Introduction

Since ancient times it has been prophesized by the Tauren elders that a Chieftain will come, strong as the mightiest warriors and wise as the eldest shamans. After many years of wandering the sacred lands, seeking wisdom from his forefathers, Cairne Bloodhoof has proven himself as the long awaited hero. Cairne carries with him the spirit of his mightiest ancestor, and now the ground shakes with the combined strength of the Chieftain and his guardian spirit. No physical nor magical barrier can reduce the power of his enchanted halberd, the weapon used by his guardian in ancient times. Such is the power of this axe that it can split the very earth itself. Seeking revenge for the ravaging of his homeland, Cairne will soon bring his wrath upon the Scourge

Elder Titan is a hero who brings presence to team fights. He can fill a variety of roles, but his talent lies in initiating and team fighting. The Worldsmith revels in teaming up with heavy hitters and crowd controllers. His flexible playstyle and independance of items makes him a fearsome opponent that is hard to put down.

Brief Build Reasoning

Reason:This is a guide which I have discovered from my own experience playing as Elder Titan, I knew this hero had a lot more potential hidden behind the regular semi-carry / Support-Initiator builds I see all the time.

The items I have shown are for maximum damage output. This is achieved by the build giving you early game speed boost (Mask of Madness with Armlet of Mordiggian) and abilities focusing on damage output. (Maxing Ancestral Spirit / Natural Order early-game)

Your Urn of Shadows will help you stay full hit points so you do not need to waste time teleporting back and forth from base and also to use as damage over time in early-game to get any faster opponent running away.You run speed should not be a weakness for you with Mask of Madness and Ancestral Spirit aiding it most if not in all fights.

Once you approach mid-game you can advance your items to your own taste, this is why I have left the item choice quite open. Elder Titan can be very diverse. You can chose a mini-stun item like Skullbasher to keep your foes at your feet. You could build Crystalis for extremely high critical damage when mixed with Ancestral Spirit. It's all a mater of what you would prefer to use, Elder Titan has extremely strong physical damage as well as nice magical damage when using this build type.

Going into late game I would say you need to experiment, chose an item from my luxury list and build towards it. Some if not most will work for you but others will work best against certain heroes. (Choose Wisely)

Go now hero and unleash the secret wrath of Elder Titan! 1 Shot-Honcho!

Illusion: NO Unless no one else is nearby.

Haste: SITUATIONAL, allows for you to get into position.
