Lina Inverse

JennTS SG

I kinda feel at the start she can get VERY gay (not that i'm complaining.) With 3 attack spells, she easily pawns any other AGI or INT hero about the same level as her.

For example...lvl 9 bone fletcher...aprox...800 hp? All I have to do is come from the back, cast Light Strike, stun 1.6s, Dragon Slave, and Laguna Blade it, and its dead instantly, even at full mana and HP.

I mean...its so gay, I've killed tons of heros at full life in just slightly over 2 seconds. Plus a lvl 3 Laguna Blade coolsdown in about 90 seconds. Its kinda amusing about mid - late game when people at 2/3rd life think its alright and you just come out and zap them. =)

Pretty funny yesterday though...had a score of 38 2, and I pratically owned everyone in everything. Higest normal damage, higest HP, fastest attack speed, higest mana pool and best spells.

Items?
Power Threads
Guinsoo
Scepter
Refresher Orb
Eye of Skadi
Hyperstone

Initially all I did was go around blasting people with my spells...but at around lvl 20 I realized my normal attack was the higest, plus my speed was pretty damn fast too, so I kinda got lazy and just decided to use my normal attack...lol. Stupid Razor was scared of me even after I was at 1/2 life and I just used my Laguna Blade on someone else. And when I was pretty much VERY lazy I would just come out and hex someone, Laguna Blade it, Refresh and Laguna Blade it again...damn that was fun.

i really wonder how you made soo many uber items..she has a super slow movement speed,a lousy stun that misses most of the times,and slow atk speed making her farming sucks..the only time she owns is against agil and other intel heroes at early-mid game..plus not to mention her spells uses up alot of her mana.. Laughing

shade343 SG

The stun must use sound judgement to get it to work. But must pros would be able to escape it. Laughing

stellazio SG

one thing about the stun is the range involved..when u see her slow ass coming towards u,u siam sure miss liao..although i got see some pros before who stun the area behind u..meaning they anticipate ur movement..soo usually for her sutn to be effective its guinsoo or eul.. Laughing

JennTS SG

farming? i farm by killing heros. usually lvl 11 can make guinsoo le. truth is that i find that i farm faster using Lina than Drow...which i considered to be a pretty good farmer.

about the stun...you just dont know how to use it. quick reflexes help too =)
funny thing about it though...alot of times at the start when i try to use it, (abit hard cause i usually go mid and they can see when i move foward) initially my light strike misses...but somehow or another both enemy heros usually find their way into it...lol (yea i usually only cast it on 2 heros)

also you see alot of dumb heros like bone, they WW and just come out of nowhere and just stand there and shoot you. (of course you dont expect them to be moving though) all you need to do is cast light strike on him, dragon slave and laguna bye bye le. high lvl u just guinsoo them can already.

movement speed...i'll admit that sucks...but the attack speed is fine actually, at lvl 25 when you have skadi, hyperstone and ultimate...lol

late game was fine because they got pawned like shit and were all kickass low levels. not to mention my refresher made shit alot easier.

my mana pool was over 2.2k which had enough for 2 lagunas, light strike, dragon slave, hex and refresh.

shade343 SG

Duh. Obviously stun behind lah. Then stun in front? Laughing

heavenscloud SG

lol, if the person to be stunned aniticipated that stunning-the-area-behind thing
then her stun is useless. Laughing

stellazio SG

seriously don't play pubbies anymore..come play inhouses and you'll know how good your standard really is..her atk speed is slow at the start and the skill to increase her atk speed is usually learnt at much later levels..

ps:any hero with hyperstone and treads can be a good farmer.. Laughing

shade343 SG

You only mention Bone fletcher. How about PA, SA, DP and Centaur? Laughing

stellazio SG

no they anticipated for her to stun the area they're currently in not the area they're back tracking to.. Laughing

JennTS SG

well...if they're gonna run from me pretty much hopeless to even try. which is why i only cast light strike on dumbass idiots like bone which makes pathatic attempts to ambush you, or people who run towards you.

either that your gonna have to backstab them, or pretty much not even use it at all. guinsoo makes stuff alot easier though.

i'll admit, i still miss quite alot...but i think my accuracy of it is pretty high at over 70% hit rate.

shade343 SG

Nobody will run towards you......unless its centaur. Laughing

stellazio SG

seriously most of the ppl i see stuns the area where the enemy is standing.. Neutral

stellazio SG

only str heroes got the life to tank her 3 skills combined together at maxed levels la.. Laughing

shade343 SG

Next time, get a dagon. Laughing

stellazio SG

make that a centaur with bkb..you will see poor lina running for her damn life.. Laughing

JennTS SG

PA...you can see the idiot about to blink strike you...just target yourself.

SA...abit harder...but low life and idiocity makes it easy to kill.

DP...whats so hard? just like any other hero.

Centaur...well all depends. If he tries to run towards you to stun & attack you just time it perfectly. If he blink towards you...abit harder to anticipate. But once he stuns you just cast on yourself and try to kill him if his HP is low enough. If its too high just harass it or run or whatever.

JennTS SG

any melee hero that wants to attack you will run towards you.

JennTS SG

never encounted any spell immune heros yet...cept jug and naix.

who knows? i usually harassed them well enough to own them...so im not too sure about the BKB shit.

anyway just run and zap him when it runs out if his life is low enough.
