6 slotted Bristle back, BKB or no bkb in General Discussion
Peekaboo

    I've had this question for ages and i can't really decide for myself.

    using this game as an example;
    http://dotabuff.com/matches/684441252

    sold vguard in lategame for aegis spot.
    I felt that if i got a bkb i'd still be kited around and wouldn't accomplish much anyway.
    however, they had 4 hex's and it seemed to chainhex me down for a significant portion of the game.

    what do you think is a general 6 slotted bristle.

    this game, i had annother heart in my stash, which i interchanged for an aegis in the final fight. = Shivas, blademail, 2 hearts, radiance, boots of travel.

    I was highly considering myjolnier instead of the 2nd heart, but i foudn that i was surviving the chain hex's and if i bought back and travel'd back in.. they'd get shit on :P

    So yeah, does anyone think skadi or bkb is good? or just not bother with bkb etc.

      Now hex does not disable bristleback, so unless you go 1v5 should be fine without bkb. Whatever damage you take, is damage your team does not take.

        Hex is a pretty good item on any hero. I guess if you find that your team lacks disables, you can get that.

        AC is also pretty good as it synergizes well with your quill spray

        herself!

          BKB is situational. If you think that you could survive after all the bursts, then you may as well skip it and get another heart. Your opponents will just die from your 3rd skill.

          My ideal 6 slotted bb = boot of travel, 2 hearts, ac, shiva, radiance , get halberd if there is a right click hero on opponent side
