Any Dota players?

Yep, he can.
If i use it right and my allies can cooperate well with me. Which is not possible while play with and against AI.



Care to explain why you said Cuirass will gave better result ?

yep2~

eh.........,i usualy get many kill when using that hero~
pure damage up to 360~


hmm............,i think because it gives more aspd,that can triggred bash and have -5 armor aura~

Explain the Purist one. Tell me your best build and let me summarize it.


and Cuirass cannot triggering bash.

hmm..................~
hard,he has many style of play~
can be skillful one,or hitter,or support,i think~


aspd can triggred bash~
cuirass gives additional aspd~

desolator not gives any~

This is alive again, huh?

Cuirass is not giving any additional damage nor stats.
Which is the only explanation why every Slardar player is weak against magic user.

Nana-kyun:
This is just a preparation before DOTA 2 released in like Q1 of 2011.

but slardar become a good killer if he can cast his bash skill more~
and cuirass gives many armor,so can makes him tougher~

hmm...................,if met magic user,he can makes HoD or pipe~

If only he can hit.
Reminder that he is still melee. and he forced to kill a hero/heroes as fast as he can because that's his job.



Magic penetrates armor.

Well, depends, I prefer using him as a ganker/support.

Besides, in armor reduction, the ideal is 0 - (-5) armor.

Oh yes, it's about each type for gameplay, i forgot lol.

Who would be the best partner for him if we use our Slardar as a ganker ?

Anyone, I guess, a gank slardar will probably have at least 1 sprint. the CD of slardar's stun is not that long + it also slows. Not to mention the fact that he is hitting the enemy along the support.

that's why he has sprint~
and have stun skill~

and when he reached his enemy,if he have a good aspd,he can cast bash easily~



eh,i think magic damage still reduced by armor~

"It also slow" wat ?

The sprint containing effect like Frenzy now ? I mean , it makes Slardar softer.

Gobbie :
Did you really ever use Purist ?

wait,wich hero are we talking in here~
@_@


i think sprint is like that from the beginning~

and the stun have slow~
if the enemy don't get stunned(at some range)~

Slardar's stun also has a slowing effect. Slows enemy units by 20% for 2 seconds afterwards. In 350 AoE there's the stun, but for 360 there's a 4 second slow, (instead of 2 second stun then 2 second slow).

And sprint increases 20% ms for 15% additional damage received. Keep in mind you're the one ganking, so you should go near the enemy fast. 20% at level 1 is enough to outrun a hero, not counting if they have blink, leap, or ms increasing spells.

I talk about your not knowing about how magic can penetrate armor.
Since Purist can have big ass armor while magic still can hurt him, lol.



My God, Nana-chan.
Since when you talked in a nice detail like this ?
Thanks for you both for the info. That's clearly my second play using Slardar. So i don't know much about his skills.

Well I used to play him, so itsy bits and pieces may give me an exploit.

Rarely used him as a killer ?

I don't. I'd rather play as a support. But I do attack and stuff, but the priority is to give the carry the kill.

Then what will be your best build when you act like a support ?
