How to play Pudge vs Bane

ADVICE

  • Bane attacks from range: 425 against Pudge's 175. Expect harass, and hook when Bane steps up to attack.
  • Bane is faster (305 movement speed against 280): hook from fog rather than chase.
  • Fiend's Grip is channeled. Bane stands still while channeling, which is a good moment for Meat Hook.
  • Brain Sap and Fiend's Grip pierce spell immunity, so Black King Bar on Pudge does not stop them.
  • Brain Sap has Bane's shortest base cooldown: 17 s at level 1. Expect it more often than the other abilities.
  • Fiend's Grip has the longest base cooldown: 120 s at level 1. Once it is used, Bane waits a while to use it again.
  • Fiend's Grip is channeled, according to the ability data.
