Tips

For those that stuck around here are some helpful tips:--------------You should stay in lane for at least 10mins or until the enemy tower is destroyed. Reason being that in favourable scenarios the enemy team will have to dedicate their supports to stay in lane which allows your team to lane safely (otherwise you will shutdown the safelane farmer).-Approximately 25 minutes try to 5 man (teamfight) with your team. Sit in the back and provide your item auras and Mist Coil/Aphotic Shield. You want to get your Curse of Avernus on enemies however to apply the buff for teammates. This buff also works on towers so dont be afraid to get agressive!-When you get Aghanims Scepter you can be the frontline man of your team until it triggers. Afterwards stay in the back and continue to heal/shield your teammates.-Always buy the detection if needed (even a gem) to strengthen your teamfight as you are extremely difficult to kill allowing for complete map control.-Hold on to Aphotic Shield to dispel status effects (like stuns, damage over time, slows) on affected allies. It can also be used to buy time on spells like Ancient Apparition's Ice Blast. It does not damage to invisible units or units in fog of war.-You can deny yourself with Mist Coil and it applies the heal/damage first before damaging yourself. The self damage will trigger both aphotic shield and Borrowed Time.-You can trigger Borrowed Time yourself to prevent heroes like Axe from bypassing it.-Use Borrowed Time to heal on towers, the well (fountain farming) and of course all other sources of damage.-Always carry a Teleport Scroll to save allies in trouble or being tower dove.-Even if you feed (as Arteezy mentioned) you will still provide an important role as it usually takes a lot of effort/time to kill you (space created). I have gone 0-8, 9 minutes into a game and finished the game on a victory with 9 kills, 11 deaths.-Doom is probably the best counter to Abaddon but he is still investing a Doom that isn't being used on an ally.
