Sounds like you just need more practice/experience. Even though you have almost 1000 games, that’s still not that much relative to how many games you need to get good at dota.

General DiscussionAny tips for an active-item-noob?
When I'm playing, I sometimes forget to use some of my active items because of anxiety during fights, especially the neutral items. That's why I try to build passive items like S&Y, Tarrasque, Assault Cuirass as often as possible. My item slot shortcuts are as follow: (from left to right, top to bottom)
<Space>, D, F, C, V, B. Neutral item: mouse 5
I try not to build an active item for V and B if possible.
I reserve <space> for Phase boots or Shadow Blade, Eul's.
I reserve <C> for Blink dagger
I reserve <F> for Magic Wand
I reserve <D> for Force Staff, BM,
So I rarely build Halberd, Lotus Orb, Scythe of Vyse etc.
How can I improve? Are there others with such a handicap?
