    BIO
    It's said that a centaur's road is paved with the corpses of the fallen. For the one called Warrunner, it has been a long road indeed. To outsiders, the four-legged clans of Druud are often mistaken for simple, brutish creatures. Their language has no written form; their culture lacks pictographic traditions, structured music, formalized religion. For centaurs, combat is the perfect articulation of thought, the highest expression of self. If killing is an art among centaurs, then Bradwarden the Warrunner is their greatest artist. He rose to dominance on the proving grounds of Omexe, an ancient arena where centaur clans have for millennia gathered to perform their gladiatorial rites. As his fame spread, spectators came from far and wide to see the great centaur in action. Always the first to step into the arena, and the last to leave, he composes a masterpiece in each guttering spray, each thrust of blood-slickened blade-length. It is the poetry of blood on steel, flung in complex patterns across the pale sands of the killing floor.

    Warrunner defeated warrior after warrior, until the arena boomed with the cheering of his name, and he found himself alone, the uncontested champion of his kind. The great belt of Omexe was bestowed, wrapped around his broad torso, but in his victory, the death-artist found only emptiness. For what is a warrior without a challenge? The great centaur galloped out of Omexe that day with a new goal. To his people, Warrunner is the greatest warrior to ever step into the arena. Now he has set out to prove he is the greatest fighter who has ever lived.

    SKILLBUILD


    Dota 2 - Centaur Build Guide


    Level 1: Hoof Stomp
    Level 2: Double Edge
    Level 3: Hoof Stomp
    Level 4: Return
    Level 5: Hoof Stomp
    Level 6: Stampede
    Level 7: Hoof Stomp
    Level 8: Double Edge
    Level 9 : Double Edge
    Level 10: Double Edge
    Level 11: Stampede
    Level 12: Return
    Level 13: Return
    Level 14: Return
    Level 15: Stat
    Level 16: Stampede
    Level 17-25: Stats

    Why Hoof Stomp should be maxed first? This is your main ability, you need to stun your enemy to start the teamfight. You also can use this skill for defensive purpuse so that you can save lifes.

    Why Double Edge before Return? You need nukes in early games. Nukes will rech its maximum potential in early game where enemy's HP is still low. And return will rech its maximum potential in late game when your strength is already high, so no need to take Return in early game. One level of Return is enough for early game.

    STRATEGIES
    Early game
    If your partner in line is not a carry, or if he is stupid, then you need to try to lasthit the creeps. You need gold too. If you feel need to kill the enemy, then, go to them and use Hoofstomp to them and then Double Edge and right click while your partner also use his skills.

    Beware of enemy's gank attempt. You must see the fog area by using Wards. Retreat to your tower if you see the enemy that coming to you.

    Mid Game 
    Mid game is the time for ganking and finding weak opponent to kill. You need to see the minimap and find the alone opponent. So you can surprise gank him from the jungle.

    Ask your friend to gank together with you. In the gank, you need to  focus fire on one target. So communicate it with your friend. Choose the easiest target to start with.

    You may also needs dust to reveal some invisible hero like rikimaru or Nyx.

    After you come out of the jungle, immediately use Stampede and go Hoofstomp to stun the enemy, and then double edge and right click, your friends should also use his skills after the enemys is stunned. You should dominate the mid game that will means easier late game and more chance to win the teamfight.

    Dota 2 - Centaur Build Guide

    Late Game
    Your part is still the same, taht is to initiate the teamfight. You need to Stampede so that you and your teammate get attack speed to bump into the enemies so the enemies can be stunned before the teamfight. And then you should Hoofstomp to stun the enemies for longer time. And then use double edge after it, and if you have Blade mail use that too. Here in late game, I believe that  your STR is already very high so you can tank damages and return some damages to hurts the enemy itself.

    And if your team won the teamfight, you have two options:
    1. You can get the Aegis for your team's main hero or
    2. Your team can push enemy base and destrouy their buildings. Choose wisely!
