Dota 2
What is the Best Item to counter Troll Warlord??
idk why but i see like troll warlord is very powerful in latest patch
everytime i fight a team with him i ended up losing
seriously troll hitting u like he just take a steroid and Bash Bash Bash Bash
and deal insane damage
and this problem is worse-er to support which got low HP
I search up the wiki to find ccounter item and i found:
1.Blademail
2.Heaven Halberd
3.Sycthe of Vyse

Lets said i play a support
no way i have enough money to buy heaven halberd or sheepstick
and blademail seem weird to support..(or it isnt? what u guys think?)
I thinking to buy forcestaff but I realise troll is very fast(with S&Y and boots)
btw i got no time to forcestaff away if that troll Bash Bash Bash me
What u guys think?

euls (which is a good support item) can help a little as well. it gives you some chance to escape, a short way to disable him during team fights to allow your carrys to get set up for the kill. Maybe since your support use a disabling support (until he gets Black King Bar of course)

A good troll is hard to counter, because if he is smart and sees himself getting hit with disabling abilities, and items, he just buys black king bar and goes on about his business of slaughtering your whole team.

Force Staff - you can use it on yourself OR ON TROLL. push yourself away, hit him with it and turn and run the other way. As a support he will be targeting you, you are an easy kill for him. His skill depends on consecutive hits so break his attacks up and it will slow him down a bit.

Tanker/Durable should purchase
- Blademail
- Halberd
Support should take Ghost skepter.

Other than that Troll tends to have low hp pool without stat items.

Troll is easly counterable with good hero pick

you can't just rely on items as solutions for everything.

it's a really bad habbit, i'd rather recommend to learn to position so you don't get initated by him in the first place.

I hope you're joking,
in real fight Ursa only win if he isnt disabled/slowed or hit by miss skill.
spectre is more into anti intitiator and support killer , i once saw 6 slot spec vs 6 slot troll , troll wins easly due damage and bash. This doesnt even count that troll will have huge advantage from item build rather than spec.

halberd if you use physical damage heroes or ethereal if you use magical damage heroes, wards and dust, and mkb

Troll is op but just buy a ghost and to if he gets a diffusal glimmer cuz by that time he doesn't have space for some dust or detection if he is alone

Ask your STR/Support that builds core item to make halberd, that thing cannot be purged.
BM wont really work since it depends on pick
I am quite sure each time also need a skill that goes through BKB in case you're fighting against one. (Enigma,Clock,Vengeful,Bat,Magnus,Treant etc)
Troll is almost like ursa, as long you can keep it on range he wont be that deadly unless he already own a BKB/Skade and you dont have any disable that goes through bkb.

In my experience fighting troll , i rarely found one overpowered in lategame. (His item build is very pricy af almost like medusa but he doesnt need that int stat)
because things like CK/Spectre/Medusa are more deadly than troll.

You win by counter picking and good teamwork disables. Blink dagger is your best friend.
