Tips and Tricks
To make his spells work, Invoker heavily relies on levels.
The spells cast by Invoker often work well together. Being able to combo them is essential for playing Invoker well.
The linear AoE spells that Invoker frequently casts have devastating effects in chokepoints.
Chaining spell combinations is simpler when the appropriate orbs are ready prior to an engagement.
The cooldowns on all of Invoker’s spells are quite lengthy. Try to push towers to force adversaries to teleport back to their base while you teleport back yourself if your spells are on cooldown and there is a fight.
