I ' m sorry I quit reading when you denied the DNC hacks , so maybe I misunderstood . But if not , a person who denies factual evidence Wikileaks is reaching . Which you appear to be doing . <| sep |> that used to be true . Sony , Samsung , LG are all about the same as far as reliability <| sep |> Yeah definitely the most expensive coin . <| sep |> I was having same problem when I started invoker . I learnt combos and stuff but I mostly lost . I will state the reasons I was doing badly . Try to avoid playing QW invoker . Kinda weird advice but you should play QW only when you have a very greedy lineup else you should play exort almost exclusively , even if there are some heroes in enemy team who are reliant on mana . Don ' t join team fights . Don ' t listen to your team mates who think that invoker is a caster who should rotate and try to get kills from level 6 or something . Your highest power spike is when you have aghs and you are level 16 . So , don ' t just rush aghs , get some smaller items . Get drums or eul ' s . I get eul ' s because I feel more comfortable with it and I can get some pick offs which boost my economy . In later team fights , you should be at the back . Don ' t go on frontline as invoker is quite squishy and relies and lot of illusiveness to survive . Learn effective spell usage . Which I think is the most important thing . Invoker is not just a single combo hero . You can do a lot as him . You can kite melee heroes . drain mana . Kill fleeing heroes . Learn to suntrike . Suntrike kills in the early game is most important thing to get fast items . Look at the map all time to find sun strike kills . If you have any heroes who can stun or lock a hero then ask them to use it or just keep an eye on them . Don ' t always initiate , wait for the right moment to make sure that your spells land .
