DotA Discussion / Hero builts
« on: November 26, 2010, 15:34 »
Ok
I am openning this thread in order to hear the views of experienced DotA players.
I consider myself to be experienced and decent DotA player. From my experience I have realised that proposed hero builts do not always apply ingame. In fact, most games I play (and I am talking about games with good players) require the player to think outside of the box and create a built according to the game flow.
For example we all know that the "proposed" riki built is a good orb (like desolator or diffusal) and then make AS and agi. Well, I was in a game vs Lancer and brood, and I decided not to go for anything like that, but farm gem early, so by the time I get 6 I would be invi gem and neutralize those two irritating heroes. After that, and in order to keep gem, I made vanguard and linkens (for sustainability and survival). Needless to say we won by a big margin.
Similar examples occur all the time. I would really like to hear your opinions on this issue.
