Main tank deckard Cain

General Discussion
1

He can heal, he can root, he can slow, he can stun, he catches people out of position

Forget about xul or uther. Deckard main tank is the real deal :sunglasses:

Saphire
Potion of shielding
Kanai Cube
Lorenado
Super healing potion
Horadric staff
Bottumless flask

So the trick is to trow yourself a bunch of potions
You walk up to them and be the frontliner your meant to be. If someone jumps on you. You drop your cc. The cube at 7 will help you survive it.
Lorenado is to suck them in to the enemy and your own personal peel. You can also push the backline away from you.

And its freaking effective. At least that one time I played ranked and my potatoe masters team picked 4 squichy backliners. #allowmetoplaywithmyfriends

This seems to have much potential, let me try it

I think overall the Deckard main tank team will lose, because Deckard is unable to properly engage.
But playing Deckard is fun especially with an aggressive playstyle. I’m also a fan of the Horadric Staff :smirk:

Yeah you can legit troll as Cain, i did it with the stun stick talent like a year ago, it was hilarious watching them try to kill me, especially in 1v1, my opponent was bullied out of the lane xD…

I didnt had that problem. They were all over me. So I just needed to drop a lorenado and some cc

Getting successful once is not the same as getting successful consistently.
If you can do this reliably, I might consider it.
But for one game, I won’t draw conclusions other than what I already knew: Cain has a lot of CC and he’s hard to kill.

deckard can legit troll an enemy team… if your team follows up your trolling 90percent of the time you will win

but i had matches where iran in my potions for 2mins straight not dying and my team sat back refusing to ENGAGE so i died after ooming or something tragic really

I ran this with harb. We won one and lost one.

One in dragon shire where he was the tank as decky. because imperius was top, I find it pretty succesfull for now on. Deckys healthpool is good for a healer
The other one… well lets say butcher had his quest done in 5 min because of a questionable deathwing…

Misha + Aba is indeed a strong combo.

Yeah that was the highest winrate 2 hero couple on hotsprofile last time i checked.

I’ve tried that myself and it’s not bad, but doesn’t feel as new as Deckard tank sounds.

Something very cool if you play ana, may be a carry medivh. Nanoboost is very powerful on him.

His Q has 1s CD, which means that with 200% cdr from nano, the CD becomes 0.33 seconds. So that’s triple the damage per second.

Then multiplied by 30% cuz of the spellpower, that’s almost 400% the damage for the duration. He must land every Q though.

And with the CDR talent for the shield @13, the CD goes from 4 seconds to around 1.5 with nano, which is what the shield lasts.

So medivh is dealing 400% Q damage while invulnerable in the middle of the enemy team.

I find medivh really scary to nanoboost . I hope you have better experience :stuck_out_tongue:
If he misses 1 Q its a problem.

I do sometimes nano valla Q build and hanzo
But I cant trust random medivs xD

Nah dont do it with randoms, do it on a friend you can trust is a good medivh.
