- If laning against one or more melee heroes, Caustic Finale can destroy their ability to farm by making sure each time an enemy creep dies, it causes area of effect damage.
- Blink Dagger is a commonly built item for Sand King, used to initiate after channeling your Ultimate. The combo of Ulti+shift click blink is a strong way to enter team fights with the element of surprise and deal a ton of area of effect damage.
- Epicenter's potential damage is high. A full blast of level 3 epicenter will result in 1100 magical damage (before magic resistance) dealt to all heroes within its AoE.
- After initiating, Sand Storm will protect you from auto attacks as well as deal damage to any enemy who stays in the area.
- In early game, hitting each creep once with Caustic Finale, followed by Burrowstrike will deal large damage in that area and can potentially kill any enemy hero who happens to be there.
- An effective early game combo involves using Burrowstrike on an enemy so they end up facing away from you and then immediately casting Epicenter. If done correctly, the enemy will be unable to stun you out of the channel phase and it will almost guarantee a kill. You should discontinue this around mid game, as you will need to save your ultimate for teamfight situations.
- The philosophy behind Sand Storm is that the enemy will grow bored of waiting for you to end its channeling, or will be too busy with the rest of your team to care about you. Note that while you cannot be hurt by autoattacks during its channeling, area of effect spells affect you fully. In the cases where the enemy has an AOE stun such as Lina's Light Strike Array or Invoker's Deafening Blast, it might be better to use Burrowstrike as an escape tool.
