Faceless Void has fairly obviously been turned into an offlaner meant to provide utility.
Level 1 has a small escape spell which will negate any damage taken from gank attempts. Decent starting strength and starting agility. You would want to start with a lot of health regen and protection items to start with. Max time walk first, then time dilation. Get only one point in chronosphere so it keeps the mana cost at 150, the extra 30 second cooldown is not worth the plus 150 mana cost since you aren't going to be using it to get kills - it's only a shittier naga sleep which has a smaller aoe, shorter duration and can backfire if your team don't know proper positioning and get caught in the chronosphere.
Take stats over any points in time lock.
Core item build is probably arcanes/mek into -> greaves, aether lens and solar crest.
Situational pick ups could be urn of shadows, vanguard/crimson Guard, blink, blademail, Eul's, Rod of Atos.
For late game items Octarine Core is probably the best so that you get a 4.5 second time walk and 12 second cooldown time dilation field (the debuff lasts for 9 seconds so 3/4 uptime). Shiva's, hex, lotus orb and linkens sphere are also good as standard late game support items.
that's why iim 3-0 with voidi all in 6,3k+ average games HUH OKALRIGHT tell me hwatever u want. Playing with 600ping all game in the one didnt even matter

Edit: I forgot to read what you wrote: Yes, he kind of is. I play him offlane and tell my team to pick ranged cores as in Invoker/Gyro
Getting carried in all 3 games, seems legit xD Try to do that with new void in a game where you actually have to bring your A game :)
Point is he's not the same "kill em all during chrono" hero anymore. He's way more utility now, maybe good for offlane and not the crazy dps-er he was before.
He is now a good Offlaner. greaves, aghanim, hex, maybe lotus orb or solar crest, shivas it would be great too.
You can play it as carry too, I dont see any difference if they have a lot of physical damage go for butterfly but the general build would be the same.

So he is a support now for a ranged heroes? Like magnus is kind of rp for his carry plus does some damages. I see from patch 6.85 to 6.86 winrate is -6% decreased :D :D
