FnaticMSI on Dampeer (from our World Cup Post-game interview):
“
N0tail: On paper he doesn’t have a lot of carry potential other than the lifesteal, but that’s also granted to other harder carries on his team. With lvls his spells have super low cooldown with a lot of burst. And in a 1v1 situation he has huge life advantage over his opponent so he is also a factor when catching someone alone. In a trilane he’s a pain in the ass to face.”“
Fly: He’s really strong in trilanes coz of 2 nukes, but he needs a lot of EXP. I still don’t think carry items are so good on him, rather spellshards / portal key / shrunken head, since he does so much burst. I wouldn’t pick him as a sole carry at least.”Since generally being taken off autoban, we're starting to see some effective usage of Dampeer in competitive HoN. For an example of a pro player on Dampeer, check out [MSI] Fly in Game 2 of the World Cup Grand Finals.
