Elder titan - Stronk, not so stronk.. thoughts? in General Discussion
Peekaboo

    So i've got this recent love for this hero again.
    Most overpowered semi carry/support that goes into lategame.
    Amazing initation/setup.

    however, in pubs.. He kinda sucks because you need to rely on your monkey team mates to get anything done.
    He farms slow, his nuke damage is pez and his ulti is hard to hit, with a large cooldown.

    Assuming you have any form of synergy with your team mates, God damn i love this hero.

    Item wise, does anyone actually have some good item builds for him?

    I've found refresher pretty amazing, as hitting two earthsplitters on anyone or any group of people absolutely shits on them

    Drums/mek seems core, and just standard utility - Halberd, forcestaff, pipe, vlads. While all this while great, seems kinda under whelming, and really missing out on some damage.
    So basically, does anyone have thoughts on some good damage builds or cool ways to play him?
    Orchid+atos in theory would be very strong on him.

    Also
    Max nat order, or max the sleep.
    Both have their merits.

      Elder Titan is superstrong against AGI carries with aton of armor, such as Morphling.

      I don't find him that strong cause the hero is so, lame. Slow, odd initations and it's hard to really setup a good stomp unless enemy has no vision so you're able to trick ur spirit around them, or as followup.

      With Naga or something to set up spells it's pretty strong, and he's pretty lategame. However he isn't as superior offlaner as you might think.

      Alright hero sometimes.

        1 level in sleep sometimes, otherwise max spirit and order usually try to have 1 level of sleep i you plan to teamfight

          He is really good at protecting Phoenix's egg.

          As items usually I buy tanky items after arcanes, like mek / ac / drums / pipe.

          Quick maffs

            MoM and punch people to death

              I find him quite difficult to play. I usually only like him in push lineups and/or against a lot of agi heroes. Like this match.

              Two big time agi carries, we went all pushers with necro, jug, et, dazzle.
