    I didnt want to add too many curses because curse is the "anti-character" item, and it seems I missed slowing hex for Shiv and Dynamo

    Number 1 thing i am learning from this video is that slowing hex and dispel magic are goated

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re9kWOCJXMY&amp;t=204">3:24</a> small tip that i wanted to add on, that none of my teammates seem to understand, is that slowing hex is a pretty good counter to calico, given that it shuts down 3/4 of her abilities, and is only 1.6k

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re9kWOCJXMY&amp;t=883">14:43</a> Big asterisk on the &quot;metal skin to Venator ult&quot; since his blessed shots do go through due to its pure damage (You can even notice in the clip when it goes from a purple aura to white aura). And due his ult having an execution, it won&apos;t save you if you pop metal skin while low. Although he technically only has a blessed shot on his third one on basekit, the T3 ult gives him all three blessed, and do note T3 ult is what Ven builds speedrun right after T2 gutshot.

Aegis plays a clean stream instead of YouTube's player, so pre-roll ads, trackers, and fingerprinting never ride along. Drop Shields any time if you want the official player back.
