My hero guides are mainly for people learning how to play Dota or for those who want to learn how to play a new hero. I aim to teach people the general concept of how the hero should be played and what makes it unique. I'm a Divine player around 5k and don't claim to be the best at Dota, but I do have enough knowledge and experience to help you learn the basics.
I hope you enjoy the guide.

[@omni1562]

What about items?

[@CatboyPrincess]

11:24 you say that spiked carapace does not reflect damage, unlike blade mail. This is incorrect. For the instance of damage that procs spiked carapace, the damage DOES get reflected AND negated. For one instance of damage, it is a SUPERIOR blade mail. Ex. against a Lion or Lina ult, because they take a few frames to apply their damage instance, it is actually possible to reactively use Spiked Carapace to NEGATE the ult damage, REFLECT it back to them, AND STUN them.

11:30 "it's not like blademail" *while literally hovering over the tooltip that says it reflects damage*

[@sectero9450]

With bm you still get damage, they are like spectra despersion. You block damage and reflect it.

Has nyx... Always had hands?

[@andrasvarga2984]

it's a skin :)

Just jammed nyx nyx in the search bar and found this, great video :D Btw I still think aghs on nyx assasins is wayy too overrated, it removes his movespeed and puts him in the most vulnerable position to get hooked, skewered, chronoed and a lot more things. Imo nyx is a mobile stealth assasin and impaling from the burrow literally reveals your location:V not to mention the digging animation being visible to the enemy team. That and in my legend bracket, people are not gonna group up for objectives and more likely a push ends with the carry with aegis divine t4

[@raidenthomas1604]

It's very strong in certain situations, you are definitely right though. If you build it in the wrong game you've really boned yourself.

[@vulpritprooze]

Maybe in this match, he could have used aghs because of how aggressive his teammates are

[@Tragedyval]

this hero is made for dagon, you build dagon on him and do your combo to kill 1 hero. Dagon 5, ether blade, boots rest is your preference. If you just go around the team and play around with your stun then you might as well just play lion.

[@cykablyat1466]

I play a lot of nyx and I don't really see many situations where i would choose aghs over other 3rd or 4th items. It seems really situational and perhaps there are aura items that the team needs that would help more in these situations or force staff.
