Tips and Tricks
Once he reaches level 2, Lion has two hard disables—Hex and Earth Spike—that enable him to set up kills in almost any circumstance.
Be aware that because all of Lion’s spells have a single target, they can all be prevented by Linken’s Sphere or, worse still, reflected by Lotus Orb.
Lion may be played in a multitude of ways due to his great early debilitating potential.
Be mindful of the benefits of Earth Spike ground targeting. The stun’s actual range is around 300 units shorter than the cast range.
