"My Lightning Raws!" Illumination's Guide to Razor - Lightning Revenant (6.81 !)

Why is Faceless Void on the slow hero list? His Time Walk with 700 range on lvl 1 can out 'blink' the link from razor which has a range of 600. So basically on lvl 1 faceless can, as long as he has the mana, break the link with time walk any time.

thanks.. i think, and yes armlet is not that viable but it could be useful with escaping (armlet toggle) so you might want to add that in if you already haven't because it can be really useful. And just to add I haven't played Razor in a while so my play-style may not be the best but hey if this works for people then sure why not.

Interesting play-style of Razor from you, dude. The reason I included Mekansm is just from some pro players used to build it a lot for mid/offlane solo Razor. And the Armlet part as well, it's not that recommended anyway. Thanks for commenting !

Having played Razor as my first hero I have a couple of points that could be improved on in the item build and the skill build:

I would never build refresher on Razor due to it's large cost and the only bonus is two ults which you don't really need with the relatively short cooldown once the duration ends.

Another point is that Mekansm is not a great item on [{Razor]] because you could build a Yasha which is better imo.

Tranquil Boots, never get this on Razor because you should be right clicking creeps or hero's all the time.

Power Treads personally I prefer Phase Boots because as an agility hero you don't need the extra attack speed and as Razor I don't believe that you should be spamming Plasma Field as I only use it to kill those who run out of 'clicking' range so the bonus mana stats u could get are not so useful. Phase Boots are better imo because you can chase down a lot of hero's combined with Unstable Current

Armlett is not advisable on Razor because if you get stunned with it active, your screwd, also you don't need the bonus attack speed from it as I mentioned above. Also you don't get as much bonus damage as a strength hero.

My final point is that I like to get 2 points of Unstable Current before level 11 because of the extra speed. it's quite nice for chasing/running away.

please note that this is from experience and how I like to play Razor

I would say please remove Vanguard because the item it self is useless on Razor it's outdated but it only has some small effect. Also Tranquil Boots are no longer good for carry and durable, initiator heroes but only to support. Don't know about Armlet of Mordiggian but I don't think it's good on him. The rest is fine.

Nice, very well writen guide, I like the friends and foes section, very detailed. Good item explanation also. I personally prefer maxing Static Link first because al lvl7 224 damage is really goood, you should try it and see the enemy carry ask himself how did he die so fast and Plasma Field is not that spammable.
A few things if you will:

1. Tranquil Boots is kinda bad now after the nerf, because you will always have them broken
2. Vanguard is not all that great because you get only half damage block as Razor is ranged
3. Drum of Endurance is an excellent item as it gives you everything you need plus speed bonus, this way you can skip an ealry point in unstable current

And Eye of Skadi is not the most expensive item in the game:)

very good for a first guide, keep up the good work!

Hi there, nice guide :) But it is a bit vague, you should give people a bit more of an idea because beginners reading this guide really wont really know what to get ie. give one choice of boots instead of 3 :) More of a pack of information than a guide so perhaps if you narrow it down a bit more, and be more specific you will be able to help people more in actual play :) Also try correct some of the grammatical and spelling errors and it should be a bit easier to read. If you get these things done, ill be more than happy to give it a +1 :) Goodjob on your first guide!
