General DiscussionHow to play as pango when countered by bs ?

If you are the only frontline for your team OR If he is literally ONLY ruptures you regardless if you join the fight late or early- get a bm.
If your team has better frontline, stay hidden till bs ruptures someone else.

if you're tanky enough you can usually tank the rupture damage to walk out of bloodrite, and if you get a lucky shot proc on bloodseeker then he cant kill you. basically you just have to make sure you dont run in with rolling thunder, instead just holding it until after rupture is used on you and it wears off or its used on someone else.

buy blyatmail and rupture the bs together

You know you could cancel Rolling Thunder by pressing back the hotkey right? (In case you have been ruptured lol)

Blade mail. I see many bloodeseeker melt be this way

Bm and roll away lol

i mean you don't even need to buy blademail if you are ahead you can just man up and win
rupture alone is just not enough damage, and if you have swashbuckle, then some lucky shot procs is more than enough time to stall.

wouldnt you die first before bs got bm'ed ? most of his item by lvl ~8 ( assuming you got bm by this lvl) are wraith bands, pt. and these increase hp. can't really man up and fight 1v1 either since lucky shot arent consistent sometimes, also bs have higher right click dmg. most of the time when i got ruptured i instantly tp lol

if you have enough health to take rupture Bladem ail , otherwise Linken

linken doesnt help vs bs he just use that q shit first, blade mail for sure good, maybe a lotus orb can work out aswell, like your role as a pango 3 invovles dying

linken does work on pango lategame cuz he cant pop linken when ur in rolling thunder
but dont rush the item. you dont always even need it. bloodseeker does not have the hp to tank blademail tbh but neither do you, not until you buy your tankier items. lucky shot isnt consistent if you just right click him but between a few right clicks and swashbuckle you almost always get it off (remember to swash buckle in place or only short distances). you can just go like treads wand vlad lotus or some shit probably

yeah but probably someone else can pop it late game, hes an agi hero so unless he has hp items which i doubt hes not gonna have more hp than the bs by a ntural build, id go for a lotus instead just make sure he is locking down himself

If you want a cheap counter to evade Bloodrite, Euls is convenient.
Just buy your usual items, tank items help too, because as long as everyone is at full HP, BS won't kill you that fast. Wait for your team to save you, move if you have to, Rupture doesn't hurt that much.

honestly as long as you dont get ruptured in rolling thunder its fine. getting ruptured when you havent still spent rolling thunder is totally fine.

Just follow this build and bs really isn’t too hard to deal with. Get a javelin, then Eul’s, then greaves then a damage item (mkb/mjolner), then aghs then Abysall and then the last item depends on the game.

i think bloodseeker wins vs any melee offlaner and is really strong laning guy too so it might be hard

you can do the pull trick and at least get gold on the lane,lotus is pretty bad item to rush first

blademail is really good item atm and it might make bs low on hp on fights if you roll+bm and let your other 2 cores handle him since he low hp or he goes back

euls is really good too vs silences,that free to play spongebob build makes sense too

lol, if u lose lane with pango against bs, either the support winning the lane which means u draft like a dog or u are the unluckiest person on earth which means u shouldnt play any rng based games. there is no fuckibng way blood win a lane against that bullshit disarm on his own

diffusal also counters bs since his manapool is really low like sven and all spells cost like big mana and probably dont go maelstorm,go something like javelin eul diffusal agha or diffu greaves i guess or javelin bm diffu greaves probably works

mjolnir is a bad item i think mkb is way better since pierces bkb unless you make mael early for farming but if you already at bad lane you dont want to make another farming item unless your mid is some good spacemaker that runs to enemy base everytime but that's like so rare in pubs and usually the carry want to hit jungle or farm like long time so buying farming item isnt really an option after u lost your lane or else going to get demolished

mjo gets nerfed too many times too,probably only vs pl or something
