These are called negative effects, not crowd control. Crowd control is an attack that hits multiple enemies. For example, Reim's ultimate, or Celeste's, or even Catherine's silence. That being said, good info covered.

I just became PoA as well. However, this is an amazing guide! Though some people say it's common sense, it brings up a lot of good points - and most people don't follow them yet. Definitely could be featured if attention was brought to it.

Good guide, would like to see the finished version. One or two suggestions though. First, find a different text setting - it's a little... loud? I don't know the word. Second, you don't have to have a roamer. Just have someone grab a fountain and war boots, and an atlas and crucible situationally (it doesn't have to be the same person). Other than that, it has good info.

Not that this will be seen. But, for those commenting in 2016, this is COMPLETELY OUTDATED. The guide was created in May of 2015. That was back when ironguard costed 250. Back when those heros in the threat bar was pretty much the extent of the heroes. It's not recent.

Great guide, worked out well for me. I hadn't really done CP krul in just short of a year (since I suck at krul), so I was suprised when it worked. That being said, it'd be nice if one or two things were changed. First of all, it would help a lot if the hero threat descriptions also told how to deal with that hero (again, I suck at krul). Also, a short description of hero synergies would be nice. Last thing - just wondering if you know how to make tables, hyperlinks, etc. If you don't want...

Since people still seem to be commenting, I will to. It's an overall good guide, but I'd make a few changes given the recent update. First of all, change journey boots to halcyon chargers so you have some energy. Also, replace serpents mask for tyrants monacle for extra damage in the glimmershots.

Pretty stereotypical krul build, but this is the best way to play him. Great explanations and hero threat ratings. One question though - why would broken myth be a good 6th item to pick up? Assuming the enemy have all picked up an aegis for your crystal carry, would a shatterglass or broken myth be better? Kind of a specific question, sorry.

Well, I remember builds like this working at the lower levels. However, anyone past tier 6 or so will atlas pauldron you and kite you to hell and back. It really isn't an amazing 3v1, or even 2v1 build, since the lack of defense will let them burst you down easily. As for 1v1s, it works for melee heroes, not including Taka. He can get off half your health in 3 seconds, and then disappear until he can do it again. Overall, not a bad guide - I'll see how it works on my second account.

Sorry about the response time, I had a lot come up. First of all, thanks for the input - I really appreciate it. I have to disagree with you on Rona - her damage is still underpowered this update, and her extra fortified health doesn't help her a whole lot. On the other hand, crystal Saw is a very big threat, I'll be adding that in. Looking back at this guide, I see some mistakes that I'm going to clean up, as well as reworking the hero threats, updating for 1.20 (and 1.21 if it's out...

Works at the lower tiers. Taka kinda gets completely countered when you get above tier 6 though, especially cp - haven't been able to use him in a few months.
