Summons powerful demons to fight at his side
Summoning forth his demonic golem, Warlock brings ruin to enemies and destroys their defenses. Yet even without his golem, his dark spells can still wreak havoc, whether healing allies and harming enemies with a word, or binding foes together to share their agony.

Strategy
Prioritize using Shadow Word for healing instead for damage due to magic resistance.
Fatal Bonds latch onto fogged units.
Use Fatal Bonds to harass if you can link 4 lane creeps and 2 opponents on the lane.
Chaotic Offering destroys trees upon landing.
Be active when Chaotic Offering is up, organize smokes and farm with golem after the fight.
Pick up Aghanim's Shard around minute 15 as it improves your waveclear and damage significantly.
Once you have Aghanim Shard, you can use Upheavel to farm creep waves and jungle camps from a distance.
Counter Strategy
Warlock's Chaotic Offering has long cooldown. Look to fight when it is down.
Avoid clumping up and fighting in choke spots against Warlock's spells.
Most of Warlock's damage comes from Fatal Bonds. Dispel items are great at removing them.
Spell immunity is great against Warlock's spells.
Be aware of Warlock's Aghanim's Scepter and Refresher Orb timings. He can carry the game.

Lore
As Chief Curator and Head of Acquisitions for the Arcane Archives of the Ultimyr Academy, Demnok Lannik was tireless in his pursuit of lost, rare and forbidden tomes. No cursed temple was so foreboding, no cavern path so treacherous, that any concern for his own survival could dissuade him from entering if rumors hinted that some pamphlet of primordial lore might still survive in its depths. However, so often did his investigations trigger the wrath of protector entities, that he finally found it necessary to master the arts of magic. He bent himself to learning sorcery with the same thorough obsessiveness that marked his quest for incunabula, becoming the most powerful Warlock of the Academy in less time than most practitioners required to complete a course of undergraduate work. Almost as an afterthought, he carved a staff of Dreadwood and summoned into it a captive spirit from the Outer Hells. And anticipating the day when he will have recovered every last lost spellbook, he has commenced writing his own Black Grimoire. It will undoubtedly be instructive.
