Devilswrath played a very interesting FW/IS split that looked a bit like this: I remember the premise but i cant for the life of me remember any of the other runes. The bg focused on crown of barbs on units and spamming cheap spells, this would heal up friendly champs and damage enemy's. one of the coolest combos i ever have seen was done here with Mercy, that would bring enemy champs back to life, giving you the nora, but the double chopping blocks would make short work of them so they did not really get to use them again. Anybody remember the rest of this bg?
He posted it ages ago I'll see if I can dig it up. Edit: super old but should give you some sort of idea. http://forums.poxnora.com/index.php?threads/several-op-decks-devilsrath-edition.15038/
AAH Thanks! so it seems to be meta champs with that specific rune spell/equip set. How would we make this look now? what are the respective meta units in factions now? @Markoth @themacca This is what i have so far: EDIT: Becuase nepy and drache and sheepy are the meta kings @nepyonisdead @Slencer
Think you might be better off with a 2nd Hammerstrike or Steal Life instead of Disarm. Also think you need some anti-summon in there... Desecration is 25 nora, meaning it has a cd 5, so I dont think you really need 2 of those. Besides, often you might hit yourself due to the huge AoE. If you must keep 2 of those you might not need excavator since you can get rid of relics in AoE 5.
I would say depths of despair, but my guess is that spell is garbage. What about favor for reduced spell costs? I forgot about that, split hero thing. Allowed. but you can run any hero you want that is split right? Doesn't have to be fw, or is
Blockade is something important that Excavator brings. Seism for relics Desecration can't reach is gravy.
I'm seeing a lot of lot of low hp champs. I would try to keep that to a minimum, especially if you want to get chops out early. The global dam on Blood Phoenix is great, but low hp makes it a target for chops , so I think it's a mistake. Even though it's only 45 hp, I think that Kingmaker could have a spot. Bubble helps keep the hp up on your units and ofc all the other stuff he brings to the board.
ye, put in excavater instead of pheonix, was thinking the same thing. takes up the same spot as kingmaker does kinda. (both with blockade)
The blocks will be hitting the mercy champs a lot, so high HP pools matters less than you might think (but still matters).
