BIO
He that burns and is not consumed, devours and is never sated, kills and is beyond all judgment-Lucifer brings doom to all who would stand against him. Bearing away souls on the tip of a fiery sword, he is the Fallen One, a once-favored general from the realm behind the light, cast out for the sin of defiance: he would not kneel.

Six times his name was tolled from the great bell of Vashundol. Six and sixty times his wings were branded, until only smoking stumps remained. Without wings, he slipped loose from the tethers that bound him within the light and he fell screaming to earth. A crater in the desert, Paradise lost. Now he attacks without mercy, without motive, the only living being able to move freely between the seven dark dominions. Lashed by inescapable needs, twisted by unimaginable talents, the Doom Bringer carries his own hell w

INTRODUCTION
Doom Bringer is a hero that can be a good nuker and can also be a good DPS-er. He can also be a good chaser and ganker. He is very flexible. He can acquire Neutral Creep’s skill for the team’s benefit. Maybe you can add +damage and Critical Strike with consuming Alpha Wolf. Or you can get +movement speed or slower attack from consuming certain creeps. Centaur Creeps will makes you get 2 second stun for area around you or Troll Creeps can make you get some skeleton underlings. For DPS er and team’s benefit, I recommend you to get Alpha Wolf and increase team’s damage and get critical strike for yourself. With 3 out of 4 of his skills gives magical damage. He is a decent nuker that can deal thousands of magical damage.ith him wherever he goes. Defiant to the last. Eventually, the world will belong to Doom.

This skill will be useful for farming creeps. You can last hits some creeps together. This skill also very useful in chasing a running foe’s. You get additional movement speed so you can chase enemies and makes him cannot run from you. Phase boots, and +move speed from dovoured creeps can makes your movement speed untouchable to enemies and can chase everyone running from your team. Your killing tactic should be: 1. Doom one target, 2. Use Lvl death and right click, 3. Chase with Scorched earth an additional movement speed from anything you have, phase, or from creeps, or from drums. You 90% can chase your target and kill him

This will make you to deal a decent dmage to the enemy. If your enemy is below 20% health, he will be instantly death if his level is right. 20% health as an additional damage is no joke, this will deal 575 damage for 1500 hp’s enemy and his level is a multiplier of 3 or 25 and this skill level is level 4. This is almost the same as Laguna Blade(the strongest instant single targetted nuke in DotA). And this is not even your ultimate.

When a name is tolled from the bell of Vashundol, doom is sure to follow.
This is your ultimate. Makes a single targetted enemy can’t use skills or items. He will also taking damages per second. He can just run or attacking with right click. This skill will makes that receive this skill to be doomed. There is just 2 options for him, to run or to right click. This will makes your team can attck the target conveniently without getting skilled by the doomed enemy. Very powerful. You need to target this skill to a dangerous opponent that have deadly spells, maybe Void that have Chrono Sphere, or Rhasta that have 4 active annoying skills, or someone dangerous.

STRATEGY
Early Game
Doom have 2 options in early game. He can jungling or he can laning. The option you choose will determine how you should play. If you choose to jungle, you must take Devour first, this will helps you to kills more
creeps. You can kill one big creeps like Centaur creep with this skill, and then absorb it's skill. Your new creep's skill will helps you in jungling, Alpha Wolf skill will increase your damage and gives you critical, or Satyr Hellcaller will gives you HP regen.
Midas will really helps you to gain golds faster. Midas will faster your jungling too. Midas will makes you faster in leveling because you will get 2.5 exp from creeps you midas.
Laning with doom is also not hard. If you are having a hard time in last hitting, you can still gain golds with Devour. If your HP is low, you can regenerate using Scorched Earth. You can also absorbs 1 creeps skill before laning to make you easier in laning phase, maybe Satyr Hellcaller that helps you with more HP regeneration, or Alpha Wolf that helps you with more damage for lasthits, or Ogre Magi that helps you with additional armor .

Mid Game
In mid game you can either participate in your team's activities of ganking and teamfights, or you can keep jungling and farming in lane. This is based on your type. You are a Carry Type or a Supportive-Nuker Type.
You can keep farming if you want to chase Radiance that will be very useful in teamfight in mid-late game. Or you can participate in teamfight to cast some Doom, Lvl Death, and Scorched Earth.
Your part in the game also decided from what creeps you consume. Like if you consume Alpha Wolf, you better become a physical damage dealer and buying some physical DPS items like Mkb or it's friends.
If you want to be the real chaser, you must consume Kobold and get some +movement speed. With +movement speed from Boots, Scorched Earth, and Kobold Aura, you will reach a skyhigh movement speed that can chase everything, maybe you can do some race with Barathrum or Weaver.
Late Game
Late game will really depends on your type. Doom is a very flexible hero. He can become a good nuker, he also can be a good carry. If you choose to be a nuker, late game items like Aghanim and Refresher will make you can Doom 2 enemies, that will be very annoying for them, 2 of their heroes will be doomed and your team can comfortably kill them all.
If you choose to be a good carry, you can buy Radiance, and also Cuirass, or even Battlefury will fit your playstyle as a carry. Don't forget Alpha Wolf that will gives you bonus damage and critical strike.
