DotA Player's Thread (We love this game)

kinda like a channeling that brings the enemy damage to you. (increases yours dcreases theirs) continues even if your stunned. good against dmage type heroes.

the damage stealing skill maybe is not as flashy as the other skill?lol
I do see people using it but its hard to notice sometimes,need to closely look at razor's damage increase but usually also the enemy is smart enough to run from razor

Thats where the eye of the tiger(storm,but ard here we call it there when there is a razor) come in though.Mighty useful in chasing.I know razor is better know but i miss the old razor.

In my opinion Ds's ulti is not as useful now because it no longer clones enemy heros .Used to cast that during team clashes and raxing towers.So much fun.I use it along with a raijin player to create a pulling combo

by the time i have level 4 of dmg steal i usually have phase boots or travel. -_-.

I don't use razor's ulti.

I kill heroes even if there are creeps.

the skill prioritizes those things.

BTW, forgive me for the late reply but, I meant Yurnero's HP is superb WHEN he holds the Heart.

you use heart on Yurnero?

not me. Slumber. I'm all for damage when it comes to yurnero.

yeah, with lifesteal, i don't really need heart anymore -_-

IDK if any of you noticed but razors ulti reduces Armour... not in the description but I remember what happened when I was at the receiving end of his eye of the strong... er storm... every hit from that skill reduced my armor by 1... is also dinct help that I had static link on me(Dmg steal skill) so yeah you can imagine what happened after that...

armor reduction? ...errr maybe other enemy hero or razor's item did that.

nope no other heroes and just razor with domi and phase... I was mortred at that time and I chanced upon him farming on our neuts...

maybe the neuts did that?

no neuts reduce armor IIRC... I also checked again a today... used razor and cheked the status of hit units... the ulti does reduce armor by 1 for every hit...

...oh. still not using that tho. -_-

The new and improved (in my opinion) razor.

Pros:

strong skill spamming in early game can bring advantages in late game

SS reduces armor by 1 every bolt hit (OUCH), yes, this is certain.

Passive 3rd skill (on lvl 4) Deals 100 damage and also slows whoever casts a single target skill on razor.

2nd skill can absorb 20 damage(on lvl 4) from target hero for 13 seconds. absorbed damage lasts at around 30 seconds (i think) max is 260 damage (Just like holding a DR, OUCH!)] Thus, player can go for defensive items and rely on the 2nd skill for damage. (imagine a sven in GS mode doing baby hits ^_^) Also, If the target can windwalk or can summon illusions, The link will stick to targets in windwalk or the original. (smile, Phantom lancer!)

Cons: (in my opinion)

2nd skill can be hard to maintain if the link is broken via far distance. chasing the running target to maintain the damage absorption is difficult to use while attacking.

Damage wise, the SS is only mediocre unless the enemy is close to dying. SS only attacks one target and only attacks the one with the lowest health (or lowest armor, i think) so it can be very annoying if the SS doesn't target the desired target.

1st and 3rd skill becomes weak as the game progresses.

as an agile attack type, Razor is usually the first target during clash (at least to me, he was T_T)

does not absorb Ursa warrior's fury swipe damage. (So Ursa warrior is still the ultimate battle type >_<)

When utilizing Manta style, Razor is easy to find if he uses his SS or 2nd skill (or any skill for that matter) BEFORE using the Manta style


edit: Woot! MY 100th POST!

errr... bout the first con, the distance... use BoT.
bout the 1st and 3rd skill, 1st use it for creeps or escaping heros. 3rd, i put it for the ms.
for him being the target, buy defensive equips.
bout the ursa thing, by the time you absorbed 200+ damage, and if you have lifesteal, I doub't i'll still be afraid of the fury swipes(i always kill him before it reaches the point where is hurts).
and for the last one. I use life steal for razor....




lol I lurve razor.

My question has always been do assists give gold. At time it seems to but at times it doesn't.



No battlefury? Good luck farming anything.
SnY is a good replacement for Deso if you're in need of some hp and movespeed

I've seen some very interesting Yurnero builds. Like a Dagon for example and he did well too until he lagged out.



My tastes for Dota heros are wierd. I play unpopular heros now like Treant Protector and Spectre. Strange isn't it.
Though I'm starting to like Anti Mage a lot. I give them the love and warmth they so sorely need.

ya sny is good but if you wanna maximize his damage you need to reduce armor
You don't need battlefury to farm, just last hit and use blade fury now and then

Treant protector isn't a unpopular hero, this guy is such a bitch to kill

EDIT: Had a PUB game awhile ago, used gondar :D. Fun when i use track on Shadow Fiend when he;s about to use lothars

I played a game earlier too. Used razor.

I was dominating until i got DC'd due to my connection.

crappy connection sux.
