The tinkering and tree-hating maniac is a dominant force in the current meta. Hate him or love him, there is no escaping Timbersaw in the new patch. His threatening spells are successful in ripping the foes (and trees) apart. He deals ungodly amounts of magical damage right from the get-go. You may avoid him in the early game, but a late-game Timbersaw is quite difficult to play around with. His spells slow, deal damage and cut through all enemies. The best part about him is that he is highly flexible, hence can be played in any of the three core roles, depending upon the matchup. Timbersaw is a highly resilient hero, meaning you can stand your ground and fight till the end, but not all builds help you do that.
To help you climb MMR with this mechanical genius, we bring you the Best 5 Timbersaw Builds that will help you win games. These builds contain the best skill allocation and the best items that help you in dominating your games with Timbersaw.
5. Sumail Build
King Sumail is by far, one of the best players in Dota. His highly clowny demeanor in-game is overshadowed by his strong and offensive playstyle. Timbersaw is one of his signatures, the hero is highly underrated but is a punishing force if in the right hands. Sumail builds a mixture of items that allow him to act both defensively and offensively, meaning there is a balance in his playstyle.

The mix of the right offensive and defensive items make sure that there is no stone left unturned when it comes to winning a teamfight. This build has all the goodies, including items that help you sustain the early game, like Soul Ring, Arcane Boots, and late-game items like Aghanim’s Scepter, Sange, and Kaya.

4. Nine Build
The recent Ti Winner Nine is a mechanically skilled genius. As mentioned earlier, Timbersaw is a flexible hero. His potential to be played in any core position makes him a hot pick in the current meta. Nine excels well in the mid-lane due to his fight and tank potential on this hero. Timber is also known to fare well in pretty much all mid-matchups due to his survivability. He can also farm quickly and rotate to the other lanes when he gets his ultimate. It is difficult to stop an early game-farmed Nine, he just snowballs and runs over his enemies effortlessly.
Nine loves farming in the early game, his abilities deal AoE damage which further helps him farm faster. He often builds items that ensure he has enough mobility and sustains to withstand a teamfight early on. Hence, items such as Lotus Orb, Kaya and Sange, and Octarine Core are highly effective in the early stages of the game.
