How do you counter that lame legionnaire that stands between T2 and T3 towers, getting your entire creep wave on the short lane?
Regardless of hero picks, so don't say "just counter him with so and so hero", please.

It's called autoattacking

which triggers his blades more, and the oodles of hp he has compared to others, and especially when he gets his tube, which should be pretty early, he's quite hard to kill, as well as focus on having your tower not taken down too fast is quite a bit maddening

assuming you have at least one ranged hero in your lane it shouldn't be a problem at all
it's usually a free kill when retards try to do it

it's completely different if they're doing something like nymph accursed legionnaire though
then you have to figure out a better plan

but otherwise, lone legionnaire retard in lane = free first blood

if you don't have the heroes that can kill him (ranged hero with a slow), then you're boned and should try to get last hits by the tower

if you cant handle him with your 2 lane heroes call mid for a fast gank+most times fb, after this he won't do it again or if he does you can handle him alone

i don't think most mid players would do this unless you can assure them they'll get the last hit, and even then they probably won't do it

So ranged with slow, kk, thanks. I mean so far it's usually been 3 vs him, where mid came to gank him, but apart from that I didn't know a strat that could handle it without disturbing other lanes. Thanks.

plague rider or arachna are the best counters to that strat, i think plague is a bit better since he's faster and the nuke animation is slightly faster than arach's web, silho is probably good too

if you also have a melee in lane, he shouldn't get in melee range till all the creeps die

polly wolly
