What items physically kill you to be seen built/rushed

Bfury PA, personally. I believe that PA is more of a early impact core rather than a late-game one.

There are much better late-game heroes than PA.

Vladmir's Offering on every hero ever. When I a very early Vlads on anyone, I cry. Maybe on a Vlads Maelstrom AM but I see it on Lina and Venge. wtf.

Dude, Vlad's is an amazing item.

The myth that it's only good on melee heroes is false, because that's just the lifesteal. You get Vlad's for the damage and armour.

Actually item-independent heroes like Venge, KOTL, Phoenix etc are the GOOD heroes to build Vlads on. It's such a horrible item on carries, since it hogs a precious, precious item slot for something you'll just have to sell. Lone Druid with his 12 slots is the only carry on which I'd ever build a Vlads...even on Anti-Mage I'm not a fan of wasting 2K gold and a slot for a regen item that's really not worth it if you go bfury (just buy a few salves).

And Vlads is a good item, it gives 5 armor and +15% damage to your whole team.

It would be Sand King building Aghanim's Scepter.. Haven't they realized that Veil of Discord deal more damage for Sand King's Epicenter, plus allies magic skill will be amplified and cheaper by almost 50%.

Excuse me... What?!

Wut? Thread is about bad builds not core items xD

fires.of.hell is either trolling or he is talking about trends he personally hates for no reason and forgot Mask of Madness on Juggernaut xD

Oh ****, Apology for that. It wasn't me who posted that reply 'twas my younger brother who later realized he didn't understand the thread :(. Really, Apology for that and I ain't trolling.

So there is a third option: younger brothers that love dota too :D
