Have you considered putting in blazing salvo? Increasing attack speed is beautiful when combined with clockwork, plus you get that extra strong attack from twirly death almost instantly. The only problem I've seen with blazing salvo is that you'll run out of energy quickly because it recharges so fast
damn son that's a lot of Shatterglasses, I don't want to be skeptic but the build is just too unrealistic. I would actually be surprised if you could get that much gold in one match. And again, Koshka is a crystal assassin, so Frostburn is very important and let you stick to weak opponents.
I was excited about this build and tested out a few times. I have the same issue with clockwork, I run out of energy too quick. This only helps when you are either are only sniping or controlling yourself with farming. At the stage you suggest to get clockwork you still need to be heavily farming to have a chance to do the full build and stay above the other team.
Have you tried clockwork as your third item instead?
A video of you playing would be handy to see how you actually play with this build.
My best with a frostbite build was 18 kills 0 deaths and 4 assists
This build helped me a lot! Thanks!
In early game, with this build sometimes I find the battery is not enough to use. Should i buy an additional battery? What do you suggest?
I know what you mean about the energy. I do not suggest getting another battery as that will only cost money which could be better spent in other things. What you should do is rush for Eve of Harvest, then buy Hourglass once you reach 250 since it'll slightly add to your energy gain. After that, I usually save for Chronograph instead of buying the Crystal Bit since it will further increase your energy gain.
By the end game after you've almost acquired all items, you should be farming a lot less and focusing on sniping targets. this helps with conserving energy since you don't have to TD or PF the minions. And usually at the end, you wont have any energy issues, just in the Opening and Sniping phases.
Keep in mind, Halcyon Potion does restore some energy when used, so try to use it when both your health AND energy are in need at the same time.

So i played your build last night, and did much better then my old frostburn build. The thing that was the most helpful was early boots, that helped in scoreing extra kills and successful getaways. This is now my main build, thanks for posting this!
Made me raise an eyebrow at first since you dont build frostburn, but reading the guide and seeing your layout, they will be dead before they have a chance to run. Looks good, i am going to try this one tonight, upvoted.
Thanks for the feedback!
I forgot to add in why Frostburn is not a good item for this build. This build is geared towards the endgame, and in my opinion Frostburn is only a carry item from start to middle. The slowdown on it is, like you said, negated in the endgame because the extra Shatterglass allows you to burst people down. The slowdown only affects when the opponent tries to run also. Usually, they won't have the chance.
If you would like to use Frostburn in this build, you can. But I would recommend taking out the last Shatterglass and work for Frostburn before Eve of Harvest. That was my old build, but I found this one to be the most effective.

Let me know if that helped! Goodluck!
