How to play Pudge vs Rubick

ADVICE

  • Rubick is faster (290 movement speed against 280): hook from fog rather than chase.
  • Spell Steal pierces spell immunity, so Black King Bar on Pudge does not stop it.
  • Fade Bolt has Rubick's shortest base cooldown: 16 s at level 1. Expect it more often than the other abilities.
