Raul Wrote:Radiance actually helps his teamfighting potential though, that's the thing. It synergizes really well with his great AoE damage. It's a lot like Radiance on Alchemist. Either you could get 200-300 gold from a gank or you could farm up a lane and the jungle faster than anyone else in the game and get twice the amount so you can get 6 items before their supports get their first bracer.
Oh my god, Spectre set. And new detailed tooltips if you want. I'm excited.
Because the key to bristleback is to not do more damage over a short period, its to survive longer and thus forcing the enemy to deal with you. They cannot focus you, because then the TA on your team will kill them with no resistance, if they dont focus you, then you will dish out a pomegranate ton of aoe damage and since this is physical, an early pipe wont help at all.
The only way to properly deal with bristleback is mana burn and kiting, which is where PL shines. So I dont expect him to be picked in any comp game if pl is in the pool.
