General DiscussionInvoker Force Staff vs. Blink Dagger

blink's better imo
force is probably built due to the prevalent clockwerk picks

How come? The stats + HP regen + piece-by-piece purchase + scaling into Hurricane Pike + ability to use on opponents/allies all outweigh the lower CD + no path of blink + longer range on the Blink Dagger. Anything else I'm missing?

voker don't build hurricane , and he got a ton of hp regen with QQQ , the stats aren't that great , and blink i better initiating item

force is better vs radiance , clockwork , venom/viper may be

dagger is always better in my opinion

Forcestaff against clock Riki and similar shit

So longer range is outweighted by a thing that everyone will see coming?

Alright, so I guess Blink should still be my go-to item, unless the situation calls for it. Thanks, everyone! :)

blink has more split pushing and farm potential, but does nothing for escape against long range initiation and wont help you reposition against viper or other dots

Force distance is half the distance of blink and they both serve completely different purposes

You can blink dodge the flying snake's ultimate

ur gonna get dotted when you throw tornado or blast or cold snap or whatever, then he will ult after

nobody just walks up and ults first in my experience, they usually hit before ult unless you bkbed

how about you just dont play invoker

depends on the other heroes. i mainly buy force staff if riki, meepo and clock on the other team.
