Tips & Tricks

1. Blinding Light has a short cast time, when trying to blind moving targets, cast accordingly.

2. Make sure to cast your Blinding Light when close enough in case you're trying to capitalize on bonus damage as it only lasts 2 seconds.

3. Lightning Fury explodes on contact with enemy hero, try to cast it in the middle of their team so that it splits inside the group for more damage.

4. Practise comboing Blinding Light and immediately Fending so you use the bonus damage for full 2 seconds on maximum Fend and follow up with basics and other abilities.

5. You cannot change the direction of the Fend dash, but you can cancel it earlier by moving.

6. To heal and sustain in a lane, blind the minion wave and Fend the whole wave to heal for max bonus.

7. Don't forget to activate Charged Strikes after Fend for maximum basic attack damage.

8. Never stop moving.
