Threat Hero Notes
1
   No Threat
2
   No Threat
3
 Ardan No natural stun, you can go through his Gauntlet without suffering from the stun.
3
 Phinn Too slow. His pull is devestating for you, if he lands it. {He shouldnt.}
4
 Taka Weaksauce.
4
 Skaarf Early game, you can easily dodge his spitfires.
5
 Rona She has a strong early game, and you'll see that you can encompass her after the midgame.
5
 Ringo His early game is stronger than you. Wait for Twirling Silver to run out before engaging. His base stats are really similar to yours. You can burst him down most of the time.
6
 Petal Do not underestimate her. Her minions can pack a punch against you, as you aren't well sort out in terms of defense.
6
 Krul His early game is worse than yours. Get your team to starve him, and it'll be fine. However, his stacks against you will pack a punch, and if he can get full stacks + Smite...
6
 Vox I cant place why, but he is a pain. It may be his slow, his mobility, and his Silence.
7
 Celeste As a mage, she is frail. With practice, you can easily dodge her stars. However, mind her stun. She can land you with an A > B > A combo, and either massively injure/kill you.
7
 Fortress His strong early game will put you out of place. Prioritize farming, and do your best to prevent snowballing.
8
 Catherine Stuns will destroy you. Blackfeather is a fragile hero, and getting caught out will only amplify such troubles.
8
 Glaive A powerhouse. His stun will displace you, and put you in a bad position.
8
 Skye She is very strong this patch. Be watchful, re-position yourself so that you aren't the Grade A target.
9
 Adagio In the Lane Sequence, Adagio will be a nightmare for your farm. His Heal on his minions will force you to back off, and his buff will deal massive damage, due to your natural early game weakness.
9
 SAW His immense damage early game will disallow you to farm. If he buys Book of Eulogies, he can sit atop your minions, denying you farm, while he quickly regens health.
10
 Joule Crit Build, CP Build, doesn't matter. Joule will destroy you. You cana attempt to starve her, but the best you can do is hope. If shes competent with her skillshots, you better start praying.

Hello! Im Vorv. I frequent the forums, and Reddit to boot, and have a twitter, @VorvVG. If you have any requests, hit me up over there. I have nearly a year of experience with VG now, so, put your Solo q games into my hands, and read up on my guides.

Overview
Blackfeather
Diffculty : High
Blackfeather is a striking duelist who pierces the hearts of his opponents. When building weapon items, he becomes a powerful assassin. Building crystal and utility items instead unlocks powerful effects for himself and his team. He performs well in the lane where he can focus on accumulating gold early in the match.

Heartthrob
Ability: : Passive
Blackfeather’s attacks and abilities apply Heartthrob stacks to enemies. This stacks twice on minions and monsters and up to five times on heroes and objectives. Any time stacks are added or refreshed, Blackfeather also deals bonus crystal damage for each stack of Heartthrob already on the target.

Instead of energy, Blackfeather uses Focus for his abilities. Focus is capped at 100 and naturally regenerates 7.5 per second. Blackfeather also recovers an additional 10 focus for each basic attack he lands.
Feint Of Heart
Ability : A

Blackfeather lunges to his target and basic attacks. For the next 4 seconds, the target leaves behind a rose trail that grants Blackfeather and his allies move speed when moving through it. When this ability is used against a target with full Heartthrob stacks (shown as broken hearts), it will execute the target for bonus true damage based on the target’s missing health (capped against non-heroes).

Overdrive: The rose trail also makes Blackfeather and allies unslowable. Additionally, the cooldown for Feint of Heart is reset if the target is killed within 0.5 seconds.
On Point
Ability : B

Blackfeather pierces all enemies in a line, damaging them and applying a decaying slow for 1 second. The duration of this slow is increased by 0.3 seconds for each stack of Heartthrob on the target. If this hits at least one enemy hero, Blackfeather also gains a barrier that scales with a percentage of his bonus health and recovers focus. The amount of focus recovered is further increased with a percentage of his max energy and a percentage of his energy recharge.

Overdrive: On Point gains increased range.
Rose Offensive
Ability : Ultimate

Blackfeather cuts through his opponents, basic attacking all enemies along his path. During the dash, Blackfeather is immune to negative effects and takes greatly reduced damage. This ability has 2 charges.

STATS LEVEL 1-12
HEALTH 765 (+65) ARMOR 20 (+6)
ENERGY 0 SHIELD 20 (+6)
WEAPON 81 (+7.18) RANGE 1.8
ATK SPEED 1 (+0.033) MOVE SPEED 3.4

CORE
CORE
STAGE ONE
STAGE ONE
STAGE TWO
STAGE TWO

You'll need the attack speed from the Swift Shooter, and the damage from the Heavy Steel. This allows you to farm faster, and bully your opponent more, all while gaining lifesteal! Isn't that dandy!
This is setting you up for massive poke damage. You are now hitting your mid-power spike, akin to a CP Ringo with Achilles Shot
STAGE THREE
STAGE THREE

At this point, you should be hitting at approx. 180-ish. You are slowly becoming more and more powerful. Fear me!
You should be poking like its Facebook in 2011
STAGE FOUR
STAGE FOUR

Move on to defense. After that,, if you make it that far, the game is in your favour 9/10.
Choose whichever defense you need for more survivability. Or, pick up a Shatterglass if you really need more damage. (You shouldn't)
FINAL
FINAL

Pop an Atlas once your team engages, go straight for the carry's neck and knock him off, proceed to turn and face the jungler, kill him, and then, kill the support. ezpz
Replace Shatterglass with Broken Myth if the other team builds Aegis
The reason you get the Tension Bow, ois because you'll then have the time to let it proc, while youre poking. You get your 6 stacks on the broken myth up, along with a proc'd Tension Bow and Aftershock, leading to your Feint of Heart dealing immense damage.
