Fast Farm Pubstomp Guide for Anti-Mage!

Intro

Hello and welcome to my guide. This is a quick guide on how to pubstomp. From my experience, you will not want to use this build/guide in competitive play. A-M needs farm, and with this build you should be getting it very fast. This build is for fastest possible woods farming and then TPing around the map farming pushed lanes. It's pretty badly written but hopefully you will get the info you need to pubstomp.

Items

I usually grab a Quelling blade to help my last hitting in lane (I'm pretty bad at them). If you want to though, you can grab a sheild and work into a fast poor man's. The reason you go into a poor mans is because it will help you survive in the jungle and lane. I will usually stay in lane with a partner until I grab a quick battlefury and then head into the woods. Once you get your battlefury, head into the woods and start your farm frenzy! Power Treads will come up very soon (put them on Agi) and vlads will be not very far afterwards. Vlads will give you damage (for your team also)/armor/lifesteal/hp regen, and you will be able to walk out of the ancients with full HP. At this point I would usually stay in jungle until I get my Yasha before i start teamfighting, but if my team needs me, there is no problem with teamfighting after vlads.

Skills

Why max blink? When you get into the woods, you can quickly blink to the next creep camps. Maxing Mana Break simply isn't worth it because you should be getting into the woods asap and the extra 38 damage to SOME creeps compared to blinking from camp to camp, it's just more efficient to max blink. You also don't need boots, either, when you get into woods saving the time to farm boots and get you into the woods asap.

Overview

Max blink, get battlefury as fast as possible (I can usually get at about 13-15 minutes), get into the woods and get your farm on! When you hit 35 minutes you'll usually have about 300 cs and should be by far the strongest hero on the map. Remember to TP to empty lanes, take the farm, and hop back into the woods :D.

Consider an Abyssal Blade, or even try it out. It gives great damage, and allows you to oneshot almost all heroes if executed properly. You would blink on top of a hero, use Manta and Abyssal, burning their mana from full to 0, and ulting to finish them off. I tend to go Battlefury->Manta->Heart, or Battlefury->Vlad's->Manta->Abyssal. A Vlad's with a Heart seems less useful than without one. Still a great lategame item, but I tend to go for Abyssal instead. This is by no means "a mandatory change" just something I would like to bring up, because of it's value, try it out!

Oh and with your build you may be squishy after Vlad's. Consider picking up the ultimate orb before Yasha when working on your Manta

Hmm, I haven't really used basher much on AM, guess it makes sense though, with his crazy attack speed. Thanks for the post, i'll try it out a few times and see how it works.
Update: It worked very well for me, i've updated the guide to include an abyssal.
