Dota 2 - Outworld Devourer Build Guide
0
BIO
One of a lordly and magisterial race, Harbinger prowls the edge of the Void, sole surviving sentry of an outpost on the world at the rim of the abyss. From this jagged crystalline Outworld, forever on guard, he has gazed for eternities into the heavens, alert for any stirring in the bottomless night beyond the stars. Imprinted deep in the shining lattices of his intellect lies a resonant pattern akin to prophecy, a dark music implying that eventually some evil will wake out there, beyond the edges of creation, and turn its attention to our world. With his whole being focused on his vigil, Outworld Destroyer paid little attention to events closer in to the sun. But at last the clamor of the Ancients, and a sense of growing threat from within as well as without, sent him winging sunward to visit the plains of war. Harbinger's place in our own prophecies is unambiguous: he must be considered an omen of worse things to come. But his arrival in itself is bad enough.
INTRODUCTION
Outworld Devourer is a hero that have high attack damage because of his Arcane Orb that deal pure damage. Arcane Orb damage is almost the same as a double damage for him. Not just that, he also have a mighty ultimate that deal massive AoE damage to all enemies. He is considered a hero that needs some farm and will be shine on the mid-late game.
STATS
ABILITIES
1. Arcane Orb
Adds extra pure damage to Outworld Devourer's attacks, based on his remaining mana pool. Arcane Orb also does bonus damage to summoned units and illusions. Arcane Orb is a Unique Attack Modifier, and does not stack with other Unique Attack Modifiers.
Harbinger's outworldly knowledge allows it to tap into the ebb and flow of all spiritual energy, infusing it into his being.
This is your main skill on carrying your team. You will deal a massive pure damage to a target. The damage is so high and can destroy any squishy hero in seconds. The damage is almost the same as a double damage rune. So always use this in any teamfight and gank to destroy all your opponents. Focusing on a squishy hero first and get many kills!
2. Astral Imprisonment
Places a target allied or enemy hero into an astral prison. The hidden hero is invulnerable and disabled. When cast on an enemy Hero, Harbinger temporarily steals intelligence from that hero.
Locked away in the pocket between this world and the Outworld, victims realize their infantile knowledge and mortality.
This skill is used to banish a target for several seconds. You can use this on the laning phase by banishing your opponent so he can't last hits properly. Not just that, you also steal your target's Intelligence, that means that you can drain the target's intelligence into almost 0 so he cannot cast any skill. It is very useful to defend yourself in the laning phase because you can feel save anytime because your opponent don't have mana to cast a skill.
3. Essence Aura
Whenever nearby allied Heroes or Outworld Devourer itself casts a spell, it gains a chance to restore 25% of its mana pool. Outworld Devourer also passively gains a bonus to its base mana pool. Several skills with no cooldown and toggled spells cannot trigger Essence Aura.
The crystals of the Outworld produce arcane power, and the Harbinger channels it into the world of mortals.
Have a chance to recover some mana if you or nearby allied heroes are casting a spell. A very useful skill in mana recovery. Because you can always have your mana full at anytime. You can always cast your Arcane Orb and let this skill recover your mana pool automatically. Not just that, your friend also can recover their mana if they cast any spell near you.
4. Sanity's Eclipse
Deals damage to enemy Heroes in an area of effect based on the difference between Harbinger and the affected Hero's intelligence. If the Hero takes less than the damage threshold, that Hero loses 75% of its current mana. Sanity's Eclipse can hit units trapped in Astral Imprisonment. If an enemy hero has the same or higher Intelligence than Outworld Devourer, Sanity's Eclipse has no effect. Upgradable by Aghanim's Scepter.
When an Outworld crystal ruptures, cataclysmic energies are released, and the reverberations of this power are felt interdimensionally.
This is your skill to damaging many enemy in a teamfight. All enemies in the AoE will receive so many damage , the calculation is based on the difference between your INT and the target's INT, and it will be multiplied by 8, 9, 10, or 11.
So cast this after the clash is started, and make sure it hist at least 2-3 enemies. It will reduce their HP my a much and help your team by a lots.

STRATEGY
Early Game
On the early game, always cast the Astral imprisonment when your rival in lane is about to last hit a creep, so he will fail in that last hit. And also he will have his mana to be so low and cannot cast a skill and you will be safe on farming. Always beware on gank from any side of the map. Remember to see the spot of where the gank usually comes and retreat immediately if someone is trying to gank you. Ward is always needed, so you can always see the important spot.
Mid Game
On the mid game, your damage is starting to rise up. And I strongly recommend you to keep farming to make you become stronger. Your job in the game is to farm 24/7, that is needed to collect the good items you need to carry your team into victory.
Meanewhile, if any gank happening, you can help your team by:
1. Cast your ultimate to reduce enemy's HP into minimum
2. Banish 1 hero if that hero looks too strong for the teamfight.
3. Attack squishy hero first, (Always activate Arcane Orb for your attack)
4. If there is no squishy heroes left, start attacking their main hero.
If your team lose the teamfight, retreat immediately, you can use the Astral imprisonment to banish 1 hero and maybe that can help you to escape safely.
Late Game
On the late game, I supposr you already have some nice items in your pocket and you area ready to fight. Usually you will have force staff and a Sheepstick to initiate a teamfight, so > if you see any hero coming up, use force staff imeediately and quickly hex him! And after that, use Arcane Orb to harass him until death. Your friend also should come for helping with their skill.
And in the teamfight your job is:
1. Pop the Bkb if you have one
2. Use forcestaff and a Sheepstick if you have one too
3. To cast Sanity's Eclipse in the starting of the teamfight
4. Banish a hero that will make a trouble to your team
5. Attack their squishy hero first, of course with your right click equipped with the Arcane Orb
6. Destrouty all the reamaining hero
If you succeed in the teamfight, you have 2 options;
1. Push their base, destroys their towers, barracks and ancients
2. Kill Roshan
Choose one that your team think will benefit the most.

Dota 2 - Storm Spirit Build Guide

BIO
Storm Spirit is literally a force of nature--the wild power of wind and weather, bottled in human form. And a boisterous, jovial, irrepressible form it is! As jolly as a favorite uncle, he injects every scene with crackling energy. But it was not always thus, and there was tragedy in his creation. Generations ago, in the plains beyond the Wailing Mountains, a good people lay starving in drought and famine. A simple elementalist, Thunderkeg by name, used a forbidden spell to summon the spirit of the storm, asking for rain. Enraged at this mortal's presumption, the Storm Celestial known as Raijin lay waste to the land, scouring it bare with winds and flood. Thunderkeg was no match for the Celestial--at least until he cast a suicidal spell that forged their fates into one: he captured the Celestial in the cage of his own body. Trapped together, Thunderkeg's boundless good humor fused with Raijin's crazed energy, creating the jovial Raijin Thunderkeg, a Celestial who walks the world in physical form.
INTRODUCTION
Storm Spirit is considered a nuker, initiator, and disabler in DotA. Storm can move so fast like a lightning using his ultimate Lightning Bolt and then catch somebody and make him can't move and then kill him with Storm's nuke and attack.
Storm is considered a ganker and initiator, his time to shine is on mid game where lots of gank happening. And because his high mobility he can gank enemy easily and help the team to get many kills.
ROLE
STATS
ABILITIES
1. Static Remnant
Creates an explosively charged image of Storm Spirit that lasts 12 seconds and will detonate and deal damage if an enemy unit comes near it.
Raijin Thunderkeg's duality allows him to admire himself in shocking fashion.
This is your nuking skill. This skill is spammable. With only 3.5 sec cooldown, you can spam this skill anytime you want. The damage is considered high and hurt your opponents.
You can use this skill to farm the creeps, or to harass your enemy. Harassing enemy with this skill you need to be close to the enemy, and damaging your target. By jumping using your ultimate and pull your enemy using Vortex, you will close enough and can nuke your enemy using Remnant and deal some damage.
2. Electric Vortex
A vortex that pulls an enemy unit to Storm Spirit's location, it also slows the Storm Spirit by 50% for 3 seconds.
Raijin's thunderous, boisterous energy often draws others into an electrifying situation.
This is your disabling skill. You pull a target into you so you and your team can attack him freely. A good skill for ganking. And also by doing this, you get an Overload charge to help you harass your target.
You need this to initiate a teamfight after you use the Lightning Ball, then you should disable an enemy and harass him.
3. Overload
Casting a spell creates an electrical charge, which is released in a burst on his next attack, dealing damage and slowing nearby enemies.
Pow! Zip! Zap!
Everytime you cast a spell, you get a charge in your next attack, it contains +damage and a slowing ability. A very good skill for chasing and harassing a target because you will slow down your target and it will makes you can catch your target. You get a charge everytime you use Ball Lightning, Electric Vortex, or Remnant, so this skill is almost sure will come out in in every situation so you can get extra +slow and damage you need to harass and catch your enemy.
4. Ball Lightning
Storm Spirit becomes volatile electricity, charging across the battlefield until he depletes his mana or reaches his target. The mana activation cost is 15+7% of his total mana pool, and the cost per 100 units traveled is 10+1% of his total mana pool. Damage is expressed in damage per 100 units traveled.
The Storm is coming in.
This skill is the trademark of Storm Spirit, a skill to jump anywhere you want at least you have a mana. You need this skill to catch enemy, harass them, or can make you escape easily.
You deal damage in the path of this skill, the more range you jumps, the more damage it deals.

Actually if there is already a disabler on your team, Remnant can also helps you to get firstblood by damaging the enemy.
Why maxed Static Remnant first? This is your main nuke, you will need this for ganking, farming, and killing or early mid game.
Why maxed Electric Vortex before Overload? The longer the disable, the better for the team because the team gets more time damaging the disabled target.
