Carry Dazzle. Treads, Vanguard/Mek, Deso/Orchid/Assault/HoT

I'd say my favorite hero with a more conventional build is Clockwork or Rexxar with the fastest Necromonicom you can manage. That or just a super fast Dagon.

Been playing enchantress recently. Here is how it goes
Boots->bracer->force->treads->aghanims (point booster first) and then shiva's if they are smart enough to try and kill me, or scythe if I am winning hard. I haven't tried orchid yet on her but it seems like a solid item if you want to just dps someone down.

Invoker, hands down.
For pubs, Quas Exort build with 1 point in Wex for quick double elementals and then depending on what your team needs, if the game is going well, just stack exort, if you need more cc, stack quas, if you really need that emp or alacrity, stack wex.
Items I usually do are basic drum and phase to guinsoo's. If I'm feeling particulary ballsy, necrobook is one of my favourite items on any hero that can use it well, and on invoker it's really good although pretty apm intensive.

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






Forcestaff can be used on team members, not only on you.
One forcestaff per team is pretty strong imo (Unless you try to push-win before minute 25-30) Also, you can position yourself a lot better for shackleshots with Forcestaff and still have one escape mechanism. Or push your carry out of enigma ult / over ledges / out of range for a follow-up stun / sprout / etc. / etc. / etc. Push enemy SK that activated ulti over a ledge.

Forcestaff has a million and two uses, I think if you know how to handle it and remember it at all times it can easily be the difference between a win and a loss.

Favourite:

WR: Phaseboots - Wand - Basilius(if you don't already have 2 or more) - Forcestaff - Hex
or as support
WR: Manaboots - Wand - Basi - Meka/Pipe (depending on the enemy damagetype) - Euls/Hex/Forcestaff and ofc wards+smokes+Dusts-if needed

Skills depend, If sololane I skill windrun once on lvl 1 then max powershot/shackle
If trilane - Max powershot/shackle no windrun till you start to roam/need it
if dual lane - like solo but windrun on lvl 2/4 depending on their go-potential

Ult always on 10/11, level 1 ulti with no extra damage from items is about as good as not skilling at all.

My most successful hero was Tinker with BoTravel, bottle, shivas, hex. Linkens and manta would be bonus after that.

Currently I'm infatuated with pudge, have played nothing but him for the last week or so.
