Dota 2 - Jakiro Build Guide

BIO
Even among magical beasts, a twin-headed dragon is a freak. Equal parts ice and fire, cunning and rage, the creature known as Jakiro glides over charred and ice-bound battlefields, laying waste to any who would bear arms against it. Pyrexae dragon clutches always contain two fledglings. Famous for their viciousness even from the first moments of life, newly hatched dragons of this species will try to kill their sibling while still in the nest. Only the strongest survive. In this way is the strength of the Pyrexae line ensured. By some accident of nature, the freak Jakiro hatched from a single egg, combining in a single individual the full range of abilities found within the diverse Pyrexae species. Trapped within the armature of its monstrous body, the powers of ice and fire combine, and now no enemy is safe.

STRATEGY
Early Game
Jakiro is a heavy nuker hero. Since the early game, you should use your skills to harass the enemy. Make your enemy recessive by always harasssing them. With the relatively high damage from your nuke, it is quiet easy to harass your enemy in the lane. Use Dual Breath constantly and make your enemy HP become less.
If there is a carry in your lane, it is recommended to let the carry to farm while you can harass the enemy or denying the creep.
If you are the support role for the team, it is recommended to buy a courier and wards to benefit the whole team. With wards, your team can avoid being ganked by the enemy.

Mid Game
Mid game is the time while ganking party is happening. Be careful of enemy's gank party. Your team may need wards to give a vision so your team can avoid enemy's surprise gank.
You, as a nuker / disabler hero, should roam and help your friends on another lane. Tell your friend that you are ready to gank and ask him to help you, then you should come to the lane and use Ice Path to disable the enemy, your friends and you can harass them while they are disabled, and then you can use the Macropyre amd also use your Dual Breath to harass and get many kills.

Late Game
On the late game, your part for the team is the same. to nuke all the enemy in area in front of you. because all your skills are area skills, it willl be so nice to deal damage to all the enemy in a time. Be careful to use the Ice Path, this is your main disable and make sure it hits at least 2-3 enemies, so you can land your ultimate and your other skill perfectly and deal a massive amount of damage.
Although the effectiveness of nukes is reduced on the late game because enemys Hp and is already high, but all your skill damage combined is still good. Moreover if you buy an Aghanim Scepter, it will make your ultimate more painful for the enemy.
