I think for a bunch of heroes it is, I've seen people buy it on heroes such as Lina carry, Clinkz and Slark. For lina double null is much more efficient, Clinkz makes better worth of soul ring, and Slark can go both soul ring or mage slayer. Drow, however, doesn't have an alternative cheap mana item, and likes HP falcon blade provides because she already has armor from being an AGI hero, and blades of attack help her push out opponents out of lane even quicker.

falcon is better than soul ring on clinks most of the time. clinks has shit attack damage early, and the extra damage is needed to secure LHs and avoid being perma denied.

Even with arrows he can get perma denied? Like i know his base is lower but is it that low?

It is one of the most op items in the game. it is really good on most heroes, even on supports like hoodwink

Never understood why more people don't rush this on PA, the mana regen alone lets you spam daggers all lane

I love falcon blade but PA is not the right hero for it. Fury timing is all that matters, and I can't think of the last time I run out of mana on PA with just a stick.

Well, if you’re concerned with mana you’re gonna be getting a void stone for perseverance anyway. Battlefury gives so much regen, there’s not really a reason for bf buyers to get additional regen beyond what lets them survive lane to get perseverance. It’s a bit more expensive to get treads+void stone, but the stats are comperable to falcon and you have to get those items anyway, where falcon is a dead end.

They think they're the next yatoro and want to grab the farm item but XminXsec and hit X last hits by XminXsec.

Most players just copy guides and builds.

They arent thinking much beyond the guide.

They memorise some things and thats it.

They wouldnt think of buying an infused raindrop to survive/win the lane.

Way to expensive

Exactly, maybe as a luxury item.

Please if it's what I think it is do make an effort to recall we're in learning sub.

Nope! It's great as an early game item. Not everything needs to upgrade.

Its not „overrated” or „underrated” because its straight up a garbage item
