What the item does
01
Passive: Ability Upgrade
Upgrades the ultimate, and some abilities, of all heroes.
How I decide
«The freed slot must be worth the gold spent.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- Scepter's effect is already useful, but late-game space for new items is running out.
- 02 My decision
- I assess the benefit of a free slot and the loss of normal stats before turning it into Blessing.
- 03 What I avoid
- Buy a free inventory slot long before I need one.
When I would buy it
In the late game when slots are tight; I compare the price with another needed item.

What to compare it with
