Just thought I’d post this here. Other videos on my channel also showcase how to kill thieves. Stop the QQ, please.

EDIT: By request, I’ll use this video instead (2m44s for thief counterplay).

It was 3v1 and u just finished his last 5-10% hp and you got lucky with the knock back. Good job anyways!

You should clip the other video with the chaining of sic ’em and knockback and link that instead.

i was in a 2v1 vs a thief… could not be killed or even taken to half health.

Cant be immobilized

I think its funny the amount of healing a theif can do just from their initiative skills.

Then they can siphon health better than a necro with venom

Then they have like non stop shadowsteps

this is just bleh

x.X wasn’t the thief fighting guards when vik jumped him…
He was at like ~85%. Only thing that bothered me that the thief did was run for so long… maybe waiting on his ult’s CDs.
Plus hey, it’s a fight (which are rarely “fair”, unless you’ve been brainwashed by watching UFC and saying “that’s true fighting” – yes and no…(they are good fighters don’t get me wrong…just they follow rules… which … ugh tangents)), he took advantage of the thief’s unawareness and got a jump on him… Any other player would have done the same if they wanted to win…

Thief can heal a very small amount for each initiative spent and can use signet of malice to heal a small amount for every hit. But those traits / skills are rarely used since there are way better alternatives.

With our low base health we focus more on bursting than sustaining.
