Fafnir is a god that can be played into almost every comp, however he truly shines when there is more than 1 AA centric god on his team. Fafnirs second ability Coerce lets him increase the damage his teammates do with Autos. This makes for very easy plays around Gold Fury, and Fire Giant. You make your team able to burn these objectives sooner than they would normally be able to. Along with your 2, your 1 Cursed Strength is a Hammer toss that passes through minions and stopping on the first enemy god hit stunning them in place. This is great set up for your teammates if they are around to follow up off this. Your third ability Underhanded Tactics is a leap, this ability does come with a hefty cooldown, but it does provide some very good out play potential when fighting. When you land on the enemy you will cause them to be disarmed and not able to auto attack for a short period of time. This gives your team time to set up and cc the target for free. Your ultimate Dragonic Corruption is basically a super boosted version of all your abilities. Your auto attacks become a breath attack, your 1 is still a stun, your 2 is a larger AoE that lets you hit your entire team, and your 3 is now a cone stun when you land on enemies. Fafnir is not without his own faults though. Fafnir does come with long cooldowns for each ability, and when he is retransforming from Dragon to Dwarf he is stuck in place free to be targeted by the enemy. Do your best to make sure you watch your cooldown on the ult so you are in a safe place when going back to dwarf form.

First (highest priority) is his 1, as it is his main damage ability, and increases CC duration and lowers CD per level. Due to these, it takes priority over the ult, thus being maxed at 9 instead of leveling the ult at 9.
Second priority is his 2 (also takes priority over the ult), due to the increasing attack speed buff, % bonus damage, and self heal (though that's a minor point).
His 3, unlike his 1 and 2, only increases in damage, so at this point, it's got lowest priority...at this point, you level the ult whenever possible, and just level the 3 when you have no other option.
