Tips and Tricks
Go gank other lanes once your lane companion has had a little period of safety. You should have no trouble getting kills thanks to your stun and slow.
Utilize Ogre Magi’s early tankiness to your advantage. While suffering little damage yourself, you trade blows with your opponents.
Control your mana. If you’re not careful, Ogre Magi can rapidly run out, so try not to use more than is necessary.
Ogre Magi may annoy the foes outside of his lane because of his excellent base armor and rapid base health regeneration. This is because most heroes are likely unable to win early hit-for-hit battles with Ogre Magi.
Ogre Magi’s Ability
FIREBLAST
Sends a wave of fire at an opposing unit, damaging and stunning the victim.
IGNITE
Injects flammable chemicals into the target and a random unit, causing it to catch fire. The target is moving more slowly, suffering excruciating pain, and taking damage.
BLOODLUST
Increases a friendly unit’s attack and mobility speeds by igniting a frenzy in it. Boosts attack speed when cast on the Ogre himself. It is castable on towers.
UNREFINED FIREBLAST
Sends a wave of fire at an opposing unit, stunning the victim and delivering 150.0 + 1.5x Ogre’s Strength in damage. It uses 35.0% of the mana currently being used by Ogre Magi.
FIRE SHIELD
The target ally is surrounded by a shield that takes some of the damage from the next 3.0 strikes from hostile heroes. A fireball is hurled toward the attacker after harm has been absorbed. It is castable on towers.
