[Daily Hero tl;dr #7] Spectre

I've been spending a lot of time on supports and gankers, I'm gonna do a hard carry now.

TL;DR

• Skills - Dagger (1,3,5,7) Dispersion (2,4,8,9) Desolate (10,12,13,14) Haunt (6,11,16)
• Items (lane) - Stout shield, regen, branches, quelling if needed
• Items (early) - Phase, Vanguard
• Items (later) - Radiance into Manta, Heart, Bfly
• Tips - farm a lot, grab easy kills on the way, push everything once you get rad.

The thing with carries is that you are very reliant on your team to do what they are supposed to do: keep you alive. Your goal is really to farm Radiance as soon as possible, because once you do you basically win the game.

In lane, your main goal is creep kills. You shouldn't be leaving for ganks, but that doesn't mean you can't kill your lane. Don't go super crazy, but grab the easy kills and keep farming away.

I hate writing a guide like this, because then new players think it's okay to just sit and farm all game, which really it isn't. Heroes like this tand to make the games long and boring and personally I think they should be avoided. But it's inevitable she will get picked, so you may as well play her correctly.

Once you farm up Rad it's time to win. Hopefully you got it at a reasonable time, but it's time to push now. Get together with your team, push down towers, and Haunt during team fights to confuse your enemy.

Now I personally take Dispersion over Desolate, but many people argue the other way. Chances are you aren't really doing much at those levels anyway, so it doesn't matter. But take what you will, it depends on the game a lot.
