Hi all,

Just a quick thought on stacking neutrals + smoke of deceit farming style.
Na'vi pulled it off recently with Pugna using he 1st skill (whatever it's called) and a Bottle, while stacking the hard camp 3/4 times. He hit 6 before anyone else on the map - and as a result killed Anti-Mage very early, and unexpectedly!

So who else could pull this off? I'm talking about heroes you wouldn't normally see jungle, but it turns out can, if you know what you're doing. This is NOT a noob post, so you kinda need to know dota already.. :)

I know the smoke deceit has changed, but with skill cooldowns for these heroes, waiting for the neuts to go back to the camp won't be difficult.

my thoughts -
Undying - think about it.. :D any camp will do, I guess early you could stack the small camp, and take it out to level 2 - while on cd, stack the large camp, and get back to lane at the same time (or pull the lane creeps)
in theory - you could stack both mid camps on the radiant side, using a quelling - at 52/51 seconds hit the top camp, 55 seconds him the below camp (through the trees) and walk right, towards the lane - you should stack both camps, repeat for a 2nd time to get 3x stacks, then use Tombstone to do all the work (though due to the cd, it may need to be level 2 at least, so it last 20 seconds) so a bit of laning first may be needed, ask a friend to do the stacking for you - then you can share the exp.

Storm Spirit using bottle/rune control and after stacks smoke of deceit and Static Remnant start out with the small camp to get some levels, and hold on to the runes or bottle crow..

Zeus?
Keeper of the Light aka KOTL ? with levels of course

so the idea being, that time spent in the neutrals, going to lane for a bit of exp, then going back may sound bad for the first few minutes. but once you take out the stack - BOOM your 1-2 level and 1k gold better off then everyone else. and in theory, again in theory - you could do this every 3-5 minutes?

your thoughts? who else could do this?
