Dota 2 - Broodmother Build Guide
BIO
For centuries, Black Arachnia the Broodmother lurked in the dark lava tubes beneath the smoldering caldera of Mount Pyrotheos, raising millions of spiderlings in safety before sending them to find prey in the wide world above. In a later age, the Vizier of Greed, Ptholopthales, erected his lodestone ziggurat on the slopes of the dead volcano, knowing that any looters who sought his magnetic wealth must survive the spider-haunted passages. After millennia of maternal peace, Black Arachnia found herself beset by a steady trickle of furfeet and cutpurses, bold knights and noble youths--all of them delicious, certainly, and yet tending to create a less than nurturing environment for her innocent offspring. Tiring of the intrusions, she paid a visit to Ptholopthales; and when he proved unwilling to discuss a compromise, she wrapped the Vizier in silk and set him aside to be the centerpiece of a special birthday feast. Unfortunately, the absence of the Magnetic Ziggurat's master merely emboldened a new generation of intruders. When one of her newborns was trodden underfoot by a clumsy adventurer, she reached the end of her silken rope. Broodmother headed for the surface, declaring her intent to rid the world of each and every possible invader, down to the last Hero if necessary, until she could ensure her nursery might once more be a safe and wholesome environment for her precious spiderspawn.
INTRODUCTION
Broodmother is a hero that can push towers quickly and makes enemies can't stop Her. She can camp in 1 lane and keep farming and pushing in that lane until the barracks broken. She is the fastest pusher in DotA, just leave 1 lane with her in it, and see your towers are all gone. Beware of this hero pushing tower, you will never feel enything and suddenly your barracks is already gone. She uses her spiderlings to destroys towers , the spiders deals lots damage to towers because of its number. Spiders come in large groups of small spider and it is very annoying to the defender.
ABILITIES
1. Spawn Spiderlings
Broodmother injects her young into an enemy unit, dealing damage. The spiderlings will hatch if the target is killed while under this influence.
Black Arachnia continues to raise her young, even amidst the field of combat. The brood quickly learns how to support their mother. This is your main skill for the game. With this you can build your own empire, the empire of Spiders. With this, you have the gratest pushing power in DotA. With this you can destroys enemy towers twice as fast than other heroes. Try to spam this everytime a creep HP is low. You can also use this to jungle, keep raising spiders, and kill all creeps in jungle. Also makes you can kills creeps in lane quickly and makes you a more decent pusher. Can also helps you harass or kill a hero.
2. Spin Web
Throws out a web that renders Broodmother invisible in its vicinity, while also boosting regeneration, and granting a passive movement speed increase. Webs never expire, but when the maximum limit of webs is exceeded, the oldest web disappears.
Weaving a bed of silken fibers, Arachnia's web both protects her and her offspring, as well as giving advancing opponents a sense of forboding. This is your skill that makes you can control any situation that can happen in DotA. Makes you become invisible, more move speed, and more HP regen. I recommend you to max this skill early, so you can cast this everywhere and make you can move freely and fastly. You can use the webs to escape from any harms, if enemy come near, just get off easily. You can make an escape plan with this skill. Make a link with your webs so you can keep moving fast through your webs. Use this ehenever it is possible, this will makes you to move faster and arrive in your destination quickly.
3. Incapacitating Bite
Broodmother's venom cripples enemy units, causing her attacks to slow and giving the affected unit a chance to miss its attacks. Incapacitating Bite is a Unique Attack Modifier, and does not stack with other Unique Attack Modifiers.
Paralytic toxins come from Black Arachnia's fangs, causing a slow and painful death to those who intrude on her webs. A slower that makes your enemies can't run from you, attack him and just wait until his death. This skill also provides a miss chance that makes enemy to miss some physical attacks.
4. Insatiable Hunger
A violent lust for vital fluids increases Broodmother's attack damage and gives her a vampiric attack.
While most of her prey is wrapped in silken cocoons and saved for her young, the Broodmother herself has a taste for wandering heroes. Very good skill that will gives you additional damage and a high lifesteal. Makes you a monstrous carry. This skill can helps you in pushing or carrying your team to victory. In a big teamfight, this skill can quickly damaging your enemies and can make your team to win the teamfight. Also remember to last hit enemy using Spawn Spiderlings and makes you get 2 spiders. This skill has a short cooldown, that means that this skill is spammable and you can use this in every situation. In pushing towers, ganking, or carrying.

Mid Game
Remember to keep pushing. You can stay in your lane, no matter what happens in another lane. You should leave over the duty of ganking and teamfight to your team in other lane, and your part is to keep camping in one lane, and keep destroying towers and barrack. Keep gather Spiders force and use it to destroys towers. If 4 or 5 enemies try to gank you, just run through your webs that you have already prepared before you push. If that happens (4-5 man ganks you, then your teammates should be pushing the other lane and make the enemies can't keep with that fast changing lane pushing strat). If you already succeeded destroying barracks on your lane, you can change lane and do the same in that lane. Or if enemy is already arrived in your tier 3 tower, you should also participate in defending your base.
Late Game
