Tips and Tricks
The majority of Magnus’ skills only function well when his targets are directly in front of him.
Due of the likelihood that Magnus’ initiations would be abrupt, players must communicate with the team.
The adversary may be drawn behind your hero, so you can use a close range Shockwave to position yourself for a Skewer attack.
Right-click behind yourself when you cast RP after Blinking into the other squad. The enemy will all be stunned at the correct Skewer angle without you needing to run around behind them because Magnus will spin as you cast RP.
Magnus’s Ability
SHOCKWAVE
Magnus launches a wave of force that harms opponent units in a line, draws them toward him, and temporarily slows them.
EMPOWER
Provides extra damage and cleave on attack to an allied unit. Magnus earns a bonus that is 50% greater.
SKEWER
With his enormous tusk, Magnus surges forward, goring opponent units. Heroes that are hit while traveling will be dragged to their destination, where they will be harmed and have their mobility and attack speed lowered.
HORN TOSS
Magnus launches all adversaries in front of him to his back. Enemies take damage, are stunned for an additional time after landing, spend 0.6 seconds in the air, and take damage.
