Intro

Clinkz is a very dangerous mid-game to late-game carry/pusher. Strafe + Searing Arrows along with Death Pact is absolutely a destructive combo. Clinkz has everything he needs in his skills. Strafe for attack speed, Searing Arrows for damage, Skeleton Walk for escaping, and Death Pact as a temporary but beneficial Health Boost and Damage.

Early

Since Clinkz is very fragile, you would want to play it safe until you have your Orchid Malevolence. Use Searing Arrow to last hit creeps. Use Skeleton Walk for obvious reasons such as escaping. You need to farm your Power Treads and your Aquila/Medallion early. You should probably stay away from team battles unless it's necessary. Just keep farming when you have the opportunity.

Mid-Game

Once you have your Orchid Malevolence, you can now solo kill heroes that are by themselves. You can also be dominant in clashes since you now have a silence. Remember to silence enemy heroes that rely on their spells for the majority of their damage, or prevent heroes from escaping such as Anti-Mage or Weaver. You should probably put yourself in a good position first before attacking. Also remember to use Death Pacton Neutrals before a team battle when you have a chance. But, when your teammates are already fighting, don't run off to the nearest neutral camp, just use it on a normal creep. Always use the Strafe with Searing Arrows. When there isn't much action going on, just keep farming and pushing lanes. Remember to use Skeleton Walk if enemies are suspiciously missing. Keep in mind that using Death Pact can also give you health if you are low.

Late-Game

At this time, you should have your Monkey King Bar. Group up with your team and push lanes or kill Roshan. You should be dominating this part of the game and should be able to end the game quickly if you keep grouping up with your team.

Good explanation. I see nothing wrong with Orb of Venom.

If you're going to get orb of venom you might as well build it into a skadi at one point. I'll actually give a +1, but I've honestly only played clinkz once or twice years ago.

You do not need it, at all. Focus on having mana and being extremely mobile. I am not 100% sure on this, but Orb of Venom is an Orb even for Ranged right? You would be much better off spending that Orb of Venom gold on more productive items, like parts of your Orchid Malevolence or a situation item to address your needs: Remember you are the squishiest thing in the game.

You are right. I realized 4% slow isn't that good. I moved to the "optional items" list. Thank you very much for pointing that out. On the other hand, I don't appreciate the -1 just because of the Orb of Venom.

It's been reported in the Dev forums that it is a bug. They would probably fix it soon.

I thought that it says that it is a unique modifier on both arrows and Orb of Venom so they cant stack
