I haven't managed to test this, but if Bloodstone activates its heal upon pseudo-deaths (like Reincarnation or Aegis of the Immortal then you could theoretically use the active to become a walking super- Mekansm.

I still wouldn't recommend building Bloodstone on Skeleton King though.

I prefer the term T.W.D (Trolling with Deny). It's great against players who don't know about the new effect. Had me laughing so hard after juking a guy just for the fun of it.

Anyway, yes, mek with Blood is actually pretty good in terms of teamfight control (Necrolyte, anyone?) and if you can rush quickly back there it would be great. The biggest thing is still the deny though.

I can see it useful only to deny yourself so the enemy doesn't get a kill.. if you also heal teammates while doing so, even better.

An interesting change.

I do know that it is mostly about the denies, but this is theory crafting after all.

Even if it doesn't work with Aegis of the Immortal (which I am not sure of) and of course it's super super super luxury (i.e. will never get sizable charges) on Skeleton King then really any hero who has enough charges to respawn instantly could sacrifice themselves for their team.

P.S. I got this idea after, before the patch hit DotA 2, seeing Blitz get 40+ Bloodstone charges and wondering into the chat how he could abuse the new active with those. Overwhelming result was "walking fountain" "who needs aegis" "super mek".

That said, it also works well with the respawn time and the gold loss reduction; you could save your team and the only thing it could potentially affect is your K/D, not taking any gold or time from you.
