His build is garbage. Aghanim's on OD is a waste, shadow blade as well. AC too. Virtually nothing other than his sheepstick was a good purchase.

So I've been playing vengeful spirit a couple of times this week. Her swap ult is mega fun and useful.

Oh you think you're getting away? Think again.
Totally fucks with people in team fights.

It's a bad build that somehow worked. I might watch the replay to see how he managed to snowball like that. (I am guessing zeus was mid against him?)
In other news I had the worst match yesterday. I am just awful with Kotl

If only it would let us find similarly skilled teammates every game.

You probably don't have enough money to buy all the items for it but enough to buy two out of the three. I assume you were at the secret shop and didn't have the recipe on you right?
It does, its just the system doesn't work well when the guy who randoms every game gets a character he is bad at and a person who has played 90% of his games as a carry gets a support (And Vice Versa)
This.
Yeah that's right. It doesn't say 'Not enough gold' though.

No, not really ;\ Maybe if you get a BKB it could be viable, but the fact that getting a MoM forces you to get a BKB is meh. BKB alone isn't a bad idea, but the whole point of OD is stacking INT items so he gets ridiculous as fuck and can either rip through enemies or get a refresher and kill them instantly. His agi isn't that bad so you don't really need the extra attack speed, and the move speed isn't really needed since you can just astral and catch up like that.
It's just one of those pub builds that works out because the other team makes mistakes and lets you get super farmed lol.
edit; tl;dr you're offense is already fine but you're int, so you need to work on defense and getting your hero ready for fights. Mek, Force Staff, Sheep, all help you in that. Even Atos does.

The recipe isn't sold at the secret shop though, so if you try and buy it there instead it will give you both components.

What's Full Sail?
The fact that someone is still allowed to access Dota 2 after 3,950 reports is pretty disheartening.

Tried Clockwerk today and he's really, really fun. A great counter to Sniper too. Hell, we totally shut him out in today's game.
Probably gonna play this hero for quite a bit.

He's a lot of fun if you get levels and farm. He is no fun when you are behind.

Hm, you guys probably right. I never play OD but his dps was ridiculous in that specific game. Still, probably better if he went int items, I guess he would have more damage in general.
However just for arguments sake, let's say he went he's int items - whatever his usual build is - instead of the Shadow Blade, Aghanims and AC but still got the MoM (because that's what lead him to snowball, I believe) do you think that, like I said before, can be viable? That would force everyone on the opposite team to buy BKB and those how don't will get punished especially if they're squishy? OR do you think it's a complete waste of an item on him because he's dmg would be so high they would die anyway (if he had his int items, using arcane orb ofc)?
Well Played!
He would die. That hero has no real escape mechanism, no range, or surprise factor to warrant a MoM pickup.

He's very fun. I actually had a fun game yesterday where I got my Aghs pretty early (before lvl 14), too bad we lost in the end because our Weaver didn't comunicate/help and tried to fight 1v5 all the fucking time without a BKB.

At the very least, tonight's possible test client update is supposed to fix box selection. It's apparently coming this week, so we know there will be something.
I have some optimism towards legion commander also. She was basically done a month ago.

I don't think I've ever seen an OD build a shadow blade/AC..
Just needs int items and usually BKB. MoM would always be a bad choice, unless you bought Heart/AC/Butterfly first maybe. Which gives you no int so your damage would be shit.

Did you just jinx us again?
Looking back at the first weeks after TI2, I expect compendium updates and rewards for the fantasy league and nothing more.
LOTS of devs online today, hoping for a sweet patch.
You have the right idea.

Ummm what is box selection exactly?
The one thing Blizzard did right over Valve.
Selecting units using the boxing method (holding down left click and dragging it over a group of units) is very strange on Source. Hell, just clicking on units is weird. Makes it a pain when I play Enigma or Chen or Meepo.
All right, so it's a matter of focusing him down. I guess it's just particular game that no one chose to pick stuns (not including Mirana's fail arrows) and that's why he got away with it.
Like I said earlier, don't know how to play him off-lane so will give this a watch ;-)
And I can't wait to get my hands on those flower treants and the Scythe of Vyse......
