First time Atropos [Bane Elemental]

[Mortifer]

uh well, Grommash whined to me about there beeing so little replays posted here and maybe even less watched...

ill do what i can i guess, i watch some from time to time and now i decided to upload something ^_^

This is my first try ever at Bane Elemental and yes its a public game (didnt want to play pickup since its in the early morning and i havent slept or eaten for a VERY long time, :sorry: Gromm). I didnt know what items to get as Atropos is a bit special hero, somwhere i got carried away by his even stats and wanted to boost in a way so that he would stay as he is...

So yeah if you got any tips for me after watching the replay, whatever it might be (concerning Atropos ofc) item/skill builds, or just general im happy for your advice.

I found him a rather easy played hero and pretty fun to, i can imagine the fun you would have with a good team wich has good understanding of each other, and with heroes like techies ^_^

Sooooo, game was fairly one-sided, but i think i did well.

lawl, considering there was only one leaver in this game, it wasn't THAt bad for a public game, funny at some points with your allies though ^^, and gj owning newbs in this game :p, haha jk, well played.

so anyways about this Bane Elmental hero, his skills/stats really are kinda special like you mentioned, you need a lot of mana/reg early game to do his sleep,life leech,ultimate (forgot the name) combo, since those cast a lot iirc, and really, the linkens you got for him, was a PERFECT choice, its gives the mana regeneration he needs for casting his spells, and helps his ultimate not getting dispelled (if course there was no stunners/dispellers at your enemy team but still) the stats bounces helps a lot too (especially the hp), so yeah again, a PERFECT item on Bane Elmental.

now what you get on Bane after Linkens? its basically depends on what heroes you're playing against, like in this case you were facing mostly low hp agillity/caster based heroes, now you've chose to go Skadi after linkens, and thats a good item overall but, you'll kinda start to get useless late game (damage wise) your leech,ultimate combo wont just do enough damage to kill, so i think in this case, i would've gone :

3 Nulls, preseverance, DAGON, Linkenz, upgrading Dagon from that point on.

of course the 3 NULLs here is to help doing this leech,cach,dagon, gg agillity/inta heroes, now if you facing a mix of str heroes, you gonna need to skip dagon and go Linkenz,Guinsoo (Nulls aren't needed here just like the build you made in this game) so with Guinsoo, you pretty much are a GREAT dispeller AND also a heavy damage dealer, cause like you posted, Atrobos has even stats, which means good damage/attackspeed overall, and now that you have guinsoo at hands, you pretty much own str heroes like this: sleep one hero, hex another, hit hit hit hit, leech, finish with ultimate.

oh and thanks for posting the replay btw.

peace!

You should try out Necronomicon. The additional mana, health and nice little minions are a big help in conjunction with fiend's grip. My personal build is 2x Bracers, Necronomicon, Boots of Travel, Skadi, Guinsoos. Work on your farming by the way. You should attempt to get last hits :P.

thx for the comments, somehow i feelt that linkens would aid me (especially with the mana and regen since i realised his spellcosts was quite high and with a low mana pool) but after that i just played around, i guess somehow in my tired mind skadi sounded like a good idea, maybe cuse i get slow for some extra "disable" =)

and about the last hits, well usually i at least try to get last hits ^_^, but sometimes (like when i play at early morning without sleep on public) i just dont care, and Bane seems to have a very good attack speed for last hitting while just tagging along and attackmoving =)

PS: sorry for not answering @ bnet Grommash, i was kinda sleeping ^_^

i knew it that you fell a sleep! since you staid up too late to watch that 4k vs verge clanwar the night before (my bad :p) and you said you have lectures early at the next morning so, thats how i figured it out. : ]

I go pretty much same build but get guinsoos before skadi. Also if i feel i have farmed alot early game i may go early dagon then continue necronomicon.
