Sand Wraith is expected to be a formidable hero like his Dota counter part. He is THE strongest hero late game(1v1), assuming he has had a decent farm. Recommended items include:

Nullfire Blade

Sand Wraith has theĀ  ability to traverse the map using Mirage, spawning an illusion next to every enemy hero on the map, teleporting at wish to the selected illusion.
His primary skill slows enemies and increases his own speed, giving him the ability to walk through trees,buildings, and up cliffs, making him extremely difficult to escape from.
Dissipitaion refelects a % of damage taken back unto any enemy hero in 1000 range.

We recommend sand wraith lane with a baby sitter early game as his farm is crucial to his success.

Special tip: Thunder bringer’s Ultimate together with Sand Wraith’s ultimate before any team fight will dramatically improve the chances of your team coming out victorious.
