Tips to maximize your impact
- Save your second bandage
Save a charge of Bandage Toss (Q) after your engage: the spell has two, and the second catches an enemy who escapes with a dash or Flash.
- Wait until your R can hit several
Wait until several enemies are in range to cast Curse of the Sad Mummy (R): it stuns every enemy around you and curses them.
- Burn tanks with Despair
Keep Despair (W) on against tanks: every second, it deals a percentage of their max health to nearby enemies.
- Full clear, then gank
Full clear with Despair (W) and Tantrum (E), then gank: both hit every nearby monster, and Tantrum's cooldown drops when you get hit.
