I’d rather have zeus for a global at this point.
She’s so brittle now I wouldn’t feel comfortable chasing down anyone.
i’ve never tried Spiritbreaker before, i just used him this week and he’s very fun to use. What’ a good build early - late game?
Spectre can port to the hero and make sure the kill happens.
When I’m in a lane. I like to spam out all my mana on daggers and take damage doing random hits on heros, run back to the fountain, haunt / reality back in on the hero xx dagger into rape.
ITs way cheaper than zues.
SB = gank whore hero. I typically work either a ror or gauntlets/circlets into treads. I follow that with SnY into MKB or vlads or something.
Hmm, with Spiritbreak I always get BoT’s. With empowering haste, I don’t see why not. You can always make up for the IAS with a cuirass, but you can’t make up for the ms + damage increase anywhere else.
Not too mention movement speed adds more damage for SB.
Usual build I go for Spirit Breaker is this:
Items -
Boots, regen (only hero I ever get boots first on)
Bracersx2
BoT
S&Y
That’s pretty much my core build. From there you can get any of these items in whatever order you please; it really depends on the situation I guess.
Radiance
Heart
Cuirass
Probably by the time you get one of those above items the game will be close to ending… as long as you’re not dying a lot.
Skill build-
Empowering Haste first, Greater Bash second. Alternate between the two as you level up, get his ult at level six. I max out Haste first, but only get levels of bash as you think you need (17% chance to bash is the same for all levels, only extra knockback and bonus damage go up with level). I usually get three levels of bash before putting points into Charge of Darkness. Level up your ult when you can. SB doesn’t really need stats that much, IMO, due to his great skill syngergies and how good just simple bracers, BoT, and S&Y work on him, so I like to try to max out his skills before getting stats.
Feel free to add to it, since I’m not the best of players but think I have a good grasp on how to play SB (not like he’s hard to play anyways). :o
That’s what I meant when I said “with empowering haste, I don’t see why not”, and “ms+damage”. Treads just don’t make sense on him.
Spirit Juice: That’s exactly what my build is, except I get one level of charge at level 7, then finish maxing out the other two skills.
ok tomorrow what time we all meeting in a channel on useast to play?
well imo other than not needing to carry a tp scroll, bot doesn’t add too much. Only 20 ms more, which translates to about 4 damage more with max haste (even w/ sny). I prefer treads cause it’s much cheaper early game, adds 190 hp, and increases your dps more than bot. However, late game i can see u switching to bot to free up a slot.
I normally only keep 1 pt in charge, but in a team game, i can see charge being lvled before haste and bash.
But i always start 1 pt charge, great for lvl 1 fb and anti lvl 1 fb.
Ya, boots is great first item.
thanks. What’s the proper skill build? Is MoM a good early item for him?
also, i’ve seen other manage to get him invisible or something. i’ve only used SB once and it was a fast game… so forgive me for not knowing this stuff
Pretty much what rising stars said. I don’t like MoM on ANYONE except Void, and that’s because he rarely gets hit in Chronosphere, and he has backtrack to back him up.
MoM isn’t that great on SB because you’re supposed to be a tanky dps hero, and SB’s strength gain isn’t that great. Just get boots, two bracers, travels, s&y, and then cuirass or heart.
Skill Build:
1-5: Alternate Haste/Bash
6: Ult
7: Charge of Darkness
Then finish off haste and bash. I think it’s worth it to level up charge after that, since there’s a huge difference in acceleration time between 1-4, and that sometimes makes all the difference. If you dont like it, just take stats and finish charge later.
EDIT: I see you’re in the philipinnes… EVERYONE IN PL LOVES MOM. WHY IS THIS?!
If Sb charges long enough, he eventually turns invisible. Not invisible like stealth assassin or lothars, but invisible like phantom assasin.
skill build is up to you, but i normally go
charge
haste
haste
bash
haste
ulti
haste
bash
bash
bash
ulti
charge
charge
charge
stats
FUCK.
I hate agi-tards who pick agi last when there’s already three low hp dps heroes on the team. Fuck these idiots.
just recently found this thread. i’m not a huge fan of dota 'cause it’s killing the arcade scene but i’m pretty damn good at it just haven’t have enough time to compete in tourneys yet. anyone who wants some pubs or s2s games with me, pm me at GG. account name’s piponaz.
thanks for the info. MoM isn’t a popular item, it’s the item you’ll most likely see on void, sometimes they are on Mortred, anti-mage, troll, sven on early game but it’s not as common as you may think. Most of them are just misbuilds. void is possibly one of the most over used heros here. Thanks for the info again, did’t notice Rising Stars post. Thanks to him as well.
Lol at MoM on Anti-mage. So many things wrong with that it boggles the mind. (Well, just three things).
ya, most of those anti-mages where noob feeders (meaning, they were the opponents free food). lol.
yea it makes me cry when i see people killing his mana burn.
AM already has low life and gets wasted by disables, so let’s give him MoM so he can die even faster and do even less damage! :V
