Shendelzare Silkwood,the Vengeful Spirit.

Shendelzare Silkwood,the Vengeful Spirit(abbreviation:VS)

Advantages:
-Deals comparatively high damage in early games as VS has the highest damage in a targeted stun out of all dota heroes.
-Deals dramatically high damage in late games due to Command Aura.
-Is supportive for VS's armor reduction aura for enemies and attack damage aura for allies.
-Highly weakens enemies' forces due to VS's nether swap when it comes to teambattle.
-Very dynamic,changes style of play effectively.

Disadvantages:
-Low hp
-Attack range of 400 is considered low for ranged heroes.
-Considerably long animation after each hit.A plus point if animation cancelling skill is practised.
-Needs a lot of skills after casting Nether Swap.Switching positions with an enemy hero is easy,but getting away from the crowd safely is a difficulty.

To optimize VS's advantages and at the same time,cover the disadvantages,is what VS should do.As I mentioned earlier,VS is very dynamic,and basically I can suggest at least 3 types of role and build VS can play well,let's name it my way:

-Offensive
-When the team has not enough fighters,VS can be one,an effective one.Item build is basically all-offensive.
-During a teambattle,stay with the team,let tankers tank in front and start hitting as soon as you can reach enemy heroes.HIT THEIR MAIN FIGHTERS FIRST.
-Cast Terror to reduce enemy forces' armor and damage before doing anything else to maximize the damage.
-Since VS is the fighter,Nether Swap and Magic Missile can be used for safety purpose,for example,to stun the hero who is attacking VS,or to switch position with a hero outside the teambattle to escape when VS has low hp.

-Supportive
-VS can be extremely supportive in late games.Command aura,Terror,Magic Missile,and Nether Swap are basically all supportive.
-During teambattle,stay somewhere in the middle of the team to possibly give all allies units the Command Aura,and at the same time,effectively cast Terror for all enemy units.
-Mekansm,Guinsoo's Scythe of Vyse,Necromonicon and Eye of Skadi are the item options to be used to support the team.
-Great use of these items gives catastrophic effect for the enemy.Mekansm to heal,Guinsoo's scythe to disable,Necromonicon to boost the speed of the allied units,and EOS to slow the escaping heroes.Unbelieveable.

-Armor-reductive
-Doesn't need much explanations,Assault Cuirass,Stygian Desolator and VS's Terror total up an armor-reduction aura of 16 for a targeted enemy unit and 10 for the rest of the enemy units.Imagine that.
-To optimize the use of Stygian Desolator,it is recommended to attack different nearby target heroes in a teambattle,to further reduce their armor.(Provided you have good cover from your teammates to do the damage during the effect of Stygian desolator.)
-With the aid of Assault Cuirass and Terror,EOS alone gives enough hp to stay somewhere in front of the team during teambattles.Stand up front to initiate the battle by reducing enemy units' armor by 10.I believe winning a teambattle is not a difficulty.

Item building for mentioned styles of play for VS.

-Offensive build

-Power thread
-A must for fighters,boosts attack speed which is very much needed.
-Stygian Desolator
-Greatly reduces targeted units' armor.A plus point for VS's high damage.
-Butterfly
-Greatly boosts VS's damage and attack speed,gives 30% evasion which is very helpful for low hp VS.
-Radiance
-Animation cancelling skill alone is useful to take down escaping heroes,yet radiance is not only a strong plus point in hunting heroes,it's also a vital item in teambattles,and creeping too!
-Buriza Do Kyanon
-Base damage of 400+ gives a critical damage of 880+.Do I need to further explain?
-Black King Bar
-To be a fighter,we must be prepared to be the main target of enemy heroes.To deal damage without being disabled,Black King Bar is an option especially there are quite a number of Int heroes to disable.


-Supportive build

-Boots of travel
-Greatly boosts movement speed and ability to teleport,gives VS ability to provide immediate back up for the team.Also for farming purpose to reach a tower before the creeps are being cleared.
-Mekansm
-Heals nearby allied units and boosts armor,fairly effective to heal allied heroes,yet effect is less obvious in late games when hp of heroes increases over levels and items.Helpful in pushes.
-Guinsoo's Scythe of Vyse
-Gives ability to disable enemy hero for 4 seconds.Target main damage dealers of the enemy team.Awesome.Gives VS enough mana pool and mana regeneration to spam skills efficiently too. -Assault Cuirass
-Gives 5 armor aura and slightly increases nearby allied units' attack speed,5 armor reduction aura for enemies,totals up with Mekansm,perfect.
-Lothar's Edge
-Enables VS to get away easily from the enemy unhurt after switching position with one of the enemy heroes especially when enemy heroes stick.
-Empty Bottle/Arcane Ring for early games OR Eye of Skadi for late games.
-Empty bottle to heal and arcane ring to spam without having to worry about mana regeneration for the team,is fairly enough in the early games.During late games,An Empty Bottle or Arcane Ring doesn't really help already.Eye of Skadi might be an option as it greatly increases VS's hp and mana pool,giving Slow effect to prevent enemy units from escaping.


-Armor-reductive build

-Boots of travel
-To fully optimize VS's role to reduce enemy units' armor,boots of travel will do the job to make sure VS is at EVERY battlefield possible,immediately.
-Stygian Desolator
-Reduces enemy units' armor by 6.Enable the team to amplify damage dealt to the enemy units VS targets.
-Assault Cuirass
-Further reduces enemy units' armor.Totals up an armor reduction aura of 10 with Terror casted and 16 when that particular unit is being targeted by VS with Stygian Desolator.Ouch!
-Butterfly
-Enables VS to attack faster,to attack different heroes effectively and seperately to reduce more enemy units' armor with Stygian Desolator.Also allows VS to be more presevere with ability to Dodge attacks.
-Heart of Tarrasque
-Greatly boosts VS's maximum hp and hp regeneration.Enables VS to stay in the battlefield as long as possible to maximize the period of the armor reduction aura for the enemies.
-Empty Bottle
-Heals VS the most effective way in a short period.Also gives VS ability to control Rune from the early games till the late games.Make VS more presevere without having to go back to base too.
