Skill Plan

Shadow Walk have priority to be the first skill. Jinada reduces the movement and attack speed of enemy for 3 seconds which is really awesome effect during early game. It got a bit long CD, though. From level 1 to 4, the 20% movement slow effects are the same so level 1 is enough for team cooperation and ganking in early game. BH is core ganker during early and middle game by team-work rather than to be a solo killer.

Item Plan

Starting

With decent stats and two slippers, Bounty Hunter can do the last-hit to farm easily. Don't forget using Shadow Walk to reduce some HP of the opponent.

Core

Due to the high pace of battle in the current version of DotA, Bottle is necessary for BH to get the runes. Better runes will make you a true bounty hunter by farming heroes. It's normal to get Perseverance during middle game and get Battle Fury afterwards. It's really great for dps but it needs farming period during early and middle game without a hitch. So how to cooperate with your team mates is vital.

Luxury

With Battle Fury BH is really lethal now. Actually, he is not that overwhelming in DPS especially in late game when the other carries get better items. Remembering you are a ganker leader will be helpful to decide when and where you should appear. When facing group fights, be sneaky and track the opponent carry in the back of the enemy group. Keep an eye on the heroes like Tidehunter, Earthshaker and Magnataur with Blink Dagger. Attack them at first time so they couldn't jump into your team and stun most of your team mates.
