Thank you all for your response, good and bad. No one is perfect at their first move and I hope to improvise on the formatting crisis in my next guide on Slark.
Try what I have written and then comment if you lose a single game, provided you played the exact way I had put forth. I am not forcing you into this, but you'll get addicted soon.
Monkey King Bar is preferred over Daedalus due to the higher chances of an agility enemy carry to get a butterfly especially in higher ranked MMR games say 5000+.
Like others said this guide needs formatting. My favorites being color, bold, database shortcuts: Legion Commander,
icons:
rule:
and columns:
Turns the enemies' numbers against them, dealing damage and granting you bonus movement speed per unit or per hero. Deals bonus damage to illusions and summoned units as a percent of their current health.
Removes debuffs and disables from the target friendly unit, and grants bonus attack speed and health regen for a short time.
When attacked, Legion Commander has a chance to immediately counterattack with bonus lifesteal.
Legion Commander and the target enemy hero are forced to attack each other for a short duration. Neither hero can use items or abilities. If either hero dies during the duration, the hero winning the Duel gains permanent bonus damage. Upgradable by Aghanim's Scepter.
Using all these in combonation looks really nice. I believe I saw a link to a formatting guide up in these comments somewhere.
As for your build you really need to get Overwhelming Odds at like level 3 at least. My persaonal build I max it first because it is that good. The burst of speed helps to get in there and Duel, as well as damaging them so you can win Duel easier. Without that movement speed they'll see it a mile away.
This is really an okay guide, just get more OO and format it. Do that and I might give it 1+.
I don't like the skillbuild at all. The power peak of a nuke is early in the game. rightclicks get more viable later in the game. maxing your carry spells first, which are already good with 1 skillpoint, seems a waste for me. You totaly miss the period Overwhelming Odds can devestate the enemy. It is a really strong nuke, especially in the laningstage. It also helps with getting a Duel because it lowers the foes hp and gives you extra movementspeed.
Moment of Courage gives already good lifesteal with 1 level and taking more levels in it early in the game doesn't increase nor your dps nor your lifesteal. Because you don't hit that hard.
Press the Attack gives more hp regen and attackspeed by leveling it up but in a duel time it is only 1 attack maximum you will get extra in a duel. What is like 80-100 physical damage which get reduced by armor.
Even if you go jungle you can still max Overwhelming Odds firt by just getting passive and heal at level 1 and 2 and than just max nuke.
I hope you see why maxing nuke over carryspells is better on actually every hero.
Also on your item build you say into lategame items s&y, skadi and mkb. In the other build you say ac and mjolnir. I don't really get why you place in the first build those 3 items.
1) s&y is a situational midgame item not a late game item.
2) mkb should only be purchased against evasion, otherwise there are better options like daedalus or abyssal blade.
3) You shouldn't get a shadow blade and a blink dagger. One mobility item is more than enough.
However i really like the skadi, it is an item under purchased on lc but is really strong on her.
Don't get discouraged because of me because i do like the guide.
I liked the content too, but I want to read an explanation on your skill build - LC skill build is not set on stone I think, so it's nice to know why you chose this one particularly and not the one which skills Overwhelming Odds first.
If you do that and some formatting, you have my +1 indeed.
As far as content goes, it doesn't look all too bad. However, the formatting is nonexistent. Nobody is going to read your guide if you don't format it.
