Troll Warlord - What would be a good Six-slot?
Excluding the need for a BKB?
I know Phase, Satanic, Butterfly, Daedalus, MKB are good choices. I like S&Y on him but I hear that's for when you just have not enough farm. And Manta doesn't seem that great for him since the illusions dont gain from his passive.

There is diffusal but I dont know much on that and how well it works for him

If you're rocking all these items then it's time to become unkillable. Go for a heart. That insane HP boost helps anyone.

Also situationally blink dagger aswell. Also an item that helps anyone.

Well if by the time you have those items ^
The only thing I can think that'd be helpful for you and your team-mates would be either a heart, you have Satanic so why not make it worse.
Assault Curiass for the armor.
And I would say Linkens but if you needed Linken's, chances is that BKB was viable also.

Troll with all of his cool moves is a pretty straight forward hero. Get damage, get crit, get lifesteal and dont die. BKB will always be an item you get on him because of how much it universally helps him. Say build Phase>Helm of Dom>Bkb> crystalus, and from there pick situational items.

Need dmg? Daedalus and maybe Desolator
Need tank? AC and Heart is awesome
Wanna go fast? Drums and S&Y work great.

Depends on the enemy team but those first items are core.

I would think some heavy evasion would do him some good, but deadalus would be great since he has attack spead already

I like shadow blade on Troll, for ganking and getting away.

^ Butterfly. And MKB is his best item for pure dmg. Daedalus is great also

sb or blink, bkb, boot of travel, fly, deadlus, mojlinar

My normal cookie cutter build for mid is to build Phase,Ring A,Bottle (not in that order but more to what i need and how well/bad i farm), into BKB, MKB, HOD, Statinic, Damage item/New BKB.... This i may note is more a Mid role troll than a safe farmer but TBH id maybe just not get the bottle cause id just have more lane regen.

Ofc i change it up for what im up Vs but i like the BKB rush so you can still gank and do team fights without just folding over like wet towel.
The Reasons for the MKB next is that i dont like the 10% bash its just so temptermental at best and its only for melee which hurts it even more so the minibash just helps being able to lock them down.
I dont need to say much on the Statinc but in a whole is just a better item over heart on most AGI heros.

Ofc this is my cookie cutter build so if i was up Vs more Right click damage id rush a Halberd over a BKB, if i was up Vs more a magic line up id go for a Skadi over MKB. But ofc there are other things to go and build aside S&Y.... that item is over used on fair to many heros.
