New Way to Make Bristleback Broken in 7.37e - Don't Choose the Wrong Facet - Dota 2 Guide

[@mmortal8183]

If you have an Oracle, he can use Purifying Flames on BB's back and cause him to fire goo while he is running someone down. Fun stuff.

i remember playing hard goo bristleback since the early years of dota and ppl were "wtf this goo build dude". is so tactical, the slow makes you kite king, the HUGE armor loss makes every single hit add up really fast.. in the early game is very very op if you have a good right click support. if not, it is hard cause it keeps feeding charges to the enemies sticks.

[@kingcobra2858]

13:30 Not necessarily. You can tank fine with either facets but I agree with the timings to a degree. The problem with the goo facet is you are far more reliant on your allies to man up and burst your targets. This goo facet just enables you to play his old ags build/gameplay and yeah you lose the burst potential the new ags provides. Other cons are that you no longer can do chip damage or kill creeps and heroes when you kite in exchange of being harder to chase but that advantage is also lost if they have bkb or dispel skill/items, goo facet is countered more by bkb and dispels while losing synergy with spell steal, halberd also counters you now since you are more reliant to right-click your enemies to get a kill, and lategame you are generally weaker and more reliant on you team than the other 2 facets. Imo, goo facet just enables you to fight earlier(assuming you lane partner is on the same page) and play kinda as a better support/tank in early to mid game assuming they havent countered you yet using items. Enemies with skills or items that can deal with your goo can simply ignore you and kill your allies first(the same problem with old ags BB) unlike the other facets with ags where they are forced to deal with you or bait your ags first. Another con I see is that you are more susceptible to breaks mid game, in goo facet you buy pipe first then something to make you tankier like vanguard or heart or whatever. More often than not, that will have less counterplay than a bloodstone+ags with the other facets and/or more expensive to reach the same tankiness. As BB, your best bet to patch up a break is to buy items that gives you enough bulk and sustain to keep you alive until break expires and iv tried nothing is more efficient than ags+bloodstone. Hell, you can add octarine core and you can no longer feel the break. Unlike goo facet BB with pipe first item and what ever the next 2 major items will leave you less tankier or more expensive to farm. As a BB main, you can definitely dominate your lane and even kill them under the tower with any facet assuming you know your match ups and know what you are doing. Therefore I believe going goo facet over seeing red imo is not worth it. Even the attack speed facet has advantages over goo facet.

[@HayatiNahqia-c3i]

Can u explain how to counter some silver edge break on Bb? Can octarie core tank the break

[@ayubious]

​@@HayatiNahqia-c3iyou can dispel silver edge with bkb if you activate it after (not before). besides that, play safer and kite until they use it

[@seamusmccarty4626]

@@ayubiousyeah I think part of the reason this guy built lotus is to dispel the hoodwink break

[@flame9375]

@@HayatiNahqia-c3i i have tried every single thing.Ghost scepter is the best cheap counter to silver edge but if you want a definitive counter s and y + bkb + refresher is the way

[@jaxperfestejo3917]

gorc did the safelane version of this facet(seeing red didn't exist) 7 months ago it's fun like playing a hard to kill bootleg version of PA cuz of daedalus and that 25 warparth talent

[@IgnacioMartinez-q1g]

Love your vids bro I took a break from dota but I still chime in on your videos just to keep up lol! Always informative and helpful thank you man

[@MusicCollectorTS]

Hands down the most fun build i've played for this hero. The playstyle explanation in this video is on point. 10/10 guide

[@leverloos]

Been running snot rocket for a while. went tank items in general, depending on enemy matchup either armor or magic resist. It's a beast in teamfights. I will try go for the bujild mentioned in this video see how that goes. I always felt like bristle aghs build took way too long to get online.

[@fatperuvian2980]

Happy birthday speeed

[@St1TcHinGMonk3y101]

Played a few games @4K and heres my thoughts - you will likely not do much damage and not get as many kills as your normal scepter build, not having scepter quill spray and the quill procs from bristleback simply means you do waaay less damage. Yes its an incredible utility to have everyone slowed, but as soon as the enemy team have BKB's you really dont do much in fights. I understand that its a good tanky build that come online sooner, but idk feels pretty average in pubs...

[@Batuhan1988]

I think lotus is more like for silver edge, in case if someone goes to that build, adds armor and spell deflect and purge, gets you out from silence as well.

[@rendy5092]

I was a seeing red believer but just tried this and it is very good. With dazzle vs a weaver grimstroke, game ended sub 30 min.

[@v1ntee]

I believe Phase boots was a mistake, dire lack phys dmg(Muerta does magic). Maybe if he's going for a more aura/supp aproach; arcane boot would be ok, 'cause you always can upgrade it to greaves

[@helpyouraccount009]

During TI14, Sneyking from the Falcons had already done this.

[@ethandonaldson7565]

I wonder if early tranquil boots/ drums would work. Then boots of bearing after pipe, it would be such a strong team fighter

[@cat4890]

actually broken bb shard + tb reflection

[@Biggerfoot]

bro try armlet and desolator, you take people into negative armor and then armlet 2 hits them. bb is my baby

[@sebastianGunnarson71]

as a safelaner? no way youre going armlet deso on offlane bristle. even if you do well youre forgoing important offlane utility items that will throw you the game

[@Biggerfoot]

@@sebastianGunnarson71 naw you go boots, shield, shard, amulet, ags, heart, then ether butterfly or a damage item or mana style.

[@leogura6580]

But no damage you only relied to your team to damage enemies.

[@gimmiegimson1748]

Quill still is damage, goo slows so you can run them down

[@maciejbrodecki9667]

lol xD For the first 3-4 levels then you deal damage as always

[@kristianstenerson2608]

I been seeing snot rocket a long time now in ranked, I just wanna say everytime it is a grief. Off the mark here Speed, that's my honest opinion. I've accidentally taken it once and we won, but literally every other time I've seen snot rocket it's not great.

[@Kamenb1801]

It's good with support who can engage and help you. Also even if you are bursted first in a teamfight you leave enemy team with 3-4 goo stacks.

[@kristianstenerson2608]

@@Kamenb1801 it’s mediocre at best that’s my honest take. Bristle already isn’t very good right now, and I think he’s best built as a semi carry (crimson sny basher).

[@Tomascio]

can brisle whith this build a support ??

[@kingcobra2858]

I think thats what this BB is more suited for.

[@LetsShitPost]

Yes, and it's really good

[@manuelcucho4481]

i'll try now

I tried it a while ago. You have no idea how annoying it is to be slowed to a crawl if you don't have many sources of dispels.

i wonder if using the khanda with this build would be good. minus armour and crit.

[@steve13thlegion16]

Man I’ve been so looking forward to the 318th bristleback video that tells you to play bristleback the exact same fucking way the last 317 videos told. I can’t wait to watch this I tell you, just can’t wait. 2025 bristleback videos in 2025, let’s goooooo. Dead channel, creator has other priorities.

[@marklouisubaldo2899]

got to 4k with this hero right now xd

[@sergeantkarl9824]

But youre forgetting aghs bristle with lifesteal(bloodstone, neutral or any source really) is super super tanky and can frontline way better than goo bb once he hits that timing
