yung griphook

    How would you build him?

    COINCOLLECTOR

      Nope one of the worst in fact.

      King of Low Prio

        nothing really changed in the last few months......

        yung griphook

          Just don't see anyone play him anymore. Along with spec

          Professor Dog

            Cuz tanky cores are the thing. I mean he's good against tb, and any one else who is illusion based but ls and sven not so much

              no. go get cleave and crit and kill things. when I play ember it just ends as this shit http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2598877825 and I want no part of that cancer

              stupid fuck 2000

                No he's quite shit honestly, extremely situational. I actually don't know why they removed the vision from his ulti.

                  I agree you can be 8-0-0 20 minutes into the game and still lose if your team sucks, you cant carry by your own like for example morph.
                  Ever extremaly late with 2 rapeirs you might not have enough damange to kill naix or other tanky cores.
                  I hope he will get buffed next patch or strenght heros will be nerfed.

                    Max flame guard and searing chains first with 1 point in ultimate
                    Gank and split push with flame guard and searing chains then escape with ultimate
                    Build for mid game

                      no

                      Rain

                        Late game, he can become a more annoyingly unstoppable uphill base-defense-system than even sniper, given the right circumstances.
                        We had mega'd them, and still cudnt breach their throne for a half hour against the fucking double rapier, empowered imba spirit

                          ^^ If u can get a hero to shift queue blink into 1 active -> hex or just cast them really fast or whatever

                          a good ember can always remnant out of duel or any spell with a cast time, but arcane seal, global silence, orchid/sheep shit like that gets you killed

                          ofc a good team will double force staff the ember if he has 2 rapira, but that rarely actually happens

                            embers so bad

                            Urip

                              Ember is really fun to play, snowball the game till rapiers. Then throw the game when you made a mistake and lost them.
