    Improving my MK combo

    Hello,

    Recently I've been playing a lot of Monkey King with varying success, though most of the time I end up winning with a pretty decent score, but I still feel that I'm not doing my combo properly, just mindlessly pressing W-E-W-Q-Q and watching them die. Hell, I'm not even 100% sure what my W does, I just know it pushes people and does damage.

    Here is a replay of me doing pretty good with Monkey King in a 1500 game (1500 is my real bracket, no smurfing). 87399700

    If an experienced Monkey King player could watch this (it's a pretty short game) and point out what I did wrong and what I could have done better I would be very grateful.

    Also, this thread is why I feel I'm doing something wrong. What does unbind and bind to projectile mean and how do I do a half heavenly vault? I don't get that thread at all and it's closed so I can't ask there.

    Thank you,
    Envisionise

    Doing the very well timed combo is pretty worthless now and it has some risk of completely messing it up and doing even less damage than any other combo...
    Just do W, Shift Queue E, Shift Queue W, the MK will combo at lightning speed. Use your Q before or after this, depending on your relative distance to the opponent, and don't forget to fit in auto attacks between the first Q and the last Q for maximum damage, should the opponent be able to outrun you.

    Mk has no more bonus dmg from combo. Just roll your face over the keyboard...
    How I combo stun, 2x vault, second stun will proc when you vaulted him back, dashes and autos or vault creep to get next to your enemy (taked dmg when you land) vault again, if done properly you push him back, where you can get alot of good autoattacks with stuns+dashes.

    Also a good alternative, especially when the enemy has like half HP early on and you don't have enough mana for the entire combo.

    Alright thanks, so all this about half vaults doesn't work anymore?

    It's pressing and holding shift before you use a skill or issue a command. It's done to queue orders so the game makes your hero do them in the assigned order you gave...

    With Monkey King it's done to make his combo really fast, since the game will avoid any unnecessary extra frames, therefore it's done as fast as technically possible.

    So it's like this : W -> Shift + E -> Shift + W
    That simple. You do it all in sucession and with enough time before your first W hits, aka do this command order not hugging the enemy or it won't really be possible.

    Nope, just use W+Shift E+W on target and Q+Q = anyone dead

    or W+W+E, it doesnt really matter anymore

    Counters to MK's combo if you happen to be laned vs him and a nuker? Tower is no defence and he can be quite tricky to stun. ? 3 x ?

    why do people do all this shift-queue crap? you can just E right before you W and both vaults will keep the enemy on the rock. seems fine to me.

    i usaly, if u want, valt over a creeper hitting ur enemy and then volt him for the 2nd time, then use you E (rock stun) then use auto atk and if he is still alive and running away, use ur Q (dash) to hit him and rape him

    u can always volt ur rock to start the killing, u move double the distance so u can initiate from further back, might take some aim practice, but its not too hard, volting ur rock is usaly good when the enemy are all standing close together because u land volt on them all then instead of 1 or 2

    so W+W+E+Q+Q

    Because it is easier, goes extremely fast, and is guaranteed to yield full damage (given that the combo actually goes off and you're not stunned in the middle or something).
