Optional/Situasional Items
For Carry heroes, usually they go to the lane with disablers and support heroes which can help them to achieve their item fastly. But for me, when i used the early ganker build( See the skill build on above), i do the opposite.But for those of you who want to play the game with something common, then do like most people would do. If you are Sentinel, go on the bottom lane, and as the opposite for the Scourge.
Early game's Strategy
General :
You're a late gamer so you're effective in late game. Buy your items and pick a lane. If the lane is hard because of heavy lane controllers, better call for a lane switch. Last hit creeps as much as possible. When you reach level 4, level 5 or level 6, your teammates will expect a gank so participate in early ganks as much as possible with your Charge of Darkness and try not to get reckless with it.
Early Ganker Type :
Always moving after you reach level 2. With just CoD and Greater Bash + Great Support from your teammates on the lane, it will easy for you to ganking. Do CoD in the last moment before the enemy of you start to running back, make them think that you doesn't have CoD. Believe me, people will take you easy in the early game, so make a surprised of it.
Mid Game's Strategy
Once you have an MoM and some core items then you can kill any lone hero without breaking a sweat. Don't charge enemy heroes who have their comrades with them, except you have your own comrades there too.
Sometimes an expert enemy team will try to lure you out by letting someone squishy from their team come out of the map. Once your fooled and you fell into their gank, you're dead. Even the score is 1 vs 1, Your life is still more precious thanks to your carry roles. What you must do is always cautious with the movement of your enemies.
Note : Don't charge disabler by yourself. It is useless. They can disabling you then running away. If you still want to kill him, bring someone with you. And remember to bring a TP(Town Portal) !
Late Game's Strategy
If you're completely farmed, no one can stop you.When a war occur, let someone from your team initiate first then go for the Charge. As usual, charge the enemy with the most squishy HP.
