do they just drink mana pots forever? isnt it worth it to ditch like half the skill gcs and drop maybe 2-4k damage and almost double your mana from 20/17s? you also gain 150 life

you would be at 1500 life and 1100 mana and maybe 13k light damage with this character http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=72926299&f=103
mlds tend to have low max health anyways so the drop in damage doesnt sound that bad

do people just drink infinite mana pots or is the damage just that worth it? or are people just dumb? i dont get it


like, legitimate question here. unless mana pots are the norm, it seems pretty dumb to me

Since chars in mld all have low hp and high damage duels don't take as long, especially for very instant matchups like sorc vs sin or sorc vs bow or anything vs necro

playing too aggressively in svs is a recipe for disaster. you will die very quickly if your opponent is any good and this would be magnified at low hps. svs is a very dynamic matchup so having more flexibility seems way stronger

i can understand like vs amazon and necro where you have to stay on the offensive, but vs sin and sorc especially having low hp and mana seems like an awful idea. are mlders just bad?

Mld is dumb... Life of a Lld w/ the dmg of a hld lol...

as much as i respect your other posts (even though they are often slightly arrogant) this is absolutely untrue

mld on eu (not really played anywhere else anyways) are mostly quite long duels

@op: some do that (on necro) for example

East's gm rules allow me to reduce certain builds like ts wof cs and orb to zero damage. The incentive to play slow grindy builds is missing, where playing 1hitpk builds is totally in.

Want a defensive sorc? Esfb/es blizz work. 49 blizz has to run 1k+ mana anyway just to keep blizz casting

Vita fb still runs like 900 mana

I never use pots on my 49 ww barb and i do just fine. I use rings/ammy with big mana on them though

This ^^

the good players don't get much hit especially on sorc

mana pots aren't used in gm

bad players like avenged123 might stick to lld hdin cause they won't get what's going on in a mld game

Mld is a much easier bracket not sure what you're about
