I used to main Storm and did pretty well so...
Firstly, how do you NOT get kills? It should be relatively easy to last hit with Remnant or an Overload.
Secondly, Storm is played two ways, as a farming mid or a ganking mid. Both ways should net you high GPM. It might be that you're over committing to ganking. You should be farming whenever you're not smoking or going as a group to kill.
My MMR: 4k (Solo)
Storm is my favorite mid hero. Played 225 games on it. Best advice i can give you is to try to never to go to the fountain. Get bottle, brown boots, wand and rush orchid. Good timing is 15 min mark. 13 min mark is the best you can hope for. Try not to go to base at all if possible. Bottle + mana regen should be 90% of what you depend on for sustain otherwise it means that you are having a bad game. Just stay in lane and farm. Even a single oblivion staff is enough to give you significant regen until the next rune.
For lategame presence Storm doesn't provide much and drops off considerably no matter how many items you have. It is a snowball hero and you have to constantly be two steps ahead or you fall behind.
One more suggestion. Don't get Storm if your opponents have Silencer and very tanky heroes like bristleback, Centaur Warcheif.
Doom does nothing to Storm, I've never had a problem against him. Nyx is annoying but nothing major to fear. Stunners are annoying and will affect your game. The most annoying are those with 0ms cast timings. Rhasta's voodoo into shackle is my bane.
Linken's sphere is a notable counter to storm. Even though you can burn through it with orchid, it is not ideal and potentially very risky. Best thing is specifically targeting heroes trying to get Linken's and shut them down.
Final note, Storm is not a teamfight hero. If you have to engage take the clean up duty. Don't storm bolt initiat because you will die.
Hope the above helps. Feel free to ask for any clarification. Cheers.
Storm is a beast late game, seriously. Too many disables and dmg (ulting two steps from where u are and attacking). He just gets outcarried by real late game carries, but that happens with every semi carry out there

I have been having great success with this hero so far. He is the only mid hero I can play :). The problem I have is that my gpm stays low and I don't get kills.
What normally happens at lv6 or before I get a nice rune and just gank and keep ganking and tp'ing from lane to lane, this creates space. But I feel late game I suffer a bit because I have less gold for items. An average gpm of + 350. My last hits are pretty good, that's not the problem, I just am never standing still. Also how can I get kills as Storm, somehow I never manage to actually get the kills.
Thanks
