We have all come a long way. From once hating this guy to now loving it. What can we say, he is a SICK hero.

 

Skill build- w,q,q,e,q,r,q,e,e,w,r,e,w,w,y,r,y,y

 

Item build- I dont know any items but like i usually go for the recommended build as it is Awesome! but i add a khali and a skadi for the damage hp and slow to it.

 

pulse-foe-khali-lethal-skadi-spell buffer-swordbreaker

 

not including the smaller money items like goggles as that should not need mentioning

To all the ladies in the place with style and grace.

Y'all know how I play is just divine.

Biatch be mad question askin', ass passin', music blastin', but I just can't quit

Relax and take notes, while I take tokes of the marijuana smoke

Because one of these honies Skydie gotta creep with

So I just want to suggest a different penthos build... Now don't chew me out but he is not only dps he is Int his Q does 4 seconds of SD (spell dmg) and starts at +15% int. and the W is 3 seconds SD and starts at + 20 int. So before you hang me I go treasure then from here I make a choice tanky first or dmg. for dmg I like lightning rod for speed and int. I then get SHM into Atom smasher, Twin Paradox Isolator, FOE, Nitrogen Retrofit, and at this point finish Yamato and should be GG.

 

For talents I go 3/2/1 WD/WS/SD/HP/SR/swiftness.

I start with W first to get around faster. so its W,Q,E, for first 3 levels then max Q

 

Let me know what you think!

Hmm, so you'd finish out with Cerebro, Yamato, Atom, FoE, Nitrogen, SHM. Cerebro and Yamato, along with natural Agi progression, give you your attack speed (necessary for Penthos to build up orbs), massive slowing potential, and, while Cerebro's energy active is useless to you, you can easily keep your teammates recharged. I'm going to shamelessly nab this build and test it out. You expounded on going lightning first for damage, what if you need to start tanky, how would you approach the build if, say, you're the tank of your team?

That's not very good build. Basically u have only some spell damage late game and quite low weapon speed (especially if enemies has chilling). U can't do enough damage to kill fast enough and survive during this time. Spell damage coming from Atom and Cerebro isn't as much noticeable late game as mid game. So your effectiveness basically failing off approaching late game. U have to win as fast as possible with that build, before enemies carries get fat.

 

I would suggest more dps oriented build with some basic tankyness:

- SHM

- FoE

- Scythe Sliptide

- Time Splitter

- Galactic Defender

- situational (more dps - Contamination Shard or Pyre, more speed - Hand of Mengsk or Phantom Menace, more tanky - DST or Shadowmourne) or Parallax if too much CC, but then u should get this item much faster

So I don't finish Cerbro there is no need for penthos but if I have to be the tank I add in DST for HP regen. For the most part if you play with people that need you to do more dmg I like FOE and Containment shard for HP and dmg. I do agree with spooky you can fall off late game but you really should never have a problem with that because most ppl don't ever defend them selfs from Int penthos becuse the normal build is just dps so you are their Kryptonite Im not sayng th DPS version is wrong by any means he needs weapon speed to do any real dmg. Just trying to show other options for the heros I know well.

 

I also must say this is not a pro tip ^

I do like pyre for tanky comp.
