    BIO
    Any mage can cast a spell or two, and a few may even study long enough to become a wizard, but only the most talented are allowed to be recognized as a Magus. Yet as with any sorcerer's circle, a sense of community has never guaranteed competitive courtesy.

    Already a renowned duelist and scholar of the grander world of sorcery, it had never occurred to Rubick that he might perhaps be Magus material until he was in the midst of his seventh assassination attempt. As he casually tossed the twelfth of a string of would-be killers from a high balcony, it dawned on him how utterly unimaginative the attempts on his life had become. Where once the interruption of a fingersnap or firehand might have put a cheerful spring in his step, it had all become so very predictable. He craved greater competition. Therefore, donning his combat mask, he did what any wizard seeking to ascend the ranks would do: he announced his intention to kill a Magus.

    Rubick quickly discovered that to threaten one Magus is to threaten them all, and they fell upon him in force. Each antagonist's spell was an unstoppable torrent of energy, and every attack a calculated killing blow. But very soon something occurred that Rubick's foes found unexpected: their arts appeared to turn against them. Inside the magic maelstrom, Rubick chuckled, subtly reading and replicating the powers of one in order to cast it against another, sowing chaos among those who had allied against him. Accusations of betrayal began to fly, and soon the sorcerers turned one upon another without suspecting who was behind their undoing.

    When the battle finally drew to a close, all were singed and frozen, soaked and cut and pierced. More than one lay dead by an ally's craft. Rubick stood apart, sore but delighted in the week's festivities. None had the strength to argue when he presented his petition of assumption to the Hidden Council, and the Insubstantial Eleven agreed as one to grant him the title of Grand Magus.

    DURATION: 180 / 240 / 300

    ...but even their lesser magics can be a source of much utility.
    This is your most annoying skill for the enemy. You can steal a spell from a target and you can use the spell against the it's owner.
    There so many possibilities from using this skill. You can steal some very nice ultimate like Ravage, Chain Frost, or Black Hole and use it against the owner of these spells.
    The spell you got, is depends on what is the last spell casted by the target. So if an Enigma successfully casted Decomic Conversion right after he finished his Blackhole and you can't catch up, you will gain Demonic Conversion instead of a Blackhole, so be careful, try to use your hands quickly after he finishes the spell you want to steal.

    Why take Telekinesis for level 1? You can use this for if you like to find firstblood with your friends, and also if you want to troll the enemy by taking him uphill so he can't come down.

    Why maxed Fade Bolt first?  This is your main nuke, you will need this for ganking, farming, and killing on early mid game.

    Why maxed Telekinesis  before Null Field?  You need more level of Telekinesis for longer lift duration and stun duration, and the the Null Field is important for the team on mid-late game teamfight to reduce enemy's magical damage.

    STRATEGY
    Early Game
    Rubik is useful since the early stage of the game. With the fadebolt and telekinesis + long ranged attack, Rubik can conveniently control the lane. Every lane you choose, it's ok, you can be a support or a solo laner. You have a strong nuke with the damage reducer and a n ok disable.
    Also if your team needs you as a support, it's also ok, you can buy a support by buying courier and wards.

    On the laning phase, if yu are a solo, try to last hit every creeps on the lane while denying once in a while. Use Fade Bolt to harass your enemy and also for double last hits. Remember that Fade bolt is also reducing enemy's damage so they will be harder in last hitting/denying.

    Mid Game
    Mid game is the time for al around ganking. You, as a nuker / disabler hero, should roam and help your friends on another lane. Tell your friend that you are ready to gank and ask him to help you, then you should come to the lane and use Telekinesis to disable the target, your friends and you can harass him while he is disabled, and then you can use the Fade Bolt to harass more, and also you should steal a skill from your target and use it to him. It is rather difficult to steal a skill you want from a target because the acquired skill is depend of what is the last skill casted by the target, luck is the key factor here. And if you are lucky, you will see your target using the skill you want so you can immediately steal it to benefir your team.
    Dota 2 - Rubik Build Guide
    Late Game
    On the late game, it is the time to party. Every enemy hero has already reached a high level, so you can steal their ultimate on the max  level. Be careful on which skill you steal, make sure you steal the best skill to benefit more for your team. You need to stea; the best skill like Ravage (Tidehunter), Blackhole (Enigma), or Chain Frost (Lich). And if you successful of acquiring the top skill from the enemy, that's your time to shine. To use their ultimate for themselves.

    Maybe you already acquired Sheepstick here. And if so, you should use it to initiate a teamfight. By using force staff / dagger and then cast the Hex on your enemy and then your team can come in and dominate the teamfight. The rule of dota is: the one who initiate first, will likely to win the teamfight, so initiating a teamfight is the determiner of your team victory, be quick and initiate carefully by using the sheepstick, or at least using a telekinesis.

Mortals who hear his voice hear their darkest secrets whispered in their ear. He calls to the hidden fear in every Hero's heart. Wakefulness is no protection, for Bane's black blood, continuously dripping, is a tar that traps his enemies in nightmare. In the presence of Bane, every Hero remembers to fear the dark.

    STRATEGY
    Early Game
    You can take any lane you want, top, mid, or bot, it's up to you and your team. You can solo or you can accompany your partner in the lane. Bane is quiet a strong early-game hero, on the early game is his maximum potential, you can control the lane easily here. You have enfeeble to make your enemy damage reduced so he can't last hit / deny or even harass you.
    You have Brain Sap to harass your enemy and also recover your HP.  Because of the Brain Sap's high damage, you can also gain early kills. If you want to do so, better to ask your friend to help because it will make your job easier.
    You can also become a support hero for the team by buying wards, it will give vision to the team and help your team void enemy's gank.

    Mid Game
    Once you get your ultimate, you're ready to gank. Your ultimate is so strong especially on the early stage of the game, it make the target can'y move while receiving some damage, so your partner can easily harass him.
    If you gank 2 heroes, use Nightmare for one of them, and then use your ultimate on the other, your friend can easily harass the targetted enemy, and then you can use Brain Sap too if the target still alive.
    The key to use Bane is to precisely click on the right target, use your eyes carefully, and then click the desire enemy to maximize your skill potential. Practice makes perfect, so always practice your click is a good way to improve your precision of using a single targetted spell.

    BIO
    Aiushtha appears to be an innocent, carefree creature of the woods, and while this is certainly true, it is hardly the sum of her story. She well understands the suffering of the natural world. She has wandered far, and fared through forests bright and drear, in every clime and every season, gathering friends, sharing news, bringing laughter and healing wherever she goes. For in worlds wracked by war, forests are leveled for the building of ships and siege engines; and even in places of peace, the woods are stripped for the building of homes, and as fuel for countless hearths. Aiushtha hears the pleas of the small creatures, the furtive folk who need green shade and a leafy canopy to thrive. She lends her ears to those who have no other listeners. She carries their stories from the wood to the world, believing that her own good cheer is a kind of Enchantment, that can itself fulfill the promise of a verdant future.

    INTRODUCTION

    STRATEGY
    Early Game
    On early game, you should not go straight into the lane because you should acquire the creeps in the jungle to gank enemies and also for early pushing. You can stay in the jungle for a while in the early game while gaining more level and more creeps. If you already get 3 creeps, you can come to the lane and push the lane for early tower that gives gold advantages to the team.
    try to use TAB to change between your creeps, try to maximiz every creeps ability like the Centaur's stun, Wildkin's tornado, etc.
    Also remember to slow down enemy using enchant and also remember to heal allies using the Nature's Attendant.

    Mid Game
    Mid game is still the time to use all the creeps. You should try to maximize every creeps ability.
    Use Wildkin's tornado to destroy's enemy's push wave, the damage is constant and not so painful, but with the time goes by, it will deal lots of damage to the pushing wave. Or you can use this tornado to push enemys lane.
    Or, Use Centaur to stun the enemy. and Use Troll to net the target.
    Roaming is your job in this stage of the game. Use your creeps to accompany you to kill all the enemy in every lane. It is good to kill enemy's carry to delay his farm and increase your team's chance to win the teamfight.

    Also use Nature's attendant maybe still useful here, to keep all team members alive during a hard teamfight.
