Nothing is Impossible Top
Ever wondered if the supports become your team's carry? Fear not! Not all supports are based on support!
Q : What do you mean? (Justin Bieber goosebumps..)
A : As mentioned above, not all support/tank are all about the supports or tanks (Meghan Trainor goosebumps, this time?!), they were categorized at support because they're the best at it. So hey, why not try breaking the meta?
Q : What makes Fortress differ from the supports and tanks?
A : Fortress differs from those supports and tanks we have, because, he's an all-build hero! All-build heroes are heroes (I specifically named it all-build) who can do damage in various ways. He or she can go cp, wp, or even hybrid! He's just an all-build hero though, but for now we are talking about the power of cp when used on him ;P
Breaking the Meta could lead to new things Top
I just can't really stand having a character going (their common build), so I had to break the meta for fortress. When I first tried fortress, I noticed that CP was suitable for him.
Me and my team mates, EvanGEN and NatsuGEN, usually had 1v1s. When Fortress is in the free rotation, they would always go saying "Oh ****." When I ask them on a 1v1. Natsu was really good with using a lot of trickery based characters, or basically he's our ganker. Evan is our common carry, and I always fight with him because of uh, a lot of things.
When I tried to break the meta with Koshka, it led me to lifestealer koshka. I was able to come up with that build before it was published here. Well, I was really sad when it was out but the only thing I felt that made me happy is that, it's not only me who thought of breaking the meta with such character :D
When the Fortress goes Offensive Top
I would usually go support, but it was off for me when using Fortress.
Since you've reach this far, you deserve a cookie.
*Gives cookie* *Fortress's stomach growls*
*Fortress steals cookie from Guest*
Aw ****, I guess I can't give the cookie to you.. Oh well i'll repay you with more information wink emoticon
(Though that cookie was really expensive, it even was a Belgium Cookie!)
Agh, back to the topic.
What happens when Fortress goes offensive? Well he would, die, as support, without anyone, to.. Heal.... (extreme heavy breathing, just because of the cookie I gave to you..!)
*Takes deep breath*
The reason why we have Fortress to break the meta is because, to help you guys win games. Though this build is specified only for 1v1s, or basically, this is like when he goes Krul.
This build is really similar to Shinkaigan's Cooldown build on Krul. Though, due to the fact this is not Krul, we had to make sure the hero we hired for this guide is Kru-- I mean Fortress.
PROS :
-> Powerful on ganks
-> Extreme burst damage
-> Aftershock aftereffect, included with bleeding
-> Frostburn, deal damage and slow enemies down. Sped up with our clockwork.
-> Useful after every teamfight, where your enemies run injured and run away. Fun to do to Takas.. Haha x)
-> Strong mid-late game
CONS :
-> Low sustainability to stuns, enemy ganks, and nearly no use
-> Weak early game
-> Not useful for escapes, basically it's for people who wants to gank, not for people to be ganked.
-> I'm Blue (the build ofc)
-> Overdepending on skills, so you really had to buy that clockwork. Sad lyfe.
Fortress's Build and The Purpose of Each Item Top
Well, If you have questions regarding why the items are there, and how they affect Fortress, and his skills.
Aftershock is here with us because, It is really (mostly) effective to
Truth of the Tooth and
Attack of the Pack , due to the fact that
Truth of the Tooth is an activatable attack with aftereffect, but does not land on the target the time it is activated. And because of
Attack of the Pack, you don't just get that awesome pack of wolves and that hp increase, but you get increased damage as well! Also,
Aftershock gives our 2nd skill much more damage, and it can damage up to half of the health of the enemy (if the enemy has no def tho ;-;)
Clockwork plays the largest role in cp builds, of course, but in this build, it is really really needed, and it is reccomended to keep it intact to the build. It supports
Aftershock's description, also
Broken Myth's and
Frostburn's.
Broken Myth can be the tide turner, and this is the reason why it's here. Due to it's consequences (cons) that mention that this build has nearly no effect on teamfights, we had to put it here, because of course, every "normal" game should have a teamfight.
Frostburn is being supported by
Broken Myth and
Aftershock because of the things mentioned above, and since
Broken Myth gives that extra cp boost, you earn more "frosty" boost :)
Journey Boots is that one item EvanGEN considers as "defensive item" due to it's shield and armor, hp increase, movement speed increase, and stuff.
Crucible is something you need. You can get nearer to your opponents, and you can lead your allies forward. Basically this build is like an offensive tank..... cliche.
Hope you understand my shuffly chapter, *brain gets filled with confusion*
