You should have a third option on the votin thingy. Something like: "Sometimes" or "on the right heroes". then I'd go for that (most probably would though, but still). Lately I've been getting it for silencer though, along with BoT. since he need both MS and AS. Just too bad I lose the 16 dmg that treads provide (+10 and +6 from maxed glavies).

IMO, you shouldn't get it on lich.

Lich's staples are at most Meka, and boots.

The rest depends on the players.
League games(meaning pros) tend to let Lich buy the chicken at the start, and wards. All they ever get on Lich is Boots + mass TPs + Mekansm.

All other than leagues, people often buy the typical items for Int nukers, like Guinsoo, or Aghanims(Although rare), or sometimes, Refresher Orb.

Lich never needed Midas or much money anyway.

If you happen to read this, give us an explanation. XD

Well what would you do if you play a game and after 12 minutes you notice "Oh now there's 2400 gold" and you're thinking there's nothing nice to buy with so much yet so little in so early a Dota game? And then you see that most of your "allies" aren't even half as close (I can see their money in the circles of power) and you'll have a gut feeling they are going to ruin the whole game for you if you depend so much on them? Of course you'll buy Midas and get even more money and buy even better items and start owning and leave the rest behind!

If you can say Midas delays your items, I can say you're very not in touch with reality, that's all.

@caspian

I see. What end-game items did you get? And what is your kill-death ratio?

yay i am 5% of the population.

some heroes are really good with it, doom for instance, anyone who likes to neut should consider it.

i am quite fond of spending 2625 gold on HoM ultimately on it then sitting a crow near a creep camp that is prone to spawning high level creeps (aka the ones that can).
