bf sin was my first build on ladder. it was a blast playing a brand new build. mine was ssf except for a bartucs i traded my nm forge drop for until after killing hell baal. Here's some details about her:
Bladesin
The following was my first ever attempt at this build, and my first character in Ladder Season 1 in D2R:
20 points in every blade skill
1 point in tiger strike (easier leveling in normal)
1 point death sentry
1 point every shadow skill
Remaining points into venom
My damage with some very budget gear was 1500 on blade fury.
Some things I noted in this run:
* Blade sentry was straight up OP in normal with multiple points invested. Less useful in Hell, but still added to my DPS by the time I was fighting hell baal.
* Leech works incredibly well with this build. To the point I could ignore weaker enemies attacking me because my HP regen outpaced their DPS.
* Crushing blow makes a massive difference. Blade Fury works well with most the procs you'd want on a kicksin.
* The build felt viable the entire game despite being nearly 100% SSF. The toughest part was hell ancients. Other than that I didn't run into many situations that were difficult to handle. I was surprised.

Little out of date, she's been upgraded since I wrote this. Gained four levels, got torch and anni, etc.
