Husky don't need no charles barksley, he's good against a decent enough amount of lineups as a farmer.
The hero has indeed several problems:
- almost every carry counter him: jugger, lycan, AM, PL, PA, riki, ursa etc.... basically every agi rightclicker+ some str rightclickers like lycan and Leoric. Some of them simply roll over you like Jugg/Meepo/PA/PL. You need like 2 slots on them to win against them.
- a lot of others picks counter him, in particular one of the most picked shit in the game: axe. Then things like Tinker laser, Timber, Alchemist stuns, Lina agh ult, QoP ult etc...
- a lot of items counter him too. Blademail is incredibly strong against him because of his jump and dot that he can't stop. Halberd is a full 4.5 disarm on an hero that'd rather not go BkB. Sheep and whatever else. In general in the real lategame you are a non-issue because it's incredibly easy to control you
- you really want bkb against control lineups, but you have a skill that grant you 100% magic resist, making bkb sort of overpriced but W/e
It compensate all of the above by being a strong laner especially in side lanes and by having some really absurd early-lategame power if the enemy team isn't adequately farmed. Satanic Armlet Meka and you're fucking unkillable. It's funny because he feel a lot more like a mid snowball kind of hero but that's his worst lane due to the shortness of the lane and the range limitation.
The best and funnier way to make him a real pick is to decrease lvl 2 and 3 ulti cd, to give him more chasing power lategame vs all the kite and the ability to MLGdodge stuns with the leap animation. Or alternatively make Aghs ulti give +300 leap range Kappa.
Btw always take Berserker blood first level. Spears are like 15 damage for 20 as a dot on the enemy at lvl 1 absolutely not worth the average +20% spell resist and +30 ias at like 80% hp. I see a lot of people try and trade some hits with a low hp lvl 1 huskar with BB and they get FLATTENED when they realize that you have +120 ias at 30% hp and they die so fast. It's the funniest shit they come, nuke you, the nuke deal like 30 less damage than it should, then they start attack you, take you to half hp, then stun wear off and you attack back with 2 hiperstones worth of ias and trade kills. So good Kreygasm
EDIT: forgot about the composite->physical or universal->pure changes that nerfed him a bit too, as well as fucking AA well played you may ragequit now.
