What is it with blademail in General Discussion

    I can't figure out why people always buy blademail.

    https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3155412810
    i dont see any reason why pudge or cent would get a blademail
    in this match over a pipe, or cent a vanguard/aghs

    I usually dont buy blademail at all, unless axe/lc or i have a drow/sniper on the enemy team and im
    the initiator

    is this a normal skill thing or am i undervaluing blademail?

    evy

      No, they're just retarded
      MORE HP MORE RWFLECT THEIR CARRY DIE ARRRRR

      trench

        Because ns people will keep hitting you even when you pop bm. And stop when they have 10%hp

        Rocket

          Because blademail beats ench hurricane pike
          Ta can't meld strike you when refraction is down
          Timber wrecks himself if he chains over you
          Seems ok to me.

            i always recommend the worst player on my team to buy blademail, in this case he will at least feed with some purpose (aka damage to enemy) xD but in my bracket people are even stupid to turn it on on time (they do so only when left with 100 hp, lel)

                contrary to popular believe, players at high 2k learned to stop hitting when blademail is active.

                guess abbaddon spammers increased awareness of the possibility to stop right clicking someone

                  There are some heroes that have BM as a core item like AXE and LC, also it's a situational item for some heroes like for example Spec if she is underfarmed and can't get fast Radiance then BM is an option.

                  The thing is BM is just situational on most of Heroes on Dota and maybe they need it because of the situation, it's not about the reason but the situation.

                      pops out blade mail while 50-100% hp picks different target.

                              blademail is amazing on pudge, especially when you are an early game lead and you are looking to keep that going into mid game.
