Arachne: "HoG? What is this shit"

Hey guys, this is a guide featuring Arachne the Spiderwoman. I will focus on my build und will try to explain the choice of items very well. Every match Im like 12:3 until the enemy team surrenders and i think without this build i wouldnt have that much success in killing enemies efficient and saving the lanes with ganks. I think everyone usually buied HoG with all junglers, but since it was nerved that much it isnr worth buying it. Especially with Arachne jungling without HoG is easy, too.

You need to know that this isnt a beginners guide, so I wont say much about how to play Arachne or whatever. Arachne players will know how to play.

At starting playing with Arachne i was totally bad and my ulti did never hit. I used skills in wrong order etc. etc. so I kept playing Arachne a long time and now I do very will with her.

Furtherall, theres one thing: I usually always buy HEARTSEEKER first, but i figured out jungling and trying to kill enemies is more efficient with the WARRIOR TABI, just because chasing is easier because of the speed and you do more damage.

So first buy your WARRIOR TABI lvl 2 and 3 health pots.

Then its on you how you feel to buy first THE EXECUTIONER or HEARTSEEKER. I also try to buy PURIFICATION BEADS if theres 500g for it (Very important against Hades, Anubis etc.)

Usually I buied SOUL EATER, but i think ANKH OF THE GOLEM is now a better choice. The Lifesteal helps you in 1on1 fights and the other stuff is also useful.

Now choose if you want to go for the DEATHBRINGER or QUIN BLADES. I just look up my gold and i have the money for DEATHBRINGER lvl 3 i buy it first.

Important: Many people still buy FROSTBOUND HAMMER if they play junglers. 1. With arachne theres absolutely no need because of your ALL your abilities. 2. Buying a CREEPING CURSE for only 500g and saving an item slot is much more effective.

Try to buy your items fast because you need the time to put your eggs.

EARLY GAME:
Counter jungling on right lane is possible, but I prefer the left lane. Go straight to the Blue buff and put an egg in front of the corner. Then go back and put 3 eggs inside the Blue to get it easily (You also can put 4-5 eggs inside to let the little spider do it solo, but I think its better to play safe if the enemies want to invade).
After that go for yellow and green. I usually start a gank at left lane now with my premade and often we killed one or both enemies or they need to recall. Then go for red (additional white and orange). Keep ganking and jungling.

MID GAME:
Get Gold Fury and Fire Giant as fast as you can, get the stacks for your HEARTSEEKER in grabing the buffs, if a gank is needed just go for it.

LATE GAME:
I think now its more effective to stay with your team and try to pull enemies to them so they easily can kill them.

Try first to hit the enemy 3 times (because of Arachnes passive). Then its about to situation if you use your 2, your pull, your 3 or whatever. I cant give you a straight order to use the skills in, it just belongs to the situation.

If the enemies try to invade your Blue and your spiders attack them, go attack too, they are slowed and get lot of damage so you can get an easy kill just before the game starts ;)

Stay fresh
