Bane Support

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Bane

• Bane has improved night vision.
• Bane is great at trading due to great baseline stats and Brain Sap to regain some health.
• If an opponent is below 50%, you can Nightmare him and allow your core to come forward and finish the hero along with you.
• Nightmare provides 1 second of invulnerability and thus you can save an ally in trouble or dodge a spell.
• Bane is great for setting up kills. Nightmare and Fiend`s Grip combined provide up to 13 seconds of disable.
• You can unsleep or cast Glimmer Cape during Fiend`s Grip without canceling it.
• Avoid showing yourself at the start of the teamfight. Let opponents focus your allies so you can get your spells off easier.
• Once you have Aghanims Scepter, you can cancel Fiends Grip channel with your hero without interrupting the ability.
