 Celeste Don't chase unless you're sure can score a kill, or her health is low. if her health is still high, she's probably be more bold to engage you with stun and [[heliogenesis]] combo
9
 Joule Don't use [[afterburn]] before he use his ulti or stun, it can kill you in a second
10
 Krul Worst enemy, his weakness stacks slows attack speed, can heal hp if needed, can gain extra armor from dead man's rush

Tips and Tricks Top

Hi, I wanna share this because Glaive is the 1st hero I bought, but I never played it until recently. 1st time I bought it, I don't know how to play with it, then I decided to learn how to use him. The result is amazing, I can dominate enemies (unless there's a noob teammates). so here's my suggestion:

1. Never use Afterburn for initiate, or to go into a battle, or should I say, don't use it at all until you really need it. To go into a team fight, just walk to targeted enemies(preferrably the weakest enemy) attack and use Twisted Stroke and keep attacking. If theres a dying enemy tries to run, then you can use Afterburn, If ur health is low, use Afterburn to run. Basically use it only for something useful.
2. Fully max Twisted Stroke 1st, it helps you farm, and damage surrounding enemy heroes, useful at the early and end of game with the build I make.
3. Before going into a team fight, make sure max out Bloodsong, but don't use it right away. Use auto attack and Twisted Stroke until you think a Bloodsong might reduce your enemies' health to a critical level or if you think it can kill an enemy.
4. Glaive is a great lane hero, some might say I'm stupid for starting Glaive in a lane, but I tried it numerous time, I can get all the money from the minion, which makes easier item building as the lane grants lots of money.
5. Don't buy armor/shield item, its useless except for health item and Crucible or Reflex Block, it can save you from a stun or slow.

Starting Lane/Jungle to Farm Top

I suggest going lane, and if your ally allows it, you will be super rich and powerful at a very fast rate.

Lane: Last hit with basic attack, if fail quickly use Twisted Stroke, but normally u won't need to, as Glaive has a good base attack damage. Help jungle when your allies got invaded, your presence with a Twisted Stroke is a very great help to kill the invader.

Jungle: This will be tricky, if your jungle pair is a support with Ironguard Contract, you can relax and farm. If your pair is another jungler like Krul , Joule, etc, they will sometimes monopoly the big rich jungle creep and force you to kill the small poor jungle creeps. You will progress slowly if this happen, but do not worry, you can stillsteal the big jungle creep sometimes when your pair is not there to take it(do not KS your ally, it's a bad habit and will make your ally angry, unless he KS you 1st). Help lane sometimes, this will require you to use Afterburn as initiation, but keep a safe distance, don't use it if you might get into bad position which is far from your turret.

Item:Build items in order of Heavy Steel, Six Sins, Sprint Boots, Blazing Salvo, then Lucky Strike. Do not make Sorrowblade right away.

Mid Game Top

By now, you better have both Sorrowblade Tornado Trigger, its the time for team fight. Never go out 1st, because you're not tanker, even if your appearance looks like it. Might sounds like a coward, but yeah, come out last and target squishy enemy or other enemy with lowest health at the time. Trust me, don't come out 1st, you will be targeted and die in no time, Glaive's armor is even lower than Skaarf. use Basic Attack Twisted Stroke, basic attack, Bloodsong if the enemies is in low health or if you can score a kill, Afterburn if there's a dying hero flee from battle.

Late Game Top

Here's where things will be decided, if you already have Tyrant's Monocle it will be easier, or even better if you also have Bonesaw. Like the previous strategy, don't come out 1st, let your allies with better armor/shield go 1st or if your target enemy already visible. Do not try to attack the Kraken if your enemy is still alive or not visible, an ambush will kill you instantly. Pick one from another Sorrowblade or Serpent Mask for your last item

That's It Top

That's all!!! hope this is useful, and if this is similar to other guide from other people, I want to say sorry. I'm not copying other guides, I experiment with it myself. Thanks for reading and sorry for grammar.
