How to Play
Rush Blink Dagger because Burrowstrike range never scales with levels, you need it to land stuns on the right targets.
Channel Epicenter just before Blinking in, the pulses damage the whole fight the moment you arrive.
Burrowstrike is your only reliable stun, max it first and use it to escape since it has a low cooldown.
Stack the large camp every minute and clear it with Sand Storm plus Caustic Finale to hit your Blink timing fast.
Sand Storm gives instant invisibility, so use it to disjoint projectiles and juke through the trees.
Aghanim's Scepter turns Sand Storm into a storm of stun spines, making it a staple for teamfight control.
