DOTA Strategy: Raijin Thunderkeg (Storm Spirit)
This hero is very fast i mean very fast and HE will catch anyone who dares to run in seek of protection. He's main Strength is it's huge agility with which he can out battle any other hero on the field.
Your main spell here will be Overload (V) This is a passive skill which u MUST lvl up early in the game. "Each successful attack builds up a static charge, eventually releasing in the form for an electrical burst. The burst deals damage and does a minor Purge-like effect to the attacked foe and nearby area." At lvl 4 this build up will take place after 5 Attacks and the burst will deal an extra 75 Damage in a small aoe and purge them. With this skill high and a good attack speed so you can build up fast they will always be on the running when they see you, as the burst will slow them they will be easy target. You must use this (well it's a passive skill so you don't have to use it ("literally") in association with Electric Rave that i will discuss now.
Electric Rave (E) this skill "Transfers mana into pure electric current at a rapid rate, increasing the Storm Spirit's attack speed by 20% for 6 mana per second (at lvl 1) at lvl 4 this will be a 80% speed burst for 15 mana /second so you will need mana, and lots of it. This will be the secondary spell as you need to attack as fast as you can.
This is your Primary Objective to be as fast as you can.
The third spell i have to say i don't use it never, it is Barrier (R) it Shields a target with Raijin's discharged mana, resisting spell damage while under the effect. Lasts 20 seconds, Prevents 600 magical damage at lvl 4 and costs 75 mana to cast and it has only a 15 second cooldown. Well its probably useful sometimes but i didn't use it that much so you experiment with it.
You will use your Ultimate pretty often because its a very powerful spell with this spell you can catch anyone in 1200 range at lvl3 or you can just travel fast. Lightning Grapple (G) Creates an electrical attraction between the Storm Spirit and a target area, pulling him and all nearby units to that point. This is very useful if the enemy runs into base and you are near him just point outside and he will travel with you back into the battle, or you can travel with your nearby allies to a nearby enemy hero/tower. I like this Ulti allot and it's actually very funny to see all them around you as you travel to 1 point hehe.
You should but any item that gives you attack speed and/or agility Lothar's Edge would be a good choice to buy in any case and any item with hyperstone or agility is a must try buying only hyperstones see what happens.
