In other words, The Hotkey assassin


Out of the feeling of no where else to go, I concluded that the true intended way to play clinkz resulted in getting morbid mask first...

The concept of clinkz as an assassin didn't make sense to me because he is more of a glass cannon then a glass machine gun...

Now, I believe this has finally lead me to realize what the real and true way to actually play clinkz is for this assassin role that everyone swears by, and it is at the other end of the spectrum for what I thought was right.

He's not a skill assasin, but rather an item assassin, even though the items may work somewhat well in cooperation with his skills.

So the true way to get some kind of progressive effectiveness out of clinkz is through offensive tool/damaging items and how those things work together... and in turn, work together for team ganking

That item list consists of the following....

-Force Staff
-Urn
-Medallion
-Eul's
-Dagon
-Orchid

At first thought, you may say to yourself that the first 3 items are not that effective alone... but together? Together, now they have some potential....

Imagine a Clinkz who rushed Force Staff, Urn, and Medallion right off the bat...

Then went invisible and used these items in combination, COMPLETELY surprising the opponent with an item combo assasination...

Imagine quickly casting Force staff, urn, and medallion on the enemy right out of invisibility.

That... that is how you can see the true strength of clinkz with out having to wait 20 minutes for his orchid.


Now, the big question here is, now that I know this is his intended way to be played...


"Do I really like how clinkz is essentially pushed in to these items?"

Perhaps not, and that is why I should choose a different hero apparently.

Good day.

But now... now the significance of skeleton walk makes sense... and what it is capable of...

That's all... done, mouth zipped, locked, key thrown in the trash.

And apparently that is why he has his knack for farming.



I just want to say that this all comes back to the basics of philosophy...

And the discovery of the obvious...

"The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. (One is unable to notice something - because it is always before one's eyes). The real foundations of his enquiry do not strike a man at all. Unless THAT fact has at some time struck him. And this means: we fail to be struck by what, once seen, is most striking and most powerful." (Ludwig Wittgenstein)

By making these threads you are insane.Cant beleive nobody thought of this before.... Also if you really want to promote a new way of playing clinkz then you should make a guide on-site.
