This strategy is for anti-mage users/-ar people. But instead of the regular strategy for AM, I'll use a bit more smooth strategy. Take a look..
Mana Break (R)
Each attack dissipates mana based on spell level. Orb Effect.
Level 1 - Burns 28 mana and deals 17 damage.
Level 2 - Burns 40 mana and deals 24 damage.
Level 3 - Burns 52 mana and deals 31 damage.
Level 4 - Burns 64 mana and deals 38 damage.
• Deals 0.6 damage per point of mana burnt.
• Mana Burn is blocked by magic immunity.
• This skill is an Orb Effect.
• You can lifeleech the damage dealt by this skill with a Lifesteal aura.
Mana Cost: N/A
Cooldown: N/A
Comment: Very nice skill for basic Anti-Mages. Since it also gives bonus damage, it can help you kill stronger enemies and disable them faster than Silencer.

Blink (B)
Short distance teleportation that allows one to move in and out of combat.
Level 1 - 200 - 1000 Range Teleportation.
Level 2 - 200 - 1075 Range Teleportation.
Level 3 - 200 - 1150 Range Teleportation.
Level 4 - 200 - 1150 Range Teleportation.
• If you used Blink to teleport to a distance over the maximum range, you'll be teleported 4/5 of the maximum range instead.
• You can use Blink to dodge incoming projectiles.
• Blink has a 0.33 seconds teleportation delay.
Mana Cost: 60
Cooldown: 12/9/7/5
Comment: One of the coolest skill for sneak attacks and escaping. Once the cooldown becomes shorter, the skill itself becomes more effective.

Spell Shield (D)
Magina learns to protect himself with an anti-magic shield. Increases his resistance to magic damage.
Level 1 - Reduces magic damage by 26%.
Level 2 - Reduces magic damage by 34%.
Level 3 - Reduces magic damage by 42%.
Level 4 - Reduces magic damage by 50%.
• Stacks with spell resistance items.
Mana Cost: N/A
Cooldown: N/A
Comment: A skill essential when against spellcasting heroes and also as based on some forums, it is said that If it is stacked with 2 Aegis' of the Immortal, Anti-Mage won't get much damage from spells.

Mana Void (V)
Creates a powerful void in an enemy unit caused by a lack of mana. For each mana point missing, the unit takes damage.
Level 1 - .6 damage per mana point missing.
Level 2 - .85 damage per mana point missing.
Level 3 - 1.1 damage per mana point missing.
• Damage type: magical
• Stuns target for 0.1/0.2/0.3 seconds.
• Damage is calculated based on the primary target's mana, but applied to all enemies within 325 AoE of the target.
• Stun works on magic immune units.
Mana Cost: 125 / 200 / 275
Cooldown: 70
Comment: The most powerful Anti-Mage weapon. This skill synergizes to Mana Break and while your enemies' mana is very low, use this skill when both their HP and Mana are low! It also slows them down for a split second.

Early Game:
Farming & Leveling up
_______________________
Start off by getting Mana Break, and head on to any zone (either mid, west, or east.) and kill and deny as efficient as possible. If you have the Blink skill, use it to harrass your enemy(ies) until they go home or waste a flask/lesser clarity. Once level 6, try to kill heroes and attack them until HP and Mana of your prey is low and.. MANA VOID all the way!
Items to get
_______________________
In 5 on 5, get at least a Flask/Lesser clarity potion and a Slipper of Agility/Circlet of Nobility. Then get 1-3 Wraith Bands and go Power Threads. And get Mythril Hammer.
Killing heroes
_______________________
Use the following strategy (appies to early-late game)
- Blink to enemy, then attack him/her and let their HP go to 15%. Then Mana Void! If they are still moving, chase them with Blink and kill.
- Call for a stunner, then do the same thing with the first strat and this time, it is easier to kill since a stunner can help you disable your enemy.
