Huskar guardian greaves, new meta? in General Discussion
Ogrewatch

    Have you seen D.Bowie's new way of playing huskar? Is guardian greaves reasonable for him? Here is the link on his huskar guide https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uwyIyKHauCw

      Thats bs, you can rush bkb and rape the enemies if you have a dazzle/omni/oracle in your team...guardian is a waste of gold imo

        omg this guy is getting more and more autistic by the nanosecond

        Riguma Borusu

          why would a hero that thrives on value items buy a 5k+ gold item that solves none of his problems

          more so for 700 gold more you can have a fucking satanic and for a bit more you can have an AC

          why the fuck would anyone buy freaking greaves

            I quit looking at his videos a while ago when i found out it was all shit

            H^

              That D.Bowie's guy is in the 2k bracket, he's playing normal skill games, anything on any hero can be considered good if we're talking about 2k mmr games although greaves on huskar is the most retarded thing I've ever heard.

              H^

                Lul then you have retards like this guy

                It sounds 'reasonable' as if he actually has experience with greaves on huskar and done it before but then he says he isn't a huskar player lmfao.

                  The level of retardness I read in this thread is slowly but surely killing me

                  evy

                    no

                    Fee Too Pee

                      at paper , its good. its also can purge + 15 armor at low health

                      but you know whats better?
                      when ur offlaner get that instead at 20ish minute mark

                      what guardian greave give to huskar is no doubt , very good thou. regardless huskar or teammates get it

                          Our 3k weaboo player seems like he has experience in the 4k bracket.

                            Yes , 3500 player

                              I see the reasoning behind it, the under 20% bonus armor and regen are amazing, it gives Huskar a dispel and heal, and burning spears/berserker's blood gives you your attack speed and damage. But it's a 5300+ gold item with a terrible build-up for Huksar. The arcane boots portion is useless, the recipe is incredibly expensive, and while you're trying to finish the item, you don't have anything that helps you farm faster or get kills.

                              I wouldn't get it, all it provides is armor, and more survivability at low health. But the build-up and cost is so terrible. Just seems like another dumb gimmick build like that other Youtuber who buys echo sabre on everything.

                                For comparison, a wand + morbid mask + armlet + treads costs less than greaves does.

                                  You can go treads straight into halberd and it would be better than this. +15 armor is going to do jack shit against a troll or PA when you are low whereas halberd is a game changer

                                    I would rate it higher than armlet tbh. And you can't dispel teammates silence or other stuff with greaves, just yourself. Ive actually gone value grieves for that purpose on not standard mek heroes

                                      "rate it higher than armlet"

                                      do you actually serious benao? LMAO

                                          Also what the fuck was that match in the video? Look after the 4:40 mark, and that Huskar is running around with greaves + brown boots.

                                          H^

                                            Welcome in normal skill bracket where people think you need to buy 2 boots because you have 2 feet.

                                              Its not even a new thing. People were trying this out when guardian greaves first got released. It was kinda okay then because Huskar had far more magic resistance than he does now. But even then people realised it wasn't really viable.

                                                i though d2bowie was like 6k

                                                  There are no high skilled players with a big youtube channel making guides etc, most of those people are below 4ks that think that they know what they're talking about.

                                                  The only guy I know is slahser but he hasn't uploaded anything in a while.

                                                      Bowie WAS 5k last year

                                                      Totentanz to The King: M ...

                                                        The extra regen and 15 armor on low HP is insanely good on Huskar, but just tell a teammate to buy it for you, that portion is part of the aura I believe.

                                                          also H^ is 3500

                                                              It sounds good on paper, but I agree, it's too expensive for what it gives, and what alternatives could give for equal or less that amount. I saw the video of Bowie talking about this, but I think he could pull it off because it wasn't really high level bracket. Don't know his MMR but I'm fairly certain it wasn't a 5k+ game.

If the enemy is heavy on physical damage, after core items it's usually more reasonable to purchase evasion, HP and then armor. Solar Crest, Halberd and Butterfly are way more cost effective than Greaves.
