Don't max Adaptive early. It does garbage damage in the early game. Wave at 1/3/5/7, Ulti at 6/11/16, and Morph maxed second, with 1 level of Adaptive at 2 or 4 to cancel TPs. Wraiths are good, travels good, bottle/wand good, manta good. If you're doing extremely well, farming and HK wise, sometimes I like to get a Pers to just make passive farming faster with the regen to Wave a lot. Diffusal isn't necessary now that it doesn't build into Manta. Heart isn't necessary either. After Travels/Wand/Wraiths/Manta, you could go Butterfly or Skadi next. I prefer Skadi, personally. If the game is going past this, you're playing too conservatively. Morph is an amazing pub stomper and can basically rax lanes solo at late game.
Between Wave/Travels/Replicate/Str Morph, its almost impossible to die much at all on Morphling. If you don't know where the enemy is, just make a replicate and send it to the fountain and you'll never die. At level 16 you have like 20 seconds where you won't be able to have one up, so use it well and use it often. Once you're farmed, you can practically 1v5 pubs np.
