If you have a roamer like Riki or BH, ward their jungle and ancients and look for Sven there. If you see him jungling you can smoke to gank him or maybe solo gank him, when he is low.

I know thats a bit advanced and harder to do on Sven, because he normally doesnt get too low, when he is jungling, but it can be an option (especially with smoke and a teammate).

In pro games where people know how to use force staves etc, and counter with picks like viper sven just runs around then dies usually

Force Staff is the hard counter to Sven. Once he blinks and stuns his mobility tools are practically nonexistent. Warcry is only a static 10% MS at all levels, and is mostly an armor buff to improve his man fighting.

Unless your team screws up and eats a 3 man Storm Bolt, your supports should quickly Force Staff his target away and try to kite out his BKB duration. Manfighting him is a piss poor option on most heroes unless you somehow catch him with God's Strength down.

It happens in my pubs because I buy the staff and use it, that's how you can make anything happen. I also get commended a lot.

Seconded/thirded, buy a force staff/wind lance and just disengage or go for heavens halberd if you want to try and manfight him. Or just pick Axe and go blademail and laugh at him.

Windlace and infused raindrop are not bought enough (by me). They're great early slot filler items that are pretty efficient.

Infused raindrop is insanely good. i was buying those against a super aggro skywrath mage and he couldn't do anything to me lol

I just said fuck it and bought 5 treasures to get AM's illidan skin... got it on the last one 2:^)

Yeah, 235 gold. That's a nice item. I've never bothered trying out the raindrops.

Does a second windlace stack with eul's/drums? I've never bothered buying one after I get the eul's or drums to check.

Woops yeah, VerseGrave is the correct ID. I posted the wrong name, thanks.

I'll figure out the Rerolled room and let you know. Appreciate it.

I can't play ranked games yet but I am working on it. I wish there was like an advanced player option or something. ^^
