How so? I like picking slark into PL because you can pounce into a mass of illusions and the real one gets marked. Having something like that is nice since his illusions don't have a consistent difference in damage taken.

I play in casual shitter tiers though so my opinion is probably not worth anything
>>
>>332227542
This a Slark without mana is a dead slark, and Dark pact cannot clear illusion fast enough. The ONLY chance he got is if he got a mjoll, use it on himself AND the PL go balls deep without purging the buff.
>>
>>332227850
Then he hits you and steals your mana, you ult he uses doppleganger and runs away with his manta bots movespeed, it's a very bad pick. Not only that, slark does very bad damage to towers and isn't very good in aggro lanes.

Either AM and/or Slark is in at least half of my goddamn games, mostly against. Ember/PA isnt picked that much admittedly but are just really annoying to play against (ember with his split pushing until he has crit/cleave and PA who for some reason always has her fucking arcana to RNG her way to a win if I dont get to play offlane against her). Forgot about void with his fucking almost no cost Q that gives him back all his hp unless you chain CC that fucker.

And lets not forget Death prophet with her new E that is basically a second ultimate. God I hate this patch.

In retrospect, most of the cancerous heroes can be pretty fucked by silence. Time to try orchid on some new heroes.
>>
>>332228039
>Then he hits you and steals your mana
No, I run away while he's pinned and let my team fuck him up.
I don't pick him to directly kill PL, I pick him as a utility to help the team as a whole kill him off fast.

He can just doppleganger and break the leash, it's not good either way. If you want a hero that can pick off a PL for your team to kill him you can do that without taking safelane farm as well.
>>
>>332228201
Dopplegang remove the pin, and he charges you.

Seriously, why are you trying so hard to prove your lack of knowledge?

Except a Pl will have a diffusal and can purge it, and Slark wont kill a PL due to doppelganger.

You really aren't good at this.

Just speaking the truth.
>>
>>332237583
The PL is spending most of his time in the unsafe lane split pushing with illusions in a long game, not even in this patch is he in le ebin memefights.
The slark actually just farms off the pushing lane.

Seems like people are following the pros and going SnY instead of MoM.

I seriously think i'm actually arguing with a child.

Because it really seems to me that you cannot fathom that Slark does not win vs a PL. It's nothing complex, and it has been explained to you many times already. Slark is bad without mana, has weak AoE and his pounce is negated by doppelganger. I don't know how i can explain it so your little brain actually understands it.

No, what really makes him broken is the instant escape. Sleight of Fist is totally broken but the instant escape makes it nearly impossible to actually kill him without a 2-3 or more hero investment, and if you fuck up for .1 seconds he escapes.
He's called Ember 'no risk' spirit for a reason, and the autistic sperg Eternal Envy plays him all the time for a reason.

>emp tornado coldsnap doesn't do damage
what fucking world are you living in? A level 10 or so invoker should have 4 or more points in quas and wex, making tornado+emp do well over 500-600 magic damage, plus the auto attacks with cold snap doing 20-40 extra magic damage, and the teammates that should show up to help. Quas Wex doesn't do nearly as much damage as Exort Quas but it is still pretty nasty.

I guess in your world completely negating what actually makes pl annoying in long running games, his solo pushing ability, isn't a big fucking deal.
The slark will actually just win in gpm because the pl probably is memeing it up with a book.

Using the power of science and dotabuff we can easily see that Slark has a sleight disadvantage vs Slark yet he wins more matches against him.

Now you can both stop arguing.

>>332242675
You mean PL, right?
There's a lot of factors that need to be taken into consideration with that, like what heroes were supporting the Slark team. I know I often see Slark in games with a really strong AoE mid like invoker, QoP, Magnus, etc. which helps the team a lot. Even just picking up Earthshaker shits all over the PL picker.

The enemy team made a ton of mistakes going after the Sven, like grouping up for a 5 fucking man Storm Hammer, not using RP once the hex was over, not having Beastmaster's roar ready, not using the Dark Seer wall, and so on.

Lich
Lion
Tidehunter
Ogre Magi
Shadow Shaman
Silencer
Viper

All low effort heroes with good game presence.

I'm not gonna list carries because you need to actually be decent at farming and not dying to make the best of them.

>>332242921
He is one of the easiest heroes to kite, and relies ENTIRELY on his BKB to not get blown the fuck out.

All you have to do is a pick a hero with a BKB piercing disable and you'll take him down with relative ease.

Same goes for heroes like Ursa.
>>
>>332244984
Yeah the radiant team fucked up hard by going in without the Beastmaster roar ready, they totally knew he had a BKB and everything.
>>
>>332244735
Supports once you get into the higher skill matches become infinitely harder than the carries, but those are all good starting heros. Tidehunter can wing games all on his own with a good ult.
>>
>>332245471
Actually, watching it, they could have potentially won if Tide hadn't had used his anchor smash while Sven was still a pig, since it pierces BKB, but it would have been close as fuck still.
>>
>>332245471

Foresight's easy

The Play wouldn't have even happened if ChuaN had bothered checking NaVi's BKBs before IG tried going in

How?
The bonus dmg taken is not an issue since if you are exchanging blows you are already doing it wrong
if you cant insta gib enemy carry you might as well not try to fight him and wait for your stun to be up to get in few blows in it
Mom is a core item on him, without it your 1 attack per second will only give you 3 auto attacks on a stunned enemy, so unless you got a team to chain stun for you, you cant kill shit
>>
>>332254409
HotS is pretty okay, but the shared experience and the fact that every single one of your teammates is extremely valuable for contesting any objective or basically doing anything late game makes it annoying as fuck.

Can't go carry a game single-handedly 20-0 as you would in league or Dota 2, instead your team is level 15 while the enemy team is level 13.
Bunch of shit.
>>
>>332254243
Anybody with high Physical or Pure damage, like OD, Timbersaw, Invoker, etc.

His advantage was being more or less immune to magic at very high stacks, but with the nerf his resistance is too low to actually tank anything of worth.

>AA is THE definite Huskar counter

This. Drop ult on him during a fight and its almost a guaranteed kill especially if the Huskar is an idiot who uses his ult while under the AA ult effect.

Sny on sven?
Not hard to spot the trench player

You will be rushing blink and bkb, you dont have time to buy shit, mom is the best item to buy along the way since unless you are leading so hard you are swimming in gold you will have hard time catching up with crappy items
>>
>>332254934
And not even that. As Armlet is pretty much THE core item on Huskar, and Armlet toggling being super fucking important for him, AA blast just destroys a Huskar if he's affected by Armlet.Which is pretty much always.
