There are dangerous, statistically game-losing Aspects and there are “dangerous” hero Aspects. Those that obtain mockery, whereas technically being respectable in some situations. In the present day we’re going to go over aspects that we really feel get underserved hate and analyse how and when they are often the higher possibility.
Reverse Polarity pushes enemies away throughout Magnus as an alternative of pulling enemies which are in entrance of him.
Defending this aspect is trivial. Base stats alone are already fairly a profit, with a 20-second decrease cooldown and a ~60% bigger AoE on a BKB-piercing 3-second disable. Is it anti-synergetic to the remainder of the Magnus’ equipment? Sure, in case you are enjoying a right-clicking, damage-dealing Magnus. If you’re all about utility, there are a number of issues to contemplate.
Initially, the Skewer-back combo is kind of the identical, if a single goal is worried. A whole lot of the time a single pick-off is what Magnus is fishing for, so a Blink-Skewer doesn’t actually lose potential in a coordinated recreation. Blink into Horn Toss into Skewer can also be untouched, for if you want an additional setup.
Secondly, simply by default, RRP is best at defending your ranged teammates. Simply blinking on high of them after they have been initiated on will give a number of respiratory room to your carry. You’ll be able to even observe up with a Skewer to get a problematic goal as distant as attainable, coping with smaller threats first.
There may be additionally the query of save gadgets and talents. 
Lifestealer desires to infest a teammate? Too dangerous, the teammate is now ~1700 vary away. 
Io desires to relocate any person out of a foul spot or Mekansm double-heal? Nicely, the Tether is now damaged they usually can’t. 
Abaddon simply used their Aghanim’s final? Allow them to waste it in a quiet nook, when you kill their teammates, who are actually 900+ vary away from the hero.
This additionally applies to all of the 
Glimmer Capes, 
Power Staffs and 
Wind Wakers that out of the blue can’t be utilized by the helps, until they’ve a 
Blink Dagger or a number of sources of forged vary enhance.
The top end result, in our opinion, is an undoubtedly area of interest, however highly effective instrument in opposition to lineups which have a number of saving talents and potent AoE therapeutic. It is usually fairly nice when defending glass cannon-type heroes in your staff and when your staff is missing AoE injury and is best off killing enemy heroes one-by-one in isolation.
Chronosphere is changed by an impact that dramatically slows down enemies and hurries up allies in an space.
It’s a lot more durable to argue in opposition to what’s probably one of many strongest crowd-control talents within the recreation. Time Zone does have a 30-second decrease cooldown and an even bigger AoE, however it’s no Chronosphere. That stated, we really feel like in lots of matchups it won’t matter as a lot.
The massive one is that the enemy will get to press BKB and different save gadgets to disregard the impact. Essentially the most problematic one is Wind Waker, which permits a goal to get from the centre of the Time Zone to the sting of it, whereas being invulnerable.
Equally, gadgets like 
Satanic totally work, permitting enemy carries to lifesteal and doubtlessly survive by the flexibility, the place in any other case they’d die. That is with regards to late-game situations. Early on, although, there are positively some promoting factors going the best way of Time Zone, which stats-wise is barely ~0.8% behind the Chronosphere by way of Win Price.
Initially, Void will get further +70/110/150 further Assault Velocity within the Time Zone. The extent two Time Zone AS enhance is equal to a 
Masks of Insanity and even degree one AS enhance is much from trivial. To grasp it higher, have a learn by certainly one of our earlier posts, which explains the connection between Injury, AS and DPS.
Briefly, early recreation solo-kill potential with a well-placed Time Zone will be larger than with a Chronosphere, as the additional length and the additional AS may give Faceless Void sufficient extra complete injury to complete off a goal. It’s at its finest when coping with heroes who depend on mobility, moderately than crowd management, for security. So heroes like 
Queen of Ache, 
Ember Spirit, 
Void Spirit and so on. will be actually punished early on. It is usually unlikely they’ll have a 
Eul’s Scepter of Divinity as their first merchandise, not to mention a Wind Waker.
That is with out the potential contribution from teammates, who can freely stroll into the Time Zone and still have elevated stats, most notably the Solid Velocity. 
Shadow Fiend’s Requiem and even 
Sand King’s Epicentre grow to be virtually instantaneous contained in the Time Zone, making it an excellent setup for in any other case hard-to-land-in-the-fight talents. One shouldn’t underestimate the AS differential contained in the Time Zone both: with the extent 20 expertise Faceless Void beneficial properties +230 AS, whereas lowering the enemy AS by the identical worth.
It’s inconceivable for the enemy staff to struggle contained in the Time Zone, very similar to it’s inconceivable for them to struggle inside Chronosphere. Whereas there may be positively much more counter-play potential, as Time Zone isn’t a full disable, the additional length and the AS/Solid Velocity differential it creates will be considerably stronger teamfight-wise, particularly if Void isn’t enjoying in a 4+1 lineup.
Maybe going for a Injury farming merchandise in 
Battle Fury, versus the standard 
Maelstrom and Masks of Insanity can also be a good concept for DPS and farm velocity maximisation causes. The traditional construct offers ~15% extra injury over the length of the Time Zone, but it surely additionally prices ~25% extra. Furthermore, it’s attainable to disassemble Masks of Insanity to get one of many Battle Fury elements, which permits for a reasonably neat merchandise development.
Alternatively, since Wind Waker is a big downside, there may be an argument to be made about 
Radiance for farming early on. It may be later disassembled into elements for 
Nullifier and 
Butterfly, whereas being a good acceleration merchandise and a reasonably good teamfight merchandise for the sooner phases of the sport. It is vitally unconventional and we by no means examined it ourselves, but it surely does make some sense in concept, so in case you are courageous sufficient to strive it in observe — depart us a remark about the way it went.
