    In this game, I was undecided on my next item. The game was already over, but I was largely sitting on the same items for idk, 5-10 minutes before the game ended (TP scroll instead of travels though).

    Even though I won, I still want to know what could've been if the game was closer - maybe I could've lost the game due to my bad item choice.

    The items I were thinking of possibly getting were Shiva's Guard, Mjollnir, or Radiance, although none of them seemed good choices.

    The reason behind Mjollnir and Radiance were so that I could do some extra AOE damage, since I was adequately tanky with Heart + Halberd + Pipe.

    The reason behind Shiva's attack speed would apply to all TB illusions, as well as giving me armour against him, although the enemy didn't have much physical damage anyway. DK was a viable AC carrier so I told him to get it instead of me, which left Shiva's as the only late game armour item.

      I didn't watch the game but I see that no one on your team had a Scythe. Idk, usually when games go that long any pick off is great with forcestaff and what not. But I also see no forcestaff on your team so you guys can push people out of position and pull your allies out of position. Maybe even an Abyssal would of been nice? Just lock someone down and take them out?

      What was the point of sand king going yasha as well?

          Hm, necrobook if pushing hg was a problem?

            Why are you asking what items you should have gotten in a game you won? Obviously you build fine enough that your team succeeded. Show us a lost game so we can ACTUALLY tell you how to improve.

            Also, SK got Yasha for 1 of 2 possible reasons:
            1. Trolling
            2. Movement Speed

              Most definitely movement speed. But I was asking why as in why was he a dumbass. Also wink, why do you always say that if you win there is no room for improvement. I feel even if you won it could of been a fluke from the other team. If two 7k players 1v1'd each other and one of them won and asked for some suggestions, that would be a little weird. but people asking what they needed even in a game they won is completely fine.

                  His teammate already had AC. I'd shoot for Shivas for more personal survival against their massive physical dps as well as for more AOE nuke to handle the numerous images. The item also slows down the dps of all those illusions.

                      shiva's guard would be the best if the game was closer due to the fact that you have already had good damage on ur team, the thing u need to do is being extremly tanky and fight on the front line make spaces for your damage heros.
