This is the hero I've chosen to play with, I typically only play one hero in games like this until I feel I have gotten a good solid build down with them both items and skills wise. As well as being able to smash faces in. I have 14 games now under my belt with Atin and when built properly he is a lean-mean-cutting machine. My preference with him is the 2h sword over the alternative oh dual wielding. I'll briefly explain the pros and cons of each...
| 2-h Sword | |
| Pros Higher p.damage with auto attacks Swing damage effect (Anything the swing hits can be damaged, I've hit 6 enemies with 1 swing before) |
Cons Slower attack speed Easier to miss with |
| Dual Wielding Swords | |
| Pros Quicker attacks Easier to hit with Each sword does damage (so you can hit up to 2 people at once or one person twice) |
Cons Lower p.damage with auto attacks Lower dps (since the 2h can hit 5-6 creeps at once) |
Now I break the game up into points, early - middle - late game. As with most games like this there are certain items and such I expect myself to have at those points. I've gotten my general build down to something that works very well for hero killing as well as building crushing. Before doing my item build however I'll show the skills I take and why I choose them over the alternatives.

Skills Justification
This build is meant to make this hero an insane dpser with his auto attacks more so than a skill spammer. This build allows him to be viable early - middle - late game, with late game him being near impossible to kill by any hero. If you're doubting it, then tell that to my 1k damage auto attack crits with my 45% chance to crit and boosted attack speed. My last game I played went 3 vs 5 from the start with 2 of my teamates leaving, we played it out and I ended up going 18-1 and killing 90% of the buildings myself.
