    BIO
    Terrorblade is the demon marauder--an outlaw hellion whom even other demons fear. A cosmic iconoclast, he stole from the Demon Lords, ignored the codified rites that should have bound his behavior, and broke every law of the seven Infernal Regions. For his crimes, he was taught this lesson: even Hell has a hell. A short, brutal trial ensued, with many dead on all sides, and he was finally incarcerated in Foulfell, a hidden dimension where demonkind imprison their own.

    But Foulfell is no normal prison. In this dark mirror of reality, demons are sentenced to gaze eternally into the twisted reflection of their own souls. But instead of suffering, Terrorblade made himself master of his own reflected worst self--a raging, thieving demon of unimaginable power. With his inner beast under sway, he destroyed the fractal prison walls and burst free to turn his terror loose upon all creation.

    BIO
    Lost within the Wailing Mountains, the Fortress of Flares lay abandoned, its training halls empty, its courtyard covered in leaves and dust. Upon a dais in its sealed temple rests a topaz cauldron filled with ancient ash, remnants of a pyre for the warrior-poet Xin. For three generations, Xin taught his acolytes the Bonds of the Guardian Flame, a series of mantras to train the mind and body for the harsh realities beyond the fortress walls. However, in teaching a warrior's way he earned a warrior's rivals, and in his autumn Xin was bested and slain. His followers spread to the wind. Yet as years turned to centuries and followers to descendants, his teachings endured by subtle whisper and deed. Touched by the teacher's lasting legacy, the Burning Celestial, inquisitive aspect of fire, cast himself to the Fortress of Flares and reignited the pyre ash.

    Why take Searing Chains  for level 1? For insurance so that we can lock down the enemy when they chase you.

    Why maxed Flame Guard first?  This is your main nuke, you will need this for ganking, farming, and killing on early-mid game. And also don't forget about the shield that will protects you from enemy's burst damage.

    Why maxed Searing Chains before Sleight of Fist? The rule of DotA: Nukes for early game, physical damage for late game. Searing Chains is a nuke that will  deal more damage on early-mid game. And Sleight of Fist is for physical attacks that will be the main source of damages for late game.


    STRATEGY
    Early Game
    Your main role here is farming. We recommend using a safe lane to farm. Farm rate will be maximized if you are protected by the kind of supports just like Shadow Shaman or Maiden. They will protect you from enemy harassment. Besides your team could also be more aggressive and look for first blood. If so, you can help with your Searing Chains + Flame Guard. Make sure to get enough farm in the early game, so mid game will be easier for your team.

    Mid Game
    In the midgame, your FlameGuard + Searing Chains should already reached maximum damage. Because of that, so you can occasionally helps the team to ganks. And that will makes you even richer than before. Start a gank with your Searing Chains and then deal damage using your FlameGuard. If you are being ganked, escape using your Remnant. Coordinate a gank with your partner so you will make sure to get at least 1 kill. Smoke of deceit your team before the ganks.

    And do not forget, as a carry, your main focus is the farm, do not use 100% of time to gank. When there is an empty lane use that opportunity to farm as much gold.  You can use the jungle for more leverage. For the purposes of the security in the farm, then prepare one remnant in a safe place so that you can farm a little away from your base, and when it seems some enemies who want to kill you, you can quickly move to your remnant that you've prepared in the harbor earlier .


    Late Game
    In the late game, you has the potential to carrying your team. The Sleight of Fist is your main skill here. Here you should already have all your core items ,at least you 've got Battlefury and also coupled with the high damage items like Daedlus and also Desolator so you can combine it with the Sleight of fist to make tons of damage in an area.

    At this time , if it happens teamfight then you should participate . Because if if not , then your team is certainly to lose . That's where the importance of the role of carry in the late game . To be the main damage dealer.

    You can farm if :
    1 . There are hiding your team near your farm. That way if it comes the enemy that ganks you then your friends will be ready to ambush them.
    2 . You can also farm by first preparing the remnant at the base to go back immediately if needed. Do this while your team waiting enemy to go high ground.

    Your team could also initiating by smoke of deceit , and 5 people should participate in it  ,then with a little luck you will find an opponent who is alone and kill him with ease.

    And for the formation in teamfight, you should hide and after enemys are all come and drops their ultimate, you can come out and finish them.

    ITEMS BUILD
    1. Starting Items

     3. Late Game / Core / Damage items
    Battlefury: Gives cleave so if there is some enemy in an area, your sleight of fist makes you can cleave to all of them. BattleFury is stack so you can get 2-3 Fury that gives you so many cleave damage.
    Desolator: With your Sleight of Fist, you can reduce all of enemys armor in an area while damaging them.
    Daedlus: the damage from critical is very high, so it will makes your Sleight of Fist become deadly.

From this rare material, the likeness of the great general Kaolin was carved and buried at the head of a stone funerary army ten thousand strong--a force of soldiers and holy men, jesters and acrobats, carved by crafstmen and entombed for millennia in the dark embrace of the Earth.

    What the craftsmen had not known was that within the strange seam of jade flowed the spirit of the Earth itself--an elemental force at one with the planet. When the force within the carved jade found itself cut off from the life's blood of the world, it gathered its strength over the course of a thousand years and dug itself free and into the light. Now the great Kaolin Earth Spirit strides the Upland roads, fighting for the spirit of the Earth; and in times of need calls forth remnants of his buried army still locked in the loving embrace of the soil.

    Why Boulder Smash taken first? 125 damage at level 1 is good to herass enemy in the lane. And if want to hunt firstblood, his stun will be needed. 

    Why Boulder Smash need to be maximized first? the more damage and also the decreases of cooldown which will benefit to for stunning and damaging more in the gank and teamfight.

    Why increase Geomagnetic Grip before the rolling Boulder? Silence will be needed for ganking, and the increasing silence duration would trigger ganking success.

    STRATEGY

    Early
    At the beginning of the game, your role will depend on your position in the team, whether you are here as a support, or you as a solo offlane or you as a solo mid lane? 
    Will now be discussed one by one on all three roles above. 

    1. As a support. 
    As a means of support in your lane, there will be a carry that will do the last hits, and here you are guarding him. In case your carry is attacked by the enemy, you should immediately stun them with Geomagnetic grip, or you can pull your friend for safety using Geomagnetic Grip.
    If you want to act rather aggressively, then you can roll towards the enemy and then stun and silence him then take him down with your friend..

    2. As a solo offlane.
    As a solo offlaner, then all it takes is patience because it is very difficult for solo offlaner to  get gold and exp.Because the enemy will do to pull his creep wave and making us not get anything. It takes patience. Do not be too far away from your tower. If there is a chance and 100% safe from a gank then you can try to last-hits.
    Keep playing safe until someone is coming into your lane and gank the enemy! Or maybe you can leave your lane and gank the enemy on the other lane.

    3. As a solo mid.
    As a solo mid, the skills for last hitting and denying will be more needed than the other roles. Keep calm! and occasionally harass the enemy. Also, on the mid lane you will need a bottle. Bottle is needed to get runes for ganking other lanes.
    Once you're level 6 or above, start to move to another lane to gank the enemy. Look for the kill as much.

    Mid Game
    In the mid game , your ganks will determine the success of your team . You have steady abilities, either stun or silence to defeat enemies . Before doing gank , prepare items that may be needed , such as dust , or smoke . And do not forget to coordinate the gank with your friends ,remember to focus on one target, and kill him first and then you can switch to another target . Highly recommended to chain stun ,waiting for the completion of the stun before casting the next stun.

    For initiation using Earth Spirit , use the Rolling Boulder to advance towards the enemy , do not forget shortly after rolling , place the stones so that the farther distance performance. And then you can cast stun( Geomagnetic Grip) and then use ulti, and also don'tforget to use silence ( Boulder Smash ) . Ifyour combo is right then the enemy will dither and his Hp will become little, and friends can easily defeat the enemy .

    Late Game
    In the late game your main role is as an initiator to make some space for your teammates . As always use the Rolling Boulder to roll towards the enemy , then stun , then ulti and Silence . If all goes well, after you do a teamfight initiation, all enemies will be exposed to damage by 20-30% of their hp, besides that they will be stunned and silenced. And it would open widen the way for the carry to finish them off.
