Radience is 100% amazing, very versatile.. can be used on channelers (if ur pubbing) to deal extra damage, imagne Grip while having necro summons and rad on you, only to be followed by a brain sap.. -_-' have to be pretty big to survive that, and if he has allies, theres almost no way you're going to.

I would say that Radiance on Lion is quite wrong. It takes too long to farm, which is not Lion's role. And when he finally would get it, it would probably be too late.

radiance is only stupid on bane, reasonable on other heroes, fits more than 60% of the heroes well, bad thing is it doesnt stack. the reason why radiance heroes are referred to as "carry" , is because they now hold a team value

Hi guys. Here i would like to share my thoughts on radiance. When you hear radiance you probably think of a carry item that is to be bought fast or not at all. But i think differently. Could it be used as a second, third, or even luxury item? Could it be used on non-carry heroes? Of course.Radiance is usually bought within 25-35 minutes on these carry heroes.
Juggernaut,Rikkimaru,Terrorblade,Weaver,Dragon knight, Dirge,Razor, phantom lancer, and leoric.

It is also used on these non carry heroes.
Ish~kafel- Works well with ionic shell and surge.
Bradwarden- Works well with return and your high hp, see if they can tank through return and immolation while attempting to take our 4000 hp down.
Pit lord- Works well with firestorm and pit of malice, adds to your farm skill.

Is there more heroes who can use this item well?Yes, many many more... IT works well with almost all combos, and is good for team battles. Usually one radiance user per team every game, and this is often the carry. The radiance user is trusted to own in leagues. And if it is not achieved under 35 minutes is considered useless.

I see a future where the leading radiance users are heroes like lion, sand king, and leshrac.
Imagine 8 seconds of disable+immolation and finger of death...
10 pulses of 145 damage...
200 AOE damage per second...

The possibilities are endless and are being discovered day by day. And as this item grows more and more popular more heroes will use it.

my sand king builds core item is radiance lol, but you could include terrorblade in the carry with rdiance list, he holds the team together with his dps even if he dont last long in battle

Radiance is my favourite item Smile

coz it s very good for farming and killing.
However in a real game, u need to consider ur part in it.
Eg. Axe. Radiance is not bad for him, but for the same price, taras seems to be better for him as his role in a team is a tanker. So, be wise in choosing item. Do not selfish. <no offence> :peace: Very Happy
