[GUIDE COMPETITION] - YOUR SOUL IS MINE !! - A GUIDE TO TERRORBLADE in General Discussion

    INTRODUCTION :
    Terrorblade is a pusher/hard carry hero. He is the best carry in dota simply because he has the highest agility gain (after PL) amongst all the heroes.
    This guide will be covering how to play Terrorblade as the ultimate hard carry.

    SKILL BUILDS :

    SINCE I USE LEGACY I AM GOING TO EXPLAIN IT IN THAT TERMS - C (REFLECTION) - E (CONJURE IMAGE) - T - (METAMORPHOSIS) - R (SUNDER)

    T,C, [stats], T, T, R, T, [stats], [stats], E, R, E, E, E, [stats], R, [stats], [stats], [stats], [stats], [stats], [stats], C, C, C

    ABOUT THIS BUILT :

    1) Your main ability is Metamorphosis so you are aiming at maxing that first as soon as possible. It gives bonus extra damage to your base damage.
    2) The only reason you wont want to max reflection is because it slows for 60% at all levels.
    3) Taking stats is vital because at level 6 if you use reflection and metamorphosis you wont have enough mana for sunder and so you have to take that 1 stat and not only will that increase your agility but also give you bonus on Metamorphosis.
    4) Now why not take conjure images ? - Well the reason is very simple. The images deal a percentage of damage based on your base damage. At early game you wont have much damage so taking images is so waste instead if you put that 1 point in stats you get extra agility, increased attack speed, attack damage.
    5) Always aim to stack as much agility as possible. Like making items which contains ultimate orbs and drums. Example - making skadi, manta, butterfly, drums, and linkens will make his agility more than 200. (OMFG)

    INVENTORIES :
    There are 2 main core inventories which i always like to use. Terrorblade does have lots of physical armor (highest base armor 7) but he is still like many agile heroes very feeble.

    1) First inventory build (USEFUL WHEN YOU HAVE TOO MANY NUKERS AND HEAVY DAMAGE HEROES ) LIKE FOR EXAMPLE -
    If you get Spirit breaker, lina, lion, bristleback, timbersaw, slardar etc :-

    *Early game - quelling blade, tango, salve and 3 branches.
    IF YOU CAN RUSH MIDAS UNDER 5 AND HALF MINUTES OR MAYBE EVEN 6 MINS THEN GO FOR MIDAS OTHERWISE ITS A WASTE.
    *Then - Vanguard, Power Treads.
    *Mid game - Skadi under 20 mins.
    *Late game - Manta, Butterfly, Assault Cuirass, Heart of Tarrasque (At this point you can sell vanguard)

    2) Second build is simple -
    *Early game - quelling blade, tango, salve and 3 branches.
    IF YOU CAN RUSH MIDAS UNDER 5 AND HALF MINUTES OR MAYBE EVEN 6 MINS THEN GO FOR MIDAS OTHERWISE ITS A WASTE.
    *Then - Power treads, Skadi and Manta (If you are good at farming you can get them both under 23 mins) [I have managed Power treads, hand of midas and eye of skadi in 16 mins and then Manta in 21 mins. Entirely possible to get all that in 20 mins if you are an amazing farmer]
    *Late game - Butterfly, Stananic, Assault or even Divine Rapier.

    I AM SORRY MY GUIDE LOOKS ORDINARY.

      i get quelling tango shield --> poor man shield

      then if I do well, straight radiance

      otherwise, treads/yasha/radiance ---> manta/bfly/heart or skadi

      also, his base regen is 2.6 which is way above average so that's a good pointer

        Midas is a terrible item overall on TB because he doesn't need a farm accelerator.

        PL has a full 1 extra agi gain per level over TB. I appreciate the good intentions, but please check your facts before writing a guide to avoid spreading misinformation.

        Maxing conjure image is very important for accelerating his farm. You need level 4 CI and a basic item like drums for his illusion to solo a medium camp. Also you're not going to get extra last hits in lane while jungling if your conjure image is at a low level.

          skill build is so bad! taking extra points in stats instead of conjure image is sucha bad idea! metamorphosis gives great damage early game and some more illusions will just rape the enemy!

              Actually they nerfed PL agility gain so now Tb has the most agi gain in the game. Also Midas is used for xp gain also. You can make midas with every hero just for the xp boost.
              Some people just take midas as a farm booster but the xp boost is also the key. With the new midas recipe being more expensive it takes 33 mins to recover the full gold of Midas. So technically its for the xp boost now.
              Also as i said before at level 1 the images deal 30% of your damage which is absolutely trash.

                The last change to PL's agi gain was in 6.75 and it was a buff from 2.8 to 4.2. Just what game are you playing? DotA by Guinsoo?

                    Ok i take that back but didnt they nerf it by 2 at some levels.

                    Numberwang

                      Grogu

                        There changes have been made. Thanks for that.

                          Guide sucks. Terrorblade is a fast push hero while enemy team not high lvl enough or too busy with their shit to defend.. conjure image is good for push even early game.. for mana issue thats because ur item build suck. I play 5k-6k sea ranked (undoubtedly hardest server) and 9 out of 10 tb goes tread and drum with the occasional phase drum. A good tb can get his robe bracer treads by lv 6 to 7 to fix mana issue. Then easy push towers with help of drums active. My friend (5th ranked tb in players ranking laughed at this guide)

                          Satellizer

                            So, Is Radiance on TB a thing?

                            I've seen Demon doing it alot, as he farms just like a radiance naga.

                            Derby

                              Yes its a good item for split / rat

                              Zenoth

                                Oh hello derby you managed to instapick TB before me in my last game where I played ember. I was so mad.

                                Fay

                                  wrekt, no maelstorm vs illusion

                                  Derby

                                    Haha I didn't expect to win that game. Hard life against seer. Mid lost and offlane lost @.@

                                    Zenoth

                                      Well rubick dcing every 2 minutes certainly contributed. ... I think you would have been better off getting evasion instead of that second BKB.

                                      Derby

                                        Im not sure if evasion dodges ember skill as I never played ember. Besides I was down to 4sec against a scythe eblade dagon5 tinker. Only thing that was rly killing me was the stun and nukes not right clicks. If I had 4s bkb probably would hv been hexed more often which makes my evasion useless
