Basically, that's the price of greed, you want more gold or do you want a free slot. Your choice since waves now give full gold and Midas just gets you a bonus based off the gold you already have in hand after a wave.

It is a very decent tradeoff - one i would allways take.
The way midas works now, you just have to design your builds in a way that you can afford to have the midas in your inventory until the time you buy your last item (in one piece prefferably).
The item is to good to ignore and the gold you get is plenty if you build smart.

Howerver, i have to admit that i thought about the question of midas blocking a slot aswell:
A possible solution - if codedable - would be to make midas hammer function from the backpack.
I think that would be atleast worth a thought and discussion.

OMG. Just w8 till some1 in your team get Midas Fury (if you don't need it by yourself) and sell your midas item (1 MF gives midas effect to everyone in team). Or buy MF by yourself then you can even up it to WF - that's your UPGRADE.

No slot wasted, any Phys DD needs WF anyway and there will be one MF/WF.

just put it in your backpack and swap it back in if it bothers you so much

People here who say midas is a greedy item play impossible mode without midas

In this update, where the round 4 is already LC , i think buying midas is essential, since we really need money to actually able to beat the game on higher difficulty ( imposible legendary ) ,

but, if you have a good team and good plan, you can make it so that only 1 - 3 people actually gaining gold on midas item ( saving gold for bigger interest so each round u get max gold midas )
while the other doesnt really have to buy a midas.

This strategy also works, i beat legendary imposible with this strategy last night

Buying an early midas is even more of a noobtrap now then it was before tbh.

The Goldgain from it the first couple of rounds is just abysmall and that 1000g is dearly missing on items that actually help defeat the first couple of tough enemys.
My personal way currently is to get midas items on round 4 the earliest, allways trying to get some core items running before (2nd octarine + force on most heroes, for example).

its not a noob trap, its a twisted.XD, hand of midas is cheaper for early without taking early items.
