1.Background story
Ancient scriptures spoke of seven sacred emanations of light, and of their convergence in great conflict. The collision of these rays upon the mortal realm created a pyre of the highest purity, giving birth to the mythical Phoenix. As a manifestation of divine flames, Icarus can discharge either flames of death and destruction, or of life and healing. The concentrated beam of energy that he can emit can incinerate whole armies from across the battlefield. Unafraid to utilize his own life-force in order to vanquish his enemies, Icarus can also harness the direct power of the sun to create a stellar explosion.
2.Introduction
First thing u should know about phoneix is that he is a hybrid(adapts to the situation). He can have many roles(support, nuke, semi-carry, but not tank cos hes got 0 base armour). I prefer making him a Nuker/Semi-Carry, early game get kills with ure AoE nukes and later, when his spells go weaker(exept Sun Ray that goes stronger), i make him a semi-carry, cos he has potential to be one(high base dmg and dmg gain). Some of u may disagree with this, but i cant deny that if u cant farm u can just use Sun Ray(takes 20 sec to kill any hero a all lvls) late game or just be a support. AND YES, I PROMOTE DPS AND CARRY ITEMS BECAUSE I MAKE HIM SEMI-CARRY LATE GAME!!!

5.Skill usage
Icarus Dive
Skill mainly used for chasing and escaping, also for big ganks, 3.5 sec disarm is good in team fights and can save both you and ure allies. Takes 10% of your current hp to cast.
Fire Spirits
One of the best early game skills, can both heal or dmg for 400 hp(each spirit 100). Also has 400 AoE so u can both do heal and damage. Costs 10% life to cast.
Sun Ray
Your main late game skill, also good anti tank and chasing skill. Use it for escaping if needed because you can go over obsticles when Sun Ray Movement is on(constant ms of 250). Costs 25% of current life points, so dont spam it.
Supernova
One of the best ultys in the game by my opinion, grants you extreme survivability and nice dps, but ure vounerable those 6 sec, but if ure enemies are low on hp, 60/80/100 dps will proprably kill them before they get to hit you 5/7/9 times. When using Supernova you MUST use Icarus Dive before unless u don have mana or there is some other disabler in your team to help. This skill brings u back to life fully regenerated, like you had aegis but also does dps. DONT DRAW MUCH ATTENTION WHEN ABOUT TO USE ULTY!

17-25 Stats
We take Icarus Dive on lvl 1 for escaping(u never know when ul need it), then we max out Fire Spirits cos this is one of best skills early game and u need it, next we max out Icarus Dive, some say that one lvl of Sun Ray should be taken, i disagree but lets put it here, can be used for chasing and escaping if Icarus Dive is on cd. We take Supernova whenever we can(lvl6,11,16) and on the end take Stats.
7. Item build
Starting items:
You dont need much heals because of Fire spirits, but you need mana...we later buy bracer so we need gauntlets and circlet.
Core items:
You need dominator for lifesteal and bonus armor, Treads give nice ms, as and some str, Medalion for mana regen and armour, and active skill on it is good(-6 armour on enemy unit), and a bracer that we get form gauntlets and circlet. Soul ring is good cos u have hp to support it.
Luxury items:
Situational items:
Rejected items:
8.Strategies
Laning:
You can go solo mid or go dual lane, if u go mid, when u get to lvl 6-7 at the end of the early game phase, u can go ganking side lanes cos they will be around lvl 4-5. U cast Fire Spirits, then after 5 sec Dive in and atk, When Fire Spirits turn red, cast them all on ganked hero...if the gank is a fail use spirits to heal ure allies(but that rareley happens). If u go sidelanes, try to kill bot dont be too agressive. At begining of the mid game u can go to some ganks.
Early game(1-6lvl):
If u decide to go solo mid, play defenciveley and try to last hit creeps much as possible, when u do fire spirits, heal as much as u need, rest harras enemy On lvl 7 go gank someone. If ure going dual lane, Try a kill, if u have a disabler its better, u should harras them with atks and spirits as much as possible.
Mid game(7-15lvl):
Ure strong here, go to do solo and team kills, if ure team starts a push, go and help(heal with spirits) and clean the way(help kills). Try to have ure core items by the end of this phase.
Late game(16-25lvl):
Here u start to go weaker, but u still have ure Sun Ray that is exellent skill late game, and if u farmed well ul get to be a nice lategame carry. U should have at least 2 luxury items.
