Black King Bar

the avatar form is annoying with the decrease but i've found this item VERY effective with Zeus.

Oops. thanks for the correction mrgamesman. Yep, you're correct. It's better to queue the commands that way by holding shift.

but for sand king it different...
Channel, blink then BKB (use shift que for it all to happen simultaneously without any time lose)

This works great for heroes with channeling spells where they need to be in the center of the action. Such as Rylai or Sand King.

Activate BKB, blink in the center of the encounter, then ulti.

i dont like it
because most aoe will still work
and it just gets weaker an weaker

Most ulti's will work under BKB

Chrono still takes effect even you're on avatar mode!

doom bringer can also cast his ulti on a unit in avatar mode

if BKB is activated then void uses chrono, will you be able to move?

It's better against heavy disablers, a few spells still go through BKB (Enigma's ult, Beastmaster's ult, cold attacks).

Activate BKB as you go into the fight and kill the disablers or nukers first.

Thanks, bobbob247 So, I have to use avatar before I'm hit with a spell? I wonder if this better or Linken's sphere for magic reduction/immunity.

Avatar gives magic immunity. The avatar comes from the normal WC3's Mountain King, who's ultimate gave magic immunity as well as other buffs. The effects of avatar is that it increases the model size, and renders the hero immune to magic.

Why do the guides say this item gives some kind of spell immunity? The item specs doesn't say anything like it. And what is avatar ability?

Btw, i'm playing 6.59 map against AI(n00b).

can barathrum use this??

does BKB grant immunity to Chronosphere??

The best combo is Voljin: Voodoo restoration + Maledict + BKB + Ulti

A good combo is omn use his ult and crystal maiden uses black king bar and her ult

useless for tank. because if you are mgic imune they will focus your ally's and that is your job then.
