Warning!

This guide is a PARODY. If you actually use this guide you will most likely lose. It really sucks.

Items and Why

Now, when in lane, you often take lots of damage, because the creeps are OP in this game and do way too much damage. I mean, how can I auto attack to farm if they almost kill me every time?! So, you need lots of regen. Get 4 salves. Those will help a lot.
Now what you want with Riki is damage. What item gets you the most damage? Divine Rapier. So don't get any other item, just rush the Divine. If you die, get another one. Simple.

Skills and Why

First, get Blink Strike. Blink Strike is great for getting up to the enemy and attacking them. If they go under their tower, just Blink Strike them anyway. It occasionally gets you a kill.
Next, get Back Stab. It really helps to get behind the creeps and auto attack them from the back, as that does extra damage and that's good.
Your first ability, Smoke Screen, is useless. It is way too hard to remember to use it, and it doesn't seem to do anything. It says it silences enemies, but that doesn't do damage, so it has no purpose.
You ultimate makes you permanently invisible unless you are attacking. If anyone attacks you while invis, report them immediately. They have remembered to get a Gem of True Sight, Dust of Appearance or Sentry Wards. It is beyond the capacity of human brain to do that, so they obviously have hacks.

How to Play as Riki

At the start of the game, try to get mid if at all possible. Make sure you threaten to feed if you don't get mid.
At mid, attempt to kill the enemy in lane as much as possible. Blink Strike him, then right click on him. Occasionally you will get a kill from this technique.
As soon as you reach lvl 6, you no longer need to last hit, as you are Riki and who needs last hits? Instead, abandon your lane and leech exp off other lanes. When a chance appears, use the same technique you used in mid. This may be slightly more effective now. Do this until you get your Divine. With your Divine, you are unkillable, so if the other team kills you, report them, as they are obviously hacking.
At this point, you're team will follow you around to steal your kills. They will try to tell you they were "pushing", but that is not a part of DOTA, so these excuse should b ignored and the speaker reported. The best way to deal with so-called pushing is to let the other team kill your team, then solo the whole enemy team. Remember, if they kill you thy are hacking. Report, obviously.
If you cannot get your Divine by the end of the game, it is because your team purposely fed. Report them.
And last but not least, if you lose with Riki, the other team is hacking and your team fed. Report everyone.

Conclusion

As you can see, Riki is the best hero in the game. Pros always call him a noob hero, but they just are jealous that their ego doesn't allow them to play good heroes. Riki had no weaknesses. He is just OP.
If somebody on the other team picks Riki, just rage quit early.
