What the item does
01
Passive: Boldness
Grants +20 attack speed if enemy heroes are within a 1200 radius.
How I decide
«Boldness works in the presence of an enemy, not on an empty route.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- The hero can attack while an enemy hero is within the required radius.
- 02 My decision
- I use the enhanced window in a close trade and do not count on it for solo farming.
- 03 What I avoid
- Attribute a permanent attack-speed bonus in every part of the map to it.
When to choose
When tier 1 neutral items become available. I choose from the current options for the hero's next task; this item is not bought with gold.
Which heroes I would try it on
Examples based on mechanics. The role, opponents and team plan determine the final choice.
