Legion Commander Offlane

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Legion Commander

• Consider skilling Press the Attack on level 1 or 2 if you are being harassed by dispellable damage-over-time spells.
• Use Overwhelming Odds to secure a creep last hit and harass the enemy heroes at the same time, especially if it is the enemy ranged creep.
• Aggro creeps on yourself to increase Moment of Courage procs. It can be useful for denying as well. You can also abuse the global aggro mechanic to force creeps to hit you later into the game.
• Once you get Blink Dagger, do not give up farm to start running around the map. Keep scaling into the game while making plays happen at the same time.
• Make sure not to overblink as you will land 240 units shorter than the maximum of 1200.
• Duelling any hero is fine in early to midgame to collect Duel victories which will then allow you to potentially solo kill heroes.
• In mid to late game make sure to Duel specific heroes and not care about Duel victory as much.
• Sometimes it is better not to initiate fights, but rather stay back to save an ally with Press the Attack and turn the fight around. Patience is key.
