Can we agree that Liquid is no longer competitive in this scene?
Because they like being on the receiving end of moonlight shadow ganks and arrows, I guess.
Hella behind the scenes drama, I'm calling it.

I can never have enough hats. There arent enough good doom items aside from swords and that one thing of wings.
Also lifestealer needs more... and omni needs good gear too. most of his stuff is too samey

u kno im kinda in a good mood right now so im guna give u free tips
1) don't buy drums or bkb ever
2) phase boots ---> bottle ---> wand/oov (optional) ---> bf ---> bf ---> Daedalus ---> rapier
3) play like a bitch the entire game and just ks with sleight + chains, always let your team initiate first then just clean up, ember is pretty much the best janitor hero in the game, can 1v3-4 enemy teams that are kinda low on mana/hp pretty easily, he just needs some peeps to distract for him in teamfights while he goes all ninjitsu naruto on them in the background. Treat him like a ranged hero, because he is--sleight is 1200 range and is basically your auto attack.
4) the second u have level 4 fg just jump on supports with <800 hp for free kills, but keep a safety remnant so u can jump back out when their nerdy team desperately tries to TP in to save CM so they feel like they are protecting her kinda i call it freakinsyndrome
*if said support is lion, rhasta, AA, or witch doctor don't worry about team support no one cares about the ugly ones
5) After you have your second BF and crystalys you can pretty much one shot creep waves and the enemy can never siege your t3's so gg.

this is so wrong it hurts--awful build that I have to thank TC for popularizing so pubs continue to fail with ember. only thing worse is the maelstrom build
Drums give you absolutely nothing you need, the MS is useless, the AS is useless, the only usefulness you get out of drums is 9 str for 2000g, buy a bracer if u wanna be a bitch.
also 1 bf is equivalent to 1 deso in price but it gives you MORE damage potential (if you cleave just one target you will do more damage than deso, and you usually cleave A LOT more than once on average) and it solves your mana problems.
That build gimps your late game with similar mid game payoff to the mass BF build. Haly is right, ember is a powerful ganker and the advantage he has on Kunkka/AM is that he doesn't even need items to start snowballing off kills, that's why the BF build is so easy to pull off, just hit 6 and farm kills and you'll have double BF/crystalys at 25-30 minutes no problem. Then you become an unstoppable mid to late game monster. Absolutely nothing is going to waste, BF build is strong early game, mid game, and the strongest late game build by far--ember is a monster early on by the virtue of his own skills and becomes an absolute nightmare past the 30 minute mark, making it almost impossible for enemy teams to push high ground.
milkman approved build, this is a great way to throw the game while claiming your farm is great
best comeback build in the game, best mid and lategame ember build hands down (and his early game is so good that all he needs is phase/wand/bottle to stomp people), and MOST IMPORTANTLY--it's the best goddamn fountain farming build the game has ever seen
but by all means continue to gimp yourselves with maelstroms and desos, makes ember easier to deal with in pubs. i'm trying to show you the light at my own expense here.
