HARLEY an ASSASSIN?

izaidi

How do you play harley? I play harley like I play an assassins. His 2nd skills makes for easy poke and run tactic.
All his skills don't have much CC unlike most mages.
He is very fast. Combine with CD reduction item makes harley very anoying.
He lacks AOE skills. His 1st skills can be considered an AOE, but not really.



These attributes are more like an assassins rather then a mage. I copy some of the top 10 global harley item build and I also try my own standard mage item build. Everytime I play harley, I just can't play him like a standard mage. He is too much of an assassins.

But everytime I pick Harley when there's already a mage in my team..teammates always point out "2 mage?". But they never question me when I pick karina. Harley is like a range attack karina.

With his fast cd skills, he can be like Hayabusa w/ the teleport and stuffs. But, what's so bad with Harley is that he's only good in early games and bad in late games.

He is not a team fight-oriented mage.

So TS is right in one point, he is like an assassin as he can easily surprise and delete squishy heroes, even in late game. His weakness is that of an assassin's weakness, lack of cc and aoe damage.
His strength is that of an assassin as well, it is so easy for him to get in and out.

He's like the mage version of Hayabusa but without immune. He is much more like an assassin than Lancelot is.

Karina is as assassin with magic skills.
I don't neccesssarily wants to change him into assassin. I just want to know that people recognize him as an assassins too. Instead of mentioning stupid things like "2 mages?" whenever I pick Harley.

Funny fact, he fits the assasin role more than fanny, zilong, alucard lmao

Assassins have good AoE waveclear... Harley doesn't.
But yeah, I also consider him as an assassin. Most people dont.
