We invest in first because it makes getting those Last Hits a lot easier at the beginning, and it's damage is quite significant that harassing players at the beginning of the game is EXTREMELY effective, honestly, if you see the enemy character just throw this arrow at him, it usually takes about an 8th or so of his health, and after 3-4 hits he'll be very worried and probably just go back tower-hugging. SERIOUSLY.
We also need to make sure is there, it's our only escape route, in later levels it provides such a huge travel boost it's sort of funny, you can zip across the entire map in about 20 seconds. This is not extremely important to build early, just one point, as everyone's sort of passive and doesn't have items that reveal stealthed units, so if things get tough just activate it and they can't really do anything to you, later on with AoE spells, you best also follow up on that with a mega fast sprint outta there. This skill is also useful for catching up to enemy heroes running away from a battle with half or less health.

Skills

General
OK, everything up to now was not as important as this, because how you play the character makes all the difference. For the first couple of levels, while things are still very slow, just farm creeps for gold and experience, and harass enemy players whenever you can.
Later on, co-ordinate with your team because you can travel across the map EXTREMELY quickly, so if anyone needs assistance, chances are you'll be there first. I spend most of my time just pushing lanes, I usually go top lane first, then when a tower is down, I help someone push any other lane.
Late-game, just, whatever, whatever your heart tells you. You're OP and can take on anyone, but stay away from groups, and stay far enough at the back in team fights so no one targets you, but close enough to unleash your hell fury.

KILLING ENEMIES
So, killing enemies is EXTREMELY easy with my build, I mean, seriously, if there's no one to help the guy a kill is guaranteed, I promise. Make sure you alt+w so that is autocast. Then find some creep with the highest max HP and use your ultimate on him. Then walk up to them and hope they don't have , if you do this tactic often smart players will get it so be weary, and target them so they lose it, as you can be seen by the whole team while in that persons vicinity. Then, active the so they can't silence, stun, or teleport away. Then, activate and simultaneously and laugh.

PUSHING LANES/DESTROYING BUILDINGS
Usually, when the time comes to just go through the tower, follow almost the same guide as killing enemy heroes, kill all the enemy creeps, if you have 4/5 creeps remaining, activate and and spam , this usually almost destroys the tower, and if you've creeps remaining by the end of your Attack Speed combo, keep spamming Searing Arrows and retreat in time, if enemy creeps come around stay there until your creeps are almost dead, or the tower is targeting you.

Throw a bkb and some points in your ult in this ***** and you've got a fairly normal clinkz build.

Did you add MoM in an edit or did I just not notice?

Ultimate on Clinkz sucks. Or at least for this kinda play. Anyway revising the guide now...

You are aware that MoM and Skadi don't stack at all let alone with your . Not only that, getting MoM is a waste of nearly 2k gold. By choosing it you're making yourself squishier than normal when you activate it and you have your which already provides more than enough attack speed while active to cause some serious damage.

Skadi only for stat boosts,
MoM is important because dude, +100 attack speed, if you activate everything fast enough they won't be able to do ****, as I said, Orchid, so they're powerless while you basically toy with them for 3-5 seconds. You know, Maybe you're right, I'll look into replacing Skadi for anti-squishiness, but MoM so far stays. As I said, if I have any revelations I'll update the guide, if I find something better I'll replace it. Only the best for you.

You would be better getting a which gives lifesteal + armor for near the same price as for orbwalking, then later turning into for increased tankyness and huge life gain. Throw either a or another defensive item in there and you wont have issues with squishiness.

Give it a go, there are a lot better options for you than .

Please explain why his ult is bad? Eating a centaur at level 6 gives you +550 hp and +55 damage. That is more than work the mana which you should have plenty of if you get an orchid.

Ult is bad because if there's a group of people, I just run, there's no hope in taking ALL of them down, and if there's only one, if he attacks he sort of signs a death wish unless he silences. (usually, I'm still working on it, and I'll update this particular guide whenever I find something.)
You guys make interesting points... I guess I'm going back to lengthy and numerous bot matches. *yay*

Ok, not trying to pick apart every choice in your guide. Trying to help improve it so it's not only better for you but for those who come and use it as well.

Ultimate: The ultimate as AngryTurtle said, I overlooked it just noticed that you were rocking 3 orbs and was like urgh. The ultimate is huge for you. Think of it as two free vitality boosters and nearly a free sacred relic every time you use it. That's not something to be frowned upon.

As a carry your team relies on you to do damage and to be able to sustain yourself long enough in a fight to end it. You should not be entering a group solo under any circumstances so your point with regards to ultimate is flawed.

Clinkz' ult is powerful if used correctly, granted it is a short duration that 550hp and 55dmg can help you survive that teamfight and win the game. All of Clinkz' abilities are equally important and are the very reason he makes such a good hard carry.

Made some changes, I'll do more matches and check, but I think my idea of using Clinkz as a Mega-Nuke was a lot more effective than this 19xx HP guy.
