this guy mega idiot. 625 might seem like alot, but since its magic it gets reduced by armor and since it takes so long it also gets countered by HP regen. Also, it costs mana and axe has a shitty mana pool early-mid game so you might give up using call / blade for a hunger, which will end up doing like 300 in the long run when everything is factored in.

Since it is magic it gets reduced by armor? The fuck are you smoking, and where can I get it. Magic damage is resisted by hero spell resistance (25% - http://forums.dota-allstars.com/index.php?showtopic=146618 ). According to your logic, if it is magic damage, then its not worth getting? Lets just get stats instead of any spell thats not pure damage. Brilliant.

All the sudden DoTs = fail spell? By your logic I assume shadow word is not worth getting over stats as well? I'd love to see your pro Stats/Stats lock build. Even if it is over 25 seconds, thats still only 100 or less damage taken away.

Let me break it down for you, so your ignorant mind may be able to comprehend.

4 levels of stats = 152 hp / 136 mp / 8% as, and negligible armor/hp regen.

Level 4 Hunger = 25 damage over 25 seconds = 625 damage. Also cancels use of Dagger and Bottle, two of the most common items.

So four levels of stats, which yield barely enough MP to cast one of axes spells, and a difference in life / damage compared to hunger of 473 (in favor of hunger if your not following, which i assume you arent), is somehow better then hunger?

gg no re, get raped.

ahh...wow today was a bad day to play on Dota..i dunno why but i kept fucking up so much and ended up feeding them rather then kicking ass.

Im trying really hard to get pro with axe but i guess i just rush in without thinking and end up getting fucked

Pretty sure he meant Whirlwind (spinning) when he said WW.

lol if uve played d2 or WoW then ull def know what WW means >_>

This.

Hunger is only useful in limited situations, where a hero is running away and can't lasthit a creep. Call is always useful as a disable/attack.

tl;dr

if you're trying seriously still trying to defend hunger on axe, i think its best that we go our seperate ways now.

no
hard feelings, and enjoy your public games.

vouch. Forthemathematics fails bigtime

i normally max call + hunger, 1 pt in helix and max helix later.

they don't go anywhere near you if you don't have anything in hunger and u are left useless b/c u generally have no boots until u go shoppin
