Dota 2 - Bounty Hunter Build Guide

BIO
When the hunted tell tales of Gondar the Bounty Hunter, none are sure of which are true. In whispered tones they say he was abandoned as a kit, learning his skill in tracking as a matter of simple survival. Others hear he was an orphan of war, taken in by the great Soruq the Hunter to learn the master's skill with a blade as they plumbed the dark forests for big game. Still others believe he was a lowly street urchin raised among a guild of cutpurses and thieves, trained in the arts of stealth and misdirection. Around campfires in the wild countryside his quarry speaks the rumors of Gondar's work, growing ever more fearful: they say it was he who tracked down the tyrant King Goff years after the mad regent went into hiding, delivering his head and scepter as proof. That it was he who infiltrated the rebel camps at Highseat, finally bringing the legendary thief White Cape to be judged for his crimes. And that it was he who ended the career of Soruq the Hunter, condemned as a criminal for killing the Prince's prized hellkite. The tales of Gondar's incredible skill stretch on, with each daring feat more unbelievable than the last, each target more elusive. For the right price, the hunted know, anyone can be found. For the right price, even the mightiest may find fear in the shadows.

Level 16: Track
Level 17-25: Stats

Take 1 level on Shadow Walk to anticipate a fristblood attempt from opponents.

Why maxed Jinada first? This will really helps you in last hits and harassing on early game

Why maxed Shuriken Toss before the Shadow Walk? Magical damage is most effective on early- mid game, so don't too late to max it.

STRATEGY
Early Game
Play safe and take Shadow Walk for level 1. This will allow you to can become invisible if enemies try to firsblood yourself. Take Jinada for easier last hitting. Jinada will also makes you can harass enemies with your relatively high damage from crits. Try to intimidate enemies using your Shadow Walk. He then will feel uncomfortable with the missing of you. Then you can poke them once in a while and crits them. At least enemy's HP will be reduced and makes then nearer to death.
If enemy feel not safe because you always harass them, they usually will buy Sentry Wards. This is not bad, this means that they give up 200 gold, that makes you can lead in items (200 in early game does matter). Just play like you are not invisible to avoid being killed, and if creeps and heroes attack you while you are in invisibility, there is the signal that they already placed a ward there, so you must play like you are visible

Mid Game
Mid game is one of your golden time. This time, you already have Track, a perfect tool to find golds. Track enemy that you feel he will be killed in the next 1 minute. Squishy hero is a perfect target for you. You can kill them quickly and get golds quickly. Crystal Maiden or Venomancer is the perfect example to be tracked to find golds. You just need 2-3 attacks + Shuriken Toss to kill them.
You should also consider to track invisible heroes. It's your responsibility as a tracker to track them.
Try to get as much golds as you can for the mid game. If you can conquer mid game, late game will be a piece of cake for you.

Late Game
You should be the carry for the team in this stage of the game. You are agility hero, you have what a carry needs, damage from Jinada and golds to buy some nice items. You should already got all your nice items by this time. You shoul already have a +damage items and will sue them effectively because you have Jinada and can create some crits.
Maybe you already have Battlefury and Bkb, use all of your potential in a teamfight:
1. Track every enemy
2. Wait for your initiator to start the teamfight
3. Come with magic immunity from Bkb and deal lots of cleave damage using Battlefury + Jinada
4. Use Shuriken if you want, in late game, the damage is almost the same with your normal attack. But if you want to use this, it's ok. maybe there is an enemy that unreachable for your melee attacks, so you can use this Shuriken.
Gold is the key of victory, earn golds in mid-late game using Tracks to make yourself rich and enjoy yourself carrying the late game.
