Sorry but BKB and BOTs are ******ed situationals.No hate on your guide but usually the chinese who were the best morphlings went for BKB after Shotgun not to mention that BoTs becomes a must in any late game scenario .
Linken should be the situational choice because of superior skills .

Fair point, but in my opinion is always a situational item, because there are some games where you won't need to buy one. Which is why it depends on the situation hence, situational item. I agree with and I have added them into core for late game. But still, can be a total waste, for example if you only are playing against people who get through e.g. etc.

I generally like to save up and get the first over because it provides much more for . Agility > Physical Immunity. Hope this helps!

But anyway guys. THIS BUILD NO LONGER WORKS AS IT USED TO, Morphling HAS BEEN PATCHED AND YOU CAN'T COMBO AS EFFECTIVELY AS BEFORE. It still works to an extent, but not as well. It's better to rush Linkens Sphere now... The golden days are over

Omg i was just gonna test the build out. What got patched? :0

Just wondering, but do you really need the bottle pick up for shotgun morphling. Also, for ethereal blade, do you buy eagle song or ghost scepter first?

s are better for regen over time, like when against constand harrassers. BUT! A salve is also good if you get at red HP (like 100), since if you only have s you're, well, ****ed up. Also, by the time your regen runs out, you should have your or , and you will be able to bottle-crow for regen. Also, as DirtGrub said, youre really good defended.

Very well defended. But the reason that people get agi/str gain on morph is so he can survive early. He is very slow and very squishy and his escape mechanism until level six is not the best. A nightstalker or qop would laugh at it and then kill you. Salve gives quick regen for a possible incoming gank or quick regen during a juke. I assume that tangoes work for you, but i take runs at the enemy carry quite early in the game and a salve could save your life. But again, very well defended.

As much as I agree with what you are saying, I highly doubt you are going to get ganked before you reach level two. If what you said comes to pass and a comes to gank me, I can just outta there and turn on Morph Strength Gain. Considering you'll want to always be in the safe lane, you can just into the trees and Morph to victory. But I see the point you are making.

Okay, so looking at the maths of it a heals you for 400 over 10 seconds, but this can be interrupted. And a heals for 115 over 16 seconds, and you get a total of three s for 90 gold, and one for 100 gold.

So; a heals 400

and a heals 345

so I guess, you could say a a and a is better than two s but the s give more lane staying power than the . Say for example you got hit for 150 damage from an 's you can't salve up because it is a waste of your ONE AND ONLY , so you would use you . Assuming you bought one stack of s and a that is you back up to almost full health with two s and one .

Lets say the same thing happens twice more, or you just take some harass, you burn through your s and only have your left. This means that you have 400 points of interruptable regen left. Say for instance you take 300 points of damage, you won't use your because it is the only regen you have left. So you sit there almost thinking about using your salve but you don't. But if you had the extra s you use two and you're fine again. By the time you have gone through 6 's you should be at level 6 already. Considering you will have had a support there the entire time baby sitting you. By then you can just replicate your laning partner, run back to base and jump back to the lane if you really need to.

This is why two s are better than a and a FOR MY BUILD :)

I love the shotgun morphling build! Your able to do so much damage in short time!
Very nicely written Garzvaar, you have done a good job and explained this build well!

Nicely written, good context, easy reading, +1!

Thanks! My First guide so I wasn't expecting this kind of response, more so of flaming than commendation :)

Quoted:

Plz consider taking MORPH AGILITY GAIN at lvl1, since you'll have more hp or damage for last hits. Also, a + > 2 s
