serious topic on evasion, mkb, and best solutions to deal with high armour in General Discussion
Jacked

    im making this topic because recently there's been some discussion on this, and no doubt it has been quite contentious as is the case whenever someone suggest a new and unusual build. now i know my reputation in this forum may not be the best, because people think im trolling and whatnot. but i'm just curious about new builds and i detest following dogmatic pro player builds.

    especially coming from a guardian, no doubt i may not be the best player in the world, but i always strive to think independently with full confidence in my own analytical skills and applying sound logic. perhaps it should be said that i do have a very very high IQ (for those who doubt my analytical ability).

    let's get right to it:

    what is the best approach to dealing with high armour and evasion? buy mkb? against PA's 50% evasion and another 25% evasion talent? theres literally no way your hitting PA let alone doing any damage against high armour heroes. the hero im suggesting to pick to counter these agi heroes is sven. because of one very important ability. cleave. which goes through evasion. i was experimenting and the build seemed bad. i was still losing to PA: First game https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3843244059 even with a lead and good farm because of 2 battlefuries i lost. i was playing sven normally, tryng to hit PA. i totally forgot about cleave. 2 battlefuries and 2 daedalus didnt seem like enough damage. i thought i needed mobility so that i could get in more than 2 hits. wrong

    the solution is actually 3 battlefuries. and you're literally stronger than kunka. you one shot almost all carries when they are near creepwaves. high evasion high armour no worries. AM bought butterfly, PA had +25% evasion talent + a butterfly. no problem winning fights. 2 is not enough because you can't one shot them (and the creepwave dies). te only choice is to one shot them.

    proof it works:

        Okay I'll assume you're not trolling
        with that build you get maximum of one cleave attack on the enemy before the entire wave is dead, supposing you get a jump on them when they're next to creeps (which you never do because you had 0 mobility/surprise items).

        1- PA becomes a creep when you use silver edge on her. killing a PA with no passives is the easiest thing to do in game. and It would've given you a chance to initiate and have a bit more mobility.
        2- Instead of Daedalus you could've gone for Bloodthorn which gives you True strike for long enough to burst her down to 25% HP (Sven would need 2 seconds only but considering you get kited a bit) .
        3-Of course MKB also comes to mind considering Sven can use the attack speed as well and .... you know.... the True strike.

        I used to go carry riki back when it was very crap and had 75% win rate with him at 1.5k MMR. It didn't Prove anything, It's low MMR anything that is built with a thought behind it works.

        instead of all the mentioned items which are very logical, you still try to go for cleave which is very unreliable just to be able to claim you have a high IQ? Sorry but new builds don't make people smarter.....

          i did get a blink so that i could ensure to get them when they are near creeps.
          mkb is bad on sven.

          Feachairu

            btw mkb doesnt really care if you have 100% evasion or something

            it has 70% chacne of not missing

              Jacked

                70% chance of not missing is not good enough when you are slow and get kited.

                Vandal

                  So the solution is to get 2 cleave items on a hero with natural cleave.

                    u can't miss someone u don't hit right?

                    Shou

                      Dude mkb giving attack speed now makes it pretty good for Sven
                      Bloodthorn gives truestrike
                      Bf on creeps isn't needed because u can just do the same tactic without bf, and it's not reliable
                      U can't count on creeps always being there
                      Silver edge as someone said is also good
                      U do get kited, but u fail to mention how ur build combats that
                      Imo there is little way to guarantee u don't get kited, so the best way to deal with it is to guarantee u kill ur target as fast as possible.

                      Feachairu

                        just get bloodthorn then?

                                    So the solution is to get 2 cleave items on a hero with natural cleave.

                                    3 cleave item is the magic number. i tried 2 and its not enough damage.
                                    just get bloodthorn then?

                                    they always buy bkb. bloodthorn dont help you farm. sven like to farm.
                                    high armor: mkb, mj

                                    you sound very ignorant. try getting mkb mj against high armour heroes, vs 1 shot from 3 battlefuries. if kunkka can be played that way, why can't sven?

                                      I still not sure if you seriously suggest BF sven or just persistence meme

                                      Kunkka force to go full burst build since he got Huge AOE and CD

                                      Sven Battlefury is just plain bad with out initiator item or heroes like DS/Mag/Enig

It is actually very competitive and challenging in its own way because of the picks, random laning, random rotations, and the lack of 5 manning or random 4 manning with 1 missing player.

                                                                                Jacked

I couldn't even burst him or manfight him without his teammates suddenly showing up.

                                                                                  However we won in the end because of what you all think is a joke, but is actually quite easy to execute. See enemy heroes walk by the creepwave, and 1 shot 2 enemy heroes with just cleave damage. If I had Mkb and tried to initiate the regular way he would've just got away. High Armour high hp bullshit. But instead 3 battlefuries ignores all your 6 slots of shit items. Lmao.

                                                                                            also you dont even need the battlefuries - i saw, in a very high mmr stream, sven killing a stunned up PA with his natural cleave only.

                                                                                              You're really banking on fighting where the enemy, be it creeps or an enemy hero, is positioned perfectly so that you can cleave PA.
                                                                                              Also, the big problem with cleave is that you can't control it. Just like all AoE things. If any of the enemies decide to get a blade mail and you cleave hit them, you're going down with them. Unlike if you have strong single-target focus and they blade mail, you could switch targets, or avoid hitting them with cleave

                                                                                              Jacked

                                                                                                Magic damage? Are fkn insane bro. Not even aghs Luna refresher can do what I do. You fucking haters.

                                                                                                It's easier to execute than you think. Fuck heads. If attacker can be relevant as kunka( think about it) doing the exact same thing, what's the Damn difference with sven. You noobs. Lmaooo
