"ra is a tank'

[Infamous23]

when will these kids realize that not every strength hero in the game isn't a tank and that every int hero is a "support" or that every agi hero is a " carry". RA has 2 spells that scale into the late game, that his aura and his 2nd spell, he carries by being tanky and hard to kill, kinda like defiler with her ulty and sr with his aura and his spammable offensive spell.

I"m getting sick of kids treating me like a "tank" when i play RA, Ra just isn't a tank and its just stupid to treat him like one, dude needs farm and can carry better mid game than most heroes if he has taht actual farm.

TLDR: kids make me laugh when they say that amuna RA is a "tank"

[Schi_Town]

I'd apologize but I'm just not that kind of guy.

Its kinda like everyone who plays blitz, they think he's agi but they run him as a carry 99 percent of the time he is played in 1600-1800 games. I play SR with a 2.0 kdr and we got blitz yelling at me on the mic to ward up, haha

I banlist anyone who ever says that.

Ra, like every other STR hero, can be a tank with decent farm.

Standard hotbl/shamans with his aura, make him hard to kill early on, but the main problem i have with RA is his low armor.

If you don't get armorboots on him, a sols bulwark can hit him in the negatives early on and negate all his tankyness.

Or the fact that his 2 offensive spells both use his hp? Armor isn't as big of a problem as losing 21% (if you walk into your meteor) of your current hp each time you q+w someone. 6+8+4 = 16 hp/sec but that can't compare to losing hundreds of hp just from yourself.

Its not Ra and every other STR hero, its Ra and every other hero, attribute got jack **** to do about it. Gear and/or defensive skills has everything to do about it. Ra got **** str gain and **** armor so as a hero he isnt tanky at all. It all comes from gear, and dont tell me its his uberregen, he got like a trinket of restoration worth of regen more than any other hero

I can confidently say i got one of the best RA's within the 1600-1800 bracket :P, that being said..RA needs atleast a bullwark or a barbed armor at some point in the game cus of low armor. Thats why i was mad when RA got the nerfs, its for the fact that any dps carry with a shieldbreaker counters him and that stun is also easy to dodge.

The only tank in HoN is The only one with a taunt ability.

The only tank in HoN is The only one with a taunt ability.

also has a taunt ability. Does not make him a tank.

I wish people with this mentality would stick to playing WoW. I play numerous games that have tanks that do not need a taunt(hon included). Tanking is about item build, skill build, and position.

That armadon, accursed, etc are 100% tanking provided they are positioning themselves appropriately for the teamfights.

Not really. Electrician, Legionaire, Kraken, Armadon, are truly hard to kill. They are some kind of walking fortress. Tank is a role we're suiting in game, not a hero. Defiler, Soul reaper, and even dampeer with proper items and HP recovery can tank aswell. Same Ra. You can't say he si not a tanky one, because he clearly is. He is one of the best flash farmer in game, You can obtain Steamboots, HoBl, Shaman headress and Behemoth hearth on 32:00. So as you see, You outfarm any other hero in game very much, which make u harder to kill at this moment, making You some kind of a tank. Tank never doesn't means, You can't Carry as him. Ra got 2, spammable spells, with huge AoE and magic dmg, which scales into late game. In the end, for me Ra is a:

Agrro taking hero,
semi - carry,
a "tanky" one (thanks to his HP / armor items),
and a nuker (low cooldown spells, huge dmg).

I think many ppl there will agree with me about that.

[[SBT]Renegateor]

^ Then try to hit ppl with the meteor? If you hit 2 enemys with meteor (wich you always should in teamfights anyways) you get 10% additional hp back.

And armor isn't that big of a problem? You have negative armor with a sols on enemy team. Take some physical burst like MK and you're done for, unless you get one yourself. (he has the 4th lowest starting armor)

My god. Dude, do you have a ****ing brain?
Puppet master's ability does not make the enemy force to attack you unless you are standing in his face.
This ability makes the enemy attack enemy or friend. And if the enemy is attacking a friend its not really taunting.

Are you damaged?
Tanking requires you to have aggro which you can only get by taunting.. And who is the only hero with taunt in the game? Oh right, thats !
Btw, no one focuses a tank in MOBA games unless they are taunted like

I don't think you know what tanking is.

and anyone who believes tank = taunt doesn't understand simple logic.

What game are YOU playing? Tanky heroes like armadon draw player aggro regularly at least up to 1700, and I've seen teams foolishly blow their load onto a tanky hero in tournaments more than once. No, heroes other than lego can't literally force someone to attack them; they draw aggro organically(like a taunt in a RPG is supposed to represent happening in the RPG world) by being in someone's face and doing their best to draw attention.

First of all, chill a bit kid. Angry aint good. Nextly, You don't need taunt to take agrro. For example armadon can easly rush into 5 people, and just back and dmg foes with extra spine burst. We're playing hon, and like i said, There is a many hero, that can Tank, as long as they can carry. ( MoA can Carry, but he is better playing as support / semi carry. Moraxus is a extra tank, but with proper farm You can build him as carry with mock etc. Not even talking about Wild soul). As You can see, there is many roles You can suit your hero - everything is dependent on you.

Go back to WoW kid. Aggro is no requirement for tanks.

Using random WOW definition of tanking that doesnt even fit this game and acting big. You know who you are? You are a parrot. You keep repeating what you have heard without even thinking about it. And here is why your logic fails: If Legionnaire's taunt would be replaced with aoe disable of some sort that deals random damage to surrounding enemies and himself, brainless parrots like you would not consider him as tank, while in fact it would be the same hero with the same role doing same ****.

Lame thread for a lame hero. Who cares about RA
