Midas is situational.
You're not really afraid of going late w/Mama, if you build the right items.
With Midas, I'd go only Radiance, not cheap stuff like Solar.
Either all the way greedy or no Midas.
Recently, I've stopped going Midas altogether, except situational cases, because all three: Orchid into Radiance, MoC into Radiance and just Radiance into BKB are way better in attaining fast dominance.
Midas delays that a little bit.
Midas is super good against/with Techies or with some turtling drafts on both sides.
If you go Midas at all, then you go something like: Midas -> Radiance -> Orchid/Linkens -> BKB -> Butterfly/Blink/Manta -> Diffusal/AC/MKB/Bloodthorn -> Abyssal/Skadi/Bloodthorn, not some paper splitpushing crap.
And btw
If you pick Brood, you aim for dominance. You don't sit in lane afk.
You constantly farm/kill/ward the cliffs.
This is a hero, which you pick to kill and/or overfarm.
You should rarely be something like 5-5 or 4-3, if you win. You should kill a lot, you should farm a lot, you should join teamfights, you should rotate, whenever possible.
She isn't a carefull splitpusher, but rather a strong teamfight/deathball hero, which many people miss.
Like, if you have Radiance/Solar/Butterfly/BKB 24 mins in with Aegis (you can farm that up in creeps and kills relatively easily), you just deathball as 5 with you in the front line and you're unkillable at 24 minutes. It's a sealed GG.
Her strength after laning stage is in the flash-farm, insane mobility and her ultimate. You can manfight their carry/mid, kill 2-3 heroes per teamfight, etc.
I play a lot of brood so let me chime in. If you are winning your lane (and you should be) the get midas if your team is autisic and you cant count in them to help you win. Like if they are showing up to help your lane or 3 of them are afk jungling. If your team is on board, go with items that help you win now: radiance, orchid, deso etc.
about that joining team fights and rotation is kinda hard since you'd most likely depend on your webs and you don't join team fights you bring team fights to you
there's an xp talent. personally i think you're better off skipping midas. game is too in your face at the moment.
He usually do early rotation then he just sit on a lane farming creep and kill or escape whoever comes. Basically you only create space with him so i think midas is decent on him
Do not listen to anyone telling you anything about any specific hero in forums, it is a time waste.
Opedota/Dotabuff rankings -> then find the man, who spams [Broodmother] and has a high winrate w/him in SOLO QUEUE RANKED MM LOBBIES and has at least 5k MMR.
Watch the replays, analyse them and draw personal conclusions.
Or find a streamer, who does it on [Broodmother] and ask him direct questions, about what and why he does.
Refer only to high-rated spammers for advice on specific heroes.
Just my opinion.
A quote from someone above.
Yeah you dont rotate and gank as brood. If you see the enemy on the map diving your t1, you take the t2/t3 or rax them
guys, there's a stellar example for this. go watch game 1 of eg vs liquid, matumbaman utilized broodmama to full efficiency there.
- If you play with 4 retards, dont know how to play around Broodmama. Get hand of midas, and try to carry yourself.
- You have decent teammates, who always understand you, and buy time for you. Get Orchid, Tread, BKB. GGWP
Ok guys,its a good start already.
Btw @One Step Ahead,why radiance on Brood? I have seen it sometimes,but isnt it a hard item for her,like toggling into active inactive all the time must be a little hard,and if by chance someone see the burn they will know you are nearby,can you say why is this item so good on her?
Thank you all for the help!
Reason for radiance is that if you can get it by 7-9 mins, nobody can even walk to lane to try to kill you. it is also beneficial against melee right clickers for the evasion. It also insanely accelrates your farm. If its min 10 though and you dont have it, its best to move on to other items
Go mid, farm camps around the midlane while also farming midlane, get medallion into radiance, proceed to rape everyone. Midas will slow you down. You do not really want a solar crest, get a medallion for value tho, brood is a hero that can use all benefits of this item.

So,i was thinking on going back to broodmother now that she received some buffs.
I have seen that these days people rush hand of midas on her and i can totally see why,but i think
Brood is the single strongest pusher hero in the game before the 15 minutes mark,so i was thinking a medallion and a later solar crest would be better before malevolance.
I tried some games with midas,and it appears that every one of them got to the late game(that you want to avoid as broodmama).
Someone have tried them and have some insight about this?
Thanks
