How had she been reduced to this? She was once the Scourge of the Plains, a merciless leader of men and beasts, and able to sow terror wherever she dared. Now she was far from her homeland, driven half mad from starvation and months of wandering, her army long dead or turned to worse. As she stood at the edge of an ancient forest, a pair of glowing eyes spied on from an elder branch. Something beautiful and deadly sought a meal in the wilting dusk. Without a sound, it turned and left. Fury overtook her. Clutching a rust-eaten dagger, she charged after the beast determined to reclaim even a shred of her past glory, but her quarry would not be caught. Three times she cornered the creature among the rocks and trees, and three times she pounced only to witness its fading shadow darting further into the woods. Yet the full moon shone brightly, and the creature's trail was easy to follow. Arriving in a clearing atop a high hill, the beast's massive feline form sat in the open, attentive and waiting. When the woman brandished her dagger, the creature reared and roared and charged. Death, it seemed, had come for her at long last in this strange place. She stood, calm and ready. A flash of movement, and the beast snatched the dagger from her hand before vanishing into the forest. Stillness. Hooded figures approached. In reverent tones they revealed that Selemene, Goddess of the Moon, had chosen her, had guided her, had tested her. Unwittingly she had endured the sacred rites of the Dark Moon, warriors of the Nightsilver Woods.
She was offered a choice: join the Dark Moon and pledge herself to the service of Selemene, or leave and never return. She did not hesitate. Embracing her absolution, she renounced her bloody past, and took up a new mantle as Luna of the Dark Moon, the dreaded Moon Rider, ruthless and ever-loyal guardian of the Nightsilver Woods.

Why Lucent Beam maxed first? You should max this immediately. This skill is a high damage nuke that should be maxed on early game. Because in early game, enemy's Hp is still relatively low. enemy harassing will be easy.
STRATEGY
Early Game
In early game I recommend you to take 1 level of Lunar Blessing to increase your damage and helps you in last hitting the creeps. Your main job is to farm as much as you can. Try to last hits carefully so you can earn gold quickly. You should also harass enemy using Lucent Beam and make them uncomfortable in lasthitting. If you need to deny, that is ok, but you must remember that your main job is to last hits.
Beware of enemy's attempt to gank you. Your team's needs a vision so your support better buy the Observer Wards.
Mid Game
We recommend you to keep farming everywhere, you should farming in your lane, you should also farming in the jungle. The faster you got your core item, the higher the chance your team will win the teamfight. You can also helps your team in some teamfight if you think your allies can't handle the teamfight with just 4 person .

Late Game
Here is your time to show off and come to the battleground. You should already have the items you need, maybe Manta Style, or DPS item or another nice items. You should start a teamfight using Eclipse, and then just right click. You have a very high right click damage that bouincing. You Just need to wait until all enemies are all dies. This hero have a very nice ability to destroys all of the enemies. Your bouncing damage is also have a decent damage from the Lunar Blessing so the enemies that receive the bounced damage of your glaive will have their HP reduced quickly.
After you won the teamfight, you better fight the Roshan to get the Aegis for your safety.
And then after that, you can push conveniently.
