Such an annoying spell currently, expecting nerfs to this spell but basically can be used to last-hit harass from a safe distance with a simple Chalice/Ring of the Teacher early game.

===================================================================================================

Matraxe

Moraxus creates a defensive axe matrix which feeds off of the energies of nearby enemies. Moraxus may detonate the matrix to deal damage to nearby enemies.

Activation
Activates Matraxe on Moraxus, which starts with 200 / 300 / 400 health. The Matraxe may grow to a maximum of 400 / 600 / 800 health and lasts for 10 seconds or until detonated.

Matraxe Effect
Absorbs incoming post-mitigation damage. The Matraxe gains 20 health per second for each enemy hero in a 800 radius. Explodes for Magic damage equal to the Matraxe’s current health in a 400 radius when detonated or when it expires.

Radius – 400

Mana Cost – 100 / 150 / 200

Cooldown – 80.0 / 70.0 / 60.0 Seconds

This skill is very weird, basically the longer you’re in the middle of the fray the more damage your ultimate does in the sense that the longer you stay alive, the more health your shield gets, and the more damage your shield does when it explodes.

Item Recommendations

Just like Pestilence Portal Key is a key part of Moraxus, cast your ult, blink in and stun and its easily a shitload of damage pouring out.

Behemoth’s heart obviously, adding to his survivability which is necessary for his ult and overall adds to his damage output.

Why the hell not, 2 linkens sphere just in case you forget about your Arcane Shield or it’s on cooldown to be way more annoying.  It’s actually not that bad allowing your mana regen to spam Axes and all.

Frostfield plate adds some much needed INT to Moraxus low mana pool as well as armor and an AoE slow to his arsenal, pretty good.

===================================================================================================

Early Game

Depending on your lane gauge how aggressive you should be, More Axes is great for harassing as well as last-hitting so grab an early Blood Chalice and/or Ring of the Teacher.  One level in Arcane Shield is really helpful to be honest, the extra movespeed can be used to escape or chase down heroes after all a spell was just negated.  Regardless you should focus on last-hitting because Moraxus is dependent on surviving to be useful and thus, needs items.

Middle Game

If you have a portal key then you should start ganking, remember to use your ultimate before you blink-stun in so that the shield gets more health from  the heroes around.  If you have PKey you should start moving around a lot more, the initiation is pretty much the same level as Pestilence minus the Sprint, however with Arcane Shield Moraxus has a bit more leniency to jump in.  If you don’t have your PKey you should farm for it but remember to always carry a homecoming stone to help defend towers and port for team fights.

Late Game

By now you should be a fat tank, get that ultimate off and stick in those team fights as long as you can.  Obviously you should be focusing those who are vital to teamfights, whether it’s picking off a huge initiation tool like Hellbringer or Behemoth or killing the other carry hero you should be on their ass, always remember Arcane Shield it is SUCH a useful tool at this part in the game where spells are just flying everywhere one is bound to hit you
