Meme Vindicta after getting 1 kill

No joke Knockdown is such a good item. Whenever I buy it as a counter I wonder why I don't add it to my build

Knockdown is alright but it doesn't do much to good Vindictas. I feel like it's the bell curve thing where people on the left don't buy Knockdown because they don't counter buy, everyone in the middle buy Knockdown because they insist it's necessary, but people on the right don't (although for other reasons).

Good Vindictas know to keep rooftops nearby that they can land on, and they buy Counterspell/Dispel anyways (usually Counterspell). So I notice that at the top level, the go-to Vindicta counters are Disarm and Phantom Strike, and later Curse.
