You should edit the part about the urn charges, since it only provides 2 of them if it has 0 charges. if it already has charges, when an enemy dies near you and none of your allies with urn are close to the guys dying, you only get one additional charge.

Edit: And your support nyx has starting items worth ~750g, care to lose a word about that?

Nice guide, but i prefer to directly rush Dagon after i get my basic boots. If i get it early, then i can finish almost anyone with a single combo. I have all my mana drained, but i can just visit the fountain for refilling, as if you are choosing your targets smartly, then you will get a kill for every combo you do, you should try it sometime. As well as i agree with being the first item to get after finishing a lv5 dagon, as you can just spam your spells on cooldown with it.
+1 anyway, a solid guide

I do usually use to go back to base after ganks, but I normally play in stacks with friends and I typically mid. In those cases I will have bottle which keeps me filled on mana with arcane boots on top of that. I personally find a bit overkill, Sheep is usually enough. The bonus survivability is nice though. Thanks for feedback, will add to the guide.

I think bloodstone can be a great synergizer with Nyx. HP and mana never go wrong, and the mana regen lets you sit back in fights spamming mana burn and impale.

I am starting to think about Bloodstone more. Honestly the hefty amount of regen is a bit much. Considering the price (5050), its not something to consider before say, EB. Im going to test this a bit first, thanks for the feedback.

No need for the and ,just get the freaking and dagon as fast as possible. only if you midlane. is good on a duo lane,too.

I don't get Bottle myself. I don't really think its worth it but I've seen people do it before. Regarding Arcane Boots, I do agree they are very good for this hero. As for Soul Ring, it's entirely up to personal preference regarding mana sustain and boots, personally I enjoy the SR+Tranquils build, but its not very common. Thank you for the feedback, I'll probably edit the guide to include this.

Nicely done Synergy, well written and thought out guide. I can't fin any mistakes with this really, so I gave to a +1. Keep it up!

EDIT: I also agree with Wulfstan, just rush you Arcane boots and Dagon, do t bother with the soul ring
