Leshrac Mid

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Leshrac

• You should use Split Earth or Lightning Storm to secure ranged creeps during the laning stage. Remember to time it with right clicks if necessary.
• Use Split Earth when opponents are likely to be stationary, e.g. when they are going for lasthit or deny. Also, use it immediately after Lightning Storm to increase chances of landing the stun.
• Split Earth breaks trees which can be useful against certain heroes.
• Diabolic Edict pulses give you a hint of where the opponents` invisible hero is.
• Alert your teammates to stack for you as you can clear stacks as soon as you hit level 6.
• Leshrac is really good at taking buildings early on due to wave clear and Diabolic Edict. Look for objectives when your teammates are grouping up to push early on.
• You can damage a building with Diabolic Edict by hiding yourself in trees next to it. However, consider the risks vs rewards whenever attempting this based on map awareness.
• Itemize for survivability and mobility to be able to position yourself in the center of the fight. Think about items such as Eul`s Scepter and Black King Bar.
• Leshrac is great at splitpushing due to mobility, wave clear and tower damage.
• When opponents get Black King Bars, you typically need to kite those and itemize to survive their duration.
• Pick up Aghanims Shard if you need to defend high ground or siege.
