Linkens Sphere on Faceless Void; Good or Bad?

Linkens Sphere on Faceless Void; Good or Bad?

Posted: Sun Jun 03, 2007 5:36 pm

I've been thinking about this and i was wondering if linkens sphere would be a good idea on faceless. i havent tried it out yet, but i wanna hear your opinions.

Faceless void has a 25% chance to backtrack so i want to throw out the following scenario.

Say you hav... 1100 hp, and your opponent has lvl 3 laguna and maxed out dagon. (just go alogn with it =P). you are faceless and you hav a linkens sphere. lina laguna blades, and it disentangles, lina dagons, its backtracked. you timewalk, chronosphere, and kill lina. pwned. im not sure if this would work, but if it did, linkens on faceless sounds pretty damn good. Opinions?

Or you just backtrack both the spells or atleast 1 and pawn her. Or even better, timewalk chronosphere and pawn before she nukes you.

Linkens is expensive. It delays his power items by a lot. Not recommended. His backtrack can block more spells than linkens in 1 minute. If she can buy dagon 5 i'm sure you can buy MoM, bashers, bla bla bla.

Or you could use plain luck and Time Walk as she Dagons or Laguna Blades you XD No damage XD Linken's Sphere is not recommended on Faceless

If ur purpose is just to avoid nuker, BKB is much better than linken both in ability and cost.

I'll buy refresher instead of Linken's.....

That's how I use Faceless void....

Linken's a waste of money since his backtrack is more effective....

Linken's isn't such a good idea because:
1. Bactrack will block more spells than Linkens, even if they are random.
2. Regen and HP+Mana is not needed. Get HP from lifesteal of Mask of madness, and you won't be using spells that much.

agreed. getting linken's sphere will only slow you down in getting you primary items. getting Black King Bar is better option if almost everyone in the other team are nukers or disablers. Fight against lonely people and you'll be ok. You'll make them leave very fast :P

THE BEST ITEM FOR FACELESS VOID

Posted: Tue Jun 05, 2007 4:20 pm

BATTLE FURY... if u have battle fury, u have lots of money...
after acquiring battle fury, u can go for much higher price like SACRED RELIC, for RADIANCE. if faceless is wearing radiance, inside the chronosphere he can provide a lot of damage to a certain hero...my primary item for faceless is perseverance..

Linken sphere is good almost all heroes but there's the time when to used or not to used. Hp regen is not bad. Stats you've gain is good. Mana regen is quite good also. An item that has an important skill is to block any spell casted of the bearer will be blocked. Its quiet usefull to your hero when you are laning with slayer or lion. A 1250 damage from laguna is blocked,and thats amazing. But what if your laned with naix or troll. Linken will be useless. I think using linkens depends upon situation. Bkb is rather good for a void.
