definitely a support hero imo. his stats/stats gain is way too weak for anything else and giving your carry 120% IAS and 30% MS is kinda good

#7 get your facts straight please, it's a str hero :P but I agree with you though ;o

OT: I would definitely play him as a support hero, with a hood if he gets a lot of farm

There is no way that this hero is a carry. Pure support, maybe a ganker.

Yeah I agree. I think he should be played as hard support and maybe babysit in a lane. His teether allows him to link his regen and also some attack speed for last hit and survivability in a lane.

Late game all he needs are some items to tank while he teethers insane attack speed for the carry (medusa comes to mind).

His ultimate is also useful for saving the carry (medusa in this case) from any gank globally. I would definitely love to see how it is played competitively though!

So far(actually 3 games) i've been playing it as a ganker/supporter, and i find it awesome. I get threads urns stick and dagger. Did not manage to get more because the game ends around 20minute due to leavers in all 3 games.

The tether spell helps a lot in a gang. It increases movement speed to both the wisp and the targeted hero by 30% at lvl 4, that would give around 450 ms. I would normally activate the spirits first and let it charge to 5 before i use tether. Once i get close to the enemy hero, i can pull off a 2 sec stun and deal 500 damage with the spirits which also slows the opponent.

One amazing thing about tether is that when you cast it on an ally that is 900 range away from you, it will work like a force staff, pushing you forward to your ally. I find this very useful when ganging from fog, since i could charge up my deadly spirits and "force staff" towards the opponent unsuspectedly, dealing almost 500 instant damage.

The ultimate is useful for many situations. I would use it as a free tp back to fountain, and I could even bring along my friend to heal up before going back to lane. I also use it similar to furion's tp. I'll charge up my 5 spirits of death and then cast ulti near the place I'm about to gang, and i'll just tether over to my ally partner and finish off the enemy. Although it last for 12 seconds only, that's almost enough time to complete the gang. The ultimate can also be used to save your carry from dying during a clash, bringing him back to fountain and back again to the battleground with full hp =)

I haven't use the 3rd skill yet though. I believe it should be used after slowing the opponent with the spirits. But I really don't like the 2.5% hp and mp drain, so i didn't dare to experiment with it.

Little mistake in my post, ultimate fail in there.

Anyways, can someone upload a replay on its own? I played few games against wisp and neither one ceased to amaze me.

#12 seem to had good experience. You have saved replay or something?
