You should have put poitns into boulders. Also, what was Erebus doing to you? Would he run in or Bat in? Would be bite then stun or the opposite?

Maybe you should have boldered, then fed off one of your towers, then kept on attaching him, repeate. Gotta wear him down. If he starts to get low and you are ok on health maybe save a boulder for when he's at like 1/4 his health so you can maybe finish him before he bats away or uses bite again.

P.S. maybe a minion build is the counter to tower rook /shrug. Erebus's minions are really weak though.

probably has alot to do with equipment choices. Erebus can gain immense survivability by taking mostly Armor equipment, since his Bite ability naturally restores a pretty large amount of health. Rook is particularly weak against this since his towers, regular attacks, and shoulder turrets are all mitigated by armor. 

As an avid Erebus player, Rook, is usually an easy target for me to get to and slaughter.

I'm making assumptions, since I don't know both your builds and exactly what happened but....

Erebus has nightwalkers, which can be upgraded to have added health and damage, so he could have them either maul towers and draw damage while Erebus focuses on you, or have them attack you as well for added dps.

Plus, he can teleport past your tower line to get to you behind it, teleport out of range of towers after attacking you, and teleport to catch up to your immensley slow ass if you try to run away. Also, bite slows you down and removes armor.

At level 10, I'm assuming he had max bite, which means he was draining 900 health everytime he bit you, might of had an item that gave him lifesteal or lots of hps. Or, used a Potion or 2.

In my experience, and this is something that I guess generally works for everyone, to win a 1v1 battle when I'm Erebus, the other Demigod either has to be able to outdamage me so I run away first so I don't die(UB or TB sometimes), or he has to have so much health and healing ability he outlasts me (Sedna and QoT, Oak too)

With the build I use, by level 10 I have like 10 nightwalkers, max bite, +15 hps from poisoned blood, a teleport that does damage, and a small stun. Plus, with the way I get my items, usually have basically unlimited pool of mana at that point as well.

Plus, his stun can stop your hammer slam and also stop you from Tele-Scrolling to safety. I love doing that lol.

If cards are played right and I'm able to save gold up or get some early kills, I can get mage slayer that give me +45 damage, increased attack speed and like 12% lifesteal by level 10 as well.

A well played, leveled, and equipped Erebus can usually beat a rook 1v1 because I've got a lot of tools, and the fight doesn't end until I leave or refuse to chase you past some towers.

Tower's tend to not do much dmg late game. You know you can actually select them and make them target something? I found this out...helps a lot.

Playing a tower rook, you can't afford to let your enemy get too far ahead. If he stacks armor, those tower shots tend to hurt a lot less....my 2 cents.

Oh wow, have fun playing against DGs without boulder or hammer.

Instead of parading around this thread like some giant ass why don't you try to offer the OP some help on how to play a better rook instead of seemingly headhunting for someone's post to point out any flaws or something you think they left out?

The OP said he's never played as Erebus, so I was trying to offer some insight about how "I" (not grandmaster-apparently-all-knowing-Extacide) usually play against a Rook, and how I think he may be being beaten.

Instead of everything I wrote, why don't I go back to edit and rewrite it to say "Welp, he was playing a better Erebus than you you were playing Rook. L2P Loser!" Would that help him at all?

Also, you assume that the OP is playing a style which you call a "Smart Rook". Maybe he's not, according to you at least. We can sit here all day and go back and forth about how Erebus will win in this situation if he does this and Rook will win in this situation if he does this, which is a waste of time.

So, I'm sure the OP will find your posts much more interesting if you stopped "pointing out the flaws" in other people's builds and logic and give him some advice about how you would play a Smart Rook versus Erebus, what you think? Otherwise you look like you're just on these forums to bash people you think are wrong by being rude and insulting people to get into silly childish arguments on the internet. Go play Xbox.

I'd give advice on Rook, but that'd be going too far into my personal playstyle and my attempt at staying unique. At the same time, I'm a forum whore.

lol, it's all good homey.

Hey there wwwolf123

I got exactly the same problem as you with Rook vs Erebus.

I tried the Boulder roll against him and it didnt go very will even with 2 towers and about 8 Rook towers around me.

I have also tried the Hammer, but since its so slow he will notice it and will move or bite me to avoid it. Trying to trick him with the hammer will just result in a bite and add more time before you can use it again.

So i simply dont see a counter for the erebus, will keeping an eye on this thread if someone finds a way

Thats one way of putting it when you dont know how
