Hey again all!
So I decided after having looked up some other blogs that I perhaps needed to give the ole girl a bit of 'love'. It took me ages, even though all I basically did was change between two templates!
So, the idea behind this post was to go into more depth about one of my favourite Dota 2 heros!
That hero is Jakiro, he is what is known as a intelligence hero which means that he gains more damage for each point of intelligence he has. You can find a ton of information about him on the Dota 2 Wiki, found here.
I don't mind which lane I am in with Jakiro, though I guess going to the top or bottom lane would be best as his first ability is a path of frost which freezes all units it's path for seconds and can lead to a gib.
I should explain a little about the lanes I guess..
The above is the map that you play on, as you can see there are different paths that you can take to the enemy "base". The main paths are commonly known as lanes, people will generally call out which lane they are heading to! The set up is usually that two will go to the top, two to the bottom and one to the middle(though most people just want to go middle so they can prove how tough they are as a solo artist.
But I digress! Jakiro! I guess what I like most about him is that he's a fricken dragon dude!!! With two heads!!!! and one of them shoots fire and like, the other shoots out ice and stuff!!! How totally amazeballs!!
With regards to leveling up his skills(the explanations of which you can find on the Dota 2 Wiki I linked earlier), I tend to go along with something like the following!
Level 1: Liquid Fire
Level 2: Ice Path
Level 3: Liquid Fire
Level 4: Ice Path
Level 5: Liquid Fire
Level 6: Ice Path
Level 7: Liquid Fire
Level 8: Ice Path
Level 9: Macropyre
Level 10: Dual Breath
Level 11: Macropyre
Level 12: Dual Breath
Level 13: Dual Breath
Level 14: Dual Breath
Level 15: Stats (Intelligence)
Level 16: Macropyre
Level 17: Stats (Intelligence)
All the way to level 25, which is the max you can be, if you're interested! Also on that Wiki page is the recommended item buys, which I usually stick to..
The Liquid Fire ability helps you push the creep and the Ice Path helps set up a hero kill. Later in the game when you have a point or two in Macropyre, it's best to fire it off, then Ice Path as that will freeze the enemies in your Macropyre, then throw out a Dual Breath to add insult to injury!
I have found that this is best used when there are two-five enemy heros all in a line chasing you/someone else. It can easily end up with you getting three plus kills in one fell swoop!
If you would like to know anything else about play-styles or have any suggestions, let me know! You can ask a question on here or @McKnublet on twitter!
For now though, I'm off to check out Aliens: Colonial Marines(when it's finished downloading..... I hate out internet)!
Ciao for now!
