Well worth a buy; 200 gold a pop with transmute at it's cooldown is more than decent.

Some days ago I saw a replay when SF got this item (think it was member of XcN). But he never went in the jungle to get gold, instead he kept transmutings the opposing teams necro/druid of talon.

Why did he do that?

he didnt care about the almost 50 xtra gold i guess? eh?

hmm my guide listed i think 5 values.
this is a cery useful guide, but really, you want to use midas every time the cooldown goes off, but it is useful to have.

I guess i rmb MyM|H4nni getting HOM of SF. and yes it is a waste of time to go into the forest to get a kill. Because in a solo lane, you always get more XP and gold than the jungle. (assume u last hit decently)

caspian, you should mention that transmuting a creep will cause any other creeps to come attack you so you can use this item to creep pull as well

also, good info
