Hero Introduction
Goblin engineering was always innovative, but Boush brought it to such extreme that most refuse to believe that his powers lie in machine and rather think that he fights with magic. He can shoot focused light and homing projectiles as powerful and as flashy as most destructive Elven Arcane spells. It is said that not even the best Necromancers can raise armies comparable to seemingly endless amount of clockwork goblins that Boush can easily summon. And while some refuse to believe in his machinery skills and other call him the master artist of engineering, none can deny the destructive force of this goblin.

Justification
Skill Build
You don't HAVE to follow it, you can take MoM early for more lane control if you want. I don't recommend it. Laser and rockets early for ganking/possible first blood. With said combo you deal compareable damage to Lina's first two nukes together. Rearm becomes more viable once you have more mana, so you take it later.
MoM provides mid-to-lategame lane control, and helps against Roshan. 1 level of Stats before Level 10 is just to give a boost to mana and health, which helps support Rearm.
Items
Tinker is pretty good on his own, he just needs boots to add survivability and more speed for ganking. When you finish BoT, you still need health so grab a couple bracers and you're good to go. Rearm affects items, remember this fact. Mana is to support his massive mana consumption(duh).

Strategy
Stay back early game, harass but always keep enough mana for one spell. Gank a lot. You can roam well with BoT once you finish them, so go ahead. With BoT you can chase, but don't dive too far into the towers. Remember the unfair range on your missles, you can fire from behind trees, while chasing, you name it. If you play correctly, 1 pair of rockets can send enemy heroes scurrying back to base in fear of a gank. When it gets to that point, you've won. Congratulations
