Slowly build huge amount of damage over time, hard to kill, epic support. You will do magic stuffs people are not even aware of :)
Adagio works best with heroes who like close fights. If your team have only ranged heroes Adagio is not best pick.
Frostburn for Adagio is great first item, since Gift of Fire lasts longer than 1 second. Every other second enemy will be slowed for 1 sec, until second 7, so thats at least 3 seconds slows per Gift of Fire.
When you use Gift of Fire on teammate, with Capatitor Plate you get teammate with speed who finish enemy hero, or heal/speed boost teammate in retreat and save his life. Super useful.
Rocks Decree works really nice for teammates, CD reduction and extra health helps, but Capatitor Plate is much more important.
Dragon Eye is important. If you apply Gift of Fire, thats 7 seconds of PVP, wich is about 84 CP more. Add 85 CP from Dragon eye and with just 1 Gift of Fire you get more CP than with Shatterglass.
If you like 2nd CORE BUILD better, remember not to use Agent of Wrath on self, bc you do not have speed. Always find teammate who attack fastest to buff, or who is closest to kill. It depends on situation, if you position well you will do finish blows with Agent of Wrath even with slow shoots.
I would not recommend Glass Cannon build. A bit less CD but more important, Adagios bariers and heals are stronger with more HP. For Adagio CP is more for enemy damage, and HP is more for heals now with 3.4 update.
One on 1. Well, nobody should be able to kill you quickly, you can play, outsmart them. Example, jungler attacks you, help nowhere and you are not sure can you kill him. You must slow him first with Gift of Fire, in the same moment add Agent of Wrath and shoot for about 3 seconds. Now use Verse of Judgement and stun him. Now you see if you can defeat him or not, slow him again and finish or escape.
Never think about Verse of Judgement as some damage dealing ability. Only use it when you can do stun, or when you want to scare of enemies from tower or teammate, and if there is lots of minions and thats about it.
Gift of Fire does much more damage than heal. Remember that. Adagio have troubles with healing big amounts of HP so do not count on that. You can deplete mana quickly if you try to heal teammate to full. Heals does not work like that anymore. Now it is more about bariers.
Hope you enjoyed this basics :) Im long time Adagio fan, and now with new items and 5v5, Adagio is much more useful.
