Pudge Itemizing first 20 minutes! in General Discussion
Snu

    I am wondering what the optimal builds are. I have checked DB Guides and it seems that Pudge can be played MANY different ways.
    For the most part, I roam and my build looks like this.

    Smoke, Wind Lance, Clarities, Tangos - starting.
    Tranq, Soul Ring, Wand, Blink

    whatever else is needed.

    I am wondering if items like Aether Lense, Urn, and Bottle are good pre-20 minute items to get. Personally, I skip Aether Lense in favor of a force staff, and go Soul Ring instead of Urn.
    Any more experienced (blue Stars) who have better early game item staples to give?

        From what ive seen its usually aether after sr or urn or something but idk for sure. Why not aether and force? Aether will increase force range too i think.

              i always make hood+vanguard first, then arcane boots, lens, blink, agham :)
              but i still play pudge mid, 61% wr, but still you might not listen to me as im living in dota 1 :D

                ^pudge mid works if ur the support LUL
                Problem is every hero in dota trades better than pudge. Also vang sounds bad unless u want crimson (eg brood or pl)

                  Watch qupe stream hes the public pudge Player. If u get many kills get urn, if not skip and and stick to your build. But in any case u need tranquiles for the speed.

                      With +2 mana regen talent you can skip Soul Ring, but surprisingly the guides shows a lot of them going for 8 Str and uses Soul Ring
                      Maybe they deny themselves for respawns so mana is not the issue
                      also I found this Pudge with lvl 9 talent

                      Get Tranquil (also Magic Wand and Wind Lace)
                      Aether and/or Blink
                      I think it's pretty standard, I always start to doubt someone if they bought any items other than these

                        Is the trick?
                        Low HP
                        Uses Soul Ring with Rot toggled on
                        90% chance of deny
