Expert advise needed: OD and BKB in General Discussion
𐂃

    Hello dota experts,
    I was wondering if you can help me to figure out a way to deal with BKB when I pick Outworld. I feel I can't so anything but run until the BKB deactivates again. Is there any alternative to that? Right clicking won't do specially late game!

    The big problem is exactly when I need to be helpful to team using ulti and shit in teamfights, they bkb and run.

    I am still learning OD and I am usually really good vs AM and timber 1v1. It is the problem of teamfight!

    I will appreciate your expert advise.
    Oh and if I am using silly items , please tell me.

    Thank you.

      focus someone else is all you can do. or you can try to burst them down before bkb.

        would it is stupid to use BT to silence them? I haven't seen any OD use BT tbh.
        I could rush Scythe of Vyse as well I guess.

          if you're trying to deal with bkb yes

            BT doesnt prevent them from using bkb. You need nullifier for that (or hex) which is not a good item on OD.

                Don't go BT on OD, crits are useless for OD. You just have to rely on your teammates a bit when dealing with bkbs

                  u can astral urself if they go on u, and if they run then just blink hex them after it ends
                  yes the 10 second bkbs are annoying but by the time they get lower u will be able to deal with it pretty well

                        blink dagger and sheepstick is good but once they activate bkb you just have to hit other ppl

                          The best solution to enemies getting bkb is getting shivas + bkb yourself. Make it impossible for the enemy to kill you during their BKB period, and voila, you win.

                          Nothing is more fun than jumping an OD with 30 armor, just to realize you can't kill him with your bkb, and you have to start running away, and then you realize you really can't, and you die to him.

                          Also this assumes at least on par farm with the enemy heroes. If they get BKBs and all you have is a force staff, you never had the chance in first place.

                            Either you end the game before they purchase bkb or you position in a way that u don't have to fight during the bkb buff, bkb and silences completely counter OD so u can do nothing about it other than waiting it out

                                  nullifier for late game

                                    Blink hex or kite and focus others

                                      Late game bkbs are only 5 seconds, not that long to wait out. Astral is 4 seconds.

                                        i go pike blink hex most of my games
                                        you want to buy blink in like 90% of OD games btw.

                                        also, is nullifier actually bad? except the issue that you run out of slots with other items, it doesn't sound that terrible

                                          pretty sure u get blink in 100% of od games actually

                                          arin

                                            the only time when i wouldn't get blink is if i need to get bkb/linken fast because we're terribly losing or something and then the game just escalates that you need other items instead of blink like hex rush or sth

                                            unbreakable spirit

                                              Nullifier seems strong with OD since late game the enemy cores will counter u with bkb anyway, so u can probably burst then down in that muted five seconds with a couple of right clicks combined with your ult, I don't think it's a bad purchase at least better than bloodthorn though
