On Pa, First deso vs First Vanguard. in General Discussion
kanra

    So I just played a game with PA going vanguard first (it was pretty late) then deso then bkb then abysal.
    Or
    First deso then vanguard then bkb then abysal.
    I like vanguard first as we can farm pretty easily and we are kinda tanky.
    We can also go for helm but this build is for people who are lazy to micro.
    Any piece of advice welcome. Any troll stuff too.

      vanguard is a safe choice howerver if you can get an 10 min deso y not get it? coupled with magic wand u can easily burst those spellcasters that u are scared of. if they have 2 or more magic or u get focused in fights vanguard then deso would be better.

      TLDR early deso can net you an easier kill those magic burst early on but if you get a little bit of a hard time buying vanguard would b better

        depends of the game, if there are heroes ganking every 10 secs go vanguard, if you have the space to farm more go deso.

          Deso is usually better but in a game where ur way too squishy u can go phase blight vanguard deso

                                  pa bf is legit
                                  vladimir on pa is waste ( talent lifesteal )
                                  jugg bf is legit aswell but manta mael is much bettee his patch

                                  i commend

                                    VG = There are early game right clicker that wants to fight you. LC, Riki and Drow.
                                    Deso = Rush it after Phase - PMS - Aquilla/Wand/Raindrop/ Bottle(All Optional) - Headress
                                    Vlads = Having a hard early game.
                                    Domi = If your looking to siege or fight early. Also good for aiding in jungling.

                                    I prefer rushing Vlads since it gives you armor and mana regen for early game but its a case of preference but a casual Headress for the raw regen and early stats.

                                      It wasn't very much of a smart comment so I just assumed it was a copycat

                                      Shou

                                        Vlads is not good anymore cuz of the lifesteal talent. It is theoretically fine, but one of its bigger benefits is already in pa's kit, and other items can cover vlads other benefits, namely domi.

                                          and on the topic of that guy using pa and winning etc etc. He probably last picks pa or has a team around it most of the time. You shouldn't judge builds by that, ez games. You could say he could win with whatever at that point. Judge it by placing pa randomly in a lineup. You get a better distribution of games. The sample sized is not skewed etc.

                                          i commend

                                            Why would you autopick PA in the first place? She is not spam material eventhough she has a high winrate across all brackets. Lol.

                                                let's say you only want to play pa. First picking pa is the only way to secure the pick. Even doing that people double carry your lane but whatever.. It's normal for me already

                                                  in that case ure basically saying that going battle fury on pa is team independant and it gives you the highest potential to 1v5 any game
                                                  incredible

                                                  i would post pepes but 40 kbps internet is no joke

                                                    players like you are motivating me to get up in mmr
                                                    because i can't accept that someone with your game knowledge is roaming around my current bracket (which is actually kinda false because u spend more time in low prio but still)

                                                      That's exactly what I'm saying xD. Unless ofc you're having a terrible game. In which case I recommend deso rush. Or an even worse game than that where I'd go vlads.

                                                          Maybe toss in hood into pipe instead of vlads or a wand or abyssal or smth.

                                                              BF PA was viable back when neuts respawn every minute, but right now I don't think its viable anymore especially neuts spawn every odd number of minutes.

                                                                feels like you're skipping your power spike way too much

                                                                    evy

                                                                          If all enemies have 35 armor,sell your armor pen items. If enemy has zero armor, deso + medallion + solar c takes you too deep into neg armor and is wasted.

                                                                          So medallion >absal or bkb > deso is good if enemy has 15-0 armor.

                                                                          Neg armor is not a very endgame strat, so i would never advise solar crest in soloq. If enemy gets bfly or ac it deletes all ur neg armor items. Medallion is just a good early dmg amp that lets you get early defensive item like vanguard or bkb

                                                                          This comment was edited

Obv -armor isnt a good lategame strat, but pa isnt a good lategame hero, so this complements her early power spike.

                                                                              BenaoLifedancer
