The first skirmish
The first 5 minutes of the game, you've got your hero and you ran mid lane of stormwail. Which hero do you pick to INSURE that you win the FIRST skirmish. None of the others matter, just the initial clash of a handful of creeps, and 2 level 1 heroes with 300 gold worth of items.
My vote goes to eidolon: get a tree up and throw down a wilt... what do you guys think?

Scarab, heal your own units and/or tank and heal yourself.

Re: The first skirmish
Just throwing another one out there:
-a flyer with a Blizzard Skull (or anyone for that matter.)
-Icespinner and Frost Spire.
-AM and Fog.
-DW with his dispel.
I'd also take Spore over Wilt at the first level.

Re: The first skirmish
I'd think Dread Shaman's heal would be better if that's the path you want to go.Dekar wrote:Scarab, heal your own units and/or tank and heal yourself.

Re: The first skirmish
Scarab can/will tank better than Dread Shaman, unless you plan on getting shared pain and his heal which would be kinda hard with one skill point.

Re: The first skirmish
I'm saying his heal is better, not that he could tank really. Honestly though he wouldn't take much worse than Scarab, since he will also be under the effects of his healing, and Scarab doesn't have his armor because you aren't using 2 skill points. =PTehw00tz wrote:Scarab can/will tank better than Dread Shaman, unless you plan on getting shared pain and his heal which would be kinda hard with one skill point.
Perhaps Rune Knight with a Siphon Glyph? Would that match Putrid's Wilting for damage?

Re: The first skirmish
Command a double wave from another outpost to your lane and fear the enemys then with Rue.

Re: The first skirmish
Personally, I'd say almost any hero.
If your playing at equal skill, I'd say Dryad (gale), Lich (Rend Soul), Eido (wither+stump), Grav (HotM), Fugly (Taunting Treant), Scarab (heal), BP (FotD or Inner Fire), Garg (Aber), Rue (Command+Aura), Tact (Banner+Command), Naga (Heal, I don't recommend this though, since Heal isn't her best move, or even a build worthy move IMO).
All those off the top of my head. Obviously some heroes counter better then others (DW with dispel would rape a FotD/Inner Fire BP). But those are probably the best bets. Of those I'd go with Lich, Garg, Dryad or Fugly as top tier then Scarab, Rue and Tact.
