Itemization Strategy

Impact and Sustainability! Loved by several magic type cores this spell is their walking fountain companion, tho it doesn't really walk but the benifits are pretty much the same. A post laning to mid game item timing that could be deadly the earlier you can build it. Heroes that benefit more on it are the high magical burst one's, specially on pubs.

Trivia

When Bloodstone was initially introduced in Dota 2, it had a different set of mechanics compared to its current iteration. Initially, it required a Soul Booster, Perseverance, and a Recipe to be crafted. The item's primary function revolved around granting increased health, mana regeneration, and a charge-based system that reduced respawn time upon death on it's earlier versions.
