Channeling spells BkB v Lothar's

Posted: Sun Jul 15, 2007 2:07 pm

Who should get what for instance
Crystal Maiden and Witch doctor and Enigma, should they all just get get BkB or do you thing lothar's can be more effective?

BkB gives hp
Lothar's doesn't but theyll have to buy wards or gems to get you but if you make a mistake ull be visible.....

Lend me ur thoughts thx. Confused

Lothar's would do good. Has two functions, escaping and completing your chanelling. On the other hand BKB adds up to your HP but do not do good in escaping.

it depends, on crystal it's better BKB cause no hp, and no hp regen, but on witch doctor with his second skill activate the lothar is enough...

only wish that there is no sand king tiny ... or other zone stuners ..

Depends. BKB weakness: permabasher and normal attack. Lothar weakness: AoE stun and true sight. Make perfect? Get both! Just kidding... XD

I'll go for Lothars. Coz players tend to ignore buying gem because it eats up inventroy space which can be used for big items. Also sentry wards don't lasts that long. If the situation is tight, I also include blink dagger. So I sometimes have blink and Lothars. I only do this when I random a hero without escaping skills.

Any hero with AoE stuns/disables screws lothars. And we're not talking abt gems yet.

i voted lothar's since it isn't just for channeling spells, also for escaping and ambushing, and sometimes, WW is part of a hero's combo, like, WW > sunder./

Enigma must get BKB. Definitely. Since he's getting (or should be getting) blink dagger, he has an escape mechanism. BKB + Blink + Black Hole is better than Blink + Black Hole + WW. The last thing is BH's bloody cooldown matches BKB's cooldown as well, and BKB gives 130 hp while lothars? Nil HP, same cd as blink, more expensive, gives Enigma useless AGI when we all know spells define Enigma.

Well.. First make sure that the opponents have some kind of interrupt skill before buying Lothar's or BKB.
