Only buy up to Raptor Machete for jungling items, you can also sell it at end game for Immortality or Blade Armor. The second item to get is Haas's Claws and then when you are done with Swift Boots, focus on Scarlet Phantom for extra attack speed and substantial increases in passive effect. Afterwards get Berserker's Fury for that extra critical strike chance and damage, this item also syncs well with Scarlet Phantom so that on crit you will get increased attack speed, lastly get Magic Blade for survivability.
Item Counters !
Rafaela BEST TEAMMATES
Roger deals high damage alone, and the control and acceleration skills of these teammates can help him deal even more.
Hayabusa Counters
If this kind of burst hero can’t take Roger down quickly, Roger’s fast attack speed and lifesteal can make short work of them.
Saber Countered by
Roger can be killed quite easily when under control effects.
