Introduction

Hello! My name is "Skipy" and this is my first guide.
Notice that this guide is not a "How to win every game" - guide.
But i tried alot with Drow and for my opinion its the best way to get OP in publicgames.

First of all Traxex is a really good carry and mid-hero! You should always try to go mid and die as less as possible! Farm mid till you reach lvl 6/7/8
(depends on how long you need for the Shadow Blade / Crystalys).
If you have your items go gank! Gank the **** out of the enemies until they're scared to go farm in lane except if they're 5 ppl haha.

When to pick Drow:
-no mid hero around
-no carry / hard carry around
-enemy team is full of magic dudes (Antimage: "Magic sucks")
-many melees (your team and enemies)
-wanna have some fun with bashing noobs

Items

Shadow Blade or Crystalys which first? Thats what you need to think about, its not the best choice to pick Shadow Blade first if there is a Bounty Hunter or Slardar who can track you but its up to you when to buy sb. Because you can gank so well and escape so easily.

Wraith Band:
Gives you good stats and a bunch of damage cheap (really good for early game).

Shadow Blade:
It gives you enough damage and attack speed to gank well! If you are in trouble just spam it to get out or use it to initiate with a good silence.

Crystalys:
Your slow and your attack speed gives you a high chance to crit very often usually upgraded fast to Daedalus.

Power Treads:
These are the right shoes for Drow! Don't forget to switch to agility for extra damage or strength for more health points.

Helm of the Dominator:
Heals you so you can keep ganking and farming and pushing, if needed / have enough money upgrade to Satanic.

Desolator:
No Furion around or someone who has one, its always good - for killing and for tower pushing.

Manta Style:
Not that much powerfull anymore, since the last update nerfed it - not stacking damage with Drow's ultimate anymore.

Divine Rapier:
Be careful. Uberdamage doesn' mean uberhealth points and armor. Always take a Black King Bar with you if you're going to buy a Divine.

Skills

Frost Arrows:
60% Slow on the last level is just IMBA. You cant do somethin against that slow except with Black King Bar or Omni's Repel. So it gives you enough time to hit the enemy if he tries to run away = dead.

Silence:
Psssshhhhhh.. silence! No magic = no troubles.

Trueshot Aura:
The reason why i'm skilling this in late game is because its % and because i dont want to push the lanes. So i think its not very effective in early game, i prefere the slow and the long silence for a good gank.

Marksmanship:
This ultimate gives Traxex bonus agility.
Bonus agility means bonus damage and bonus attack speed!
Also don't forget about the armor.
