There has been lots of build to furion. Some build him as a hardcore push, while others make him a hero killer. I prefer a little bit of both. I like to have the best of both worlds. That's why I make him a hybrid. Without further Adeau, let's proceed, shall we?


Early Stage (Level 1-7)

Skills:-
1. Force Of Nature
2. Stats
3. Force Of Nature
4. Stats
5. Force Of Nature
6. Stats
7. Force Of Nature

(Why this skill build? Why no teleport and sprout?
- Because you won't be teleporting to anywhere in those early games. U have chicken to deliver staff to you.
- You don't need sprout, as you won't be doing any hero killing, yet. GangBangs won't happen this early.)


Items(1400):-
1. Chicken (225)
2. Ring Of Basilus (sobi mask(325) + Ring of Protection(175))
3. Headress Of Rejuvenation (Ring of regen(375) + Wood Branch(75) + scroll (225))


GamePlay:-
Before you leave for your mid lane, this is what u should do. Put a point at Force Of Nature, Cast it at the trees, and command those trees to the 2 rune spots at the river. Buy a chicken, go to your mid lane.

Once your trees reached the rune spots, command them to explode further inside the woods of the enemy's teritory (as shown below in green arrows).
Why? I will tell you later during the mid stage how this will actually help in pocketing you some easy kills.

Once the 1st wave of creeps are spawned, u should have enough gold to buy a sobi mask (325). Use your chicken to deliver it to you. You should be already standing beside the 1st defence tower of yours, and by this time, your Force Of nature's cooldown should be down. Cast it. Wait for your creeps to reach you. When they clash, command your 2 trees to join in the battle. Control the trees properly. You shouldn't be worrying too much on furion. Let him auto attack the creeps, while u controlling your 2 trees. Make them attack the enemy heroes. When they run back, dun chase. Command your trees back and attack those creeps. When they return to battle, again control your trees and attack those enemy heroes and harras them.

Pushing Technic:-
Just Remember. Use your Force Of Nature whenever it's cooldown is ready. When you managed to push your creeps over to the enemy's tower, command all your trees to attack the tower. When enemy heroes come and disturb, just assign 2 trees to attack them. Shooo them away while the other 3 trees keep on attacking the tower. After 2-3 waves, i believe the 1st enemy tower should be down.


Mid Game (Level 8-16)

Skills:-
8. Teleport
9. Sprout
10. Sprout
11. Sprout
12. Teleport
13. Sprout
14. Wrath Of Nature
15. Wrath of Nature
16. Wrath Of Nature

Items(1400 + 3880):-
1. Euls Sceptop (staff wizardy(1000) + void stone(900) + robe magi(450))
2. Power Threads (Boots(500) + glove(610) + scroll(420))

Hero Killing:-
Once you've got one point in teleport, and your Eul's sceptor, you can now start hunting for heroes. If you managed to get your eul's faster, then you may consider in  upgrading your teleport skill once you've got your euls. 

One thing to keep in mind though. Not all heroes are your target. You have to pick and choose your target wisely. This is how it works.

1. Choose your target.
(Not all heroes are your meal. You need to choose wisely. Go for those heroes which has no disable/stun/blink. Access your target wisely. If he is 2-3 levels higher than u, then don't go. If he has Higher damage/attack speed than you, then dun go. Think properly before you go. If their heroes out numbered you, don't go.) 

2. When u see the chance, teleport there.
(Don't just teleport there. Think of which spot is the best place. Some heroes have AOE stun, which u don't want to teleport anywhere near him. Most of the time, i would just teleport myself between the enemy hero and his excape route.)

3. Sprout him. Hit him a few times.

4. Cyclone him when he is about to run out of sight.
(Do not cyclone him once your sprout wears off. You still have time. Eul's range is quite far. Hit hit a few more time, and just before he is about to disappear in the fog, cyclone him. You will be able to get in 1-2 more hits by doing so, and at the same time, allowing more time for your Sprout to cooldown.)

5. Cast Force Of Nature to surround enemy / distract enemy creeps / block excaping path.
(Command all your trees to surround your enemy hero. Place your trees so that your enemy hero is between you and your trees, thus, putting him in a difficult possition to excape even in the opposite direction. Just make sure your trees are just next to the enemy hero so when he drops down from the cyclone, your trees can whack him)

6. Sprout enemy again, and whack.
(If you follow the steps correctly, you will be able to sprout the enemy hero TOGETHER with your trees inside it, thus making it taking damage from you normal hits as well as your trees. Finish off the enemy with Wrath of Nature if he isn't dead, and are in the red hp region.)


Notice that furion can only teleport to explored regions? Now this is where the usefulness of the initial 2 trees that we've just sent out to explore within the forest of enemy side. Most of the time, you might happen to see clashes between heroes in the river at the runes region. A lot of times, the wining hero will get away with red/orange hp. If that happens, he will most likely run back to fountain thru the forest path. This is where your potential kicks in. Immediately teleport a few units ahead of the enemy hero. Wait for him. Do the above 6 hero killing steps, and with a little bit of luck, u will get a kill, because the enemy hero would most probable have used up all his spells and his hp is low.



End Game (Level 17-25)

Skills:-
17. Stats
18. Stats / Teleport
19. Stats / Teleport
20. Stats / Teleport
21. Stats / Teleport
22. Stats / Teleport
23. Stats / Teleport
24. Stats / Teleport
25. Stats / Teleport

Items(1400 + 3880 + 14525):-
1. Oblivion staff (Robe Magi(450) + quater staff(1150) + sobi mask(325))
2. Guinsoo (Oblivion + Guinsoo + scroll(900))
3. MKB (Quater staff(1150) + Deamon edge(2600) + scroll(1600))
4. Cystalys (Claws(600) + BroadSword(1200) + scrol(1000))
5. Burize (Cystalys + DeamonEdge(2600) + Scroll(750))

GamePlay:-
The End game is mostly about pushing. With the correct items, Furion can actually make short work on towers/rax. Use your Wrath Of Nature whenever it's cooldown is done. Teleport to an unattended lane immediately and push as hard as possible for 2-3 waves, then stay back, wait for a while, and teleport to another lane and do the same thing. I highly suspect that there would be any lone wanderers around in the map right now, but if there is, then teleport there and stop him if u can. Your guinsoo works as fine as your Eul's, or maybe better. Although it's disable is shorter, if allows your to hit the enemy while they are disabled, unlike euls.


Pushing:-
During this stage of game, i suppose you've got all your items, thus, mana won't be a problem to you. Once you've pushed into enemy's base, people find it hard to get trees to cast Force Of nature. A nice trick would be, cast your sprout on any unit. Immediately, cast Force Of Nature. You will get your 5 trees spawned immediately. Normally during this part of game, time is very crucial. You do not want to walk all the way, cast trees, and group all of them in again for the push. This is slow.

Conclusion
And that should conclude my sharing of how i play furion. Any suggestions / feedbacks are most welcome :)

El_Toque @ Thu 24-01-08 01:37PM
Do not listen to this bitch. Get a Deso, Agility treads, Curais, any other agility attack speed items. Guinsoo is OK after the above. Scepter if you are worried about HP
Deadman83 @ Wed 26-12-07 01:44AM
I usually start off with a ring of basillus, a tango, and a clarity potion, with teleport as my first skill. Then I get a headdress of rejuvination. Then power treds, then styngian, and then assault currias because it stacks with styngian desolator to give negative 11 armor to the person you are attacking. If there are people trying to fuck you up with spells or disables, a linkens sphere is good. Peace
you should jus go and die dick
FUCK U U SUCK @ Mon 24-12-07 10:52PM

I like your article...
it quite enough for us....
nice guide...
thx
Frogggie @ Fri 09-02-07 03:01AM
Nice simple guide with some useful tips (as opposed to guide where ppl just tell you how great they are with 25000 gold's worth of killer items). I like the idea of using two trees to scout the forest to prepare for a quick teleport and kill. Used it successfully since.

I also like from the comments the fact that Furion is no late game solo killer. Guinsoo is good to disable along with sprout. I usually go for desolator too, since it helps my stronger teammates by lowering their armour. I see furion as a potential toolbox to assist the rest of the team in winning, eventhough he can do some serious damage himself :)

Build:

BOS
Desolator
Guinsoo
Buriza

After that I might start buying others players items since with those 4 items you pretty much set. Really, the rest is showing off. Someone might need it more than you?
It is a team game after all... :)
Anonymous @ Sun 28-01-07 09:08PM
Nice guide! But I want to suggest to add vladimir's offering for the items... It is really not for Furion but it is for his trees to last longer... (becuase of the lifesteal)

Nice to meet you. I am a moderator of the DotA section in www.gamerzplanet.net

As why I am here, I am here to confirm whether these two guides are submited by you, or they were rather stolen, and copied from you.

Here are the two links.

Are you the so called Sourced on our site? Because I am here to verify whether the guide is yours. I don't want people claiming other people's guide as their own on my section.

Could you verify this? If it is yours but you're not the one who submited it, I will remove it from my section unless you're willing to contribute it yourself. Good day. If you could, sign up on the site and give me a pm. My nick on the site is saint. Thank you for your time.
Guest @ Sun 12-11-06 05:13PM
Nice guide..... But i sugest u get an Basher works really nice
Guest @ Sun 29-10-06 07:23AM
Go for ulti as fast as possible, it helps you bigtime when farming.. and for gods sake, get aghanims scepter.. well it all depends on the playing style. this hero can win a game for any team if you play the pushing style..
Guest @ Thu 28-09-06 07:26PM
i would like to suggest that furion should get a mekanism instead of the ring of basilus
guest @ Thu 28-09-06 07:06PM
I agree with the guy who disagree with the items, but he forgot to write that we can also do refresher orb and the thing that does hex.i am stalone41.thank you very much for listening to me :)
guest @ Thu 28-09-06 07:02PM
I disagree with the items.The itams shoulb be:Aganims,dagon,power treads,stygyan-or eye of skady

Guest @ Thu 13-07-06 08:47PM
Disagree with the stats. Should alternate between sprout and force of nature till max. WHY? cos sprout keeps the enemy in there for 5.25 secs. That's a LONG TIME. Most of the time, By the time the sprout's gone.. u'll get your kill.
yh @ Sat 08-07-06 11:36PM
er...is 2 nulls or ring of basilius better?
Guest @ Sat 08-07-06 03:26PM
thx guest for responding i appreciat it for the bkb
Guest @ Fri 07-07-06 12:47PM
and Bkb is Black king bar and
it gives +10 str, +18 dmg, and a Avatar [active] (lasts 15 seconds, gives magic immunity and makes you BIG), and cannot be dropped.
Guest @ Fri 07-07-06 12:42PM
This guide is quite logical but also needs good microing. thx man this changed my perspective of Furion. I thought Furion was a pretty bad hero. thx
Guest @ Fri 07-07-06 12:22AM
this is a great guide; but i am not only writing this message to say this . i am a beginner in dota and i would like to know pls if any one can tell me what BKB does. thx
GIL @ Sun 11-06-06 07:38PM
I like Furion the prophet.... Thanls!
Guest @ Sun 28-05-06 07:52PM
It works perfect...i like the stats in begining, if u juss controll the opposing heroes theres no need for sprout...juss end ur units to annoy them nd theyll think twice about killing you...great guide
Guest @ Wed 17-05-06 01:02PM
hey thanks for telling me this....
VASM @ Fri 05-05-06 12:18AM
It is very helpful thanks:)
Guest @ Wed 19-04-06 06:04AM
i also like the force of nature / stats build, but i take 1 teleport in early game to port back to the healing well, when neccessary....no chicken for me...i also found out, that furion is - like the hated bone - a character for the hyperstone...so my items are boots of speed, ring of basilus, then i go for guinsoo, then for hyperstone and then for mystic staff....in ultra late game (or when i got too much money) i buy a 2nd hyperstone....

that rocks for me coz, melee heros in sprout and 2x hyperstone and approx. +110 dmg kills very fast....if he comes out...sheep, circle him with trees, sprout again and so on....works fine for me....
SlayerXXX @ Sun 09-04-06 07:44AM
yeah ryt!!!!!!! =)
lionel319 @ Fri 20-01-06 08:54AM
Guest: Get the refresher just for the sprout? I don't think it's good :p I think the sprout->eul->sprout will work just fine. No need the refresher. :)
Guest @ Fri 20-01-06 01:49AM
Hmm this item list isn't that bad but i suggest a few changes. Usually with Furion i get treads, 2 euls, refresher, buriza, and basher. (not in order). Furion doesn't pool in mass damage late game compared to other damage heroes so what I do is sprout, keep hitting them until they almost get out of euls range and use euls, then use refresher if sprout isn't done with cooldown yet and use sprout again. usually it's a 9/10 chance you will get them if they don't hae to much hp and if they are still alive you can always use euls again and if they manage to escape the refresher would have given you your teleport back and by that time you might have sprout again. :)
lionel319 @ Thu 19-01-06 05:00PM
Guest: Hmmm ... Your idea are quite logical too. Maybe you can swap for sprout instead of stats during early games if your enemy in your lane is Melee, so that you can sprout him, and harras him and deny him experience/gold. Yeah. Actually it's doable :)
Guest @ Wed 18-01-06 07:45PM
is sprout better than stats??? u can buy flask of saphire water 4 hp and another one 4 mana... plz gif ur comment
Guest @ Wed 18-01-06 10:53AM
quite useful, but stats first was a little weak >_<:
