Author's Ability Notes


Great ability for zoning enemies early, as well as farm jungle inbetween ganks. Crits are good for trading hits and farming jungle early, skeletons are great for zoning opponents and farming jugle early on. Note that you can also use wards to guide your skeletons around.
Good skill to learn at level 1 for a kill potential. Otherwise get it on level 2 and keep it level 1 for a while.
Signature skill that makes a decent tank out of us. You can skip it early on if you don't want to waste it without a purpose.

Author's Item Notes


Early

One of WK's main problems is mana. With Soul Ring it mostly gets solved.

Core

Even while it's position 4 WK, you still need to get Blink Dagger to initiate. You lack mobility in general and it helps to keep up, but ability to escape after ult most of the time or initiate with almost instant stun is too valuable.

Situational Early

Useful for early farming
Cheap stats, mana regen and movement speed - all that position 4 WK might need.

Utility

Works well against a lot of magic damage
Works well againt summons
Amplifies damage from skeletons, gives cheap armor and miss chance.

Lategame

One of the most underrated aspects of WK. It helps to make huge impact in fights even after somebody died. Especially good with burst initiation.
Buff for both your armor and attack speed. Works well with summons and great aura to have.
Alternatively, if your team already have AC, you can get Shiva's instead. It's not as good for your hero, but it's still great item to have

Situational

Against high physical damage
Good for finishing early
You're naturally pretty tanky and have two lives, so Blade Mail seems like a good purchase.
Natural upgrade for Urn and one of the strongest support items
