i wanna play TA in the safelane in General Discussion
LLENN

    and farm her like a traditional carry, probably going blink->deso->etc. thoughts? will my team want my head? does TA really need the early levels that badly? been playing this game 4e and wanna do something new that works

      yes she does unless u got something that can't contest u at all

      mid is best cuz 1v1 is ta's strongest point even in safelane u will need bottle to sustain mana and runing for the runes is waste of farm

        ta safe lane is decent but blink first item is god awful

        LLENN

          the blink first would simply be to access more farm faster. it would be a more worthwhile purchase than midas imo because after 10 mins i could blink from my safelane to stack camps faster. with psi blade splash she can clear the stacks faster than some carries. blink as a first item is never awful as long as you have a plan to bridge to the next item :)

            Blink is a terrible farming item. Yasha, MoM, Midas are all better and also give you something else.

            jo~

              no its shit because with new patch u can farm any unit so the limiting factor for your farm during the early phase its going to be your damage 100%

                  safe lane TA against my old captain (PL) and most of his current team

                  the main strength of safe lane TA is lane dominance, ability to constantly pressure the lane while allowing supports to rotate/farm the jungle

                  its like putting traditional mid lane heroes in the safe like Razor, Clinkz, etc because they can easily win most 1v1 matchup against traditional offlanes and free up supports to win the other lanes

                  however you need to win the game early or have a stronger late game hero mid like Naga, Morph etc since TA doesn't scale so strongly as the game goes past six-slotted realm against heroes that she can't reliably burst down.

                    I played it twice recently, both times going PT --> Aquila --> Yasha --> either HotD/MoM
                    MoM when I had omni in to repel me
                    and HotD to stack ancients + more sustain
                    either way the safelane build can vary much more than the solo mid phase drums yasha
