this guide means that most of your items will be usable, despite quelling blade, all these items will be needed to be used in fights so make sure that your keys are well binded.
Try to remember to tread switch intelligence treads before casting hellfire blast, then back to strength. This will let you have much more mana throughout the fight, and let you get more stuns and keep enough mana for ulti.
when past level six, if being caught out of position,while low on hp, it is best to fight, stay alive with wand and such and just reincarnating and force staffing away and waiting for team to group.
be ballsy, if you die you come back so don't be afraid to initiate and stay to fight. Wand and armlet are key items to your survival armlet gives you a significant boost to your hp when activated, so bear that in mind when running away from enemies, or 1v1'ing
keeping at least 1 tp scroll on you until you need to sell it for skull basher/mkb, will allow you to always escape to base after a force staff away. also, in early game, keeping a salve on you will give you the option to retreat, then instantly be back in the fight, which is what Skeleton King is great for.
If using forcestaff, remember to use it defensively as well as offensively, saving a team mate, reincarnating THEN saving your self is better that him/her dying
Skeleton king CAN solo roshan, this normally would happen just after you get a black king bar, as by that time you should have at least 3 points in your vampiric aura, turn on aura and auto attack to win
PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT buy both skull basher and monkey king bar OR Buying both battle fury or divine rapier. Depending on your farm, these items should be bought. If low on farm, get skull basher, if high on farm, get monkey king bar, same for battle fury. Battle fury could be replaced with a heart of tarrasque if need be, so bear in mind that the last item you get (if you reach that far in the game) is a very versatile choice. Also, if nobody else needs it, an aegis after roshan is not too bad on skeleton king. 2 reincarnations can really help the team.
