Item Selection

Hello Guys,

I’m AKA and today I have brought you guys a series that is ‘Item Selection’. In this post we will discuss the summary and some examples which I will discussing in detail in upcoming post.

First thing first player consider when a new patch comes pro players define a meta and everyone follows the build blindly so, please don’t do that they do it because they have a specific reason and logic behind it. So, try to know the logic behind it of when that build item is good and when it is not.

As we know every match have different hero combination which cannot be predicted so a fixed build or item will not help. Try to improvise it with your logic. Believe me guys I have done it and then after losing a lot I realized it that same build and items won’t help me win so I improvised it and it has helped me a lot.

Now as the topic is Item Selection what it means is sometimes, we get confused like do we need to go manta style or S&Y. SO, there is when you apply game knowledge comes in picture. Assume you are pl and you completed yasha and now you are confused either to go for manta or go for S&Y. So, its simple look at your match up decided weather you die because of silence, root, slow then go for manta style if you are killed because of chain stun or long duration stun like dragon tail, shackle or etc. then go S&Y because you will have status resistance which will help you in reducing the duration of stuns.

There are many more combos like satanic or heart of tarrasque, skadi or basher, etc. bot of these and many other combos will be discussed in further post so stay tune for more blog post.

Thank you, guys for reading this post and stay tune for more dota 2 related content.

Good Game

Pure Damage

Hello Guys, I’m AKA and today I have brought you guys a new form of damage that is ‘ Pure ’. This post will be very short because the concept of pure damage is very simple. First let us discuss what hero’s and items do pure damage. Heroes like Pudge, Bane, Specter etc. have abilities that does pure damage. There are no such items yet that does pure damage there are some items like MKB which pierce the evasion and deals damage but that is not pure. Let us see with an example how does a pure damage works but first let us compare it with other form of damage. As we know that in damage types like physical and magical there are ways to reduce it buy in pure damage you cannot reduce it. Its means that if a hero ability damage is 300 and it is pure then the damage taken by you is also 300. Yes, there is no magic resistance in it. So, in short there is no way in which you can reduce the effect but you can survive it like making blade mail it will reflect damage in the same way done to ...

Shadow Blade or Glimmer Cape

Hello Guys, I’m AKA and today I have brought you guys a new topic that is ‘ Shadow Blade or Glimmer Cape ’. As we discussed some items are categories based on the roles like carry and support. As we first consider glimmer cape this is something a support player goes so that on ganking him he has something to escape. The good part of glimmer cape is that it cast during channeling which means spells like freezing field, black hole, death ward etc. Some time what happens is enemy hero does not have dust and when you cast your channeling spell that there are chances you might get a kill. So, in this way you can win a team fight. the best part of glimmer cape is that it can be casted on our friends which mean not only you but you can also help your core to escape a fight. Now let’s see shadow blade. As a personal experience I can tell this item is not good for core there are many reasons for it. As it was buffed in the recent patch it is good some hero like tiny, lina, drow ranger, sn...

Status Effect :- Root

Image
Hello Guys, I’m AKA and today I have brought you guys a new status effect which is ‘ Root ’. It is a very simple concept with respect to other status effect we discussed. So, in a root enemy hero cannot move or use any abilities or item that contribute in movement. Root :- So, the above image is just a representation of the of root. Heroes like Meepo, Naga Siren, Oracle etc. have abilities which can root enemy hero. Unlike other status effect in root, you can attack but you cannot move or use abilities that relates to movement of the hero. So, it is a good way of keeping enemy hero in place and attack them. It is very easy to dispel root. Items like BKB, Manta Style, Guardian Greaves etc. can be used to dispel root. It is a good way to initiate a fight let’s take an example of it. Pudge first ability hook is something you need to be very particular so what most of the players do is root an enemy hero and then hook him so that it is a confirm initiation of the fight. Thank you, ...
