A way to play Queen of Pain

A way to play Queen of Pain

Posted: Tue Aug 19, 2008 10:08 pm

2-3 hours ago I played a 5vs5 game. I was QoP but I cannot say that I played her alot before that match. So I wanted to post my way of play here to know your opinion for improving my play with QoP.

I was laned with Sandking aganist Slardar and gondar, started the game with 4 tangoes 5 branches. I last hitted as much as possible, got Fb and an other kill with the help of Sandking.
When i got 3800 gold, ı went to secret shop and bought Sacred relic. Then ı farmed and farmed.. Luckly ı got 2 more kills with timing the SoP and Sonic wave( Ks ) Finished radience and bought perservence. compeleted it to linkens and later bought boots of travel.
My skill build was: Ss,Blink,Sop,Sop,Sop,Sonicwave,Sop,blink, blink, blink, Sonicwave,ss,ss,ss, stats, sonicwave, stats...
I didnt buy a Boot or bracer/null.

I wanna know if my skill and item build is right.
should i max out blink and Shadowstrike?
Should i use a bottle?
Is buying no stat items and no boot noobish?
Is radience weird on her?
Are there much better items? ( should i get Aganims? )
etc. etc. etc.
I wanna get your opinions..

I don't really play QoP much, she has been consistently nerfed due to her high usage in pro games.

I'd recommend checking out pro replays, see what items they get, what skills and when (I think you can for Garena replays sometimes)

1. If it worked, and it consistently works then it must be right.

2. Yes of course!

3. Yes you should!

4. Answer to number 2, because you did not buy Boots maxing out Shadowstrike is a MUST since you can slow them down, Plus you have blink for chasing and in Early to Mid Game Akasha relies mostly on her skills not on her attacks,

5 - 6. Radiance is weird IMO, never tried it, I would have gone for Linkens first, and get more survivability items such as Shiva's Guard, and Maybe Desolator or Skadi for the Late Game, with these items of course you should but BoT or PT,

nothing is 'weird', anything can work. i saw a mask of madness once in a pro game, and it worked. if u farm radi fast enough it will work for any1, mite get u focused tho. its ur game, do whatever suits u most

Akasha is very versatile. You can do what you want with her. If it works, then good.

You can even get Manta Style on her. I do.

IMO, u only need lvl 1 blink. its better used for stats. and remember that QoP has pretty good dps so u can play her agi, or go something like deso, orchid or something. deso is good on her

I think its enough with one level of ss and one level of blink in the beginning. Max out sop and get stats. Then on level maybe 9 start getting more of blink. 1 level of shadowstrike is enough I think because it provides nough slow. But sure you can max it out later if you want to. Also, I like getting necrobook and guinsso on her. Just rocks! Linkens, orchid, EoS and all those items are very good too.

This is how i play her:

lvl 1 or 2 blink.

Max Shadow strike or Scream. (SS if you have a melee ally without slow/stun or if you are against a solo hero)

Bottle is good, so is preserverance. Boot is a must, but not as starting item of cos. Bracers/Nulls are recommended too.

After preserverance, get Mystic Staff and ultimate orb in any order (i prefer orb first) then disassemble Preseverance to make Guinsoo.

Sceptre or Orchid or Shiva's next.

Radiance is okay if your need really have no better carrier.
