Base Attack Type
Ranged
Base Attack Notes:
Range : 550 Damage : 51-59
Attack Speed : 0.67
Primary Role
Ganker
Secondary Role
Semi-carry
Role Notes:
A mid hero , Sisyphus can ensure lane ganking easily with his abilities that allow him to quickly kill enemies . Ganking and mid lane will allow Sisyphus to farm well early game and have an advance in levels , consequently , Sisyphus will be able to full-fill a second role which is a Semi-Carry role with his abilities that scale with his physical damage .Here are the items I think are the best for him :
Early Game , you should provide Sisyphus with two minor totems that give him a good stats boost ,and potions so he will do good midlane and won't have to go back to base . Homecoming stone will help him to gank faster . Since he is an agility hero , he doesn't have a big mana pool , a mana potion in laning and bottle as soon as possible will be of a tremendous help in ganking .
How does he gank ?
If he is not level 6 yet , he will use substitution to sneak behind his enemies , use his Devastating Shot to push them into trees or near his allies , then his allies will do the rest with their abilities .
If he is 6 , he can go invi , aim Devastating Shot on an enemy so he collapses with a tree ( so the stun procs ) then he uses his ulti on him and auto attack.
If ganking goes well , you should be well advanced in level and you can get Ghost Marchers ( to improve your damage and sync with ultimate ) and Assassin's Shroud to sync with other abilities ( Shroud , Devastating Shot on wall , Golden arrow and auto attack with a good damage due to Assassin's Shroud, and if he needs to run , substitution is here )
As the game goes on , items such as '' Wingbow '' , '' Savage Mace '' and '' Frostburn '' will give you an incredible boost for your damage and consequently , your ulti and third ability . '' Shrunken Head '' just to make you more tanky , since agi heroes are squishy .
'' Null Stone '' can be a good item too , but i think those are cited up are better for Sisyphus .

Ability 2 Name
Substitution
Ability 2 Action Type
Target - Self
Ability 2 Notes:
Sisyphus replaces himself with a random object around him and he gains invisibility for a short time .Sisyphus replaces himself with a tree or rock ( doesn't actually matter which ) . Tree/Rock got 150/225/300/375 HP and last for 7 seconds . While they are here , the Ability '' Substitution '' is replaced by 2 sub skills , the first spell taunts all the enemies in a 250 radius around the tree/rock for 0.75/1.25/1.75/2.25 seconds ( taunts the enemies to attack the tree of course ) , the second spell taunts a target ( you target which ) in a 700 radius around the tree for 0.75/1.25/1.75/2.25 seconds . Sisyphus gains invisibility for 1/2/3/4 seconds as well as unit walking and + 5/7.5/10/12.5% movement speed for 4 seconds .
Mana Cost : 85/95/105/115
Cooldown : 30/26/22/18 seconds .
Note 1 : Sisyphus is instantly revealed if the tree is destroyed .
Note 2 : The Rock/Tree can only be damage by auto attack on it or single targeted spell . AOE like blazing fire won't have any effect on it .
Note 3 : I'll explain it with an example : Let's say pyromancer clicked on his ultimate and targeted Sisyphus, Sisyphus uses '' Substitution '' right before pyromancer launches his ulti , Pyro's ulti will hit the tree/rock . But , pyro's ultimate deals 500 damage ( just an example, random numbers ) , and the tree has 375 hp , Sisyphus will take the difference between the 500 dmg and 375 hp , which is 125 .
SO : The tree/rock will take any targeted auto attack/spell from Sisyphus right when he casts the spell, and Sisyphus will take damage equal to the damage taken by the tree - the tree's max hp
Ability 3 Name
Sisyphus's Mark
Ability 3 Action Type
Passive

With each attack , Sisyphus has a chance of applying '' Sisyphus's Mark '' on the target .The chance to apply the mark is 30% per hit .
The Marked target will be revealed to Sisyphus as long as the marked target stays in a 1000 radius around Sisyphus and as long '' Sisyphus's Mark '' stays on the target .
Moreover , grants Sisyphus a chance to critical strike the target and gains an increased attack speed on him ( as long as the mark is active ).
20% crit strike : x1.9/2/2.1/2.2
Attack Speed Increased by 35/45/55/65%
