I havent been here in a while but, TRhe reason why I havent added Pudge into the counters is because hes a perfect 50/50! Razor can screw him up just as much as Pudge can screw up Razor! Also Zachbry, I don't usually take personal builds into consideration because that is how YOU play him. there is not right or wrong. My build is there to guide people in a way that emphasizes Razor's strengths, ie Focusing on synergy with spells... While it may be true for the items you mentioned some are better on other heroes than Razor. That being said if u can pull off those items f**king tops mate! hats off to ya :P

I have some problems concerning some of your items choices there:

Completing to Daedalus is not really necessary, this is a mediocre choice for that matter. Daedalus has very little contribution, Razor needs damage item's not critical strikes item's. Items that gives chunk of damage is way better than critical damages. When comes to late game, Daedalus will fall off as a useless item if the enemy has good armor and hp. Better not buy Crystalis at the first place. Daedalus should be place in Gimmick rather than Situational item. This is my personal opinion.

This are my some of my items choices that should be include in the list:

Bloodstone is good in the list too. It's more situational not really recommended. When obtaining Bloodstone can reduce death cool down(respawn) making Razor annoying and with the Boots of travel, he can teleport back to enemy base to finish his business. And it give like 150 mana regine, i think, and losing mana won't be a problem if you are carrying Mekanism or items that requires allot of mana.

Orhcid is good with Razor when he toe to toe with int heroes or heroes can disable, stun or slow you. Silencing that enemy hero can give you an advantages or optune to win or run. Plus it gives 4 second silence and it's way cheaper than any silence items, i guess.

Armlet is a good combination with Mekanism, when you are about to die activate Armlet then Mekanism. Together can improve survivability and Armlet give good life steal, grants attack speed, armor and damages. An item worth for your coins.

Crimson Guard, for one reason this items block allot or some damages and it's good for team clashing against enemy heroes who are dealt with more damage than you and your team have.

Radiance! cause Radiance!

Divine Rapier, it rapes down your enemy\ies. 'nough said. But if you drop it, then GG, it's all your fault.

I feel Veil of Discord and Satanic is good but they are mediocre, Veil of Discord has an active spell that give more magical damage to your enemies. It also synergies with your plasma field and Shiva's guard. Satanic gives allot of attack speeds and the best life steal item. Satanic needs Heart of Tarasque, if Satanic alone the item is deemed as carrying a useless poop.

Mjolnir, has an active shield(when enemy\ies touch you, they will be dealt with damage) and gives attack speed also hitting give a percent chance to hit that can extend to more enemies than usual.

Urn of Shadow, an item is good for you if you are carrying the game and having a killing spree. Has an active spell that grant HP regen to you or your ally.

I pulled a stunt!

Having a refresher orb is purely awesome with a combination of Shiva's guard and blink dagger. When your team are clashing, make sure your ultimate is not on cool down so as your plasma field and Shiva's guard. Blink in the middle of the clash, activate Shiva's guard, plasma field and your ultimate and then activate refresher orb then do the same thing again. Seeing your enemies die so easily. Make sure you have Black King bar to protect your self from stuns.

I personally buy crystalis cause it gives a bonus damage to Razor when static link and also mask of madness to increase the attack speed and make Razor survivable but mask is not really good. Mask is good for 1 on 1, meka is more better, it's more team benefit if you want Razor as a semi-support.

Usually this are my items:
Crystalis upgraded to Daedalous
Heart of Taraskue
Black king bar
Shiva's guard
Assault Cuirass
Orchid Malevolence

Daedalous is so good on Razor's static link when ever Razor sap full damage, making Razor have easy time to kill the enemy.
Orchid is good to silent the enemy hero, when enemy hero has blademail or other items that has active ability.
Shiva's guard gives Razor a ice blast of aoe damage thus letting you plasma field for additional damage and you can easily activate your super skill and with the help of your Assault Cuirass to decrease enemy hero's armor making them easy to kill. radiant can be good too but is not really recommended on him. Razor relies on items that help improve his stat's and items that synergies with his skills.
The rest of the items is to make Razor a tankable hero cause he is only good at early to mid game not late.

@Doctor Biscuit: This guide deserves an update suitable for current 6.82 patch. Definitly avoid abandoning, already much thought has spent on this.

Easy, Razor is a semi carry (or utility) hero. Satanic is a carry oriented item, and razor will not play this role. Razor needs more items that can give him tankiness power and auras/debuff abilities at the same time.
