My usual item build on Gyro has always been: Phase Boots + Ring of Aquila --> Helm of the Dominator --> Black King Bar --> Monkey King Bar.

However, recently Sange and Yasha has seen a huge resurgence on a large number of agility carries (even those that have traditionally built a Manta, like Luna). Given this I'm trying to analyze what item build up would be optimal for a safe lane farming Gyro.

Here are a few item builds that I can think of.

1. Phase Boots + Ring of Aquila --> Sange and Yasha --> Black King Bar --> Butterfly --> Satanic (highly defensive build)

2. Phase Boots + Ring of Aquila --> Drum of Endurance --> Sange and Yasha --> Black King Bar (highly mid-game centric)

3. Phase Boots + Ring of Aquila --> Helm of the Dominator --> Black King Bar --> Monkey King Bar --> Butterfly/ Satanic (what I've always thought of as a good progression)

4. Phase Boots + Ring of Aquila --> Drum of Endurance --> Black King Bar --> Butterfly --> Satanic (pretty much the same as #1, but replace SnY with Drum for cheaper option)


I'd like to hear your thoughts on each of these, and if there are other items that I'm missing out on.

so basically what all these builds are is "playstyle"

in pro games it goes like this.

winning early game really fookin hard? phase - aquila - yasha - helm - sange - bkb - mkb
^ this is a build designed to fight early and pressure the advantage you have gained early game with a mid game item prgression that is a mix between fight and farm.

winning your lane but not others? phase - drums - bkb - helm - situational
^ this is a build for when you need to fight early to help other lanes or defend early.

everything is even and no ganks are happening? phase - aquila - helm - bkb - skadi
^ build for when you can farm with out anything really threatening happening.

everything is even but they have a harder carry/better late game? phase - drums - helm - mkb/bkb - butterfly.
^ this is a build you go to win the game before they come online.
