This quest works in Co-Op bot matches, that means you may merely choose Terrorblade, CK, PL or Naga and be completed with it in a single sport. The rationale we’d advise going this route is easy: with the quantity of Leshrac and Pudge pickers within the sport proper now, taking part in an phantasm hero will be fairly problematic in regular pubs.
That mentioned, this quest is extraordinarily simple to finish in a single sport even if you happen to lose, so relying on how a lot you might be prepared to danger it, it won’t be the worst concept. Naga Siren is by far essentially the most profitable Phantasm hero within the meta proper now, with a Manta Fashion, into Orchid, into Coronary heart merchandise development, with Mage Slayer into Bloodthron construct up afterward.
This can in all probability take a while to finish, however it may be completed in Co-Op bot matches, so it isn’t onerous, simply time-consuming. Slardar might be your finest guess, since he has a “25% probability bash”, sort of.
There are additionally Spirit Breaker and Faceless Void, however for some motive Faceless Void generally doesn’t depend in the direction of this tracker. His Aghanim’s Time Stroll improve can be inconsistent, presumably for a similar motive.
We’d advise going the Slardar route and easily taking part in a few Bot matches. You may truly construct Manta Fashion on the hero as effectively and it’ll progress you thru the Phantasm quest as effectively.
This one doesn’t want a devoted technique to work and will simply occur naturally in successful video games. Additionally it is Co-Op bot match-completable, however beware that bots actually love their runes for some motive. It is a truth that may and ought to be abused for different quests.

The very best hero for Diretide proper now appears to be Spectre, who doesn’t even must get off her snowball to be efficient. It’s actually onerous to attach successful from Silver Edge on a snowballing Spectre, whereas killing her with out break will be fairly problematic.
Most significantly, she will be able to nearly all the time be a part of a battle, nobody will thoughts if she simply farms Neutrals and her late-game prowess is immense. Choose Spectre, get in your snowball, construct Radiance and Blade Mail, skipping boots and you may be high-quality.
