    Was Naga the greatest because she was so contested, or was she so contested because she was the greatest? To this question, she replied thus: "Throughout the patches and map changes, I alone am the one who farms 3 jungle camps and 2 waves at the same time."

    I started playing Dota around two years ago but I always crafted my own builds and roles spamming stuff like Dark seer 4 and Venomancer counter-jungle but the one I had the most fun with was Naga Siren support and I got insulted a lot from the moment I picked her! Never knew she had an epoch where support was her main role, it always made sense to me with her kit and shard, I specially enjoy stacking 2 camps at the same time while staying in lane and denying enemy runes, she's the most fun I've had in Dota 2 😊

      This is exactly how I felt when I would play support Alchemist. Like, hear me out guys, I focus on using concoction and acid spray to zone the enemies and ult for Regen so I don't need items to spam abilities. Then just hit.creeps later to catch up if game goes late. Makes a lot more sense then you'd think.

    It should be mentioned that one of the reasons she was great as a support before 7.00 is that gem of true sight worked on her illusions, so she could control the map in an oppressive way while also playing in safe positions.

  • @SamSGLM
    @SamSGLM 12 днів тому

    A very important detail of early ti naga is the pairing with AA.
    AA cold embrace was an aoe spell that buffed allied controled units with on hit damage for a few attacks. It wasnt uncommon to cast it on 5 and smoke dank the offlanereven so if the smoke break naga splits and all illusions can get buffed. That melted heroes, that's why cold had a attack speed de buff because of how it was abused. I believe broodlings could also abuse it.
    Naga as visage a unstoppable lane, net cold feet. Cold embrace the naga army and blow someone up with soul assumptions.
    Even as a support this was picked a lot to cheese an enemy aggressive triplane.

Naga for me is the most rewarding hero because it has a lot of dota mechanics packed in it.. the possibilities are endless.
