Same all except Lotus I try it but it feels sluggish in cast time or something. I keep forgetting to check but double clicking it cast on user?
Guardian Greaves may be a bit out of reach for supports most of the time, but I tried on Necrophos and I definitely approve.
Lotus Orb feels too situational considering it mirrors rather than also blocking (so you still might die from mirroring a stun back if they're not alone, but mirroring doom or culling blade for example can be game-changing). It's at least another armour item, so if your team has both cuirass and shivas you might as well go for lotus if you want more armour.
Lotus is bullshit when your enemy won't focus on you, your teammates won't make use of your Lotus time, and when your enemies are having AoE disables laughing at your Lotus doing nothing to them
Shit son im so rich as a support in the new patch that i can actually afford to buy g graves late game. The new gold mechanic actually made solo supporting in pubs legit.
people forget that you can not only use lotus orb before an expected targeted spell but also after said spell for instance, silences and disarms, and stuns , it purges as well. I have used it and it is very useful if you keep its full use in mind. offlaners or position 3 or 4 heroes can purchase it.

I mean I spectated a couple of games and I can say that not even one of them had even 1 of the new items. I mean yes everything is situational but the new items are kind of strong and yet I don't see people buying them. Even when the situation is proper.
Are dota players waiting to see pro players pick those items in certain situations in order to copy them?(like they do with heroes) Or are they too conservative and not prone to any change?
