I have been spamming solo offlane Necrophos for the last three months - mostly first pick too. It has yielded a 70% winrate across 53 games which has boosted my MMR by 525 - nice. This has been a mix of solo and party (with one friend) so it jumps between 3.5k and 4k MMR games.

Every single game I go Wand, Arcanes, Mek then Aghs. After that I tend to vary between Greaves, Blink, Hurricane Pike, Blademail, Octarine and Shivas. This depends on the need for dispels, mobility or survivability.

What I don't fully understand is, why does this work so consistently?

Pretty much self explanatory in the title. What's similar and what's different, in your opinion? I've never played Dota2 before, and it's installing right now, so I'm just wondering.

Usually what I've seen is Mask of Madness is one of the 3 items (HotD, Vlads) people used to choose amongst to maintain there mid-game sustain. And now even Solar Crest has emerged as a clear contender for mid-game survivability.

Does MoM have a place anywhere?

What heroes is this item good on now?

I used to get on Tiny, OD and Kunkka but not sure who it's worth getting on anymore.

Solar crest on AW?

Disregarding whether aw is shit or not currently, is sc a good item on him? Tank for himself, damage for both(when used by clone and not by main), 24 armor +evasion when escaping, and a bit of mana regen. Downsides: no damage, so maybe some +damage items before that might be needed.

Thoughts?

Which one is better? Are both a situational pickup?
