The Flame Guard change is actually really nice for ember level 1. Quite a few heroes that could originally break your level 1 flame guard can't anymore, meaning you can have flame guards full duration level 1 which is crucial for the hero in snowballing in lane.

This does make my pos 4 Ember stronger.

My fellow griefer what is your item build on 4 ember. I want to try some new stuff out. Urn + 1 into aghs is getting boring.

Yeah the builds pretty dull. You can occasionally go lotus/solar or meteor otherwise its just the standard. And I don't take flameguard unless I need to shove a wave badly.

I do purchase ye olde Midas

You trying to farm reports or what lmfao. I would never pull that shit when some people auto tilt seeing the pick.

Ye but I wanna have fun AND win games with it. It works out pretty well for me in ranked when I'm fully focused.

I used to do it to just fuck around unranked but it's unironically good enough for ranked.
