It'd be cool to see the editor add these chapters into the video. It would be amazing
Dota 2 valve should pay bsj for this effort. This really encourages lower mmr players to improve and play more dota.
He definitely inspired me to get through the 100 hours ranked slog, now I am watching this to be inspired to fight in the Guardian 1 trenches, lol
Because he teaches to play better not to spend more on cosmetics đđ
analyst, caster, weatherman. already paid lol
bananashitstainjamma inspired me to give him 100$ for coaching session only to tell me im bad
@@tvojamamaomg do you play sniper offlane?
*Learns PA so that dota becomes fun again* , *Teammate picks sniper offlane*
He wants to have fun too... Obviously it makes the game very unfun for you or the pa for that matter đ€
got sniper offlane in my team 12hrs ago đđ
Go try pa pos 4 if the enemy has paper supp, orb of corrosion, wand, boots then deso, snowball from there
Did we play the same game last night? đđđ
This legit happened to me the other night and top fed 0-10 between them
Happened to me yesterday.....we lost the game....wtf is a greedy sniper off lane pick!
Love the style of explaining general concepts of the hero on a replay in a repetetive way and really taking the time to go through all stages of the game. Well done.
Never really had the desire to play PA till watching this. I played as much like you said in the video, I was in a rough 1v2 lane with a shaman p5 that was really bad, but still managed a 13:11 battle fury and the timing was perfect, i got a kill in lane, then got ganked, lived and tp base healed and walked mid, got 2 creep waves and small camp then battlefury right when i got to the ancients. Literally the cleanest game i could have had considering the rather lackluster p5.
TL,DR- This guide won me my first nonturbo pa game ez. Thanks Handsome BSJ
I was waiting so long for your monologue around 32 minutes to finish so I could see the PA finally take that ancient stack with the fresh battlefury....and then you just skipped past it!!
I have been waiting for this ever since the Legion one. Thank you so much!
Favorite quote: "You usually hit like a wet noodle, still..."
Thank you, sir, for another great guide to a hard hero. Needs discipline to play it, I guess...
You should do more of this tutorial guides đ love the way u portrait and elaborate abt the characters in depth. đ
Was waiting for a PA one for such a long time. Worth the wait.
very comprehensive and well edited. thanks a lot.
Just the guide i needed! Thank you boss!
THANK YOU LORD BSJ FOR MAKING A GUIDE ON MY FAVOURITE
Nice guide, really like your knowledge and depth, which is what I'm looking for in a how too. Not so much an absolute beginners guide.
This is the first vid I watched from this channel and subbed immediately after he discussed so much info of the gameplay more than the current gametime. I play 6-8games at TI7 era and was on average mmr 3.5k but now currently 1k so much to learn and relearn
I have raised my mmr by 1400 points since watching BSJ.
Granted it doesn't sound like much, and I am still a scrub (raised it from 2800 to 4200) but those that have raised mmr by a 1000 points or more know how hard it can be with all the losses that come with winning and the setbacks.
Thanks BSJ!
Thank you for this brilliant content manđ„
Am i missing something or does Necro clearly have more than PA in this vote... 0:37
allready did 1 for necro
do you consider a 2nd or 3rd item for PA ?? I mean it helps for heroes with esceaping abilities .
Great tutorial, thanks a lot.
Great video as always,next I hope you will do a guide on ck as the hero is stomping both pubs and pros in this meta.
BSJ is literally the single-handed hope for NA dota...honestly.
Actually there's a PA playstile where she's an early/mid game carry and doesn't farm at all, focusing instead in maxing her blur/blink and building as a killer/disabler (first item Deso, Manta, maelstorm or EchoS). But that's viable only when the enemy team doesn't have nukers that can delete her from any TF, or when the team is snowballing in early game and having extra damage and mobility helps more than an afk farming dude.
Man i learned so much from this video but I also laughed a lot, great video BSJ
You know the guy's freaking good when he buys his battlefury before tiny
Hey there BSJ! Absolutely brilliant guide! Couldn't agree more with almost all of the tips you said. I thought PA was just a deso bkb carry, but after playing her for about 150-200 games I'm almost always going Manta as my 2nd item, followed by basher/satanic. Just staying on the edge of the fight looking for an opening because more often than not you will die in mid game if you blink in even if you have bkb(unless your team is absolutely destroying the game). Also against a team full of "Hunters" i just love going aghs as my 2nd item. So would like your opinion on if that's an option?
Imo adapting to items and decision making is important. You could go battlefury second, but if you do, prioritise farming over fighting (cuz bfury is for farming), likewise if you go bkb next then youâre preparing to fight a bit more as it helps you survive. But focus on target prioritisation now. Who can you kill w bkb? And keep in mind what hero can fuck you up after bkb (that way you can kill the person ur immune to w bkb active) and then after bkb wears off you kill the remaining people. Also watch out for who can fuck you up if you jump first. As for aghs the way I see it, it helps you in games where vision is really important cuz youâre basically permanently in blur
How do you die mid game, bkbed on pa?
@@Zenovarse Very easy to kite a mid game pa with bkb. Forcestaffs, glimmers, ghost sceptres, etc. And there are a lot of heroes which shit on her even if she has bkb. Wyvern, bat, beastmaster, enigma, mag, windy, I can keep on going :) The bkb build on PA is centred around using your blink strike as an offensive tool. Whereas if you build around your blur, and use your blink strike as a finishing move or escape, it becomes very very difficult for the enemy to reliably target you. Just my two cents :)
@@Zenovarse Also, please understand that I'm not saying NEVER make bkb. Of course there will be games where it isn't optional :) But in the majority of games i have played, i have reliably found openings by being patient and disciplined with my blink strike instead of forcing an engagement by popping bkb and going in gung ho, only to find 3-4 seconds later that i have killed noone and my bkb is about to expire and I'm out of position :D
@@tenzeegyeltshen383 BTW i meant going bfury as my 1st item :) I have tried going bfury 2nd item in like 5-6 games with mixed success so can't comment on that. Maybe it doesn't suit my playstyle? Thanks for your suggestion and now i can say I'm not crazy and am not the only one who has tried this! :D
Finally BSJ makes a video about my favorite hero!
Can you make a hero guide or any tips on Doom?
Doom seems so complex nowadays unlike the old school radiance build Doom
do you always go for treads instead of phase bots?
For this game too, manta can dispel the silence from dp and the enchant from Enchantress.
Dude you are an excellent coach
Thank you!
nice guide!
very good guide, similar caliber to the Juggernaut guide.
This review is gold. I needed to hear BSJ repeat the same concept multiple times.
*I just came back after 2 years and this is really helpful!!*
I'm pretty sure if i follow this method in lower bracket MMR my team will put all the blame to me if ever things don't go well since all i did is farm and just contribute few daggers in team fights. đđđ
Not sure when but that blink to increase attack speed used to cancel the speed when you changed targets
In Jenkin's channel, pro herald PA player bought MKB to farm Battlefury....Immortals should take note of that!
I was looking forward for this guide. I suck at PA.
I like the editing in this video
Can you give me examples of heroes id like to make PA scepter against?
Seeing this I remember one of my last game on PA, they pushed me to fight when I was far from being ready, so guess what ? We lost and I got flammed :)
Thanks BSJ
that PA skin is really beautiful. I want one
seeing that gobby hoodwink get their come-uppance was great
I love your hero guides! What you said about how pa will win the game off of one mistake from the opponents is so true. I've sadly lost a bunch of games to her when we had a massive lead. It literally took one sloppy mistake to turn things around. Thank you for the awesome content BSJ!
At 36:45 u said eggs or hex or axe I didnt really get that what u said there?
I had a game where we lost evrything except our ancient and we won thanks to the aghs cause anytime they wanted to take a fight they couldn't find me
+ it helped jump from one target to another and perma break their mars and luna
this item can be crazy sometimes
BSJ paused the replay at that Ancient camps looks on tempting.
im a guardian player, and it really surprises me that focusing farming will get me out of these bracket
Is it worth going stick first iten in idiot MMR where no one builds the correct thing? Or should you just wait to see if they buy one before you do.
Doesn't "idiot MMR" imply they will constantly misuse their spells feeding you lots of stick charges? It does depend on the match up though because the enemy does need to have spells to cast.
stick is even better in idiot mmr because they don't expect the burst healing which allows for more outplays.
If ur team is losing as PA get orb of corrosion and deso and hit them very hard
Can you make comprehensive video like this for pos 4 heroes pls
Before this guide I thought pa was easy, straightforward and fun. I found out reality is 24/7 farm as underdog.
If you guys want some pa trivia, BF is a must on her not only because of the farm, but the interaction between Cleave and coup the grace, cleave deals pure damage(phys that ignores armour) so vs AM and terror blade that have insane ammouts of armour you can hit the ilusion and deal more damage to the main hero that way. It is actualy really inportant to do this to play optimaly.
also Deadalus is a very strong situational pick. In some pa games you will feel that you need more damage in the very late game because you cant actualy burst people anymore with your ultimate,
so deadalus makes your Non ultimate atacks actualy deal a good ammount of damage and really gets you back into the game. The way both crits interact is that it checks for an ult crit before the deadalus crit, so you never "miss" any damage really, also it is the item that has the biggest damage number save from divine so it really guives the hero insane ammounts of damage.
Absolutely wrong on cleave mechanics. It has been many years since the change. It was like in 7.20 or something where cleave started to be reduced by Armour.
@@TheNilayAnurag is his deadalus theory correct or wrong as well?
0:34 Necrophos has the most votes tho?
Could you do one for night stalker off lane Mr. Handsome BSJ?
I just want to note that in the poll shown in the video, Necro won the vote with 31 votes vs PA's 26. What Im assuming is that BSJ counted the votes before closing the poll and some last minute votes crept in to change the standings. Or BSJ is blind. Or he just didnt want to make a necro guide so he picked PA instead. Either way, pepega moment.
Lol
Lol
either way still a very good and useful content
He did a Necro guide in the private game a month or two ago.
BSJ is a dangerous psychopath. Jenkins told me. So no surprise here.
'My team is fighting without me! WTF? - Blink in and die.' Story of my life ÂŽ:D
Well now Iâm about to be flammed for spamming 20 games in a row with PA and hear my bracket teammates saying that is a useless hero, but I donât care.
Very complete guide, thanks BSJ
Whats with the echo saber PA? Didn't QO persist on this build for ages and the community just dubbed it trash un-efficient as blink strike is basically a multi proc echo (sans stats)? Why wouldn't you go cloak/morbid/basher or something like that on PA with a magnus on team?
0:36 If the right column is the number of votes cast for a hero, then this should be a guide for Necrophos imho, just saying...
this dude is funny AND educational. prps
BSJ is the God!
Ty guide for troll warlord ty
How can I copy your hero layout
lucky for me, i play low MMR games, where a fighting early PA is viable build, I've been testing with diffusall first item + manta, and it's really efficient especiallyy vs carrys that like to farm a lot, since we fight like a brain dead zombies in crusader games, like we just fight.... we don't go for objectivs or map control, we fight , we are spartans...
in our herald games oh it hurts
me going to play pa as pos 5 after this video :))
note that this guide is for high tier mmr.., playing good does not always mean having fun., he has 4/1/4 stats at the end, and almost just farmed the whole game.., sometimes after bfury, people call for smoke gank to kill someone with pa, which is to be honest a loooot more fun., sometimes it works reallyy good, sometimes it straight up loses the game,. but hey, if you're with friends and are having fun., then go for it :D :D
I just love being teach aggressively
39:50 You get so much gold when you kill people! Noicee teachings!
I'm not sure if my eyes are just bad. But I demoed PA, get Maelstrom and it does proc and crit at the same time. Did I misunderstood this? I thought It's going either or (Proc OR Crit).
The maelstrom damage doesn't crit is what I mean by saying she doesn't crit on the maelstrom
@@BSJ Thanks, BSJ! You're the best. - Fan from The PH
Don't know if this is just cos I am a legend scrub. But I've had a lot of success playing Viper 4, against PA. Bully her out of lane, once you hit lvl6 you can solo her itemless. And she has one less backliner she can jump on. She will eventually beat you late but you usually win the game by then.
Oof, that sounds scary. Viper 4 is such a "you're not allowed to have any fun, enemy team" move
I feel that... but I've never picked pa without seeing two squishy heros. And I can't imagine your team not reporting you second phase or third phase picking viper 4 after seeing the enemy pa.
@@Zenovarse no I first phase pick it in unranked for a bit of fun and the enemy picks PA into it haha.
Somehow i wanted to become patron and vote for Necro just to make BSJ review Gorp's Necro kek
pog pa guide
Pa is really good against jugg, blur stops omnislash instantly
Today I learned the following, after playing PA since 2014: "I'm useless as a PA. Every PA is useless - unless she got 2 items." :D
Wasnât necro the highest voted there?
does the effect "break" disable pa's ult?
Yes
Yes. Break disables every passive from hero skills, except for a few talents, Drunken Brawler, Divided We Stand, Flesh Heap and Grow.
slark pleaseee
Didn't know Giannis was playing Dota 2 xD
My team can't seem to win whenever we have a Phantom Assassin carry
In 2-3k I've seen PA go wrath band/echo/defusal and massacre in mid game fights. Only works if your team is already rolling, but not hard enough that you can win every fight 4v5. Not having a ring for BF also makes sustain in lane hard, but if you have purge/save as a five to let PA live through spells, she'll massacre assuming they're not way ahead on farm.
-
BSJ, please, make an analysis regarding a player who is good at playing in a party queue than in a solo queue.
what does this even mean
"You are FCKIN useless"
* the pain behind his laugh can be heard
BSJ like aren't I supposed to flame my carry for jungling?
Yeah that'll be fun for me...
MAKE VIDEO ABOUT HOW TO PLAY MONKEY KING CARRY
teamfight pa:
phase, orb of corrosion, ac mats, shard, complete ac, bkb, damage item, would recommend nullifier, other stuff could be deso/bf for wave clear against megas, basher, satanic, aghs.
play style:
blink in hit 3-4x, phase out, blink in hit 3-4x phase out.
power threads atk spd doesnt cover what he needs for crits to proc, so phase is much safer option for its defense and its ability. also after that you'll have atk spd covered when you buy hyperstone for ac later.
buy raindrops.
Herald alert
What should you get if you are against something like a Storm/Drow/Lina combo that has physical and magical damage to outlast your bkb? I went for bkb to evate the initial burst and a manta to purge the silence from drow. It became a 60+ min game with us having mega creeps. The fight was still hard. Jumping in was not an option since the bkb ran out really fast while staying behind was not an option as well since the storm / drow harassed everyone to death.
If it's a 60+ min game, lots of random factors start playing significant roles. As for PA specifically, refresher is an option to get the second rotation of abilities and items, you can even get 3rd rotation with ex machina which is pretty hilarious.
Manta was a pretty bad choice IMO. 45:24 he was useless here because he can't do shit against all that AOE the enemy team has. Like not Buying BKB vs KOTL, Hoodwink, Luna is quite a throw. On that fight he could have simply dived the backlines with BKB + Deso while DP was chasing his team and turn that fight to his side. Manta was nigh useless, he even died to luna + KOTL while farmed because the protection manta gives against all that AOE damage paired with high magical damage and disables is nothing. Deso + bkb + shard (For enchantress) is the right call here.
i will play carry even though my team and friends tell me not to play carry
i try not to feed the lane
no timestamps?
Updated PA Guide please! :(
Had no idea Giannis plays dota 2
Big fan ..
I find no reason to max out daggers, Max out blur and blink strike is much better. Why do u need max daggers for?
:31 necrophos with 31 vs pa with 26
