General DiscussionFV safelane non-viable?

can work but he's better offlane with a ranged carry in my opinion

Viable in sAfelane for sure , I have been preferring offlane just cuz he's really good at it . Imo play him where it's best for you , I can play him either lane .

Carry void is best void, it's just meta nerds who hate him

Its just 4k being 4k

dude. void can play all lanes. even mid. Fantastic BAT, animation and base dmg + mobility + ability that can heal all dmg? Fkn OP.

shadow did it during their game 2 of wings vs dc ti6 grandfinals lmao what are those people smoking

oh and he also did it in game 3

Meta retards being meta retards
He's perfectly viable as a safelane, with or without the same build

^theres no mean in meta
Useless zero, if you pick this shit in mmr nowadays - you're the total retard

Shadow was absolutely insane on Void in those games. Wasn't he 20/0/16 or something at the end of one game?

this is exactly what I'm talking about. this 4.5k mmr player ("the greatest carry player") flames anyone who picks void as a hard carry, despite my assurances that I personally have great success with it, and that professionals and pubstompers also play the same way

I don't understand where this completely ridiculous idea that void can't carry now that his bash does more damage and he can backtrack damage with his blink came from, but its fucking everywhere

i faced same stuff when i was abusing aw when he just came out
ppl were picking 2x safelane, leaving me solo vs a doubleoff, crying from min 0 etc. even tho i had 71% wr at one point
just ignore the retards







that said, most carry voids i was queued with were next to useless until some1 won the game for them

They probably flame u cus they get all the 6.81 old school void pickers who still rush madness, battlefury and maelstrom.

The manta diffusal build is amazing on void and makes him a really good safe lane carry now.

if you dont buy retarded shit like midas mask of madness daedalus like my last game's one then you're gucci

Daedalus is still quite good just not rushing it. My brother is that most obnoxious void player, look at this match though it is a year ago before void's changes but jesus christ, battlefury, mom, midas and mjollnir.

Mask of madness is awful for void now , it does the exact opposite of what you want to early mid game void . You should be tanky enough early / mid game to withstand burst then shrug it off then have enough survivbilty to make it to next time walk . I like to transition into dps for lategame but early game focus on being a unkillable bastard .

This reminds me of 4ks telling me to go offlane because necro isn't a carry

I just remembered
He's probably alergic to those typical voids who lands 4 hero chrono on teammates every time or chronos trees,then proceeds to build MoM,BF,and only has them after 40 minutes

Mixture of sAfelane and offlane for a decent number of games . Heros a bad ass I've even won both times I was forced to play him mid .

he has amazing base damage and regen, decent contribution in lane for kills, guaranteed teamfight contribution and pickoffs, and scales great. he doesnt farm slow either

if you cant blow the void up i just end up walking at people with purge and kill everyone

I think you can easily safelane with void, of course u gonna play a bit different from the offlane but it's viable IMO.

Just prove to your team that's worth.

Void is pretty much viable on off and safelane right now. I just prefer to play him as an offlaner because imo you can make use of your time walk better. Just personal preference, I like to play offlane after all.

void damage output is not good early-mid so he needs heroes to synergize with his ult which is not reliable

As for carry void, his carry component is still pretty much the same. The difference was only the ridiculous backtrack RNG which doesn't even require skills. Void is in excellent state right now, manfight early, powerful ulti, insane heal up if you cant blow him up, bash, he can't harass ranged carries but he'll be able to farm decent against most safelane trilane anyways.
