If ur team have a two or more gankers/Hight_killing_potential like a : Slark, Mortred, Huskar, Rikki , or jumpers/lotharists like a : Axe , Nevermore, Ursa and other hight mobile ganker heroes - Rooftrellen IS A GOOD CHOICE . And he is a second my favorite hero :)

Atropos
(http://www.planetdota2.com/img/2013/06/atropos2.jpg)
Many times , pro players in AP free games picking a very danger hero - Pugna , so if u wonna try to counter that mage , or other simmilar heroes - Atropos is a perfect choise ! And his incredible abillity to decrease the enemy hero damage is a perfect VS such heroes like a Legion Commander , that is a mostly standard hero at AP free games ??? .
But plaing for this hero is pretty hard , he have no skills to farm creeps or push the towers so u are usefull only in ganks\deff :*(
Skills_build: 1. Brain_Sap\Nightmare 2. Brain_Sap 3. Enfeeble
Items Build : 1.If enemy team have a many harrasers , Magic Stick is useful so bying branches is a good start . 2 Usually Ghost Stuff, Forse Staff, or other stuff :) if oppousing team have a invisiblers , u need a perfect artifact for this hero - Necrominomicron . 3 Aghanim_Scepter , Black King Bar, or something to surviving

If ur team have some meele dmg heroes, and one or more INT , Pit Lord will be a PERFECT choice. With him ability to push/antipush lines , good surveability , and very team-useful 6th level skill, this hero can be very danger oponnets vs such heroes like Zombie, Naga, Nessaj .
Abilities (aka Skills)
- Firestorm
(http://media.playdota.com/hero/80/skill-0.gif) - Perfect AOE skill for deffend ur towers , or cause back enemy heroes when they deffnding :P , Can do DMG to the buildings
- Pit of Malice
(http://media.playdota.com/hero/80/skill-1.gif) - good skil to combine with ur alias abilities, for example with Butcher`s ulty , or with Ancient Aparation Cold Feet :) , it`s a very useful skill when u defend ur allias, for example Legion trying to engage ur ally Sniper, u using Pit of Malice to give the time for ur sniper step back :P
- Atrophy Aura
(http://media.playdota.com/hero/80/skill-2.png) - very useful aura vs many of heroes that using Manta Style , or have a bad AttSpd and hight DMG (like a Skeleton King) , and it`s adds to Azzgalor some addition DMG :P when heroes and creeps dying near him .
- Dark Rift
(http://media.playdota.com/hero/80/skill-3.gif) - useful when u playing with a mates, dont hard to use in total freegames, but it has a good potential when ur team have no SplitPushers like a Furion or Thinker.
Items
Items is depending on game or ur playing style , but i am in the most of game, prefere like that.
First build:
Cyrcle of Nobility , Courier, Branch , Tango
Second build:
Bracer`s, Perseverence, Power Threads, Vanguard or Observers, Dusts, Sentry`s
Third build:
Eye of Skady, Plate Mail , Heart of Tarasque, Shiva`s Armor or Assault Curiass, for hard teamply u need something like a Refresher :P
But this hero looks like pretty evil , and i dont like how it looks :S .
I hope this guide will help`s to some newbies, in free DotA games, AP mode.
