theres always problem with definition tankthe right definition if tank is that tank has to gave abilities that annoying enemies and they need to choose focus on him to not affects battle or carry that win battles his real goal is attention, this is regular tank statement in every game so in dota centaur isnt real tank, tank doesnt have to have high HP just skill that are annoying, centaur is the last target and everyone is afraid to attack him cause of HP and aura and stun,real tank is necrolyte cause of AoE nuke healing and dmging and AoE aura that drain % life its very hard to ignore so enemies have to decide attack him or any other hero that is dangerous, in that way its tank alchimist too, nuke AoE mist that is crucial to them, so every hero that got very high impact on battle is tank that pushes enemies to choose, so no centaur you avoid him not attack him, but every radi bearer is tank if fact, so bristle is half tank he needs HP but he can do dmg wih spray and bristle and radi if got itso its my post about tanks what do you think

the_justice: SomethingMAD .. listen i know how to win lvl 20 but i want to know how ...
http://playdota.eu/stats/game/1975572/apodeu1-fast-3finally i found a game that i played bristle in it .. as u can c i was playing with void and tiny and phantom and clock .. non of them would actually consider buying vlad there .. the only carry that actually must buy vlad is magina .. bounty mb .. but riki ofc not and melee heroes could be tanks too anyway everyone has his own set and his own playstyle
basil stick boots vg pt some magic resistance and if u are main carry radiance . If u are not bm.
Hod vs nuker or Vangard vs carries but imo Hod is better option ,so much high regen + his great ms while he is chased he can regen himself fast so it would take so much time to get him.Also radiance is MUST for him , for chasing enemy ,slow + radi + his Ms you cant survive if you dont have team mates around or lothar.Hot is like power-up for Hod ,it gives more regen while out of combat so piggy cant be slaughtered easily. And pipe is mu as well. Many pipes saved games with 70,80 % chanse of lossing ,in team fight pipe is best item if casted in right time.Bkb can be good ,extra str but only usable when escapng,i bet many people wont target you.Mlonjir i good as well if you play as carry (just in case you overfed and farmed in early game) ,also i saw deso + assault.The are many builds for him. One of best late gamers semi -carries like abbadon.
Bristle is not a hero that deals dmg instantly so you must have items that pumps your survavilty up while he pops spells to get stacks for his ult (=+ dmg output).If you are doing well get a radiance after your vanguard, if not get straigh to BM. If can farm get HoT if u cant AoM is another possible choice who works well.But let's say that bm is a core to get your enemy a bit low while poping spells to ge stacks.
