Dagon is good for everyone...agree or disagree?

Posted: Thu Jul 12, 2007 5:19 pm

Dagon is good with almost all heroes minus Faceless void. It gives you extra mana to spam spells and gives a good finisher so you can kill with out having to chase dangerously far.

Take SA for example. Dagon would give enough to spam blink strike and smoke screen more. And when your chasing down a hero you can finish him off before he gets to the safety of a higher level tower or is assisted by his allies.


Thoughts?

yes, agi type assassin heroes can own with dagon.
take nerubian weaver for example. equip him with a dagon, use shukuchi and spend your geminate attack, chase with shuckuchi then cast energy burst. boooom! the boost on the intelligence helps a lot in order to cast more shukuchi.

it can be good on all heroes, even faceless void. but people dont get it on all heroes because they can get other items that suit the hero like weaver with radiance or sa with manta/sny. sure u can get it for early hero kills, but it delays the late game items

I used to have a dagon addiction, I used to equip it on heroes like sven and rooftrellen, but my DoTA mentor bitchslapped me and showed me the error of my ways..

Now everybody get in line so I can slap cure you one by one.

Well i can only let Orochi slap cure you all one by one.

Or maybe i can help. No, dagon is not for everyone. In fact, i know of only one hero that should get dagon. No more.

Dagon on N'aix? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL....I don't think so. I guess it's a good way to use extra mana, but you get even MORE extra mana with Dagon...LOLOLOLOLOL...I don't think so.

Dagon is not exactly a cheap item and its only useful from early to mid game, so I wouldn't say its good for everyone. I tend to get it for intel heroes who need finishers early game (such as death prophet, harbinger, and silencer) and I occasionally get it for tree because he needs the extra mana and I think it's funny to entangle and dagon, but for other heroes the money can be better spent on other items.

To the above poster:

That's if the item is good for its money.

The topic is about is the item good for its benefits.

Dagon is essential for heroes who don't have finishing skills

Also the heroes that can increase magical damage taken can equip Dagon more efficiently.For example Pugna,Chen and maybe Dirge.

Even tough they are not hero,chickens and crows can equipSoul Booster+Dagon 5 just like in my signature Laughing Kidding of course.

benefits should always be evaluated with respect to its cost. Every item is good per se, but it really comes down to how you should spend your limited resources and I'm just arguing that certain heroes are better off getting different items. To make a long story short, Dagon is not good for everyone.

Dagon is waste of money for strength heroes I guess.
