EPTIs there perhaps a "secret" build for this Hero, but you dont use it to often in fear of being tagged as "trash, noob, scrub" and whatever?
Feel free to explain in dept why you picked this specific hero/build.

In dota 1 I was a huge fan of Lanya, templar assassin. Her style of livin on the edge as well as her amazing map control made me a huge fan. I am looking forward to building her like I did in dota 1 with phase, medallion, bllink, bkb/desolator. She is a great mid-game ganker/counterganker and then becomes a badass assassin in late-game team fight. Bkb feels a little too good on her if you time your refraction well, it feels like you can stay in a fight forever. And nothing feels better than meld-dodging and refraction-dodging. The fact that she has a very high skill cap and that her team-fight presence is completely life-or-death based on your own skill, she is really rewarding to play and win with. I also feel she can work in a number of different lineups. Oh...and the mindgames. I love me some mindgames. In dota 2, I would have to say I enjoy drow the most right now. I just love orbwalking killing a lot of people. I generally build her treads, lothars, crit/bkb, then whatever I need to end the game. It is so much fun kiting people around and that AoE silence is so boss. You can also catch people off guard at night with ganks. Mostly in lower-skill games but abusing her great nightvision can net you some very early skills with a fellow dps-er. | ||

Hopefully he gets transferred into Dota2 soon. I normally play the standard build: phaseboots magic wand point booster Dagger Agha I think Drums is a good option on Panda too, if you are in a disadvantage and cant farm as fast as you would like to. His Ulti is just fun to play, if u have some micro and can use his spells. | ||

I find that phase boots are pretty awesome on her as well. My general build is phase - force staff -scythe. Orchid/Scythe is very much a matter of matchup/preference but I also like the full support build as well with mek ect. Her mobility is amazing as well. Overall, an amazing hero. I agree on wr beeing so versatile its fantastic :D I started playing her with forcestaff, but after a while realised i just dont need it. Getting some ekstra 250ish hitpoints and you surivie long enough to get away with windrun. (Or just windrun away from the inital danger anyways) Windrunner and the rod of atos ftw!  (Or straight to sheepstick if your farm is better than mine^^)Edit:Seems she's quite popular  | ||

Start with Frostbite, ring of basi and 2x mana potion. You just pull the big camps out, Frostbite the biggest creep, kill it, then rinse repeat for the rest. Quickly make a soul ring, level up aura twice, then go normal build and gank from there. | ||

Pick Lich (tango, health, mantle x2, iron branch x2) Solo mid. As soon as you hit 6 gank side lane then immediately return mid. Repeat when ult comes off cooldown Boots of travel Start roaming when you hit 11. Try to time it so your ult is off cool-down when you hit 11. Use map awareness to counter-gank + ult with boots of travel. | ||
