There is some good advice in that thread.
Wand parts 2 tangoes 1 salve then boots wand roh Aquila raindrops in lane by 10 minutes I think then Linkens into shotgun/travels/manta/bkb/blink whatever. Never buy dragon lance it sucks balls
starting items circlet 4 or 8 tangos 4x branch
item build wand quellingblade boots ringofhealth (health earlier if needed in lane) linkens rush bots dragonlance manta skadi butterfly
never join a fight and just constantly splitpush the map. u get linkens around min 11-12 if ur not a retard and after that ur unkillable. u can join fights if u have a replicate for safety and you wont be able to die.
if someone picks antimage tp to his lane as soon as youre level 9, replicate him, run at him with the replicate. itll fuck him up.
shotguns the better build but it doesnt rlly matter, its nice to have it if ur going to try and fight and theres specific targets that have to die, like oracle or dazzle or something.
this heros probably the best safelaner in pub matches at the moment outside of drow where your whole team picks around drow. im not a good safelaner and its possible for me to completely shit on people because this heros stupid in public matchmaking.
no thats tralf, it was a pretty garbage game overall but i dont think its too far off from the norm in <6k avg games.
bots are a lot better for splitpushing and thats what morphling should be doing for most of hte game anyway. he forces so much attention because its not possible to kill morphling without multiple heros and he'll always keep pushing in your sidelanes
i think secret did the best job of showing this against col, secret pretty much traded towers evenly against a huskar beastmaster because none of them could stop morphling splitpush. envy went early bots i believe (he started treads and went bots after linkens and i think one item, im pretty sure the treads choice was a waste anyway, u dont need treads in these scenarios)
against better ppl ur opportunities for splitpush are a lot more limited cuz of shit like riki so then id go treads but if u splitpush properly in pubs at low mmr no1s coordinated enough to ever deal with u
morphlings damage is pure stats and qb amps stat based damage. same reason u get it on drow and stuff. morph doesnt have much slot issues so its not like ull sell it super early either.
KR you're the man. I hope you get in a good team and make a lot of money.
i dunno i just focused on splitpushing and ended up entirely useless while i couldnt even kill people with this build (though mb i just farm slowly and shouldve have at least skadi by this time), even when like one or two people tp (storm/magina) i have to go back to do something eles
like 5 of those 6 deaths were avoidable but im pretty sure that going shotgun is much more retardproof than this thing, you're still relying on your team to win fights and when opponents ignore you and just wipe them and go for hg, they push a lot faster than you
or just one person tps and annoys you to a level where you need to morph for str/run away/replicate away but then ure stuck as 1v4 as your teammates are dead
well you have to have allies that understand that there should never be a straight up 5v5 fight. you only fight around towers and you want heros that can stall out for morphling. heroes like elder titan or kotl are super good cuz u can spam out waves and make it impossible to fight.
morph is one of the best building hitters in the game cuz he has pure agi = high as/damage. in the game you link, legion cant kill u, phx cant kill u, etc.
obviously this style of play is reliant on your allies not being huge retards and feeding everywhere. i think eblades generally the way to go but against huskar mainly i skip it
u should go eblade in low mmr games 99% of the time, it easier to snowball that way.
probably it's just me being shit at this, whenever i play something like antimage or morphling and focus on buildings i lose 90% of times and i have no idea what am i doing wrong
