![]() ![]() And yet, the item is built today, by pros, on heroes like Spectre, Terrorblade, and Phantom Lancer. And it sounds even worse on Terrorblade, who prefers items that grant stats for his powerful illusions. It sounds terrible on paper on a hero like Spectre, who has a seemingly better alternative in Radiance or Diffusal Blade that has synergy with her ultimate. Neither illusions nor ranged heroes benefit from cleave. ![]() It was well worth it.īattle Fury On Illusion and Ranged Heroes Even though its damage was reduced by 5, the item’s overall cost was also reduced from 4500 to 4100. Cleave’s damage increased from 35% to 40%, its end radius from 280 to 330, and distance from 520 to 575. Then, in 7.02, 7.03, and 7.07, Battle Fury saw two more buffs that tipped its usage from niche to core. Patches 7.00 further tweaked Cleave’s damage and radius, increasing its damage and radius to adjust for Cleave’s new trapezoidal hit area. ![]() In spite of a history of buffs, it was still in need for more. The item eventually found its way into Juggernaut builds, and briefly had a home in Faceless Void when the hero was strictly a hard carry.

From its inception to 6.84, it had its damage increased (55 to 65), its components costs reduced (a net reduction from 5100 to 4575 gold), cleave radius increased (overall from 160 to 280!) and its innate regeneration buffed. It competed with Orchid as part of her build, and the fact that Battlefury’s Cleave gave no advantage on a ranged hero didn’t matter.īattle Fury has been buffed since the beginning of Dota time. A History Of Buffsīattle Fury’s efficiency as an item today is reminscient of back in Dota 1, when it wasn’t unusual to see it as a core item for Windrunner. Then once RTZ picked it up on Terrorblade at Galaxy Battles, it was about time to talk about whether the item has become too strong in the meta. Pros have started building it on Phantom Lancer, diverging from his tried and true builds.
