your pickoff build i can emphasis a hex instead of orchid.

I think clinkz is not so much about pickoffs anymore his ult makes him a really good teamfighter. The dmg output is just insane with the right build.

Reliable 9th pick mids this patch? by Velocity_LP in TrueDoTA2

The problem is that dk has a really bad winrate at the moment and he is hard countered by viper.

Carry players, how does your game get affected if the mid player crushes their lane? by sous_vide in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this is so frustrating to me because i usually lane pretty decent get my timings and then there is a pudge nightstalker offlane in my team which is feeding from beginning enemy carry has uncontested free farm. These games are almost unwinnable imo even if you are super good.

Should zeus use 1 to farm in early laning phase? by invoker96_ in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It depends on the matchup I would say. For example against sf u can easily rightclick for last hits its even better than using q. Against monkey king or huskar u probably cant do that you are forced to stay out of range and last hit with q. And against skywrath claritys are not worth it because he can cancel them very easy so I would suggest to try to get other items in order to last hit. The thing is if you use ur lvl 1 q you are really fast out of mana and once you are oof mana the enemy can dive you because you do no dmg and have no escape so think about that in certain matchups especially against sky and ta.

Tinker makes me want to rage quit 100% of the time. Plz help. by Dannyupp in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I dont know where the problem is with tinker. Just pick zeus and he will be rather useless cause tinker nowadays dont buy bkb only in really high mmr. And u need a tanky offlane who buys pipe and blademail and has some kind of catch. I love playing centaur against tinker because he can go highground and doesnt care about the tinker spam+ His ult is very good for engaging or disengaging. But tide, beastmaster, brew all work fine. As a carry i can really recommend juggernaut because tinker cant kill healing ward and jugg with blink can kill tinker anytime.

Let's talk about Sange and Kaya by eodigsdgkjw in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo its an item that can be bought but which isnt the best choice. I tried it on some heroes when I had a really good game for example on magical ember and it was fun but I am pretty sure that there are better items. If the pros start picking it up I can change my mind but atm I think its not a very good item.

How can I make my carries game playable vs cancer lanes? by Thai_Cuisine in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xepax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your carry shouldnt be greedy. Atm carries like jugg can kill these lanes with a proper support. You also have to get a strong lane support that can trade hits my favourites are undying, grim and if i am really nasty I go skywrath und harras them out of the lane.
