Key strategic elements to consider when playing Underlord:

Capitalize on attack damage difference to win the lane last hit wise.
Once you have 3 points in Firestorm, consider Firestorming creep waves and farming neutrals afterwards.
Feel free to use Fiend`s Gate to replenish mana and HP during laning stage.
Underlord is amazing at safely defending towers. Your other cores can split push in the meantime.
Full combo would be: Firestorm, Pit of Malice, Rod of Atos into right-clicks. Adjust based on situation.
Place Firestorm carefully in the fights and you might end up being highest damage dealer in the team.
Begin channeling Fiend`s Gate on a first sign of trouble. You can always come back if the situation improves.
If you win the teamfight and survive, you will have a lot of damage to take towers or Roshan down.
Consider using Fiend`s Gate to bring your team closer to objectives after winning a fight or getting a pick off.
When not much is happening, you can easily split push with Firestorm without showing yourself.
Purchase Aghanim`s Shard upgrade later in the game as it improves your overall damage output greatly.
Firestorm scales well into late game due to its percentage damage, Aghanim`s Shard upgrade and talents that enhance it.
