Dota 2 - Brewmaster Build Guide

BIO
Deep in the Wailing Mountains, in a valley beneath the Ruined City, the ancient Order of the Oyo has for centuries practiced its rites of holy reverie, communing with the spirit realm in grand festivals of drink. Born to a mother's flesh by a Celestial father, the youth known as Mangix was the first to grow up with the talents of both lineages. He trained with the greatest aesthetes of the Order, eventually earning, through diligent drunkenness, the right to challenge for the title of Brewmaster-that appellation most honored among the contemplative malt-brewing sect.

As much drinking competition as mortal combat, Mangix for nine days drank and fought the elder master. For nine nights they stumbled and whirled, chugged and struck, until at last the elder warrior collapsed into a drunken stupor, and a new Brewmaster was named. Now the new, young Brewmaster calls upon the strength of his Oyo forebears to speed his staff. When using magic, it is to his spirit ancestors that he turns. Like all Brewmasters before him, he was sent out from his people with a single mission. He wanders the land, striving toward enlightenment through drink, searching for the answer to the ancient spiritual schism-hoping to think the single thought that will unite the spirit and physical planes again.

2. Use the Thunder Clap
3. Use the Drunken Haze ( If you don't have enough time, skip this step)
4. Use your ultimate the Primal Split
5. Stun the targetted enemy using the Earth Panda
6. Disable the non-targetted enemy using a Cyclone from the Wind Panda ( If you don't have enough time, skip this step)
7. Right click the targetted enemy with all your army
Keep calm and follow that step. You should do the click correctly, you can make it if you already used to it.

While not ganking, you should farming. You can farm on the lane or in the jungle.
