General DiscussionAbout shadow fiend!

if ur carry is like slark etc mid-game carry: go RTZ-style hard carry fiend (butter,daed,skadi etc) if u have a real hard carry in safelane go mid-game items like sb, blink, eul, aghs etc

ty for that

he's shit now

Dont play SF in 6.87. If you really have too, get some cheap early game items (Treads Bottle Aquilla Wand) and then transition into either a fighting build with SnY, ganking style Shadowblade or a more farming oriented build where you get a HoD for stacking first. After this it's pretty much dmg and survivability, so BKB, Skadi, Daedalus, Mkb if evasion is a problem, Linkens against heavy single target disable (Roar, Lassoo,...), Butterfly,...

Wait, Roar is blocked by linkes?
My whole live changed.

No aghs for him?

wraith band, 2 branches, beg 2 tango, take rune, buy a salve, bottle, boots, upgrade wraith to aquila, power treads, dagger, euls, bkb, aghs, refresher, eblade,dagon for spell damage carry. ulti can be used to burst one hero or tank up after initiating due to heal.

Mushi actually went for a crazy build at Manila. He went for Euls Blink BKB into Aghs Shivas (Fnatic won the game). Aghs is actually surprisingly good even tough it seems super weird.

for a passive sf,
wraith band, 2 branches, beg 2 tango, take rune, buy a salve, bottle, boots, upgrade wraith to aquila, power treads, shadowblade, sny, upgrade shadowblade( if opponent cores have passive skills or if you wanna split push), helm, butterfly or daedulus( any one depending on situation), satanic, mkb/assault

I think aghs is good bcoz of 46 charges. You can 1 hit everyone with eul+ulti and not to mention the lifesteal you get.

Manta style

Echo sabre. 3 of them for a 4 hit multiswing
