Medallion's gives mana regen, which slark needs, and a free -6 armor debuff because of dark pact. There's not a whole lot of sense in Armlet because of how fast the hero farms once he has a first mana item. Drums->straight major item like S&Y or BKB. They're stronger item timings than Armlet and because the hero farms so fast, you don't need to stop for a 2.5k gold item. | ||

you don't need BKB when you've got so many ways to get out of stuns or dodge abilities SnY is a waste compared to Skadi, Skadi serves him amazingly | ||

Slark with ShadowBlade Orchid is my favorite build. But I only have the luxury of building them when Im snowballed from the start. Otherwise, I claw my way to BKB SNY. | ||

Otherwise, I claw my way to BKB SNY. Pretty much my go to build as well. I actually think it's not bad if you're not doing so hot because Orchid has one of the best build-ups ever (tons of sub 1k gold pieces) so even if you do get killed you should be able to put it together. The utlity on it is also super nice for team fights as well as cornering someone alone. | ||

The utlity on it is also super nice for team fights as well as cornering someone alone. The problem is that while Orchid has good buildup, most of the Oblivion Staff stats are wasted, because after the first Robe of the Magi, none of the mana stats do you any good (with Treads swap and 1 Robe fo the Magi, you can basically flatline your mana even if you're using Dark Pact to farm--and just send a clarity if you're low mana after a kill). Particularly if you're getting Drums first, you don't need that much mana/regen. Two Oblivion Staves basically has the same usefulness to you as a Yasha. | ||

Perfect initiation tool, attack, latch, pact ulti and everyone die. The practical usefulness of that isn't that high. In gank/solo kill situation, you can just use the ulti to open anyway with 522 MS--for any hero that has an escape that requires you to open the gank/solo kill next to them, said escape breaks the Pounce tether anyway. For teamfights, you're not initiating because you're a carry with extremely low base stats. You generally need to pick your engagement quite carefully pre-BKB and you definitely almost never want to be the first one in. Lothar's is good on Slark because it gives cost-efficient damage stats and a second invis to give your ult usage some flexibility. It's not "broken" by any means. | ||
