    Radiance, Manta Style, Octarine Core.
    Before you ignore this you might think I'm dumb, but Underlord's illusions will grant him more attack dmg. Why? This is from Dota 2 wiki.
    When an enemy unit dies around an illusion, the damage is granted to the illusion's owner, not to the illusion itself.
    It does not matter how an enemy dies, Underlord always gets the damage as long as it was affected by the debuff.
    It's like the Alchemist build, but instead of granting more gold, it gives you more dmg. The playstyle is the same for how Alchemist is played.
    Can someone make this reach to w33 and M1racle? Really want it to get popular. Try it guys, especially the VHS guys that have supports that can babysit them for this build to easily work. Plus the cd reductions are really good for him.

          Which is why I said before you think I'm dumb. Seriously, spread this out. This is a meta from a Normal Skill scrub you VHS players call.

            ok here's the deal, go play that 100 games in a row, if it's soo good you'll get to vhs yourself.

              Oh come on man, you were the mean one, can you not judge people? I didn't say its an overnight +1000 mmr gamebreaking build.

                Radiance, Manta Style, Octarine Core - works on ANY hero. But I can see why it's especially good on Underlord.

                  i'm just saying, you shouldn't give advice that doesn't work to you

                  so go play your own build then tell us after you've gotten +1k mmr

                    You are better players than me, so I suggested it to you guys.

                      You are taking Dota too seriously, exaggerating things that are simple, I just spread a little fun, now I'm the bad guy cause you are better than me.

                        if you truly have discovered a great new build, abuse it to 5-6k; the word should spread by itself.

                          i actually had it in one of my matches and it didnt do shit

                          my tech and our terrorblade were still the ones who won us the game, the underlord was just sapping farm

                              Sure, your main hero will get the damage from your illusions, but is spending all that gold around illusions farming damage for you (for limited time, unlike greevil's greed which is permanent gold) worth all that much when your main hero won't get attack speed or mobility from that build anyway? You're not gonna hit enemies much with that build using your own hero. Instead your main damage output will come from radiance burn and your nuke instead.

                              He is a good pusher with the nuke clearing waves, his aura letting him demolish towers with power-rightclicks and ult giving him a high-cd BoT (but also letting you bring friends of course), so a split-push build is not the worst though. But if you do this build just for damage you're better off buying other damage items like S&Y, AC, crit & fish, or echo sabre. He has really poor attack speed and agi gain, so extra AS or an echo sabre are important for a DPS build. BKB and blink are also often important for mobility and being able to do anything without being locked down.
                              If you want damage to towers also consider desolator.

                              Personally I'd like him more build around survivability and pushing. Mekansm being really strong for both of those. All you need to do is survive teamfights so you can hit towers with huge bangs, even as a support or semi-core. Hood is also really nice on him since enemies already get a lot of physical damage reduction from his aura, so most damage you'll take will be magical and pure instead (with some exception heroes like sf and slardar who get more damage from armour reduction or bonus damage than base damage/stats).

                                      I tried my own build http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2604990731
                                      Fun facts:
                                      1. I got flamed by Nyx for feeling like Alchemist or Naga and what's the use of 240 extra damage if you are not going for objectives.
                                      2. Nyx is a champion for tier 5 battle cup SEA Division.
                                      3. I had the highest Hero Damage and Tower Damage on the team.
                                      4. My friend went Meepo and I was tutoring him.
                                      5. I had 240 extra damage without enemy heroes dying.
                                      6. Silencer drop Linkens for gem and then dies dropping gem as well.
                                      7. Meepo and LS farmed the jungle for 20 mins.
                                      8. My first time playing the hero.
                                      @Cookie For the 2nd time, I didn't say its a gamebreaking abusive build.
                                      Realization: I suck.

                                      Professor Dog

                                        Farix Underlord is the new badman spectre or attacker kunka

                                        Luxon

                                          And if this "new" build reaches w33 and Miracle and gets popularized, you think you will be praised for thinking for being so creative? Sorry, but this build is very well known and so far has been tried out on almost every hero, if it is indeed good on Underlord it will become core very soon.
