Kill and own and entire 5 man team with Lifestealer



If you want to starting owning with Lifestealer and kill an entire 5 man team this post is for you.
Lifestealer is one of the few heroes in Dota 2 that can jungle/bush on level 1 due to his spell Feast which gives your entire team an advantage and your self. Your team will have one extra solo lane and if you jungle/bush right you will also gain as much experience as a solo lane. Which means there are 3 people on your team gaining a lot of experience.  Lifestealer's spells are :
§  Rage- Lifestealer becomes magic immune and gains bonus attack speed . This spell is one of the most useful spells Lifestealer has because no spell can stun or damage you as long as the spell is active. Activate the spell when you know the enemy are going to stun you or when you want some extra attack speed.
§  Feast- Lifestealer gains health according to the current health of the enemy Lifestealer is attacking. This is why Lifestealer can Jungle/Bush exactly when the game starts and not like some other heroes who needs to farm up and get some items to be able to bush.
§  Open Wounds- Slows targeted enemy and allows all other allies to lifesteal from the target under the spell. Nice spell to use when you want to engage on a enemy target or using it for when enemies are getting away.
§  Infest- Lifestealer jumps into an targeted unit, Enemy Creep or Ally Hero/Creep. As long as Lifestealer is in the unit he is undetectable and can't be seen. If the targeted unit is a creep, Lifestealer will gain health according to the current health of the Creep. This spell is awesome to use when you want to escape the enemy's clutches or if you want to ambush and enemy hero or if you want a quick heal by just using this spell on a big neutral creep.

How you are going to play him is as follow

Farm hard. Start off with the small neutral creep camp to almost get to level 2. The reason why you are going to start at the small neutral creep camp is because they don't do so much damage so you won't lose so much health and you will have more health to spare at the next neutral camp.
Remember when you engage that you have your Rage spell which will make you magic immune. Be wise when you use it. You don't want to waste it and then die afterwards because you used it to early.
You can also infest an allied Hero. Usually its a good idea to jump into a melee ally hero because they need to run right up to the enemy to attack. This will get your Infest spell's damage in range to damage most of the enemy and it will surprise them. The element of surprise is always good.

What you are going to buy for Lifestealer

Power Treads / Phase Boots

Power Treads will give you some extra attack speed and make your more durable in team battles.
Phase Boots will give you that extra bit of damage and if you are chasing a hero down or running away from you can always phase. Giving you a lot of extra movement speed.

Hand of Midas

This item depends on you. If you want to farm for 20 minutes and then join the team battles. Get this item. If not I personally think this just delays your farm.

Skull Basher

Gives you some extra damage and enables you to get a 25% chance on stunning a target for 1.4 seconds on an attack.

Assault Cuirass

Very nice item to get because it gives you +10 bonus armor which makes you a lot more tankier and a +35 bonus attack speed making you hit faster. It also gives an aura to your allies of +20 bonus attack speed and +5 armor, also a aura to your enemies of -5 armor.

Mjollnir

Adds a +80 bonus attack speed and a 25% chance to damage the enemies with Chain Lightning dealing an extra 160 damage. This item also has a activate ablility,  giving a target the ability of static charge. What this does is on every attack an enemy does to the target under the effect of Static Charge will have a chance on releasing another Chain Lightning.

Desolator

Increases your damage by +60 and on every attack you give you minus the targets armor by -7 points. Meaning you start hitting like a truck.

Daedalus

Daedalus is also a very good choice. Because you sometimes hit Critical Strikes. A 25% Chance to do 240% of your base damage. Nuking down targets.

Monkey King Bar


If you are tired of hitting miss. Get this item. It enables you to get True Strike ability. What this does is it enables you to never miss an attack and it increases your damage by +88 points, a +15 Attack Speed bonus and a 35% chance to do a mini Bash which deals an extra 100 damage.
