Dota 2 - Lifestealer Build Guide

BIO
In the dungeons of Devarque, a vengeful wizard lay in shackles, plotting his escape. He shared his cell with a gibbering creature known as N'aix, a thief cursed by the Vile Council with longevity, so that its life-sentence for theft and cozening might be as punishing as possible. Over the years, its chains had corroded, along with its sanity; N'aix retained no memory of its former life and no longer dreamt of escape. Seeing a perfect vessel for his plans, the wizard wove a spell of Infestation and cast his life-force into N'aix's body, intending to compel N'aix to sacrifice itself in a frenzy of violence while the mage returned to his body and crept away unnoticed. Instead, the wizard found his mind caught in a vortex of madness so powerful that it swept away his plans and shattered his will. Jarred to consciousness by the sudden infusion of fresh life, N'aix woke from its nightmare of madness and obeyed the disembodied voice that filled its skull, which had only the one thought: To escape. In that moment Lifestealer was born. The creature cast its mind into dungeon guards and soldiers, compelling them to open locks and cut down their companions, opening an unobstructed path to freedom while feeding on their lives. Lifestealer still wears the broken shackles as a warning that none may hold him, but on the inside remains a prisoner. Two minds inhabit the single form--a nameless creature of malevolent cunning, and the Master whose voice he pretends to obey.
INTRODUCTION
Naix is the best jungler in DotA, he can jungle conveniently since he’s Level 1. He use lifesteal to survive in jungle. Like his name, Lifestealer is the best lifesteal-er in DotA, all his skill are designed to maximize his lifesteal ability. That makes him one of the best one-by-one hero in DotA, he never lack of HP because he always receive new HP from stealing others.
ROLE
STATS
ABILITIES
1. Rage
Launch into a maddened rage, becoming immune to magic spells and gaining increased attack speed.
The madness and brutality of N'aix makes him a vicious and unrelenting foe in combat.
Rage is a skill you use to carry your team into victory. With this skill, you gain an additional attack speed that will make you to deal lots of damage to enemy. The most important is: You gain magic immunity during the duration of this skill. With the magic immunity, you will be inuvlnerable to magic and become an outstanding hero in a teamfight.
2. Feast
Regenerates a portion of the attacked enemy's current HP and deals the same portion of damage per attack.
After escaping from his cell in Devarque, N'aix subsisted on flesh and bones of those unfortunate to cross his path.
This skill is your main lifeteal skill. You need this to do jungle on early-mid game. With this skill, you can survive in jungle and get enough farm to get nice items for becoming a carry for your team.
This skill depends on enemy's HP, the more his HP the more your attack. so if you fight a thousands HP enemy on late game, this skill will really helps you.
3. Open Wounds
Lifestealer rends an enemy unit, slowing the victim's movespeed and allowing all allies to lifesteal on that unit. All damage dealt will steal life, including damage from spells. The victim recovers movement speed over the duration.
Fresh wounds and the scent of blood often draw out the scavengers to finish the job.
Slowing sown your enemy, this skill makes you can easily catch your opponent. He (your target) will be slowed and cannot run from you. Also, the attacker of your target will gain an additional lifesteal whether it is a magic attack or normal attack. With this, skill, and combined with Feast, your lifesteal will be so high and can absorb so many HP from your opponent.
4. Infest
Lifestealer will infest the body of the target unit, lying dormant and undetectable inside. When he reveals himself, he deals damage to all nearby enemy units. The Lifestealer can gain experience from units that die while he is Infesting a unit. If the unit is a creep, he will devour it first, gaining health equal to the unit's current HP. Does not work on enemy Heroes.
With this infestation, N'aix consumes the life blood of the host, restoring him back to full unholy power.
Going inside a unit, creeps (ally or foe, or jungle) and hero (ally). With this skill you can do fast farming in jungle because it will make your target instantly explode and you get the gold and experience, very good to use infeest on big creeps like Centaur, Wildkin, Troll, etc.
This skill is also deal damage near the explosion after you consume your target. So it is also a decent damage dealer to initaite a temfight and fight enemy.
For initiating with this skill, go inside your friend and if he already arrives and attack your opponent, come out, it will deal damage to all nearby enemy. Don't afraid, your friend will not exploding like a creep.
This skill is also useful for escaping. If you are on a difficult situation and must run, you can go inside the creep and stay there. usually enemy will follow the creep where there are you inside it. You may call your friends to help you and save you from the enemy.
5. Consume
Lifestealer eats the host body from the inside out.

Once the game start, I recommend you to straight go into the easy camp in the jungle. (Don’t make yourself visible in the easy camps right in sec 30 into the game, or you will waste your time waiting there). Quelling Blade + Stout Shield + Feast is enough to kill the easy camp in level 1. Keep fighting the easy camps after you are ready to fight aother creeps. Maybe at level 3-4 you already have enough ower to fight vs Stone Golem or Ogre. And in level 5-6 you can fight Centaur, Troll, etc.
Hand of midas is considered a good item for you. With mudas, you can get exp and gold faster than without midas. Very recommended to buy this as your 1st item.
Mid Game
Keep jungling is the best option. Why not? You are the best jungler in Dota, you can jungle easily and become the highest level + the richest in the game. After you have your boots (Pt is recommended) and maybe you already level 10+, you now can farm the ancients. Ancients give the most gold than other camps (except Roshan). Very recommended for you to focus Farming in just 2 main location > 1. Ancients, 2. Large canps the nearest to the ancient camp. With just focus farming in these location, and keep calm, you will reach enough gold to carry the team. Also remember to use Midas to big creeps like Centaur, Wildkin etc. And also if you want to be faster in farming, use Infest to creeps, it will instantly kill the creeps and don’t waste your time attacking the creeps.
Late Game
On late game it is your time to shine. You are the carry. You are the one who will save your team from loss. Carry the team into victory. You should already have some nice items that will deal lots of damage to enemies. There is many possibility for Naix. You can buy Desolator+Mordiggian or you can buy Tarrasque + Mkb or Basher?
There are lots of possibilities for you. Just choose one you are into it and carry your team with it. The key of successful carry is: be focus on one target, focus, and focus. Right click the right target, not the creeps. And after you succeeded kill your target, you can change to another target.
Oh I almost forgot, you can initiate a teamfight by using Infest into your friend, and come out if your friend already near the enemies.
Infest also useful to run from enemies.
Why Armlet of Mordiggian It will gives you damage, attack speed, and HP instantly. A very good skill for a carry-tank like you. Deactivate Armlet if not in a teamfight.
Can Save your live if you are below 500 HP and enemy want to nuke-kill you. Use this to instantly adds 475 HP.
For all melee carry and don't hava a natural cleaving ability, this item is a must have.
4. Battlefury
Total Cost: 225
Recipe: Broadsword, Claymore, Preserverance
Why Battlefury? Cleaving attack is a must for late game teamfight. You need a fast attack speed, cleaving high damage. This is what you need to knock-down all enemies. Also if you misclick your target and you attack the creep, or if you are back-out and can't think in a teamfight. Cleave attack will save your face.
And for Survivability in a Late Game, you can buy these items:
5. Heart or Tarrasque - Assault Cuirass
Why you need Survivability on a late game? Late game rule is: Who can survive in a teamfight, is the winner. So Survivability to winning a dotA game.
For a carry, DPS is always not enough.
8. You can increase your DPS more. Choose your own DPS items.As a carry, damage is your priority.

Dota 2 - Wraith King (Skeleton King) Build Guide
0
BIO
The victim of a longevity spell that backfired, the Skeleton King Ostarion has built an empire from the bones of his enemies. He lives only to extend his reach, for as long as he is perpetually building and adding to his domain he cannot die. The walls of his palace are formed of fired bone; the streets are paved with bones of every sort of creature and every enemy; and even the wood and other natural features of his land have been swept away and replaced with replicas formed of bone. From the Ivory Forest to Ostarion's towering Throne of Bone, nothing happens in the Empire of Bones without the full knowledge of its Skeleton King.
INTRODUCTION
Skeleton King is a hero that have 2 lives. When he die, he have a skill to reincarnate. This sounds unfair for another heroes. But, this is the reality. If you face Skeleton King, you must face his 2 lives. Actually you can kill him once if he has less than 140 mana or if his ultimate is still in cooldown.
This hero also has high physical damage and lifesteal aura.
And he also has a nice single targetted stun to chase enemies.
This hero is also a tanker that tank any damage in a brutal teamfight.
STATS
ABILITIES
1. Hellfire Blast
Skeleton King fires a sphere of hellfire at an enemy unit, dealing damage and stunning, then dealing damage over time and slowing the target.
Ostarion calls on his hellish lineage, laying waste to his opponents.
This skill is your main skill to stun the enemies. With this skill, you can gank enemy, you can disable 1 enemy in a teamfight, or you can chase enemy easily and attack him while he is being stunned by this skill.
I believe you should max this skill first because it will be useful to stun a single enemy in ganking.
Or you can defend yourself by using this skill to enemy whose chasing you.
2. Vampiric Aura
Nearby friendly melee units gain hit points based on their damage dealt when attacking enemy units.
Skeleton King's blade drains the marrow of bones into his own kingdom.
Help you and your teammates with a lifesteal ability for melee units. Creeps also get benefits from this skill.
This skill will helps you in jungling on early game. With a lifesteal, and also with your 3rd skill, critical strike you can jungle pleasantly.
Can helps allies in a teamfight for survivability if he keeps attacking.
You don't get benefit from this skill if you are not attacking, so keep attacking and keep alive
3. Mortal Strike
Skeleton King passively gains a chance to deal bonus damage on an attack. When activated, Mortal Strike steals a percentage of the max HP from the target hero, giving it to Skeleton King for the duration, and returning it after. While Mortal Strike is active, the passive component is disabled.
The power to crush a skull.
Will gives you a high chance of doing crtitical attack. This critical attack deal tons of physical damage that helps you in jungling, chasing, and killing enemies in teamfights. You are a true carry with this skill.
When you activate this skill, you temporarily steal some of tnemy's HP. a nice ability to last hit your opponent
4. Reincarnation
Skeleton King's bones reform after death, causing him to resurrect when killed in battle. Upon Reincarnation, enemy units in the area will be slowed by 30%.
Conspirators of the Skeleton King wonder why he never stays dead.
Makes you to have 2 lives. This is a wonderful skill. This is like your team plays with 6 heros because you have 2 lives. You can deal more damage because of this skill, you can tank more damage with this skill.
This skill have a fundamental weakness. If you heve less than 140 mana, you can't reincarnate, so mana burn will makes you can't reincarnate, some heroes like Anti Mage or Ezalor that can burn mana will make you can't reincarnate. Diffusal blade is also harmful for you because diffusal blade will drain your mana and makes you can't reincarnate.
You can also gives your first life to save your friend's lives. Or you can give it to initiate a teamfight.
In situation when you have less than 280 mana, it's recommend for you to better die if Reincarnation is not in cooldown, because if you use the Hellfire blast, you cannot Reincarnate because lack of mana.

Why maxed Hellfire Blast first? Hellfire Blast is your main skill for ganking and for teamfights.
When ganking you should use this to your enemy and makes him get stunned so your friends can
attack him easily.
When in a teamfight, you should use this to disable 1 target and he can't do anything for 2 sedonds.
Why maxed Critical Strike before Vampiric Aura? Critical strike is important skill for last hitting and harassing. Also makes you can knock down enemy easily while he is being stunned by your Hellfire Blast.
You will deal about 2 times of your normal damage and makes your opponent on low HP.
The victim of a longevity spell that backfired, the Skeleton King Ostarion has built an empire from the bones of his enemies. He lives only to extend his reach, for as long as he is perpetually building and adding to his domain he cannot die. The walls of his palace are formed of fired bone; the streets are paved with bones of every sort of creature and every enemy; and even the wood and other natural features of his land have been swept away and replaced with replicas formed of bone. From the Ivory Forest to Ostarion's towering Throne of Bone, nothing happens in the Empire of Bones without the full knowledge of its Skeleton King.
INTRODUCTION

STRATEGY
Early Game
You should try to last hits every creeps to earn gold fast and get your items fast. You are also a carry, so you need items. You can also doing jungling and kill neutrals, you are able to do this because you have vampiric aura and critical strike. If you want to steal firstblood, gank enemies with your Hellfire blast, and hope you get critical attack with your right click. And with your friends, I believe you can at least get firstblood or kill
Mid Game
You have 2 options in mid game.
1. Ganking
2. Farming
If you are feel more comfortable with ganking, then get ready to find opponent together with your friends. Your main skill in ganking is Hellfire Blast. You should come from the jungle and immediately use Hellfire Blast to stun your enemy. And then you and your friends attack and use skill to him until he die. Just repeat this and you will be safe.
If your friends is in danger, you can give up your first life and save your friend. Remeber you have 2 lives. Remember to keep your mana above 140, or if you feel the enemys is 1 Hellfire Blast away from die, you can use that mana for the Hellfire Blast.
If you feel you need to farm for the glory of the late game, that's ok for you. You have the potential for being a good carry. Just farm fast and earn items fast. I recommend Hand of Midas for fast leveling and gold flow. I recommend you to kill ancient creeps constantly each minutes they respawn. With this strategy, you will be the main damage dealer for your team. Your weapon is your critical strike. You will deal lots of damage for your enemies.
If you have aegis of the immortal, you will have 3 lives, and that's so hard for your opponent to kill you 3 times. And that's your chance to win the game.
Late Game
In late game I believe you should already have some nice items for your DPS output. You will deal lots of damages in teamfights as a carry. Be focused on a single target and change target if he dies, or he already far away to chase. You can Hellfire Blast him to makes him get stunned and easy to kill.
Be brave with this hero. You are a durable DPS-er. I believe you can survive and keep killing each enemy in teamfight.
