great guide but I just wanna point out that Skywrath Mage is a great friend of Clock's.
Hook -> cogs -> battery -> Sky's silence -> Sky's Ult.
I agree, I should have added that. FIXED

An excellent guide. For once, the problem isn't formatting. The formatting is quite nice. Your Item and Skill builds are near impeccable, and your reasoning is sound
Basically, one of the best guides that I have ever seen.

Thanks, I appreciate it. Currently in the middle of mid-terms, currently writing a Gameplay guide for the Offlane
This guide ALMOST gets an upvote. However, i just cant condone maxing power cogs over your other skills.
Mathematically and practically, Cogs is the worst skill to have more than one point in. Dont get me wrong, the one point by itself merits an amazing skill, however in every scenario and lane imaginable having battery assault and rocket maxed will allow you to harass, kill, and farm much more safely and much more efficiently than cogs will.
For reference, mathematically Battery Assault QUADRUPLES in strength from levels 1-4, Rocket Flare TRIPLES in power and cooldown, whereas Power Cogs doesnt even double its strength in 3 of its scaling catagoeries.
Lastly i think Force Staff and Power Treads both deserve at least an honorable mention.
Other than that, its a nice guide, and if the build changes ill definetly consider upvoting it
I appreciate the feedback, and usually I would agree. However, this is Offlane
The problem comes in at this: You have an Item build, You have a Skill build, and you have an explanation of all the skills. That is all that there is to the guide.
It is already a good guide, but not a great one, because of of the lack of additional content. Which is weird, because it, quite manageably, tells everyone exactly what they need to know about a picking him up as a new hero. Basically, just perhaps make it bigger by adding new sections on other random things that you need to know, like justifications on, and when to get each of the Items that you mentioned.

Here's the great piece of advise people gave me when I started in Dota Fire too, to help with formatting, so you can have it all pretty and organized as you wish:

You have abyssal in the reject and luxury parts of the guide.
Other than that put mjollnir to luxury, it's very good on clock because he takes all the dmg which allows the mjollnir active to do its work.
Good idea, will add. Thanks!
Whoops my bad, will fix right away. I was debating putting it in there.
Very good formatting and the items are good. Consider adding
Thanks Man, I appreciate it. However,
