Stats 4 Sven ?

Posted on Thu Nov 12, 2009 8:17 am

its been a while since ive played sven and the devolution aura getting replaced with warcry kinda threw me off i did not find warcry paticularly useful stats worked way better especially with the aoe stun costing 140 mana.now i take stats instead of warcry what r ur thoughts?

Its most likely useful but i also don't find wsrcry too awesome. Early stats used to be cookie cutter and I stil; find it pretty good. If you do well with it, keep doing it..simple as that

VINS HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS?!

@topic
I believe stun + stats was originally the best way to build Sven. Just get one level of Warcry for that extra +12% movement bonus. Helps a lot.

Stats works for me too, i'd not considered the 1 lvl of warcry like vins suggested... eh stats are always handy

I Go with lvl1 bolt lvl2 stats lvl3 bolt lvl4 warcry lvl5 bolt lvl6 gs lvl7 bolt and so on.....

But its still up to you find what works best. If your having mana probs try switching bracer to nulls.

I agree with the one level warcry, since it can boost both your and an ally's movement speed slightly.

i agree with the others from above but lv warcry can also be useful at times

i know im gonna get flamed for this but my skill build is:
1-bolt
2-stats
3-bolt
4-stats
5-bolt
6-stats
7-bolt
8-stats
9-warcry
10-GS
11-GS
12-cleave
13-cleave
14-cleave
15-cleave
then max warcry then stats.

justifications.
you can do without the 12% ms in early game.

GS is effective but not at early game.its true potential is at mid and late game so getting it at lvl 6 isnt the best choice.

1 lvl of battlecry at lvl 9 is to chase wile GS is on and the ms is constant(so no need to max it just for the armor and cd)

cleave will be maxed out in mid game since its just logical.

EDIT: @tokemus
is that you in the new pic?

@Neimi: I have almost the same skill build and I find it very logichal. But I take God's strenght at level 6 sometimes for farming or taking down towers purposes.

That's what I wanted to know to.

@topic

Warcraft is better off at mid game. Its only uses during early is for pushing which you don't want to. That's why stats are so much better and also so you can use storm bolt twice.

@neimi
At least get GS at lvl 8.. It helps sometimes to get an easy kill early-mid.

I don't really use warcry either. It has an animation wherein Sven stops momentarily, and it's a bitch when in a chase. Sure he gets MS increase but he just lost some precious millisecs upon activation.

But I do tend to get it starting lvl 17 or so. The armor increase is great in pubs too, but not so good in organized games.

you can animation cancel which makes it give more than it takes.
and i usualy get GS after i get AoM and boots + stats.
which is usualy at lvl 9/10.
getting GS after getting 1 lvl of warcry is also better.
cause of chasing power

if you plan on early kills with 2 or more targetable stuns, warcry early is worth 2 less stats. e.g. vs+sven. warcry might make a difference. cast while stunned though.
