Hero Strategy
On a tough lane put more points in Dragon Blood, otherwise put more points in your active spells.
Try to use Breathe Fire or Dragon Tail in order to secure ranged creeps during the laning stage.
Dragon Knight is great at taking buildings down early due to Corrosive Breath from dragon form and ability to tank tower shots.
Once you get Blink Dagger, try to make use of it immediately before opponent see it in your inventory.
Make sure you have allies nearby when you initiate. Dragon Knight doesn't do much burst damage.
Avoid fighting while Dragon Form is on cooldown. Push out lanes or play defensively.
Break effects and healing reductions are a big problem for Dragon Knight. Itemize against those.
Counter Strategy
Someone should buy Spirit Vessel against Dragon Knight to deal high damage and offset his regeneration.
Pressure Dragon Knight early on before he gets 2 or more points in Dragon Blood.
Elder Dragon Form is really good at destroying towers. Organize defense quickly.
Be aware of Dragon Knight's Blink Dagger or Shadow Blade timing.
Linken's Sphere, status resistance and Lotus Orb are good against Dragon Tail.
Break effects remove Dragon Blood - a spell that makes Dragon Knight tanky.
