    ^ any tips, guides? will it work? I also want to know the item build guide, and what skill to max first if u go offlane with np. Really want to try this hero offlane

    evy

      He's probably still dead but not as horrible as previous patch
      Max treant first then tp then the wood thingy
      Item build is probably phase/treads>dps/farming item>pike>situational stuffs or rush pike after finishing your boots, idk

        ohhhh so he's not very effective. is it okay if i go pusher type and build necronomicon?

        evy

          Usually people pick heroes that deals with spawnlings if you go NP so probably no
          Shrines to TP into makes your splitpushing harder and riskier than it used to be, but we're playing on a bracket where the meta doesn't exist so just stick to whatever you enjoy playing

          Ogrewatch

            aww okay, so i guess i will not play np then until he gets buffed

            evy

              If you like the hero concept so much go ahead and practice him
              You probably have a 2k main and people there can't punish split pusher for shit

              Ogrewatch

                hahaha okay i'll try it

                  he was dead?

                    Actually he is cancer in offlane if you go dual offlane (some other range like veno, silencer, mirana) just spam sprout and their carry dead (good vs range heroes because they usually dont get quelling) or if you are arteezy u can solo kill carry just do sprout, summon treant from your tree and block enemy while your hero hit it till die and bump the carry rage quit

                    Seven-

                      phase boots into solar crest and drums is a decent build

                      turns you into a rly strong global rcllicker with strong splitpush and teamfight

                      ive seen bulldog build this a lot, but ive also seen him build stuff that i thought were weird but what do i know im not the best np in the world

                      also u dont have to be rtz or bulldog to do the sprout-treant block its actually really easy to do, you just autoattack with np, spawn ur treants using the other half of the tree circle (instead of using the full spawn treant aoe on the whole circle) then block the enemy with ur treants

                      Seven-

                        if ur offlaning with him theoretically you can get a lot of farm while being relatively safe as long as you you use ur treants to scout spots where supports could be hiding then use some of the treants to stack the secret shop camps for you

                        also u have to remember that making your treants stay at lane pushes the lane w/c makes the lane more dangerous for you than it should be, also you give more exp/gold for 22 damage harass before reductions so unless you suddenly can take their tower or u can kill them treants doesnt have much of a reason to stay at lane

                        also why are you playing np are you a masochist

                          Bulldog goes fast phase into drums almost every game, then smth like sb or deso or maelstrom, and min maxing utility with dmg. If he went a utility item like drums next thing has to be dmg to compensate. He goes blink late game for rat, usually builds an orchid mid game after sb or smth. Idk just watch his np games he is by far the best np player. For offlane at least. But u shudnt jungle that hero anyway.

                            Solar crest seems like a gr8 item on him now.
