Calix by Bluesapphire

Calix stats are up to discussion but the most underlying parts about the hero is that:

- Small sized mana pool
- Agility is his primary attribute.
- Limited shots with a decently sized disarm time.
- Hp is low and Movement speed is okay to below average.

+ His base attack damage is around 60 - 65
+ Base attack time is medium to fast
+ Projectile speed is fast
+ Spikes Mid Game and has an incredibly strong late game.
+ Through talents he can modify his playstyle to be crowd control or full-out damage.

Core
This hero is definitely a "Core Only" hero, with a limited amount of attacks and a large arsenal of variety. This is the kind of hero you want in your mid game team fights.

Because of the variety of talents he has at his disposal, he can build to be a control type hero, solid for a mid lane in the mid-game. He can also be purely built as a Carry, with an opportunity for shots that life Steal and True Strike in his attacks. As you can see, his talent tree is built so that he can decide which half of his Set of bullets he wishes to utilize, or the player can simply split between them and choose one thing from each side (ETC Stun and Lifesteal).

This makes his playstyle ranging but also all over the place if the player cannot itemize and skill the correct talents he can easily become a very irrelevant hero later on. His ultimate relies on the enemy being injured in the first place and has problems being easily chased down.

Core items would be damage increasing and defensive items such as BKB, Butterfly, Skadi, Silver Edge, Hurricane Pike.
Other Situational items include Blink Dagger, Assault Cuirass, Bloodthorn, MKB.
