Anti-Mage: Blink-first sequence
The guide opens with Blink, then Mana Break and Spell Shield, adds two attribute points, and later maximizes Blink.
How it works
For Anti-Mage, the guide explicitly gives this order: Blink first, then Mana Break, then Spell Shield; it next says to get 2 points in stats, then max Blink. The excerpt does not explain ability effects or establish a complete allocation beyond these instructions. In the general overview, experience levels allow players to learn or improve abilities, while the guide provides this particular historical sequence.
Read the supporting references
A source-bounded reference to ten named hero ability-leveling sequences from the supplied DotaFire guide, with general match progression context from s1. These records document which named abilities the guide recommends learning or prioritizing and when. The sources do not describe the abilities' concrete effects, so this reference does not infer them or assess comparative effectiveness. Guidance explains the referenced mechanics; it is not a tested damage ranking. Check the stated edition and source version before applying a patch-specific detail.
