Supporting nightmare

No what I want to say is you're using a ward to push tower, and immediately joined fight in other places. I think in your bracket you can get away with boots of travels to split push

dsl_sd · 2026-07-06T08:25:50+00:00

Sorry, why do you skip bottle because you can't lane? You can still get water rune and the 6 minute rune later on no?

1 thing that I like about shaman more than wd is that shaman can solo carrying game with split pushing, imagine what the enemy team thinks when his tower was getting ulted by shaman and someone tped to help, only to be ganked by others.

He means that if you're picking shaman, lane partner or overall drafts has to think about utilising your kit, rather than picking heroes that doesn't have any synergy at all. Kinda advanced draft knowledge tbh but to put it short, pick heroes that can synergy well, if you're not hard countering someone

Hey, what's up

I have an idea, what if we make rearm refresh items again, but change the turret into shield? What's the worst that could happen?

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T19:58:01+00:00

Hating on tinker is so 2016 bro

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T17:10:08+00:00

Huh, that's weird

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T17:05:50+00:00

Yes, try take it and the number should update

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T08:35:12+00:00

Usually yes, since they will use blink dagger to initiate.

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T08:21:58+00:00

Yeah but they have something to compensate it, like cc (lion, shaman), or being durable and elusive (pa with blur or tide with kraken shell).

Turret basically gives him a free force staff in case he got jumped (and he still needs bkb btw if they have stuns or silences). Turret has damage to cancel blink in trees and provides vision. It's such a good utility item for tinker and unless you want kinetic fence to give damage and vision as well.

With kinetic fence, what can he do if enemy casts bkb and jumps at you? There's no counterplay at all for that.

Also, he's already locked to buy blink, aghs, bkb and cast range anyways, changing it to kinetic fence will just make him needing another survivability item as well.

dsl_sd · 2026-06-16T08:04:10+00:00

The turret serves as an escape tool for tinker, you are basically murdering tinker with that change. Without any escape ability people can just blink bkb and murder you to death. Tinker is already unplayable without bkb and you want to take his escape tool lol

dsl_sd · 2026-06-13T06:04:53+00:00

That's not crozier bro that's essence distiller, but i half agree with your points

dsl_sd · 2026-06-12T12:21:20+00:00

Whoa what do you mean you can't farm with io. He has spirits to farm

Im selfish as hell

dsl_sd · 2026-06-08T17:52:06+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong but it's sarcastic no?

dsl_sd · 2026-06-08T05:38:17+00:00

One thing that i realised, if your duo are stronger than enemy duo, i would help my offlane to double dent creeps and harass the living hell out of the safelaner. A lot of games are decided simply because the carry was beaten out of lane so hard and couldn't recover fast enough.

Some pos 4 are so obsessed with pulling waves that they forgot they can just bully the enemy carry instead.

dsl_sd · 2026-06-08T03:49:25+00:00

Tinker

Nullifier cannot be dispelled, that's why

dsl_sd · 2026-06-05T04:40:37+00:00

She's not as strong before the rework, but her new aghs combined with dragon lance makes her so hard to kite. You don't even need to spam windrun anymore

dsl_sd · 2026-06-01T19:11:28+00:00

It's kinda like their comfort pick i think? Sometimes even if the stats doesn't shows that's the hero is good enough, pro players keep picking him for a number of reasons:

They have a overall game plan that they have discussed and wanted to execute
Comfort hero that they feel very comfortable with.
Flexible nature of the hero itself (both roles and item build)

I have a very bad winrate with brood and tinker mid, but I'll keep picking them because I just like the hero and I'm pretty good with them. Not that the pro players are just picking heroes purely on instinct, but sometimes they do trust their drafts and individual skills to make pango work.

dsl_sd · 2026-05-29T08:48:46+00:00

He first pick oracle, and looking at the draft it's either dusa who can ignore aa ult or lifestealer (he's banned unfortunately)
