Noble® Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 an 100% Noble's handmade guide which targets to show you the basics of Rylai Crestfall! if you are going to use this guide whole or partially give the proper credits to Noble Noble's note:Rylai is fragile like a glass,if played right then you are tough as Titanium!Rylai is the first char is ever played at Dota,if played newbiely then you ll be breaking as glass and your team will be fighting for you too...a good hero for killing sprees ideal for support and backup Rylai Crestfall,the Crystal Maiden Introduction Adept in the manipulation of frost and ice, Rylai is the very image of elegeance and grace. Trained by a renegade wizard deep in the heart of Winterspring, Rylai brings to the Sentinel her prowess in the arts of magic. With a vast arsenal of spells, she wreaks havoc upon her foes - be it with powerful blasts of frost to send them fleeing in panic, or be it by rendering them immobile in ice. Her foes tremble in fear as the ground beneath implodes in mighty novas of frost in a dazzling array, obliterating all who dare oppose her. Starting Stats + Gains Str: 16 + 1.7 Agi: 16 + 1.6 Int: 21 + 2.9 Note:Pure Stat gains on AGI and STR but very good INT gains Reasons to pick Rylai CM 1)Great passively MP regen without the help of items 2)relatively good killer 3)can synergize with many combinations 4)nice disables 5)Nice ganger Reasons to leave CM unselected 1)fragile like hell 2)Low stat gains 3)item dependant for survival 4)easily pwned by DPS 5)Low armor 6)Low HP 7)Hard to Play 8)Low starting MS(280) 9)Easily gangable Skill Introduction and Explanation Frost Nova (V) Blasts enemy units around a target enemy unit with a wave of damaging frost that slows movement speed and attack rate for 4 seconds. Level 1 - 50 target damage and 75 nova damage---->100mp Level 2 - 100 target damage and 100 nova damage---->130mp Level 3 - 125 target damage and 125 nova damage---->155mp Level 4 - 175 target damage and 125 nova damage---->185mp Cooldown: 11 seconds. Note: *This is your main skill which is used to harass your opponents especially early game *This skill is useless late game usable only to finish a runner :) *Damage is reduced on heroes because of the 20% passive magic reduction every dota heroes have! *Damage is amplified as Target + nova damage:example lvl4 is 175target damage & 125 nova damage.its 175+125=300 on creeps , consider 240damage on enemy heroes *Can slow AS and MS at the same time as effect Frostbite(E) Freezes the target in a case of ice, prohibiting movement and attacking. Deals 70 damage per second. Level 1 - Lasts 1.5 seconds---->115mp Level 2 - Lasts 2 seconds---->125mp Level 3 - Lasts 2.5 seconds---->140mp Level 4 - Lasts 3 seconds---->150mp Cooldown: 10 seconds. Note: *A great Disable imo capable of trapping a single enemy in a box of ice giving you the chance to finish him with your allies *Damage is magical so calculate the passive resistances *can easily achieve sprees or combine it with ulti to get kills *you can use this along with Frost Nova in order to harass your enemy and force him to visit Fountain frequently Brilliance Aura(Passive) Gives additional mana regeneration to all friendly units. Level 1 - Adds 0.75 mana regeneration. Level 2 - Adds 1.5 mana regeneration. Level 3 - Adds 2.25 mana regeneration. Level 4 - Adds 3 mana regeneration. Note: What can we say for this skill? Rootfellen is famous and wanted for his living armor, Rylai is wanted especially amongst INT type heroes as this skill provides mana regeneration per second!this means spam our nukes!nothing more to say lol Freezing Field(F) Causes many random icy explosions in an area surrounding Rylai. Enemy units in the Freezing Field are slowed. Lasts 4 seconds. Level 1 - Each explosion deals 105 damage---->300mp Level 2 - Each explosion deals 170 damage---->400mp Level 3 - Each explosion deals 250 damage---->600mp Cooldown: 150/120/90 seconds. Note: *Its a Channeling spell *It deals magic damage so calculate the passive reductions on heroes *Great for killing/finishing off enemies in team battles! *Dont use it for useless purposes as its cooldown is relatively high *Greatly synergizes with Aganhims scepter *Deals up to 800dmg at lvl3 on heroes(without Aganhims) Skill Builds 1)Frost Nova 2)Brilliance Aura 3)Frost Nova 4)Frost Bite 5)Frost Nova 6)Freezing field 7)Frost Nova 8)Brilliance Aura 9)FrostBite 10)Brilliance Aura 11)Friezing Field 12)Brilliance Aura 13)FrostBite 14)Frostbite 15)Stats 16)Friezing Field 17-25)Stats Explanation Why? At first its personal choice why i put this build...i remind you that you can change the current build anytime you want!there is no guarantee that what i say fits in your gamestyle!i maximize Frost Nova and Brilliance aura first for spam and harass them on my opponents plus i get Friezing field anytime i can at 6-11-16 lvls where i am able to do so! Item Build!#1 A Reason is the damage you can deal! 2)Silence 3)Faerie fire(+20%damage)on enemies 4)Mana regeneration +225% 5)Bonus in team battles :) Good enough for CM as AoE slow can be crucial for team battles and especially for Freezing field Crystal Maiden without Aganhims Scepter doesnt exist,if exists its probably a noob :D Ideal For the stats and the improvisation of your Ulti(especially that) You get animation on your rod too :P Your Mana Pool affords easily Dagon for extra nukes,along with your disables it can be used greatly to cleave tons of hp from your foe This is a must imo because your MS is one from the lowest in game(280)! apart from the bonus speed you can get you can also move around map for gangs Since you are weak and easily killable you might think you should be protected for various reasons which include your survival in team battles,your perfection in acting your ulti without interruption and survive from attacks probably from lina,lion,zeus etc...mostly i take it in order to prevent spells on me when i attempt my ulti :) Item build #2 Reasons same as above Same as Above Same as above Cooldown of your ulti sucks,our Mana pool affords it so why not replaying with our Ulti? :D EXTRA Disable +stats HP,MP,fast revive,exp Alternatives For some HP heal if you have problems with hp For your escape...alternative it can be used to initiate your enemy and along with linken sphere you can start ulti in a team battle your team may be losing and you were not there in time Did i mention you die easy? This is a personal choice of me.Super Alternative indeed but yet again i advise you to take it and see the results for yourself.you ll remember Noble Instead of kelens dagger,reasons remain the same as kelens...kelen is just cheaper Rejected Items+Explanation Why Your skills do the same job so dont waste your money on the same things you can ALREADY perform Your skill can reduce AS/MS of your foes so dont waste your money on that Never Ever on Rylai Skadi is mostly taken when you need to make your enemy slower..you can already do it with your skills sobetter take Linkens LOL'D hard... ROFL'D harder than LoL Simply NO!!! you ll make your death quicker ehmmm no.just dont humiliate yourself by doing so :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreaM Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I have seen a rylai with MKB/BDK/AGHAS/SKADI/GUINSO/BOT And damn was he imba... anyway your guide is not bad tho i would prefer skadi than Linken because it gives a lot of hp/mp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morian Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Great guide NobLe! I prefer second item build without Bloodstone, but with lothars... Lothars - Freezing Field - Refresher Orb - Lothars - Freezing Field... PWNS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noble® Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 I have seen a rylai with MKB/BDK/AGHAS/SKADI/GUINSO/BOT And damn was he imba... anyway your guide is not bad tho i would prefer skadi than Linken because it gives a lot of hp/mp. since your damage is low mkb will only make you from weak-->medium as for skadi my opinion is that stats can be taken with linken too...auto slow skadi has is useless imo since you have 3 skills slowing and your mp capable of spamming it countless times though if you make a build based on your damage only then yes the build you mention could be of some use!but Rylai is a pure finisher not battle initiator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noble® Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 my note mentions that all my builds can change for gameplay issues you prefer not because i make one build it means that it should be your build too :D maybe i m the only one saying in notes ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotAbastard Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I think frost nova deals a 0.01 ministun so it's used to cancel other channeling spells like Sand King's, but I dunno... I know you can do it with lich but I dunno about others... Btw Noble, if you are still searching about eye of Skadi, here's a quote from Dota-allstars.com : On melee heroes, Eye of Skadi is an Orb Effect Buff Placer. On ranged heroes, Eye of Skadi is merely a Buff Placer, which means it might stack with some other Orb Effects. The Eye of Skadi will change to its ranged version when a ranged heroe picks it up, and to its melee version when a melee hero picks it up. That happens because they took the freeze effect from a dragon in WC3 campaign, I think Saphiron, but I'm not sure... And his attack was kind of buggy.
