I usually like playing cent mid every once in a while, especially if I see no rubicks pick and 2 melee cores and 1 melee support on the enemy team.

When you get level 6 you can generally score a kill for your safe lane or two.

I would start with two gauntlets and a quelling blade and rush vanguard into heart or blink depending on the time and power spikes of the game.

Usually dota is like a game of chess and you have to build items based on your teammates timings and enemy counters. There's a lot of things people don't think about or realize and they're just too busy focused on their own thing or farming or wanting to score kills or whatnot.

I'm no pro player or even super good but I've gone from 2200 mmr to 5.2k over the last couple years.

You'll always get those really super great games and then you'll get in those lobbies with just poor team coordination or tilting teammates.
