Tips and Tricks
Although Necrophos can succeed in any of the three lanes, he is most often used as a midlaner since it is safer to push the lane with Death Pulse and because he can get a lot of levels and farm in this position.
Because of his passive abilities, Death Pulse and Heartstopper Aura, Necrophos is effective in laning stages.
When utilizing Reaper’s Scythe, put the enemy carry or mid in first place.
Ganks frequently target Necrophos. Avoid going overboard and waiting too long to use Ghost Shroud against magical nukers.
Necrophos’s Ability
DEATH PULSE
Around him, Necrophos unleashes a wave of death that harms hostile troops while healing allies.
GHOST SHROUD
Necrophos sneaks into the area where the living and the dead are segregated. He can neither attack nor be attacked, yet he can still release an aura that slows nearby foes. In this form, he is more vulnerable to magic harm, but his healing abilities are enhanced.
HEARTSTOPPER AURA
Necrophos stops his enemies’ hearts, forcing nearby enemy units to gradually lose some of their maximum health. For every unit Necrophos kills, it passively grants regeneration for 8.0 seconds.
DEATH SEEKER
Necrophos transforms into a large Death Pulse and moves in the direction of the target unit. The Death Pulse spreads to neighboring foes and allies once it gets to the area.
