There are unhealthy, statistically game-losing Aspects and there are “unhealthy” hero Aspects. Those that obtain mockery, whereas technically being respectable in some eventualities. In the present day we’re going to go over aspects that we really feel get underserved hate and analyse how and when they are often the higher possibility.
Reverse Polarity pushes enemies away throughout Magnus as an alternative of pulling enemies which can be in entrance of him.
Defending this aspect is trivial. Base stats alone are already fairly a profit, with a 20-second decrease cooldown and a ~60% bigger AoE on a BKB-piercing 3-second disable. Is it anti-synergetic to the remainder of the Magnus’ package? Sure, if you’re taking part in a right-clicking, damage-dealing Magnus. In case you are all about utility, there are quite a lot of issues to contemplate.
To start with, the Skewer-back combo is kind of the identical, if a single goal is worried. Numerous the time a single pick-off is what Magnus is fishing for, so a Blink-Skewer doesn’t actually lose potential in a coordinated sport. Blink into Horn Toss into Skewer can be untouched, for if you want an additional setup.
Secondly, simply by default, RRP is healthier at defending your ranged teammates. Simply blinking on high of them after they have been initiated on will give quite a lot of respiration room to your carry. You may even observe up with a Skewer to get a problematic goal as distant as doable, coping with smaller threats first.
There may be additionally the query of save gadgets and talents. 
Lifestealer desires to infest a teammate? Too unhealthy, the teammate is now ~1700 vary away. 
Io desires to relocate someone out of a foul spot or Mekansm double-heal? Properly, the Tether is now damaged and so they can’t. 
Abaddon simply used their Aghanim’s final? Allow them to waste it in a quiet nook, when you kill their teammates, who are actually 900+ vary away from the hero.
This additionally applies to all of the 
Glimmer Capes, 
Pressure Staffs and 
Wind Wakers that all of the sudden can’t be utilized by the helps, except they’ve a 
Blink Dagger or a number of sources of solid vary enhance.
The tip outcome, in our opinion, is an undoubtedly area of interest, however highly effective device towards lineups which have a number of saving talents and potent AoE therapeutic. Additionally it is fairly nice when defending glass cannon-type heroes in your crew and when your crew is missing AoE harm and is healthier off killing enemy heroes one-by-one in isolation.
Chronosphere is changed by an impact that dramatically slows down enemies and quickens allies in an space.
It’s a lot tougher to argue towards what’s probably one of many strongest crowd-control talents within the sport. Time Zone does have a 30-second decrease cooldown and an even bigger AoE, however it’s no Chronosphere. That mentioned, we really feel like in lots of matchups it may not matter as a lot.
The large one is that the enemy will get to press BKB and different save gadgets to disregard the impact. Essentially the most problematic one is Wind Waker, which permits a goal to get from the centre of the Time Zone to the sting of it, whereas being invulnerable.
Equally, gadgets like 
Satanic totally work, permitting enemy carries to lifesteal and doubtlessly survive via the power, the place in any other case they’d die. That is relating to late-game eventualities. Early on, although, there are undoubtedly some promoting factors going the way in which of Time Zone, which stats-wise is just ~0.8% behind the Chronosphere by way of Win Fee.
To start with, Void will get additional +70/110/150 additional Assault Velocity within the Time Zone. The extent two Time Zone AS enhance is equal to a 
Masks of Insanity and even stage one AS enhance is much from trivial. To know it higher, have a learn via one in every of our earlier posts, which explains the connection between Injury, AS and DPS.
In brief, early sport solo-kill potential with a well-placed Time Zone could be greater than with a Chronosphere, as the additional length and the additional AS can provide Faceless Void sufficient further whole harm to complete off a goal. It’s at its finest when coping with heroes who depend on mobility, fairly than crowd management, for security. So heroes like 
Queen of Ache, 
Ember Spirit, 
Void Spirit and many others. could be actually punished early on. Additionally it is unlikely they’ll have a 
Eul’s Scepter of Divinity as their first merchandise, not to mention a Wind Waker.
That is with out the potential contribution from teammates, who can freely stroll into the Time Zone and now have elevated stats, most notably the Forged Velocity. 
Shadow Fiend’s Requiem and even 
Sand King’s Epicentre change into virtually instantaneous contained in the Time Zone, making it an incredible setup for in any other case hard-to-land-in-the-fight talents. One shouldn’t underestimate the AS differential contained in the Time Zone both: with the extent 20 expertise Faceless Void good points +230 AS, whereas lowering the enemy AS by the identical worth.
It’s inconceivable for the enemy crew to combat contained in the Time Zone, very similar to it’s inconceivable for them to combat inside Chronosphere. Whereas there’s undoubtedly much more counter-play potential, as Time Zone isn’t a full disable, the additional length and the AS/Forged Velocity differential it creates could be considerably stronger teamfight-wise, particularly if Void isn’t taking part in in a 4+1 lineup.
Maybe going for a Injury farming merchandise in 
Battle Fury, versus the same old 
Maelstrom and Masks of Insanity can be a good thought for DPS and farm velocity maximisation causes. The traditional construct offers ~15% extra harm over the length of the Time Zone, however it additionally prices ~25% extra. Furthermore, it’s doable to disassemble Masks of Insanity to get one of many Battle Fury elements, which permits for a reasonably neat merchandise development.
Alternatively, since Wind Waker is a large drawback, there’s an argument to be made about 
Radiance for farming early on. It may be later disassembled into elements for 
Nullifier and 
Butterfly, whereas being a good acceleration merchandise and a reasonably good teamfight merchandise for the sooner phases of the sport. It is vitally unconventional and we by no means examined it ourselves, however it does make some sense in concept, so if you’re courageous sufficient to strive it in follow — go away us a remark about the way it went.
