One shot necrolyte

[EdgeOfChaos]

Just wanted to share this build I've been having a lot of fun with. I may even prefer this build over my slark for stomping purposes.

1: Boots of Travel
2: Aghanim Scepter
3: Veil of Discord
4: Ethereal Blade
5: Shiva's Guard
6: Dagon5 or Radiance

The point is obviously to enhance the ultimate as far as it can go.

First in laning phase, you build either BoT or aghs. It depends: BoT if your team needs babysitting or requires heavy ganking, or Aghs if you are dying and need the extra HP, or mostly in lane phase still. Once you build both items, you can now teleport to your allies who are having trouble, and get some quick kills with Scythe for gold. Not only that, the +30 sec respawn feels like ages at low levels.

Next item taken is either Ghost Scepter or Veil of Discord. Take ghost if playing against heavy hitters like Juggernaut or Geomancer. Whenever you make it, upgrade it into Eth Blade next, and the combo is basically done. Create luxury items; I typically go radiance or shiva next for extra team presence.

Anyways when you fight an enemy, start it off by letting your aura and your team do a bit of damage, low enough that they don't retreat yet (maybe 1 spell or 10% HP). Get close enough to him and activate ethereal blade, veil, reaper scythe, and pulse (try in that order). If done right, the veil and will hit before the ethereal projectile lands.

So in total, they get -25% MR to the ethereal blade blast. Then an extra 40% damage from magical spells for the pulse and optional dagon. Then the reaper scythe hits. This combo can kill anything very suddenly, and after that you're far from useless due to Necro's general power.

Start out with clarity, branch, mantle, circlet.
Some fun things to kill with this are:
- Huskar (YES you can, due to veil)
- Meepo
- Slark (no regen for you)
- Any huge tanks

Some non-fun things are:
- Getting doomed
- Getting silenced
- BKB
- Blademail

I like playing necro as a tank, in order to survive long fights and deal heavy damage with his aura, usually ending up with travels/radiance/aghs/shivas/heart/scythe. Situational items may be pipe, linkens, e-blade, euls, bkb or blade mail.
But... When I wanna have fun, I go treads, drum, maelstrom, sny, skadi and make him into a dps. Shits funny as hell.

doesnt matter what you buy for necro.. its a easy powerful hero with a high winrate

Some other non-fun thing: non-noob enemy that knows to take out first that sneaky necro who hides behind his teammates

WONT WORK, SINCE HES ALREADY DEAD U FOOL!!!

Slain for sins of heresy by men who declared themselves holy, death only gifted Rotund'jere with an immense wrath for the living, that he can express by sending evil spirits at his foes. Taking pleasure and growing more powerful every time a living thing dies by his hands, each step of his reeks of death, and his very presence makes living things rot and wither. Now a master of torture and pain, the Necrolyte mercilessly slays any weaklings who might cross his path, always with a nasty smile on his dead face.

WAT NOW?

Challenge accepted. I'm going to build the most ridiculous items possible and see if I can win. Any suggestions?

[pharaoh]

Ill share with you guys this amazing page where u click and get a random build. I use it a lot, its like a challenge, but I dont pick this particular hero, I just random one and try to win with the items that get generated for whatever hero. The old page was named divinecourage and was way better, this one has new dota2 items too, but still cool. Now u can play a necrolyte with satanic, euls, tranquils, vlads, aquila and lothars and blame your luck.

That's an amazing tool. I did my Super Necro build here: https://entgaming.net/openstats/dota/game/11587765/ got the 2nd best score in the game
But I'm going to do some randomly generated builds now.

I had limited luck with Terrorblade's build: https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=11587875
I'm trying some other randomized builds now: https://www.twitch.tv/voyagesdelame

Knew someone "trolled", we won game so easy beacause of that build

[EdgeOfChaos]

Did better than anyone else on my team besides WD even with randomized items. Also you can give like 3 of my deaths to Furion as he treed me in the middle of fights while ranged heroes killed me.

(edit) Finally a good game with RNG build

Rest have been pretty awful tbh, and not because of me.
