Intelligence and regen so a caster gets one more rotation in lane.

How to actually use it

  1. 1

    You are buying mana pool

    WhyIntelligence, regen and a little HP — all of it is so you get one more rotation off.

    HowOne or two in lane, no more.

  2. 2

    Plan to sell it after the lane

    WhyA caster's slot is worth more than these stats later.

    HowSell it when Aghanim's or BKB needs the slot.

  3. 3

    It is not sustain

    WhyThe regen is slow. It will not keep your cast rate up.

    HowBuy the real regen item anyway.

When it is the right call

✓Yes, if…
  • You are a caster running out of mana in lane.
  • You need some HP against harassment.
  • You will sell it in the mid game.
✕No, if…
  • You are a physical core — that is a Wraith Band.
  • You already have reliable mana regen.
  • What you need is burst, not sustain.

Timing

In lane, 3–8 minutes.
