Heyo Guys!

Kunkka is a melee hero with awesome abilities, but I see that many players really underestimate him. I can really understand because Kunkka is not a noob-friendly hero, as well as needs positioning skills all the time. Anyway let's step onto our guide. Hope u like it :)

Pros and Cons


PROS

    High base strength and strength gain
    Cleave monster
    Has a stun neglets magic immunity
    The rum with the Ghost Ship gives your team delayed damage



CONS
    Need good player skills to be effective
    Very farm dependant
    Useless without his spells

Skill Buildup

Tidebringer should be maxed asap because its our main damage dealer skill in early game, maxing it decreases the cooldown and makes it imba.

Why not maxing Torrent next? Answer is simple, we'll need at least 2 seconds of X Marks The Spot for landing our Torrent properly(Torrent has 1.6 sec delay). After that leave X Marks the Spot at level 2, and max Torrent until level 12.

Take Ghost Ship in order, level 6, 11 and 16.

Item Build

STARTING ITEMS

Quelling Blade is our bread and butter in this phase of the game. Why? Because every time u hit a creep nearby enemy units, they will take %32 more damage from your Tidebringer. You may tell me that it pushes the lane faster, yes I agree but, your enemy will be crippled too. Never ever hit a creep with Tidebringer if an enemy isnt in our Tidebringer's AOE.

GG branches and basic regeneration is always general u know.

EARLY GAME

In this phase of the game, we should try to farm up our Battlefury and gank when u have an opportunity.

Phase boots is chosen for extra speed boost and extra damage which is really considerable on this phase of the game.

Magic wand is chosen to be our main regen item. After we have Battlefury or at least Perseverance we rarely will find ourselves need to go back to base.

Bracers for extra stats. Bracers can be skipped if u have problems on farming, to reach your Battlefury faster. Because you will need that Battlefury for better farming.

MID GAME

Battlefury time. Get it, enjoy your extra cleave and continue farming including succeeding gank opportunities.

LATE GAME

Daedalus is our main item for this phase of this game. You will find yourself critting about 1k damage with these two items(Battlefury and Daedalus). Its great on teamfights. Use your torrent and reveal your ghostship to crack down your enemies after that cleave'em all.

If things are going good, go for a Divine Rapier. If not, go for a shadow blade for extra aoe cleave.

Summary

I want you to know this guide is not a complete guide. I really lack of forum skills. I'm not really good with English. Forgive me for those. Waiting for your response so I can develop this guide for greater good.

Thanks.
