Sometimes I buy Phase Boots over Arcane, because soul ring doing almost the same job but omni have more potential on 1 v 1 kill due to +24 damage and i think phase is in synergy with degen aura especially when chasing hero and using purification as dd. Plus Necromicom can be an advantage in some cases together with int staff's.
Good guide, I really like this guide. I was using during my first omni pub game. I did great! Got 1 kill, 3 deaths, and 26 assists. We won. I love playing as Omniknight now!
I used this guide when just started playing Omniknight, thanks for familiarising me with him, but I don't like your starting items choice.
Getting recipe of Soul Ring at start with tangos and branches is all you need, doing SR as your first item, of course. Then you get Arcane Boots right away.
You can rush Arcane Boots as first item as well if you have lanemate that needs it.
I don't see why you need Ring of Basilius at all, the mana-boost is small and Omniknight don't need this armour bonus as he is durable enough. I think it's bad choice even if it's not pub, you can sustain on single Soul Ring just fine. Other than that is exactly how I play.
Just started playing Omniknight today as part of basically my first month of DOTA and this build has been a fantastic help. The skill tree works wonders, Purification is ridiculously good for harassing and healing Heroes (the number of times I assisted a Hero in a teamfight with it, or even saved their *** in the aftermath) - plus it's just bare fun striding around with Auras coming out of your ears.
My only complaint is the written section of your guide is in serious need of editing. It looks pretty vile compared to a lot of other builds I've read on this site and it's a bit dissuading - your item and skill builds might get read, but not your actual notes of implementation.
It's clear you play a solid Omnibro, however! Great guide!

BKB on Omniknight??? You have a free BKB on the W of your keyboard.
Getting Guardian Angel off in fights is a must, and you can't always Repel yourself. Although Black King Bar isn't an every game pickup on Omniknight, it has it's place.
+Rep/+1 for cookie cutter Omniknight guide.
