Key strategic elements to consider when playing Bristleback:

If you can be aggressive in lane, take a point in Viscous Nasal Goo as it will greatly improve physical damage output when paired with your support in lane.
Turn your back to opponents, their towers or stacks of neutral creeps whenever you expect to take loads of damage. It greatly reduces the amount of damage received and procs your Quill Spray stacks.
Alert your supports to stack for you, especially ancient camps as you can clear it at level 7. This will give you the ability to scale fast into the game compared to everyone else.
Once you get Vanguard, play very strong in lane. Look to push the enemy out of the lane and break their Safelane tower with the help of your support.
Check opponents` inventories frequently in search for break effects and healing reductions. Black King Bar and dispel items counter some of them.
You can take Roshan down fast and early with your team thanks to Viscous Nasal Goo. Abuse these openings for an early power spike into a high ground push off the Aegis.
Use the Bloodstone active together with Bristleback active from Aghanims Scepter upgrade to do a massive burst of damage while healing yourself quickly in fights.
