LICH OWNAGE

oldest style how to play lich nice but any new builds? that build is too old

Nice guild although i would usually sell my mekanisum and buy a referasher at late game so with agahims scepter it would be 1k plus damage for each hero and you could easilt take on 5 heros....

in my game i usualy place a tarasque on all int type. that's all

ummmm nice~~~~~~

How about try mo na mgbili ng level 5 dagon tapos aghanim's scepter.

i have no idea wtf riro talking about, lich has no need of dagon, never get dagon for lich, it hsa completely no use. just follow wut i said, u will be at least 5-0 at early game. don't trust me? i can show u in any match up and time any where. plus, riro, we are talking about english, plz. wtf is ur fking language?

y change your EOS and Buriza for Dagon and aghanism scepter? if u want

Dagon is not useless for Lich. You may need Dagon to kill heroes with high HP after Chain Frost etc.....

zzzzzzzzzz not really all that great try puttting a lil more detail into it and screeen shots to show how you know it works and lich is a really good mid late game charecter not early game because early game ends at about lvl 6-7 hes strongest at mid to late game because his nukes are very strong

wad happen 2 scepter... ur item bulid is a little like a agi hero type... i would get scepter, refresher orb, boots of travel,Guinsoo`s Scythe of Vyse... these 4 i think is the most essential... 2 left would be personal choice...

I have to say this is a fairly good guide. I do like guinso on Lich. And using DR first instead of Nova poses little problems. I do use Nova first before DR. Pretty decent guide compared to the one earlier.

nice english dude...

i like to use lvl 1 frost nova beginning game it might not do much but that 100 dmg adds up when i hit lvl 6 and i always get 1st blood if not a double kill. good strat but like evry1 else has said old skool build i like the arcane ring with him

The strats section was rlly hard to read so u get 5/20

ever try refresher rather than aganim..?much better damage ofcourse 4 big battle..imagine 6 X 580 = 3480 compares with 12 X 440 = 5520......

btw why did you get buritza lol??? i rather get a heart....

Whats really dumb is INT heroes who go 'OOO, I have my dagon, I'll get BURIZA now!' And then I pummel them because they only have 1300hp at lvl25 because they're NOOBIES! INT heroes should always get Skadi or Aghanims or both, especially the weaker ones.

Lolz!! may noypi na nag comment ndi nyo naintindihan noh good strategy but a bit old though

lol man...u should put more detail...and also use proper english grammar...

good detail but put more data on it but it good

lich should only add up frost nova n steps at first till lvl13. tis wil make u GODLIKE!!!

what the problem is you the guys are? isnt it and isnt that? yours english is being bad

try my build using a dagger of escape.. first let your team mate kill all the creeps and after that for sure the enemies will move backward.. then blink on them and cast your chain frost.. and for sure all of them are running in the same way.. and your chain frost will be successful.. hehee..

lich rockz

Compared to the only other guide, this is better. Esp in team games. Regarding merlini, yeah i agree he's really a good player. Merlini also played as a silencer & OD before IIRC, and he also owns with these 2 heroes.

i like lich giving him a linkens because the mana regen and the dark ritual...you can waste youre nova in creeps now get the last hit....

1.linkens
2.scepter
3.treads
4.guinsso
5.skadi
6.heart
...gg!!!san pa u?!
:asa:

Nice guide but its just an old style of playing Lich. Haven't you try changing Buriza with Refresher Orb and Mekansm with Dagon LV 5?

ummm... I'm not sure about the buriza... but this is pretty good

rydyyujguyguygi

Lich is my best hero hehe.....

Well, this guide is far more better than the other one (esp on the skill and item build), although i don't quite get with the buriza (is it really that good on lich, is there any pro using buriza on lich? dunno, but a definite no no for me, i preferred linken/HOT than this one), therefore, im still confused..
And for EoS, you're already "cold", how "cold" do you want ? also, i hardly choose this (than linken / HoT), although its not THAT bad, but its a waste of money IMO, unless if you're having tons of gold perhaps

And for the whole guide, unfortunately this is not a special guide for me ,nothing is new here, and this is probably basically how to play lich and nothing more, and also lack of team strategy (since dota is a team strategy, unless you're in 1vs1). You also don't include his best allies/foe and why, and no explanation on how to use each of his skills effectively

I appreciate the effort though, and for me this isn't as misleading as the other one, but still lack of depth about lich, so i can only give you
6/10

-Regards-

Heard all those comments and I say ur guide gets 7/10.
But most of ur strat is abt taking out heroes by force of level and denying.
Expected something more out of that guide.
Never mind likely items on Lich:
EoS,Sceptre,Refresher,Linkens,Kelen's,
Burizado,Guinsoo,Desolator (imagine why ,Boots of travel,Dagon,Mechansm.)
Always Get sceptre,refresher,
guinsoo,crystalys 4him else u r toast.

good strat but soul booster and eye of skadi is a bit much dont u think

I think you should get dark ritual after frost shield so u have more mana!

you need to actually put some time into your writing, also, you need to realize that crits aren't going to do you shit
this giude is not imformative enough

i prefer stats to armor since i m getting mekansm armor is good in late game.
i agree with the skills build in general.
i prefer maelstrom ->mjollnir for lich mass dps. triger items are nice as well
(necrnomicon, mekansm)
arcane is uselles anyway and mana capacity is always enough
perhaps guinsoo for an immobilize but i think that refresher or scepter are useless.
hero can be dps with good slow and good armor.Why get him as a usual intel hero ? just a hood of defiance and it counters most of the things you mentioned
(i totally disagree with dagon for all heroes anyway, perhaps oblivion)

umm sry but wats a refresher details plz

I once got helm of dominator and blademail while i was playing against mercurial.
Then i had RoH and powerTreads-finished Sceptre and Perseverance and Satanic and
got Linkens also.I owned nicely;final build was:
Satanic-Sceptre-P.Treads-Linken's
-Blademail-Guinsoo

lots of spelling errors and gramatical errors, also a not very informative guide :( 5/10

nice guide...

why did they forget refresher? get it! 2 chain frosts in a row is a kill or double kill, esp. w/nova. max out nova and ritual first, while getting ulti ASAP. items: boots (not treads), scepter, mek, refresher, sheep stick, then whatever you want

Nice way of usin lich.... i personal use him 4 a support or last hit hero killer xP the items really depend on how the game goes.... GOt blink dagger with lich 4 chasing soo fun.. GJ anyway

what a funny noob guide.. 2/10

Donatboy is right...

Aghanim Scepter, linken sphere, PT are my main item build for this guy...adding a refresher orb in the late game will surely spice thing up..

PEACE

Call me a noob, but I like to put a dagon on lich... nova + chain isn't always enough, it's only any good early game tho.

look dude.nice strategy but lich is also early game with bot eos cuirass desolator guinsoo buriza he rocks!

Ehm u missed scepter in ur items list,u didnt put any skill comments and u didnt give any info about using him well.

i don't quite understand the english well...and the items are pretty expensive, lich doesn't farm that fast...

Man just call me old fashioned, but I just solo lane farm till BoT with ring of bas., usualy with first blood at lvl 6. Then grind for sceptor. I really dont see the point in anything else. Because a 7 bounce ( 2 bounce on a single hero), 580 damage chain frost... is just amazing. Personally? I think refreshor is useless. If your a team player, and u plant ur CF's right, the enemies who do survive, will get cleaned up by ur teamates...
P.S Lol I laugh at anyone who gets dagon on lich =X..

the only problem of lich king is, he has very lack of def.. sometimes, u forgot to use the frost armor.

why buriza, try MKB

(--_)

man this sucks

wow it helped a lot

Scepter + Refresher = ownage mid to late game.

buriza?!!

I use mechanism, eye of skadii for lich. But that seems old school. Was hoping for a guide for a newer, more updated build.

@garylamanilao
Mekansm is an oldschool build but it is effective, even until now. And it is called mekansm, not mechanism.
If you want, try Kellen's on him. It works well since it helps Lich to escape, and also helps him to chase and chain.

fking dumb u dark ritual lvl one add for wat no skill is nova then ritual wat if u lvl one gonna first blood?

te item build sux i use te money make one divine own alrdy plus lothar and blink

Lich rocks! I randomed him when we were playing and I got the first 5 kills (weird because I hate INT types). At level 11 i was able to buy a soul booster! But in late game, I was not able to kill any hero. Is it true that INT types at late game are pretty useless???

eye of skadi sucks on lich coz he already slows.

uhm for me if you on a 5on5 gme i usually buy meka depending on how much gold youve made if you can go for all the way straight 3k then buy soul booster or if you can just buy meka then if you have soul booster buy a shoe then go straight for aghanims why? for me the damage it boost on your last skill and hp,mana boost --ROCKZ! then get meka and travel if the game is still on go for refresher


1Boots Of Travel
2Aghanims
3Mekanism
4Guinsoo
5Refresher
6linkens

tO ALL THOSE OUT THERE WHO TINK THAT LEVEL ONE PUMPING DARK RITUAL IS DUMB, HERS A REASON HOW TO PLAY LICH. lEVEL ONE ASK ASK FOR SOLO LANE, MID. tHEN DARK RITUAL A CREEP THAT U SEE SPAWNING AT 1MIN 30 SECS. NOOBS DONT UNDERSTAND THIS ONLY PROS. mID LANE OFTEN HAVE 2 HEROES. IF U DR UR CREEP, THERE IS ONE LESS CREEP FOR THEM, AND MOST OF ALL WHICH NOOBS DONT SEE, THE EXP! SOLO LANE PLUS THEY LACKING IN EXP BY DRing UR OWN CREEPS OUT OF THEIR PRESENCE MAKES U SUPER OVERLEVEL AND ENABLINKG U TO EASIER KILL THEM AS THEY WILL HAVE LVL DIFFUCULTIES. SO TAKE THAT NOOBS WHO TINK LVL DR SUKS!

Int type are usefull too in late game dumb.......

you dont nid aghanims on lich because it is useless in late game.just buy shiva's guard and blink for a better combo

dat was quite info for me!! thanks

aggies + refresher orb = GG... double cast that and people die

buriza?

nice strategy.. thx for the strategy...

PikaChuu....

Hmm, I've been reading about the use of Dagon here. I use ranged attack, frost nova and Dagon to score early kills on single enemy heroes.

I normally save Chainfrost for creep parties that include 2 heroes.

lich without aganim its too bad

ow... buriza for lich? strange...
