Ownage from early to late - A brief Guide FTW

Basics:


alt

Some stats at the begin are needed to cast ChaosBolt which is your key skill for the win. Thats why we buy this stuff (picture). Additionally purchase Quelling Blade to have an easier farming time


Skills

  1. Chaosbolt
  2. Critical Strike
  3. Chaosbolt
  4. Blink Strike/Critical Strike
  5. Chaosbolt
  6. Blink Strike
  7. Chaosbolt
  8. Critical Strike/Blink Strike
  9. Critical Strike
  10. Blink Strike
  11. Blink Strike/Critical Strike
  12. Critical Strike
  13. Phantasm
  14. Phantasm
  15. Stats
  16. Phantasm
  17. - 25. Stats

    NOTE: If you have hard problems in early game swap 4. 8.and 9.. to have a faster escape. It's also useful for ganks to reach enemys immediatly. Ultimate is rather needed in mid-late game than in early. Besides the more items you get the more powerful the Illusions are. Chaosbolt + Blink Strike costs enough mana on its own to spam in ambushes. Phantasm leaks too much mana in early which disables you the opportunity to catch enemys with your stun and frightens them. Vs heros like furion who catch you already at begin skill Blink Strike at level 2.




    1. Item Build

      Purchase this stuff ftw

      • Ring of Health
      • Void Stone
      • Boots of Speed
      • Ring of Basilus (optional)
      • Claymore
      • Helmet of Iron Will
      • Broadsword
      • Mask of Death
      • Gauntlets of Strenght + Bracer Recipe
      • Gloves of Haste + Belt of Strenght + Power Treats Recipe for Attack Speed / Boots Of Travel� to help allys and better farm
      • Reaver + Satanic Recipe or optional get Vladimirs Offering Recipe + Ring of Regeneration� if you want another Orb (e.g Diffusal Blade) and Armlet Recipe + Gloves of haste + Blades of Attack� by disassembling your Helm of Dominator in the Circle of Power.

        Imo since Satanic got updated it is quite more powerful for lategame than Vlads is. NOTE: Armlet costs you 35hp/sec and is really expensive( 950 + 500 +500 +900 =2850). Thats why I prefer Satanic. NOTE: Battlefury and BoT are the essentiel KEY-items to farm for fame :). Battlefury already grants +65 damage which is enough for high crits. As last power item after HoT I would purchase Armlet.

If you came so far you already have been really sucessful. Replace the tp, quelling blade and the bracer now with Heart of Tarrasque (or Black King bar vs many Disablers), Butterfly (or Assault Cuirass to support team) and as finally item Monkey King Bar vs Dodge Heros (or Armlet refering to your flavor/taste).

Gameplay


If you play Nessaj MID solo purchase a chicken and NOT Circlet of power and mana potion to support yourself. CK has really high base damage meaning you can harras other melee heroes by hitting them once every few secs. Else stay more defensive. If you cant farm much money at once I recommend the cheaper optional 1st way of itembuild. Armlet is really popular with his damage boost but you almost get a half HoT for it.

Do NOT be too aggressive in early. Ofc use your chances. A gank must to be used. If you are harrased in early try to get some Level to avenge you later. Your main goal is to get farm and ganks to develop him to the greatest Carry in DotA history. Four times 100% damage even fucks Terrorblade or Mortred within seconds.In mid and late game Chaos knight breaks tower like Ezalor kills creeps with his wave.� Nessaj is really useful while pushing and in combination with another Stunner like Windrunner, Alche or Dragon Knight. He s both TANK AND DAMAGE DEALER.� He crits enemys away. Cleave grants you unbalanced farming and Triple Kills if enemys stick togheter. Practice Practice Practice and you will be feared soon by your opponents with your King.

There are always alternitives of playing a hero. I just want to give some advices and share my experience with you. I would be really happy about positive feedback. You can also be the opinion that CK alrdy has enough attack speed, then get Boots Of Travel to help your allys just in time. Here we go some variations:
