    i just dominated with my old school build with am a pub game
    but my question is:
    If all am player play this build the winrate of am will go up or down?
    i think bf rusher is a double edge strategy: - u are more vulnerable to attack spammers
    - u dont help alot ur team until 20min +
    -u can lose racks even the game if u are not farmed enough because snowball meta
    soooooo, if player practiced more this : Power T -> Vlads -> Sange and yasha / manta style -> basher -> butterfly
    maybe am would have more winrate because i cannot understand such a powerful hero like he is has a POOR winrate of : 45.01%
    are u serious, i think he can fking destroy any carry if played correctly
    also in the game i could have skilled more my blink, but with one level was enough to fking destroy them, imagine i would skilled my blink to 4, total massacre
    so can someone answer me why am is so weak according to dotabuff
    (SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH)

          I just want to point a few things out in that game to explain how "oldskul AM" thrived there.

          1. The enemy only have subreliable stuns. Your team has a point-click stun in ogre that helped land other subreliable skill shots in your team and locking down targets for AM to effectively engage without having to chase down a target landing 1-2 hits per blink forward.

          2. Jungle LC. An easily bullied safe lane SF. someone who's probably casually practicing voker in nmm.

          3. Normal skill bracket.

          I think AM's winrate will go down. If you went straight for that route and you failed to snowball, he'll end up as a single-target, slow farming sub-par carry and a liability to the team. He's not the type of carry with a much more reliable means to start snowballing unlike PA or jugg or ursa or spec.

          We just released an updated hero and facet statistics page featuring more data and advanced filters. Oh, and it supports Turbo!
