Legophelia

[wulfgar863]

Sup bros skynet here. I've been working with some new lego tech and I want you guys to take a look at it.

Here is 2 replays, a win and a loss.


ID : 68521117 win
68587096 loss

Basically instead of rushing insanitarius, I go for whispering helm to portal key. The damage and lifesteal of whispering helm allows me to neutral forever and I get to control minotaurs to stack, protect me when I'm jungling and overall help my team when I'm dead or elsewhere. After about 3-4 minotaurs i can disassemble the whispering to get my helm of will back and create insanitarius. And sell the hungry spirit, or make abyssal whatever I need



Please do at least watch the replay before you bash it.

68587096 lossthe first one doesn't even have a lego in it, and the second one you didn't get whispering helm ??? *confused*

wat.

[wulfgar863]

yea sorry was a typo on the first match id.

I disassembled it to make insanitarius.

Insanitarius on lego? What

[wulfgar863]

Yea bro insanitarius is the business on lego, give it a try.

[robbiek1]

Insanitarius is a good item on pretty much every STR hero with good early farm.

[wulfgar863]

On lego more than other str heroes. The charge amplification of str is godly. 14 mins in the game with insanitarius on lego, with max charge you're dealing 550+ phys damage ot a target.Pretty much a rank 1.5 deadwood punch.

YES!!! finally someone discovers this aspect of whispring helm.

yes so many times! awesome op.

this is something i used to do with a mate:

he picked maliken, i babysat him with witchslayer. im a former high level sc/sc2 player and my micro is very very solid. he would build his whispering helm asap, control a minotaur and share his controls with me. a witchslayer this early in the game that can control a minotaur is ridiculously strong. at some point i had 2 minos, and him and me completely demolished a 2v4 fight making use of the insanely powerful minos aoe stun.

this aspect of WH is so massively underrated and there is so much potential for mindblowing pimp plays yet to be displayed.

[wulfgar863]

I do agree Lemon, Dominated minotaurs from whispering helm having unlimited lifespan is so overpowered. Luckily no one does it cause they bad:P

[M72TheLaw]

At 1300 bracket, yes, I assume they would be too bad to go gank and kill all the stacks and roll the jungle of the lego that they can nearly one shot because he bought a helm of dominator.

It's not hard to control your own jungle lol

This is the build I taught Ensoe who taught Bkid/Zfreek

I remember bkid blind banning lego against Zfreek and the reason was because he can do this pretty effectively. So this is not only a pub strat.
Other game they didnt ban lego, but they lvl 1 ganked him and kept making his jungling miserable.

[wulfgar863]

Yea I warned him about not being careful @ the level 1 spawn. Anyone who analyzes replays knows this is where he will be and you should be cautious of enemy team.

[Clytemnestra]

lol i have to try this once.

[_Anatta_]

what bracket? i like legio but i'm only around 1550ish and ppl rarely gank jungle at this level, in which case i'm thinking helm probably better?

[wulfgar863]

Here is an up to date match replay for you guys to watch the jungle pattern and how it plays out.

Match ID : 105789310

[Clytemnestra]

all you do is farm all game,and if the small camp gets warded you waste 250 gold on the hatchet(not to mention the pull camp).it's funny how you micro the minotaurs though,they save your life once :P

[Ackwell2]

all you do is farm all game
Yet he was the second most active player in the game by just looking kills and assists. Mk had only few more.
I played today with zfreek and he used that build even tho he kept the whispering helm. He had :steamboots: :whisperinghelm: :insanitarius: :portalkey: and raped everyone :P

105886644 Here is the replay.

I felt I played bad when I watched legos lvl and compared it to mine, but he had just so massive xpm :P I still had a good 570.

[ssdg]

I just want say something about dota's drow ranger.

Drow was considered a bad carry until someone went whispering helm on her. She can farm neutral so much earlier, the dominated creep can stack ancient, can help disable, wolf also provide another aura that gives her tons dmg.

If you have the micro, whispering helm is really strong.

Before anyone gets really confused as to how this could possibly work. These games are .7kd+ no stat publics

[Clytemnestra]

as an ophelia player(or not) i can say that even creeps commanded by ophelia that have more hp die very fast in teamfights.wh creeps would die even easier,so unless you really take care of them you will kinda waste it(but stacking ancients for yourself is too sexy to miss <3).

Didnt I just post a replay of a 1700 game? This technique is also been used in very high tier games.

[Scarth]

Why would you sell your hungry spirit instead of building it into an Abyssal Skull?

[Clytemnestra]

Why would you sell your hungry spirit instead of building it into an Abyssal Skull?
i was thinking to make the helm back for armor,damage and to convert more creeps.

[Scarth]

OP said he wishes to disassemble into Insanity + 450g (Selling of Spirit).

I would say Abyssal Skull is better. You could go all 3, doesnt Aura Lifesteal + Orb Lifesteal stack?

I dont think you even have to sell the helm. What other orb you really need and in late late game it builds into satanic which boosts your hp a lot and gives you a lot of base damage.

[wulfgar863]

As for selling hungry spirit it all depends on what I need in the current game, I'll usually sell it once I swap my whispering helm out for insanitarius. 2-3 minotaurs is all I usually need.

If you look up the account SkyneT you can find replays of high MMR Lego play, but it's months even years old, and is banned ( lawl )

I'm going to make a bunch of videos of HoN technology that I have never released just so I can make HoN a decent game competitively.
