[QUOTE=Jzzb;36951388]Thoughts about Assault Cuirass on Axe?[/QUOTE]
I don't think it'd be that great
You want to build Axe tanky and AC is more of a DPS item
Heart seems like a better luxury item
Is it feasible to build Travel on Ezalor as opposed to Tranquil Boots? I figured they would come much more in handy seeing as the only way I end up surviving ganks is through juking, and it's nice to be able to be everywhere as a hard pusher. It's pretty easy to reclaim the gold, too, so I don't really see them as particularly detrimental to the rest of the build.
Totally, plus when you teleport to push, you can bring a friend along for free.
Well, I figured I'd try my hand at micromanaging, so I played a bot game with Enchantress. I can't do it at all, it's pretty hard for me. Any tips on getting better at it?

Practice, really.

Control groups, shrewd usage of shift-queuing and basic shortcuts like tab
So, I'd like someone to help me with building Dirge.
I am tanky enough with vanguard and blade mail, but is sheepstick a good idea for mana regen? I usually get it as my 4th item, but I was wondering if there are other options that would be better.
Should I go for Shivas or Heart first on jungle Axe?

Honestly rushing Vanguard + dagger mid game while ganking in-between is a lot better. It just lets you initiate hard on teams, and gets you out of ganks. But heart for luxery.

This
Being able to switch units like in an RTS is the most basic necessity to having a good game with those heroes.
I didn't figure that out in the start and got my ass kicked and beaten while I was fumbling around with the selection box.

health ring > blink > vanguard > blademail > if you have this many items try buying wards so the supports can get some farm
Blademail isn't that great on Axe since why would people focus him?
Taunt
What's the best way to manage Brewmaster's Spirit Split thing? I can see it being really useful, but it's hard to position the buggers before they turn back into Brewmaster prime.

Select all, autoattack. Move as needed to head off the enemy. Remeber to use the earth panda's rock as much as possible. If you are feeling slick, you can use the Fire Panda's crazy move speed to body block people.
The storm panda's twister also last for-fucking-ever, great for taking someone out of a team-fight.
[QUOTE=Kirrimir;36976763]health ring > blink > vanguard > blademail > if you have this many items try buying wards so the supports can get some farm[/QUOTE]Yeah I meant after the core items like blink and vanguard

pro weavers get swarm of scarabs first
or so i've been told
[QUOTE=Gekkosan;37020187]pro weavers get swarm of scarabs first

situational build, you can max scarab if you are push strat because of the fact it lowers the armor of, and gives vision of everyone at their tower and can also be used to hold creep waves back behind towers
any tips on visage?
Hey guys, a little theory crafting here.
Would [B]Alchemist[/B] be a viable MoM carrier? If he popped it after his ult, he would attack insanely fast (due to the +100 AS and his crazy low BAT) and would be still be so tanky (Because let's face it, Al doesn't die until his ult is over 90% of the time) that he wouldn't be under a real threat. He also doesn't tend to get another Orb effect, so this (at least in theory) would be really viable.
I know that MoM is frowned upon on everyone but Void and sometimes sniper/enchantress, but really.
He's actually a pretty hilarious MoM carrier
SingSing built him pretty successfully with MoM, Armlet, Phase Boots, Skull Basher, and Mjolingers
May as well have fun with Alchemist if you're going to play him

SingSing builds MoM on [I]everybody[/I], so he doesn't count.

It's still good dammit!
Whats a good Void build?
I got Threads, picked up poor mans shield because I was being harassed a lot, then rushed Battle Fury, after that I got Desolator and Crystalis (and then daedalus and we won)
Is that a bad build? Should I just get MoM like everyone else?

Treads into Battlefury for splash in sphere/farming and then pickup something that gives you attack-speed: Cuirass, Mjolnir, MoM, or Butterfly all work well. If you gee enough gold, either pick up a tank item like Heart or build a different attack speed item.
[editline]3rd August 2012[/editline]
The reason you want attack speed is due to your bash. IT's generally better to hit more times then it is to hit harder on people with proc on-hits like Slardar, Barathum, Sniper, Void, Anyone who builds a Mjolnir or Skullbasher, etc.

So after getting Bfury, should I go on a farming massacre, get Mjollnir, then buy Butterfly, and end it with Desolator and Daedalus?

I'd say skip the Deso. Daed is pretty good since your crits will do splash damage, but generally you should be trying to max out your attack speed over your damage.
Rule of thumb- If your hero is dependent on dealing damage in one-few shots in conjunction with a skill (Kunkka, Gondar, Ursa, Phantom/Templar Assassin) build all or almost all damage items. If you have a effect that procs on hit with no cool-down (Slar, Sniper, Barathum, Void, Spectre, Phlancer, Anyone holding a SBasher, Abyssal, S/S&Y, MKB, Mael/Mjolnir, etc) build attack speed.

Honestly if you have those 5 rather expensive items, your game has gone on too long. You should never really be in need of more then Boots of Choice+Bfury+Attack Speed of Choice unless you are really playing catch-up with the enemy carry.
