Drow ranger is an AGI carry who mainly relies on her auto attacks to do damage.She is very straightforward to play and is often a good choice for begginers. Although she has a strong early game due to her high damage and strong slow, you have to remember that drow is a carry and must be farming the majority of the time, not ganking. Her skill build is:

1. Frost arrows
2. Precision Aura
3. Silence
4. Precision Aura
5. Precision Aura
6. Ult
7. Precision Aura
8. Frost arrows
9. Frost arrows
10. Frost arrows
11. Ult

One point in frost arrows is all that's needed for early game harass. One point in silence in case you need it to survive or to land a kill on someone like a QoP or AM. Aura is maxed first for the global damage and lane control. With this and one point in frost arrows you can easily farm, deny, and harass your lane opponent. Her item build consists of:

Tranquil Boots/Power Treads
Shadow Blade
Manta Style
Ring of aquila
Helm of the Dominator
Butterfly
Daedalus
Monkey King Bar
Black King Bar (

You typically wanna aim to get some kind of survivability first via shadow blade or manta. Don't forget to use your pushing power to quickly mow down towers.
