DOTA - Doom / Lucifer Tips, Build, Strat

(In Warcraft 3 / DOTA) Lucifer / Doom / Doom Bringer has a brilliant silence (move), when used it silences a lot more than just your usable spells and the inventory items.

It also prevents and takes away…

1. Orb effects
2. Buffs (But not all, Insatiable Hunger is one of them and you can still lifesteal)
3. Magic immunity (Note: The hero is still in avatar mode but is still silenced and taking damage)
4. Lifesteal
5. Bash
6. Critical Strikes

The 2 heroes that are 'anti-Doom' type of hero's are

Leviathan

1. Kraken Shell lessens the time Doom takes effects.

Abaddon

1. If one of your allies was cast with Doom just cast aphotic shield on him/her to remove doom.

2. If you are the one being cast with Doom, don’t worry since borrowed time will remove Doom once it activates when your life reaches 400 below.

I agree to your post. Doom has the best silence ever. In the new version, the doom spell is not much to be afraid anymore. As long as you have "hood of Defiance" the damage of doom is not much to worry about. But still, you need to stay away from battle because silence is still a disadvantage.

Wow, Doom was such a fear character specially in the hands of a skilled player, talk about his final skill that was included with the Aghanims Scepter, such a deadly combination: dagon Lvl 4 + Lvl Death + Doom = Instant death, maybe...

If battled one Vs one, Linken Sphere is the best item against Doom Spell.
