All Bristle All Mid on Merlini's stream. Shit is hilarious. I've never seen entire teams get melted so fast.

What are some good FB combos. I know the obvious ones Veno/Jugg at lvl 1 and Lesh/SD at lvl 2 but what are some other good ones.

CK+AA at lvl 2, stun, cold feet, rift back into cold feet for proc. Anything that can almost guarantee AA cold feet will generally result in a kill, I believe you can use dispersion too to force proc it at lvl 1 but not entirely sure and would be a weird lane kinda.

Earthshaker fissure cross lane, with good positionning it'll be a sure kill.

Double neutral enchantress gank, can do it at like 1min and 2 neutrals at that level will rape people so fucking hard with any type of disable.

Ursa+any strong disabling hero, especially double disables like Lion or Rhasta.

Gyro with rocket barrage at any level before 6 basically, as long as you can run them down. Pudge with the same type of strat, Rot and run them down with a hook for additional dmg if you can't make it.

Bane as a setup for certain things, for example Bane+Mirana, sleep into long range arrow. Same can be done with clockwerk and furion(less efficient due to tangos early game).

Enigma gank with full eidolon.

The most common FB "strat" though are generally juggernaut ones, it's so easy to setup with basically any support almost, and especially double disables or long slows like veno, CM, Lion, Rhasta. Buy boots first on jugger, get pooled a bit of regen, go safelane and if the enemy isn't in a safe spot they're most likely dead. Other than that, there's also half the mid heroes when they hit 6.

The easiest FB is right off the bat with Visage, 1 point in Soul assumption and pared with basically any disabler/slow in the game. Soul Assumption at level does like 1/2 maybe more of some players HP pool.

If you're in a trilane or into a 5vs5 fight, but in a standard 2vs2 lane it's not that easy to get a full soul assumption count, and you also can't do jackshit but high dmg at that level. Also Juggernaut spin does more dmg, Soul Assumption at rank1 maxed soul is 20+3x65=215dmg, requiring 330dmg to have been done prior to using it. Jugger spin at lvl 1 is 400dmg. But yeah Visage in an early teamfight or a trilane vs trilane is brutal as hell early game. So is Dirge btw, his lvl 1 decay is stupid strong in these situations.

I just did a Dirge trilane a few games ago and was fun as hell. His decay takes 4 str and some supports start off with less than 12? I think. One of my first Trilanes. Ended up fucking up though because I've never done a trilane and didn't know as dirge what I should be doing when I wasn't harassing. I'm guessing pulling camps while VS should've been ganking, but she was pulling which led me to kind of waddle around with my undead dick in my hands.

Was gonna try a trilane Siren/Dazzle/Undying later today. I think that has some huge potential to be ugly mid game. Does dazzle heal wave synergize with undying? I know it does with Siren Illusions, but can you imagine the area control with tombstone and weave. Maybe go SF mid sacrifice top and have DS jungle.
