    1. How do you itemize this hero?
    2. If you already have one core support item (let's say, guardian greaves in 25~ mins), but you need to transition into carry because your core(s) sucks , do you still get radiance or do you just buy something else?

      radiance after greaves? i thought ppl build naga support because she has aghs that heals allies in ulti for 70% of their max hp

        Support Naga had a much higher winrate than core Naga at TI7. Just go find and watch the replays.

          I guess I should rephrase that. If your pos 1 or/and 2 can't do jack shit, should you try to transition into a core? If yes, how?

            split push and farm with illusions as much as you can and get radiance

            also if you realize your cores can't do jack shit don't complete greaves, since core naga needs her BoTs

              at the time you have guardian greaves as naga support farming a radiance is kind of pointless? 40 min radience? not sure that will change anything

                The whole fucking point of support naga is setting up team fights for ur cores, so if they're incompetent then u lost.
                Also naga aghs is good I think but naga usually can't afford it as a support.

                  I am pretty sure support naga can transition into a core if the game goes long enough, if it has happened in pro matches where teams have failed to stop a SUPPORT NAGA from farming up a radience, it will happen in 2k pubs too.

                  I am not saying it's good, it's pretty shit because naga is a shit hero and you'll be raped by many heroes if caught, even 6 slotted, but that doesn't change the fact that if it is your only option, you should go core to win the game.

                    I would recommend force staff, glimmer cape and eul's scepter on almost any support hero in almost any game. What you require first, is a decision you have to make, based on the situation and the heroes you're against.

                    Regardless of how shitty you think your cores are, you can always turn fights around with the massive heal that agha provides, which is why I think this item is core and severely underrated and unknown.

                    The amazing thing about Naga, especially Naga with aghs is, you can both initiate and counter initiate the enemy's fight and almost always turn the tide in your favour. Positioning is key, though.
