General DiscussionBest supp hero in 6.87 to spam

If you can play visage, you will have ez life, Just like me. He is basically a farm independent support who rekt everyone if you can micro well. No farm required. He is pos 5. Anyone saying visage need farm don't know this hero.

farmed visage is just a lot scarier than not so farmed visage xD

ba ne

I'm interested to visage thing dude can you help how to use visage never pick that since I play dota2

Silencer is a good support I believe at the moment!
I been spamming him recently gained like 300 mmr

visage have a great early game, i think is pretty stronger at mid lane. you can kill a lot of middlers really easy (storm shadow fiend brewmsater templar

The only thing i can say is work on your micromanagement. Anyone can press 'w' and kill but only a few can play familiars properly. Personally, i ctrl bind them as the following:
1. Visage
2. All familiars
3. Hero + summon.

Familiars can be used to:
1. Chainstun multiple enemies
2. Setup kill with stun
3. AUTOATTACK
4. Map control
5. Split push

DO NOT let your familiars die. That's it. Maybe i'll write a guide for more details.

Make medalion/crest+meka/vlads,Aghs,whatever you want.
P.S you can carry gem as well.
When your familars are at full dmg+medalion debuff+autoattack+W skill its between 1000-1500 dmg.Visage is surely the most OP/underrated support in dota.

Psstt! Dont spoil it or Volvo will nerf it

He was broken when his birdies need 4 hits to kill.

rubick, max null field at lvl 7 its like a mek for ur team

Visage, Vengeful Spirit, Dazzle. Just look my dotabuff

How the fuck has no one said omniknight. Easiest MMR hero in the game, rarely banned, completely spammable, his lane is ok with another melee gap-closer and after lane he's broken.

Visage if you know how to play him
Techies if you know how to play him (there is a new way to play him, I have tested it out in normal bracket and it is working pretty well, when I get to hs I will test it there and provide info, but still support the fact that he needs a buff, may be less mana and cooldown on his mines but keep the damage and no limit the same)
CM is ba3
and Omniknight/Dazzle

What's the use of the bar thing above visage?

Those are layers of armor. Visage is literally a fucking badass if you know how to play him.

Speaking of which: on my next normal queues I'm going to play some Visage to get some practice in since I want to use him in ranked

Mocha Bloka is very wrong about visage. They are not layers of armor. They are charges of soul assumption.

Charges of soul assumption, basically the more damage heroes (friendly and enemy) take in a radius around you, the more you deal once you release it with w. You only have 5 secs and cooldown is rather short, so don't hesitate to use with 3 or 4 charges.

Omni, bounty and lich are the strongest and easiest supports now.

Venge is deffinetly best support

Same as all heroes- some counter others better. As long as you provide vision with wards and help your carry farm/stay alive.
That's a pro support.
How you do that is down to you.
Pick a support that syncs with your team and against the enemy.
Even Nightstalker can be played as a support

if there's a jungler on enemy team, pick riki.. It feels good man

Top 3 for me is:
1. Omniknight
Best for:
+against right click attacker (LC, Troll, Void, Gyro)
+works well vs WD and Bristleback
+Synergy pretty well with Hard Carries (PA, OD, CK) or unorthodox combo with Pudge, Tuskar, or Centaur
***************
Bad vs:
-Naga Siren. Natural Diffusal builder so she can erase your repel. And her sleep can counter your guardian angel. And oh, his net pierce through spell immunity!
-Heroes with AOE damage

2. Dassle
Best for:
+Can baby sit carry with ease.
+Shallow Grave is a great skill if timed perfectly.
+Can farm effectively
+His ulti has low cd
***********
Bad vs:
-Axe. His culling pierce through your grave.
-Lack of lockdown skills.
-Difficult to use

3. Earthshaker
Best for:
+Offense! His prescence creates a fear among his enemies to not group each other.
+Fissure can catch hero from far away with its long cast range.
+With all his skill not on cd, you can stun a enemy for bout 6sec.
+Can teamwipe a enemy force with a perfect echo slam.
********
Bad vs:
-Enemy with good map awareness
-Silencer. Curse of Silent can make your dagger useless the entire clash if its caught you. And global silence can render you helpless the entire duration.
-You need dagger!
-Slow casting speed. Skills like Invoker Cold Snap or Clockwork Battery Assault can lock you down.

Sorry for the long post, here a potato.
