Pusher Enigma: solo lane -> max eidolons first -> deny erry day -> get basilius/mana boots/mekansm/blink/bkb/book/radiance in some order as deemed awesomest -> kill towers and win teamfights

I just love Enigma.
it's my first day

invoker, quas exort build, BoT oblivion staff if im going orchid later if not i get a blink then i finish orchid/get aghanims and then i get a hex if i need it(usually yes)
i love this build and i havent really seen anyone else use it in dota 2 and it wasnt that popular in dota 1 either, obviously the build sacrifices using emp/tornado but instead it gives you a perfectly positioned ice wall and a well placed meteor

Not really a build but more of a combo

SA+Dark seer or BH+Dark seer is highly entertaining in pubs.

the ginger, wind runner.

extremely versatile hero, can gank hard, awesome support in team fights, solo hard long lanes, hard to kill, semi carry (under various circumstances). She's also a strong pick in almost ANY lineup.

I like to play her:

Windrun first (I generally solo hard lane so I dont need early shakle for gank, I just need to survive some gimmicky first blood stuff)
Shackle Shot (again safety in solo hard lane)
Power Shot x3

Another fun pub-stomper is Sven with Bracerx2, MoM, BKB, Daedalus. Lastly, AC if the game goes on that long.

You attack so fast and you crit for ~1000. Combined with your cleave and AoE stun it is just ridiculous. I seriously think he might hit harder than any other hero in the game right now.

At the moment I'm really liking Windrunner, shes so versatile. I always go treads->force staff and then usually orchid->MKB, but there are so many builds. If I'm with friends I go Tranquil and Mek but that's not nearly as fun.


Threads and Forcestaff?

@Celerity: I absolutely love windrunner as well. 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




Force Staff is for positioning shackleshot, which is basically the reason to pick WR anyway.

Been also thinking about doing some sort of force staff + ethereal blade bloodseeker build, but haven't seen it in action and that item is REALLY expensive for what it is.

rupture is pure damage, which shouldnt be amplified by ethereal

Doombringer + Aghanim's.

Not really a build, but I love just tossing Doom on someone and then they're usually just flat-out dead without me ever touching them unless they're at max health or they get some heal off.

But the "theme" of the 1540 damage Doom is my niche.
