ADVICE
- Warlock attacks from range: 600 against Pudge's 175. Expect harass, and hook when Warlock steps up to attack.
- Warlock is faster (300 movement speed against 280): hook from fog rather than chase.
- Upheaval is channeled. Warlock stands still while channeling, which is a good moment for Meat Hook.
- Chaotic Offering pierces spell immunity, so Black King Bar on Pudge does not stop it.

- Chaotic Offering has the longest base cooldown: 165 s at level 1. Once it is used, Warlock waits a while to use it again.
