    it used to be phase boots but the meta is now treads, the stats give dmg and their respective bonuses

    Hey immortal rank 2800 LD player here.

    Threads are better in easy games. Phase in hard ones. If they have strong LD counters, high damage long range heroes like drow, you need phase to catch and survive.

    If they don’t have those heroes, and the game is looking easy, treads are stronger.

    Since the meta changed, most of the time I build treads into diffusal (sometimes with orb of corrosion) should be for a root proc, and you are most likely to get diffusal sub 12 mins. I do consider phase boots when; facing heroes such as jug who dispels the root, armor is needed to tank some hits, laning with not so impactful support such as zeus who doesn’t land a hook who does not have stun or slow.
