HP Regen: 0.73 | Mana Regen: 0.85

Crystal Nova Crystal Nova (V)

Level 1 - 80 damage and chill.
Level 2 - 130 damage and chill.
Level 3 - 180 damage and chill.
Level 4 - 230 damage and chill.
• Damage type: magical
• Will slow the affected units' movespeed by 30% and attack speed by 20%.
• Casting range: 700
• Area of Effect: 400
Mana Cost: 100/120/140/160
Cooldown: 15
Comment: this is rylai's only nuke. this skill in conjunction with frostbite is what makes rylai a good ganker. early game, you should NEVER EVER use this skill for creeping as it costs too much mana. a note on using frost nova: when doing the frostbite-frostnova combo, do not use frost nova while the hero is still encased in bite so that the slow wont be wasted.

Frostbite Frostbite (E)
Freezes the target in a case of ice, prohibiting movement and attacking. Deals 70 damage per second.
Level 1 - Disables the target and deals 70 damage per second, lasts 1.5 seconds.
Level 2 - Disables the target and deals 70 damage per second, lasts 2 seconds.
Level 3 - Disables the target and deals 70 damage per second, lasts 2.5 seconds.
Level 4 - Disables the target and deals 70 damage per second, lasts 3 seconds.
• Damage type: magical
• Blink- and Metarmophosis-based skills cannot be used while under the effect of Frostbite.
• Lasts 10 seconds on creeps level 5 or lower.
• Casting range: 500
Mana Cost: 115/125/140/150
Cooldown: 10
Comment: this is rylai's primary skill. a frostbite + whack + frost nova + whack combo will net you early game kills. though its best used with a teammate. when creeping: frostbite actually last 10 seconds against creeps, dealing 700 damage. use this to farm neutrals only when you have mana to spare.
Brilliance Aura Brilliance Aura ()
Gives additional mana regeneration to all friendly units on the entire map.
Level 1 - Adds 0.5 mana regeneration.
Level 2 - Adds 1 mana regeneration.
Level 3 - Adds 1.5 mana regeneration.
Level 4 - Adds 2 mana regeneration.
• Stacks with the Brilliance Aura given by Ring of Basillus.
• The bonus mana regeneration is not considered for percentage mana regeneration increases.
Mana Cost: N/A
Cooldown: N/A
Comment: though this skill got buffed in one of the latest version of the map, you're still better off with stats. brilliance aura gives you mana regen, something you do not really need since you wont be spamming any of you're skills.
Freezing Field Freezing Field (Z)
Causes many random icy explosions in an area surrounding Rylai. Enemy units in the Freezing Field are slowed.
Level 1 - Each explosion deals 105 damage, 170 damage with Aghanim's Scepter, lasts 4 seconds.
Level 2 - Each explosion deals 170 damage, 250 damage with Aghanim's Scepter, lasts 4 seconds.
Level 3 - Each explosion deals 250 damage, 310 damage with Aghanim's Scepter, lasts 4 seconds.
• Area of Effect: 635** / 190***
• (**) Total area of effect of the spell.
• (***) Area of effect of each explosion.
• Damage type: magical
• The slow is applied on all enemy units within an AoE of 635, even if they aren't hit by any explosion (lasts 1 second).
• Every 0.1 seconds one explosion is made, for a total of 40 explosions.
Mana Cost: 300/400/ 600
Cooldown: 150/120/90
Comment: this skill deals massive aoe damage and is chanelling. i will discuss it in depth in the latter sections of the guide.

Lothars doesnt work, it cancels the channeling is not like the witch doctor. She needs
kelen dagger
boots of travel
Black King Bar
guinso
tarrasque

293 By jamesh1002 2010-01-18

You definitely need Brilliance Aura over Stats...

292 By Dotashaman434 2010-01-18

Dude, your supposed to get aura as one of the first ones, its global as well so it pwns for all ure allies as well. plus, for kills, best way(at least to me) is to ambush noob heroes on the way back to their base, just bite them and then use freezing field, then nova them while they run away, easy kills, plus with scepter its pretty easy to just jump in use freezing field and get a double and triple kills.

you make me sick wit ur wack ass guide you should stop playin dota

290 By turt45 2009-12-19

rylai can use shiva or not?

289 By edsel346 2009-11-06

yeah lothar's is needed for her
she can be easily interrupted when she's using her last skill
she really neede lothar's because freezing field is channeling(like on witch doctor)

288 By pierre93 2009-11-04

(OT)
Btw, tram is team. Spelling error. I don't know how to use the edit button btw. Anyone can teach me?

284 By Flaming_Angelz 2009-10-13

This dude is a noob. Rylai doesn't need brilliance aurabecause stats is better? Come on. In early to mid game, this is what makes her and her tram feared. 2 mana per sec is a lot for early to mid game. Stats doesn't help the whole team now, does it?

283 By topika007 2009-10-02

Bad guide. Build is good. But the guide itself stinks.

282 By PandaGOD 2009-09-29
