Hero Strategy
You can dodge many spells and ranged attacks with Sleight of Fist or by activating Remnants.
You can push out the lane with Flame Guard or Sleight Of Fist as the river runes are about to spawn.
Once you have blight stone, you should start spamming sleight of fist on the enemy mid laner.
Active rune control is important for Ember Spirit's game. You can place a remnant at one rune and run to the other one to secure them.
You can drop and activate Fire Remnants while Sleight of Fisting.
When low on health, you can leave the Fire Remnant behind, teleport to base and activate the remnant.
When leaving remant behind, it is good to drop it in neutral camp or at the rune spot.
Items with proc chance are great for Ember Spirit as they proc frequently during Sleight of Fist.
Ember Spirit is great at penetrating into opponents' backline due to high mobility of Fire Remnants.
If you are struggling to reach the backline aghanims scepter is great at closing the gap and increasing embers mobility.
Ember Spirit is great at splitpushing as he is elusive and can always have a remnant left behind.
Counter Strategy
Flame Guard is most of Ember Spirit's damage early. Pop it with magical damage or dispel it.
Make sure you are controlling power runes against Ember Spirit. He likes to bottle and gank with those.
Avoid clumping up against Sleight of Fist spam.
Items that can root or stun elusive Ember Spirit are great.
Ember Spirit is really good at split-pushing. Consider getting Boots of Travel on a core.
