How I decide
«Raindrops provide a limited number of responses to eligible hits.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- Significant magical damage arrives regularly in lane.
- 02 My decision
- I check the remaining charges and use the time gained to find a safer position.
- 03 What I avoid
- Remain under repeated magic when no charges remain.
When I would buy it
In lane and during early rotations against magic damage pressure.
Which heroes I would try it on
Examples based on mechanics. The role, opponents and team plan determine the final choice.
What to compare it with
Similar purposes do not make items interchangeable. I compare effect, price and timing.
