A nice harassing skill for early game and a perfect DPS skill for the late game. This is becoming your main carrying ability for late game. (When equipped with BattleFuries it will much more gives damage because of the cleaves)

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.
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. From these glowing embers emerged an image of Xin, wreathed in flame, his thoughtful countenance prepared to train and to teach, and to spread the fires of knowledge to all who seek guidance.
INTRODUCTION
Ember Spirit is a hero who is not only lethal in the early game. He also has got a big potential to be a main carry for his team.
In early game, he had a dps skill and a lock down for 2 target that is so painful, especially for squishy hero like crystal maiden and so on. While in the late game he has sleight of fist that can provide thousands of damages to the enemies. Surely he needs adequate farm in the early and mid game so that he could be dangerous in the 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.

0
STATS
ABILITIES
1. Arcane Bolt
Skywrath launches a slow-moving bolt of arcane magic, dealing damage to an enemy unit based on Skywrath's intelligence.
This is your most fierceful skill on the early game. You need to always spam this skill since the earliest stage of the game and keep your opponent on low health. That way you will have more laning opportunity because as your opponent is in low health, they should not come near you and they cannot farm well so you can last hits and denies easily.
2. Concussive Shot
Skywrath sets off a long range shot that hits the closest hero within a long range. Upon impact, it deals damage and slows in an area of effect.
An auto-searching for target ability. So you click this ability, and then comes a bolt from you that finds the nearby enemy. The range is so high: 1600, So if you see any enemy on your screen, you can immediately slow down him and also damaging him with this skill. Needed to initiate a fire to the opponent, After you cast this sability, your enemy is slowed down and you can use your other 3 abilities. Also your friends can easily harass the opponent. The slow down effect can also be use on a run.
3. Ancient Seal
Skywrath seals the targeted unit with an ancient rune, silencing it and causing it to take additional damage from spells.
Silence down a target. And also gives the target a magical damage amplifier. One of your two initiating skill beside the Conssive Shot. Use the two skill combined and get the max result.
4. Mystic Flare
Skywrath uses his ultimate magical ability to conjure a precise and violent mystical field that lays waste to his adversaries. Deals massive damage distributed evenly among any Heroes in the area over 2 seconds.
Your most damaging ability. A bit hard to use because the radius is so small. So you may need a helping ability from your friend. You need a lock down ability that makes enemy can't move so he will receive a full damage from this skill.

BIO
A highly placed mage in the court of the Ghastly Eyrie, Dragonus lives a troubled existence. Sworn by birth to protect whoever sits within the Nest of Thorns, he hates the current Skywrath queen with all his soul. As a youth, high-born, he was a friend and companion to the eldest Skywrath princess, Shendelzare, first in line for the Nest. He had loved her warmly and unshakably, but as his studies took hold, his mind turned to arcane learning and the mastery of Skywrath sorcery.
Obsessed with matters aetherial, he missed the mundane signs of courtly treachery that hinted at a plot against Shendelzare, and lost his chance to foil it. When the court was shaken by a swift and violent coup, he emerged from his studies to discover his oldest and dearest friend had been lost to him. The Nest of Thorns now belonged to Shendelzare's ruthless younger sister, and Dragonus could do nothing. The magic of the Skywrath Mage serves only the sworn protector of the Skywrath scion, so to act against the Nest would render him helpless. He clings to his post, believing it to be the best hope of one day restoring his true love to her rightful place. Meanwhile, his secret is known only to the goddess Scree'auk, whose magic it was transformed Shendelzare from a crippled physical creature into an embodiment of pure vengeful energy.
While he dreams of restoring his beloved queen to the Ghastly Eyrie, he dreams even more desperately of restoring Shendelzare herself to a fully healed physical form. The duplicity of his role at court tortures him, for he is a noble and good-hearted creature; but the worst torture of all is imagining the hatred that Vengeful Spirit must hold in her heart for him.

Dota 2 - Dark Seer Build Guide

BIO
Fast when he needs to be, and a cunning strategist, Ish'Kafel the Dark Seer requires no edged weapons to vanquish his enemies, relying instead on the strength of his powerful mind. His talent lies in his ability to maneuver the fight to his advantage. Hailing from a place he calls 'The Land behind the wall,' Dark Seer remains an outsider here-a warrior from a realm beyond the veil of this reality.
Once a great general among his people, and a valiant defender of the god-king Damathryx, Dark Seer's army was wiped out by a much larger force in the final days of the Great Boundaries War. Facing certain defeat, he made one last desperate act: he led the enemy forces into the maze between the walls. At the last moment, just before capture, he crossed over-then sealed the walls forever in an explosive release of dark energy. When the dust settled, he saw that he had saved his people but found himself blinking at the sun of a different world, with no way to return. Now he is committed to proving his worth as a military strategist, and vows to show that he's the greatest tactician this strange new world has ever seen.
INTRODUCTION
Dark Seer is a hero that is usually picked in a competitive game. He have many powerful abilities, from Ion Shell, a skill to deal damage to anyone that touches the shell, or Wall of Replica: a skill that creates illusion to anyone that touches his wall, and that illusion will attack the enemy. Or he have a skill to suck enemies into one point and then can be combined with other heroes abilities to make powerful combo.
STATS
ABILITIES

Ish'Kafel modifies the center of gravity to a place of his choosing.
This is a needed skill to make a big combo. You can combine this skill with Blackhole to make a big combo that will suck all enemies and make them can't do anything.
2. Ion Shell
Surrounds the target unit with a bristling shield that damages enemy units in an area around it.
The Dark Seer slices holes into the 'Land Behind the Wall,' causing prismatic energy to seep forth.
This is your main damaging skill. You place a shell on a target and each enemy that touches it will feel some damage per second.
3. Surge
Charges a target friendly unit with power, giving it a brief burst of maximum movement speed.
Ish'Kafel once used his speed of mind to navigate the maze between the walls.
Increase the movement speed of you or you can also increase an ally movement speed. Needed to escape fro ganks. Can also use this to chase a target.
4. Wall of Replica
Raises a wall of warping light that damages and creates replicas of any enemy hero who crosses it. Enemy replicas serve at the Dark Seer's will. Upgradable by Aghanim's Scepter.
The Dark Seer, while unable to return to his natural realm, can channel part of the prismatic wall with powerful strength of mind, sowing confusion amongst enemy ranks.
Replica enemies and make the replica to attack the enemy. So powerful skill to use in a teamfight. The replica damage is a painful damage that will deal lots of damage to enemies. So cast this in the middle of the enemy and make sure the enemy will feel their own damage.

STRATEGY
Early Game
Ion Shell is your main source of damage here. You can cast this for allied creep while you are far away from the creeps clashing area and keep getting gold because the damage from the shell is killing enemy creeps. That way is useful when you are doing an offlane solo Dark Seer because you need to be far away from the creep wave to avoid getting ganked and being killed. Or you can csat this to enemy creeps and the shell will do the work, it will damaging the nearest creeps and enemy hero and you will get golds eventually, and also keep harassing your enemy on your lane. Or cast this to your self and start harassing enemy by moving directly to him.
Mid Game
