I don't think WK can be consistently run as a hard carry because there are so many heroes that can do his job better. I think, as a semi-carry, he is very strong. Blink Dagger into Blademail into Radiance forces people to focus you, and they take a lot of damage as a result. Add Refresher Orb or an Aegis of the Immortal and they'll have to take all that damage all over again. In the end, your team comes out ahead unless they've counterpicked you hard with mana-burners.

Mjollnir is not that good against illusion heroes.

Same problem as Radiance, it's non scaling damage. Illusions scale, while your item doesn't. Therefore, it's pretty bad in late game. While BF is good at any stage.

Example, if you have 300 attack damage, Bfury = 100 AOE pure damage each hit. Mjollnir = 25% chance to deal 160 magic damage = 40 magic damage in average, make that 30 damage with reductions.


The reason why Mjollnir is so good on WK is that he hits hard yet is slow. So attack speed is a godsend for him. That and AC makes him a right click beast. Kinda like Tiny.

Yeah forgot about BKB too. My bad. But yes; Blink Dagger is life, Blink Dagger is love.

So he's kinda like Abbadon. They want to ignore you, but you force them not to with items like Skull Basher, Radiance, Assault Curi***, and Mjollnir.

He is also very tanky, 1 or so defensive item (BKB, Skadi, etc.) will do.

He is slow, therefore Blink Dagger is great on him.

This is what I'm getting so far.

It's about the shield, not the lighnings. If you get [{mjollnir]] early, Phantom Lancer will just kill his own team.

Except that Diffusal Blade dispels it, and well it's core on PL. Seriously, meh.
It's not bad, but it doesn't accomplish much either.

If we just said no, you might think it was because of something other than the Creep Exterminator 5000 8{3
