I really like the hero, but i pretty much always lose when i play support, especially with rubick ;_; Although i would say recently im becoming good at him.

Skillbuild is mostly just maxing tele and fade bold. Sometimes i get null earlier, but 1 point isnt really much value, so you have to commit to it.

Arcanes since he NEEDS dat mana.
Usually blink rush followed by force. But against certain enemies like clock, riki and some others force first.
If i manage to get items after that probably ghost sceper, or if i would become rich aghs or hex.

offtopic : 3 Scepters are Ghost Aghs and Dagon isn't it? Not Euls rite???

on topic : I never get null field first or second, it's always last. Telekinesis first, Fade Bolt second.

Item build is always courier to ward to regeneration items. Boots is always arcane. ALWAYS!!!

I sometimes get Force Staff, but i mostly get Blink Dagger. Instant initiation is nothing to laugh at. And what is better than Blink Dagger? Accompanied by Force Staff! Blink right in front of them, lift them up and force the hell away!

Get basic positioning items; Blink Dagger/force staf

Buy small pickup items: Urn of Shadows, Bracer

One point in null field is okay, i guess.. but you shouldnt max it first because i dont think Rubick will be staying in a lane for long
Don't Worry, Be Happy

Late credits to Janitsu for the sig

He's one of my favorite supports, but the last times I played him the results weren't good.

Rubick needs that Arcane Boots. He's very mana intensive. Urn of Shadows are one of my favorites for him, then Force Staff and if needed, Blink Dagger. Other things beside it is luxury.

For the skill builds, early Null Field is viable only if their team is magical damage focused - Zeus, Lion, Skywrath Mage, things like that.
