Cheap items to get a good game [DOTA]

[Luffy Luff]

Get boots of speed at the begining of the game
u later make Null talisman
when u got some money make Manta Style
then for heroes without frenzy it's good to make mask of maddness
also make yourself Burize Da Konyan it'll give tou critical strike
and if possible make radiance in the end and you will be a perfect hero slayer

Well Null talisman.. that depends whether your hero is int or not. Theres like Agi bracer and etcc

That... seems like pretty expensive build tho.

Well any hero is ok with that cause in DotA Mana is very important but if you can gain money fast Soul Booster is a better option.

i think we know, lol.
yes in dota mana is kind of important but i wouldnt suggest all of those items on someone like Mortred, as its a "noob" thing to get buriz with her. almost everyone gets battlefury and i would suggest satanic and then you can drop someone in a heartbeat

MKB > all on PA.

You dont take into consideration heroes like casters or something. Manta Style isn't really worth it in that scenario. People would try to get Aghanims so they can get Int boost and thier ultimates increases (if you have the right hero).

that lame my pa starts out with 3 wriath bands then i get BF by then im like level 11-14 then i make tread then i start making either mkb or bkb just incase of a stunner cause they will own pa. after that it really how much u want 2 be a dick like one game i had treads, mkb, bkb, eye, 2 divine rapier it was a sweet game 32 kills and zero deaths

 

[ChrisH36]

I think its cuz pa is ment for late game ownage.

 

[Biske]

Alot of heros are meant as late game ownage I've found out....

 

[azn_dudex]

yup just about all the agile heros.

 

[ChrisH36]

Until Mr. Strength heroes come into play. Then some int heroes are almost rendered useless.

who you calling lame? satanic on pa = no death because 23% life leech + her criticals will heal her quite a bit. plus you have a death pact which is maybe 600 life?
btw: your game with 32-0 i think is bs, and ill always think that unless you have a replay to proove to me.

 

[azn_dudex]

i don't have a replay but ill be glad to show u my skills first hand dream walker

 

[Dream_Walker]

psh i dun care im just saying i dont believe you. almost every phantom assassin ive seen has died ONCE or more (and not many times after that )

 

[ChrisH36]

Break it up you two. Start a 1 on 1 if you want to settle this dispute.

As for this strategy... you still haven't answered my question! WHAT HERO DID YOU USE THAT ON?

 

[Jenny]

Satanic sucks on PA because she gets no damage benefit.

Other than Null Talisman, there are a couple of good 'cheap' items.

Ring of Basilus - Very good early creeping item, and late game can provide a large boost in mana regeneration. Should be the first it

em to be sold for space, though.

Headdress of Regeneration - Very good creeping item, doubly good summoning heroes. Very good for Intelligence heroes, which have low life generation rates.

Hand of Midas - the 25% boost in attack speed isn't much early game, but the boost with heroes like the Bone Fletcher (with Strafe), the Lightning Revenant (with Berserk) etc, this becomes imbalanced late game. The money gaining ability isn't bad either, and this item doesn't drop in -id.

Power Treads - You should know.

Vitality Booster - En route to Soul Booster and beyond, get this first unless you have a reason to. This is because when you run out of mana, chances are you're also low on health. Anyone needs a health boost. Also useful if you want an early Heart of Tarrasque.

Cranium Basher - OK, so it's not exactly cheap, but this item is nasty with Agility heroes.

Quarterstaff - I think this item is underrated. It's not bad for early game, and you can always get a Butterfly if you want with it.

Mask of Death - Not everyone needs a Mask of Madness early game, and this is useful for any hero.*

If you are going to talk in general about items, there are just some that have to be mentioned. In my opinion, blade mail is the best item for any caster to get when he/she is against a str hero. bracers are a great start for any hero, because, if you are a caster they start you with mana, if you are agil, you need hp, and if you are hp, you need the bonus to start. These and boots are the best three early game items.

 

[Biske]

Ah yes, Blade Mail, I get that alot when I'm Melee going against Melee.

 

[ChrisH36]

Heck, Greg told me about one guy who did nothing but buy Blade Mails, just thinking about that was hilarious.
