Doesn't Malefic Gun give movement speed boost for 1 second when you attack? I think Windtalker will be heavily out shadowed, just like Bloodlust Axe after the new War Axe was introduced.
God Layla's basic attack is bigger than Yve's Ult, and rival's Pharsa's ult rangle lmao, having 8 units of basic attack from her usual 7, along with that movement boost, she'll be a monster in the LG
@@Memax-m5o advance server updated buddy it only nerf the winter crown the frozen button. Did ya understand why am I writing this as of advance server updated
If anything i learn for dota2 is you dont need to improve a hero's strength, but fix their weakness. Layla already have the longest range, all she need is survivability and damage, the slot would be more useful for other items
Tell me 1 thing would u sacrifice WON for malefic gun? In team battle ? Heros who can dive back line can easily kill those heros with no issue They r gonna love it when mm has no won
Tbh its more like a love-item for melee atk spd heroes that usually struggle trying to chase an enemy thats kiting them, so the extra mov spd and range does help them catch up to them more easily, specifically argus, freya and others. For marksmen, its not that big of a deal as they’re alrdy ranged and dont usually struggle hitting enemies unless its for specific purpose like repositioning and whatnot
@@masterjay4277 15% isn't much for Melee heroes ngl and the only hero that can abuse it is just Layla, Wanwan and Irithel They'd probably change the movement speed boost tho cuz Irithel would be way too fast
but the problem is the additional range is not fixed amount but percentage so those heroes with wide basic attack range will benefit more and those melee with small range will have unnoticeable increase on range
i think the movement bonus will be good for wanwan because she will be able to move a little faster while using her ult ..its like having a shoe without buying it right??
We should probably stay away from using this on melee heroes. Increasing their small basic attack range by 15% won't do much. Meanwhile marksmen like Layla who already have massive basic attack ranges get a very big boost from it.
she does more damage with it too since her attack damage scales with how far she hits enemies from, why is nobody mentioning that? layla already has bonkers damage, now she will be nasty if fed
I think this item is also good for argus. I mean he relies on attack speed and critical damage for his passive. Even its ability is useful for argus to boost his basic attack range for a while to chase down enemies for a bit. Also the items passive works well for argus for a bit more movement speed to chase down enemies
@@rawrn. you know that you can just combine this item with GDS right? Haasclaw-Berserk-GDS-Malefic-boots for early but you can switch it to windtalker on lategame-wind of nature or any flex item you want to try--THIS ITEM IS GREAT FOR IRITHEL!
Hanabi really benefits of this item. 1st Skill: +20 movement speed Malefic Gun: +15 Movement Speed Quantum Charge: +30 Movement Speed No dash skill, no problem! 😊
I am one of those Mythic Honor players right now who always ban Moscov since Epic 2. Now that an indirect buff to him is here, I will continue banning him, you should too.
So many smurfs with matches fewer than 500 are now playing in Legend ranks. But these players, once matched with Legend rank players with full emblems, are mostly going to lose. This ruins the gameplay for old accounts playing alongside them. It is time for Moonton to deal with these smurf accounts. Let us ask Moonton to implement a match and emblem quota to play in rank matches when in Legend ranks or higher. This will create a better gameplay experience for everyone.
I play Aulus a lot, and Malefic Gun has benefited me the "fun" i'm having for a while. This is incredibly flexible as i am able to mix up builds with this new item.
Claude is definitely nice with this. Even if it doesn't extend ultimate range, it makes him rather scary when poking tanks from safer distance. That lifesteal is also nice, since dhs+won doesn't give enough against blade armor+dominance combo.
Hell nah bruh as a claud main im a stick with won or rose gold bruh claud doesnt need range or mobility he needs survivality Bruh claud has low lifesteal ratio not like other heros like moskov If want lifesteal then go with won or rose gold they give survivality n lifesteal
@@frost083 I'm thinking of swapping out windtalker when the games goes very late that you swapped boots. As I said, DHS+WoN doesn't give enough lifesteal when you poke the tank with domi+blade. Definitely won't buy it until I can swap out boots, other attack items are just better on Claude
Some of them can be safe from the distance in teamfights for now but... Sneaky and cunning Assassin Heroes is still the biggest risk despite having a longer range with Layla's Malefic Gun item so be more careful where you are going to position for teamfights and make sure that the Assassin is far away from them or make them dead first so you and your team can safely clean them with no problems.
I think Melissa can work well with this item since she was nerfed that you need to hit anything to trigger her 2nd skill so that means she doesn't have to move closer to the enemy I KNOW YOU CAN JUST CLICK THE ATTACK MINION BUTTON but it won't deal the double damage so you can just attack the enemy with this new item
its kinda stupid really for bruno, cause his passive says "Bruno gains 2% extra Crit Chance each time he deals damage with his skills (up to 10 stacks)" it literally says damage with his skills so even if his enhanced basic attack is a basic attack it still counts as a "skill" cause of how his passive works
On paper it's so good on Freya since she basically needs to hug the enemy to attack and they can easily just run away from her. The added range and movement speed will help her chase the enemies
Since the attack range bonus is percentage (15%) it wouldn't fit best in short attack range hero. I supposed it'll fit better with middle range heroes (fighter) like Freya or Aulus.
I was like dang Layla what have you been doing in this past updates?!! Like are you the new Lesley that can hit the enemy within 10000km away from you?
All im saying Great dragon spear ( +30% movement speed when using ultimate) + quantum and malefic gun = 75% movement speed. Which you can use for crit build for: Irithel, Clint, Miya and Moscov maybe. (Zilong can also go crazy with this) But you tell me im not in advance server so im not sure.
You’re wrong about kimmy, while most of her damage comes from skill 1 - it’s 1) not a huge dps increase on single targets and 2) runs out quick. You need to kite with basic attacks to recharge her energy because her dash has a 15 second cooldown and hr ultimate doesn’t recharge energy
Elgin, you forgot that Wanwan can benefit from Zeal by using Ult, the mv spd boost is nice for her ult, or am i not understanding her nerfed ult works?
How about clint? Clint passive what makes him special and op, his long range attack is the only thing that makes him strong, but then giving other marksmens a way to enhcance their range is unfair for him since his not relying too much on his basic attack but to his passive
Yeah as an sidenote I think Argus could benefit from this one but that's my one cent. Anyways with this time technically you don't need boots anymore for the late game? As long as you attack and you like build windtalker then it's a nice sub to boots at that point on late game assuming you can properly reposition and attack.
This is rather troublsome For instant, your opponent add the item Haas Claw and Hunter Strike with Malefic Gun and you'll get annoyed and Frustrated at the same time
Apparently, after the introduction of this item, I will definitely ban Leila, although it's funny, because her range in a late game with critics hurts if you play for a thin character and for an insufficiently mobile fat tank / fighter
I still think Malefic Gun improves WanWan the least. Both Unique Passives does not 100% benefit WanWan. Zeal is obvious. Malefic Energy is only partially effective because keeping at maximum range is NOT always an advantage when the intent is to hit all weaknesses as quickly as possible. The mm that benefits Malefic Gun the most is Irithel, Karrie, and Layla. I hope WanWan users don't misunderstand this video to their detriment.
Well it does increases his range of basic attack but its very little because its only by 15%. Freya or aulus might benifts this item trough because their basic attack range is huge when using ulti
Now, make layla and beatrix exchange each other's gun, layla's gun with beatrix sniper Cuz, at this point layla's gun is having a range like a actual sniper
hmmmm would Malefic Gun work on Popol and Kupa? Would that work on Popol and Kupa since Elgin didn't put Popol and Kupa on the bad list for using Malefic Gun so would this be good for Popol and Kupa?
