Default PDGG Witch Doctor w/ New Visage


PDGG Witch Doctor + new Visage

31:09 [All] doomsheep: EPIC FUCKING BOUNCES

Game features some crazy early game skills from Scourge, and some great use of the new familiars for Visage (keeping them safe, scouting and not engaging directly - nice work WarlockMischel). Some really nice Windrunner-esque Cask use and hilarious delay tactics - Witch Doctor is definitely an awesome hero to make use of early. There's a twist in the game quite soon though, not going to give it away here. What I will say is, I ended up initiating each fight in my usual suicidal manner! (My other teammates also played well, but we haven't seen many people use the new Familiars decently yet so I though I would mention that in specific).

Yes, it really is. I even asked Visage to get one as well, and Bacon was smart enough to buy one for himself.

Yup, it was good for you be offensive and have a lot of action instead of farming too much. Keeping mobile with Visage (and/or his familiars) is really important to his early-midgame while his familiars are still very powerful. You can also try taking SA a bit earlier since I noticed you took his cloak - I suppose it was better to be more defensive that game.

WD works partnered with anyone who can be offensive in the lane.

Default Re: PDGG Witch Doctor w/ New Visage

Someone was asking me my skill build so I'm dumping it here as well:

Cask-Maledict-Maledict-Cask-Maledict-Death Ward-Maledict-finish up cask-ward 11 and 16-finish up voodoo.

Uh you can get one level of Voodoo at 4 for really defensive situations or if you have to get it on the fly, (like you're fleeing with red hp and you happened to level), otherwise you can get it after 7 at anytime. Adds a LOT to your pushing power once you do.

Item build:
Boots/
Wand/
(Urn -Optional)/
PB/
Ogre Axe (ES drops at this point) -> BKB (kind of wanted Scepter but DP's Silence/Invoker/Sven's undodgeable stun are all problems without ES)/
Dagger (In all seriousness we needed someone to go in and work on Invoker/DP, whoever was there at the base towers - We have Puck but unless you have a workaround/combo WITH Puck then Puck's spells are very useless lategame on his own especially as enemy HP increases)/
Travels/
Ghost Scepter (got my teammates to purchase a few too - intention was to make Sven/PA as ineffective as possible for drawn out fights - iirc Moja finished his BKB around there so I had to be sure)

Maybe that gives you a better idea of how and why I skilled that way/bought items this game.
