Shadow Fiend

Nevermore the Shadow Fiend is a ranged Agility Hero possessing skills that inflict superb burst damage from varying distances. Whether near of far, Shadow Fiend is able to release incredible offensive power, both physical and magical. Shadow Fiend's true power comes from the souls he take, thus, he is more dangerous every time he kills. With enough souls, he released all of the captured souls in a devastating burst, dealing extreme damage when enemies are closer and nearer to him. Shadow Fiend is a Carry who is powerful at all stages of the game, a trait something most Carries don't have, he can harass and conquer early game, set out and kill unsuspecting Heroes during the mid stages, and unleash more power and dominate other Heroes late game.

Due to Nevermore's versatility as a Carry Hero, he provides a comfortable setting for new players to play with which allows them to practice on destroying enemies without relying on stuns and other debuffs. He is recommended for new to intermediate players.

Tips

 * Shadow Blade and Blink Dagger are sometimes built to help position your Ultimate.
 * Shadow Raze and Necromastery should be maxed before skilling Requiem, as the first one is your main nuke and Requiem doesnt do much damage without full souls.
 * While laning, try to use Shadow Raze to harass your opponent as well as kill creeps.
 * If you get killed, you can easily restore your souls by razing jungle creep camps or razing lane creeps.
 * Always fill up your souls as soon as possible and avoid dying by all means.
 * In team fights, after you get Dagger, let someone else initiate and blink in and Requiem when the enemies are crumpled up.

Trivia

 * Shadow Fiend's alternate/fun name in Dota Allstars was "YaphetS", name of a professional Dota player and a legendary user of Nevermore.
