    If someone could help me out with Qop I would really appreciate it...

    I felt I couldn't do much but buy salves and keep tangos ready until RoH until I got some levels and tips on how to pressure besides dagger spam would be great. I just winged the build and want to know what would've been better choices and why. I felt underpowered at the end (i was building eye of skadi last and I would've been 6 slotted). Felt too squishy with unreliable burst.

      Why do you skill lvl1 dagger at level 3? You could've had it at level 1 and then threw it all the time. You really shouldn't be in position to get level 1 blink unless there's a support or two camping mid and you're very scared or something.

      Also you laned against tinker that got his first level of laser at level 10?! Holy shit, is that a 1k game or something?

        Pretty much what nom said
        Also aghanim is quite underwhelming, rest seems fine

          I scaled blink first to disjoint his rockets which worked well, the e was because the wave kept pushing to tower and made it easier to clear the wave, he sat on his hill all lvl1-3 cuz of roaming bh and i had good creep block

            You don't get it, that's still stupid. So you got blink at level 1 in order to dodge his 125 magic damage nuke on a 25 second cooldown, BUT you didn't take your 200 damage nuke/dot on a 16 sec cooldown? See, he got his bottle at minute 7 which means he didn't have a good lane at all (probably due to bounty as well), but you didn't pressure him enough yourself, if he was any good you would've got roasted, also he would've got fucking laser at level 1.

            Like, what you've done is just completely inefficient. A better player would've punished that.

            The whole point of QoP mid is that nobody should be able to trade evenly with that hero at level 1 if you use your abilities right, if you spam your dagger every time it's off cooldown, you should be able to win almost every mid matchup. You completely blew your pre level 3 advantage by not using the abilities right, and you still won the game, but as I said, against competent people you would've got roasted.
