Actually i don't play drow at all. So no, i don't know what is the most efficient/best build to start with. But when i have played her few times, i've either gone straight to the aura or taken stats with frost arrow and aura later on.

Yeah, but the patch notes don't mention removing the possibility to toggle. It was mentioned in the previous one when it was added, after the rework, but 6.77 only mentions the change on the radius for creeps. The skill description still says you can toggle it, from what I hear, so that is also outdated. I would even think it was just a bug if it wasn't removed as well in WC3, but it seems it's just a stealth nerf.
It's not often that PlayDota is wrong on these things, it's ussually pretty reliable.

her silence and frost arrows are really bullshit, dno why you would take aura over that.

Frost arrows are bullshit for drow, aura is bullshit for all ranged heroes

only at higher levels, not in laning phase.

impossible, if you just fail 1 bit of static farm which you will with the aura, the double range creep easily out damage your last hit range. i played a game with drow yesterday thought i could turn it off and its impossible to farm before level 6. Today i saved skill point and things turned much better.
also, i take aura bc i love the damage  Them tower melting. (plus furion and invoker team xD). Pretty much the 2nd game of drow since patch so i dont care a lot.

Going stats + aura build gives you insane dps in early-mid game, consequently improves your farm speed and makes you more tanky at the same time. This leads to a smooth mid-late game transition and makes Drow snowball out of control.
Ice Arrow + Shadow Blade build is fun in pubs though.

He earned much praise on yesterday's Saga stream, seems to be a cool fellow.

joke aside he seemed like a genuine nice guy. I remember how he said after his dreamhack victory that the biggest thank goes to dendi for supporting him and getting him into the competitive scene.

Potm build, you say? Ranged agility hero that wants to rightclick -> best build is tranquils, aquila, drums. Can't go wrong with that, drums and tranquils are by far the most overpowered items this version.
On second thought, phase are probably better... Aquila would be good for a more farming potm. tranquil not bad at all since she has awful staying power in lane past initial regen. just expect to do much less right click damage
Clearly best build for kitty meow meow is Euls and then Blink Dagger. Certified Fresh.

And Dota2 works again. Restarting steam did the trick as usual.
