>>> My Skill Build <<<

Strafe

- A reason why Clinkz is great in dealing damage.
- I only start learning this skill at level 4.
- Normally I only put one or two points on this skill as 4 to 6 seconds is more than enough at early game.
- Longer duration is good, but Clinkz needs more stats in early game.

Searing Arrows

- Good farming and damage dealing skill.
- This is the skill I always max first.
- I start learning this skill at level 2 and add a point to it whenever I can.
- Good to harass enemy hero using this too, as you can this manually on enemy hero (such attack will not attract enemy creeps).

Wind Walk

- Great skill which helps Clinkz a lot.
- Helps to escape since it makes him invisible.
- Helps to backstab enemy easily.
- Normally I only learn one level of this, at level 1.

- Sometime I put another skill point to it if I need better movement speed.




Death Pact

- Its usefulness depends on the enemies on your lane.
- I only learn this if my enemy is good in harassing.

Bonus Attributes



I start adding this after I max Searing Arrows and having 1 level of Wind Walk.

>>> My Item Build <<<

Power Tread (PT)

- PT is good enough for Clinkz.
- I always use a Strength PT for Clinkz as he badly needs the extra HP.
- Boot of Travel on Clinkz is more like a waste.

Wraith Band



Bracer

- I get Wraith Bands and Bracers at early game.
- They help quite a lot in early game.

Monkey King Bar (MKB)



- Great combo with Clinkz's high attack speed.

Eye of Skadi (EoS)

- Helps to slow the prey of Clinkz.
- Helps to boost HP of Clinkz.
- Stacks perfectly with Searing Arrows' orb effect.

Buriza-do Kyanon

- Great in dealing damage.

The Butterfly

- Helps Clinkz in evasion.
- Greatly increase attack speed and damage.




Black King Bar (BKB)



- Helps Clinkz to counter his biggest weakness - disables.
- Also add some HP for Clinkz.

>>> Why I do not get other items <<<

1. Sange and Yasha?
- Not a good choice since maim totally doesnt stack with Searing Arrows.

2. Stygian Desolater?
- Again doesnt stack with Searing Arrows.
- But you may buy it and use it this way: first attack on enemy without using Searing Arrows, therefore enemy will suffer armor reduction (effect from Desolater), then the following attacks using Searing Arrows.

3. Heart of Tarrasque?
- Yeah I do get it if my enemies are good in dealing damage.
- Very good to boost HP.

>>> How I play <<<

- Normally I solo with Clinkz.
- I keep using Searing Arrows manually to farm and harass enemy hero.
- At early game I used to play safe, getting one level of Wind Walk, max level of Searing Arrows, and one level of Strafe Fire, then I boost the stats.
- I start killing when I get the components of MKB.
- The way I uses to kill my prey is, I Wind Walk to the back of the enemy, auto-cast Searing Arrows, then use Strafe and start attacking my target.
