Wraith king with MoM

Is it just me or does the reworked mask of madness work really well with wraith king? I haven't had a chance to really test it (finals) but I figure you go MoM in to blink. MoM helps you farm a bit faster, and then you can gank by blink --> stun --> mask. It's not like the silence really bothers him, and AC would be an easy follow up. Thoughts?

Great item on WK in my opinion. take the lvl 25 +20% vamp aura for epic lifesteal. you'll be like a raid boss.

I think it's a bit redundant. He already has LS, his armor isn't that good and there are better alternatives such as Armlet or Echo Sabre.

I've seen that it might be good on a Sven for similar reasons but less redundant as he needs a lifesteal item now that HotD isn't one.

I really don't think Sven is that reliant on a lifesteal item, HOD was bought because it was basically free due to the gold gain of clearing two odd quad ancient stacks.

Not that reliant but he needs it to be able to farm camps. Also he doesn't lack armour either, unlike most strength heroes.

The -armor should be a pretty big deal on Skeleton King. He has pretty shitty armor. Armlet would somewhat offset this but I feel like you risk up just getting right clicked down by the opponents.

First 3 items should easily be Armlet, MoM and Blink (no specific order). Does make the BKB come out a bit later which is an issue. Also would leave you super vulnerable to physical damage until you get AC. SkK isn't the fastest farmer so I feel that AC is quite a bit away.

Don't really know if it's a good item on him. I don't realy play SkK regularly but feel Echo Sabre would just be a lot more effective.
