Use your Spirit Vessel charges as much as you can to either damage enemies or heal teammates, you’ll always get more charges with how much you should be fighting. Once you have it, start going around the map while in Ghost Walk (make sure you have three Wex orbs active so you have high movement speed) to set up ganks on unsuspecting heroes. It has a great buildup from Urn of Shadows and deals a lot of damage while constantly mini-stunning an enemy when comboed with Cold Snap.

Going for ganks is the better option since you need to make space anyway.

You can either farm neutrals and have one of your supports take mid lane instead or you can go for a smoke gank. If you end up losing the lane because you really fell behind in last hits or got ganked, you have two options. Then after that you just focus on ganking the side lanes and making space for the team by the midgame. You won’t always get that opening though, so you have to aim to at least equalize with the enemy mid. The enemy will be getting mini-stunned from your right clicks as well as your creeps, which can lead to a kill. If the situation with your creep wave, health, and mana is just right, you can easily turn things around with Cold Snap. The most common opening you can exploit is when the enemy is trying to harass you. But you can still win your lane if you play it right. Invoker isn’t the best mid hero because he doesn’t have a lot of right-click damage, especially if you go for the Quas-Wex build. But for Wex-Exort I usually get three points in Quas then max Wex, though I’ll get one point in Exort if I’m up against someone like Templar Assassin so I can have Deafening Blast to disarm them in fights. The skill build for Quas-Exort Invoker is simple enough, start with a couple of points in Quas then max Exort as soon as possible to maximize your damage potential. This build is the best for Invoker’s most effective role as a space creator and someone who secures the side lanes, which you can do without needing to get a lot of items unlike Quas-Exort. Quas-Wex is the better build for the current metagame because you can accelerate your farm with kills while also making space for another hero who can carry the team better.

But it’s not that good in this patch because your buildup is slower compared to most other mids and you lack mobility. The Quas-Exort build is good against squishy heroes like Shadow Fiend and Queen of Pain, especially if your team already has strong stunners like Sand King, Beastmaster, or Faceless Void to set up an easy Sunstrike. When you play Invoker your biggest decision before the game starts is about whether you will go with the Quas-Wex or Quas-Exort build. Know when to go for Quas-Wex or Quas-Exort While Invoker is versatile enough to fit in just about any lineup, I think he’s best played as the secondary core in a four-protect-one strategy to make space for a hard carry. He has low base armor though so he struggles against heroes that high physical damage like Templar Assassin and Kunkka. Invoker is really good against squishy heroes that are vulnerable to Cold Snap like Shadow Fiend, Queen of Pain, and Ember Spirit.
