New KT or not?
Looks like she's able to deal massive amounts of damage and in right hands she can devastate teams thanks to "streaky" nature of her trait.
Just had a game with double Li Ming and other squishies and everything blows up pretty hastily. She also has good poke, I'd say better than KT's.
I'd say heroes like this make meta more boring because it's just all poke and ranged damage, no space for melees at all.

that's what bans are for and melees are only viable with strong support behind them, something you can't count on in your average QM or HL prolly strongest hero in the game with the right pilot...on the other hand, excellent target for buffed Butcher

Well I think KT's kit is still more versatile because of stun and aoe ult.

What's the best build for her? I currently try orb, but I heard people go full defensive on her, but she can poke from safe range, why would you want it?

I always build her according to the occassion
on 1 I usually go for astral presence or globes, don't see much value from aether walker even in a full tp build and I don't like spell shield 'cause you can easily tp out of trouble and Nova is useless; often take it in mirrors though (could be good against Stitches though, you can never be too safe against his hooks)
on 4 dominance is great if your healer sux, orb is nice if your tanks suck, but in seruious play, charged blast is predominant -> free dmg ('cause mana is important)
on 7 I prefer Calamity, gives you great waveclear, Seeker is nice if you can ensure lockdown, and very few players like orb talent
on 13 Glass Cannon or Illusionist, usually you only take GC if you'll never ever be focused
on 16 diamond skin is great, if you don't need it Mirrorball is predominant choice orb could be good I guess, fireflies are prolly too mana intensive (and even with Seeker, 2 extra missilies from mirrorball are just more value)
on 20 ult upgrades are great, TR elements gives extra damage and Archon is super fun and can be invaluable if your opps lack dive (I once single-handedly dismantled a team of KT, Zagara, Abatur, Uther, Raynor -I think, it was QM quite some time ago)

Idk missiles feel kinda weak...
Btw lvl 4 charged blast does apply to anyone's auto attack or just yours?

Here's my build: www.heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/li-ming#gpZlBasically stay as far as possible and throw orbs, if they hit you're gucci, if not - try again! Very hilarious and safe build, you don't need any protection because you're never in danger and if they catch you you're dead anyway. I'd take lvl 1 spell shield against Li Ming or Nova or if you feel like you need it. The protective build is good against dive but I don't think they can dive me from that far w/o sacrificing a lot.
