User blog comment:Krufix/Dota2 - Is it REALLY so much harder than LoL?/@comment-110.93.94.172-20130121140828/@comment-89.80.9.19-20130123011610

His name is Harbinger, commonly named Destro (which is a contraction of Outworld Destroyer), I just wanted to be certain you remember him ;)

Yes, intellligence based heroes gain 1 damage / 1 intel. That doesn't mean they are attack based. Like I said, only two out of 39 intel heros will be efficient at hitting. To be sure you understand -> Janna also gain damage per level. And so what? Is that her main purpose? Nop. She will land tornados, shield her carry, slow the opponents and save her team with ulti. STILL, she gained damages per level. So, I guess Janna is an attack based hero? Come on, kick off your brain.

Not to mention that, very few intelligence heroes will go intelligence items. They will probably go meka (armor + heal aura), jango (strengh + As/Ms aura), and whatever support item they need. EVEN if they get some intelligence item (like hex), they wont bother hitting you more than twice, with so much lack of attack speed that it will be ridiculous.

Your exemple is the same as "Taric went Will of the Ancients (for his team), he's totally an AP carry"...
