    The rooting ancient dies to spells so its garbage, black dragon is best by far, rock golem is ok, rest are trash.

    Once you just got your radiance if you can snag a creep and run into a fight it's a great way to fuck the enemy teamfight over especially if they are 5 manning in the midgame, just run on top of the supports and once they get to 75% just pop out and bin them. Ancients are also really handy around rosh pit especially on radiant side with the nearby ancient camp as you can just run into the pit and enemy side like a retard. I wouldn't really spend a lot of time in the ancient like people used to though as it slows your farm speed especially considering you want to be using your midas off cd.

    After playing a bit more midas->radi seems like the build 95% of the time. It just farms so quickly and you are much more of a threat in longer teamfights where naix traditionally struggles.

    the better spidey

      Am I crazy or are the +20 movespeed and +20% evasion talents meh?

      30 damage boosts your bursting ability like crazy even with the Radiance build, and +50% Open Wounds is a Satanic that benefits your teammates.

      I never found myself having movespeed issues with Phase + Yasha variant. And any damage the +20% evasion might mitigate is miniscule to the heal that the OW talent gives you in OH SHIT IM ABOUT TO DIE moments. Plus stacking evasion only does so much as it’s a no brainer now to buy MKB against Lifestealer eventually.

        dmg is fine open wounds is a meme due to how common dispels and force/glimmer are lategame

        evasion is good because ls needs physical ehp especially with the rad build, i would bet money it gives him more ehp than the ow talent in like 8/10 teamfights at least

        if u have a taxi the damage is more attractive, if u dont the ms might be better depending on if u have bash and who ur playing against. the "better" talents synergize better with the meta build and are applicable every game

        fx

          Isnt ms and evasion just for making you harder to kill so you can have rage twice or thrice in fights. I mainly have mana problem with ls tho, maybe i should get skadi krappa

              ^^ just tell your supports to buy arcane boots, they are more valuable now anyways.

                  I'm dog tier but I've been absolutely slaying on this hero. He's that strong even a scrub like me can feel like I'm half decent :D So thanks to OP for this post :)

                  Anyway, I've only built radiance once and I lost with it. My default build is rush midas (usually get between 6-8m) then phase ->(possible wand but rare) -> deso -> basher -> AC -> abyssal. Soon as I got a deso I can make mincemeat of any towers and can easily pick people off too. (If vs PA / troll / i'll buy MKB after deso.)

                  If I'm facing duo core / offlane melees EG: (troll / LC / Sven / slar / cent) or some illu hero like TB / PL I would go for a Rad first after PB. But only in this situation. Honestly not a fan of radiance as I feel deso is more of a tempo item and has better impact for it's timing than a radiance if that makes sense.

                  Maybe this is just repeating OP advice but would love to hear some critiques either on my build or on why Radiance may sometimes be better so I can improve my knowledge as I really enjoy this hero.
