Soul stealer for sure. Chipper would probably be second just because of such an easy harass, blood hunter is also a fun mid since you can harass while silencing

I do not like soulstealer personally, hes a good hero, but i just hate dying with him. And ya, chipper if you can maitain rune controll is nasty

I never understand how people get owned by chipper mid, any time I ever lane vs him I have the advantage. I see a lot of mid players standing still and trying to last hit, constantly move around and be aware of the rockets, they're fairly easy to dodge as long as you have a good idea of where they're going.

To be fair, I rarely mid with anything other then Soulstealer / Witch Slayer / Pyro / TB. Basically early nukers, which I consider so ridiculously good at lane / rune control. Easily pushing lanes shortly before the 2 min mark is ridiculously easy for SS to do with his nukes (at level 3 I can clear a wave no problem). Harassing is so easy, just time everything right and you can nuke the squishy mid heros down pretty damn fast (I am of course assuming that my team isn't retarded and actually plays correctly and supports with wards / courier).

Given though, that when your comming back from bottling the rune, its easy to get that angle to fire off a couple of rockets.

Also, if you have the LOS advantage, then its easyyyyy

As long as you have decent reaction time, you should be able to get out of the way. However, if you do happen to get hit, you'll take quite a bit of damage which will hurt (although you did just get the rune, so I'd say it's a fair trade as long as you got away alive).

Excatly, its a battle of wits at that point. Ive played chipper mid maybe....a dozen times, and there really hasnt been a time where i have had a problem against another mid, except for thunderbringer, then its a rune whore race

You must not play against decent soulstealerrs.
