Tips and Tricks
Puck becomes a capable, if vulnerable, initiate with the help of Blink Dagger.
With Illusory Orb and Waning Rift in the early game, Puck deals a lot of magical damage.
Puck frequently plays in the middle lane, but because to its slippery nature, it can even play a solo lane versus many opponents.
Use Illusory Orb to flee, followed by Phase Shift, and Ethereal Jaunt to teleport to the orb.
Puck has a wide range of builds that can change depending on the game.
Puck’s Ability
ILLUSORY ORB
Puck throws a magic ball into the air that travels straight and harms nearby enemy units. Puck can use Ethereal Jaunt to teleport to the orb at any time.
WANING RIFT
The enemy units nearby are damaged and silenced by a burst of faerie dust that Puck unleashes after teleporting to the target area.
PHASE SHIFT
CHANNELED – For a little moment, Puck enters a dimension where it is protected from damage.
DREAM COIL
Produces a coil of unstable magic that attaches to enemy Heroes, harming and entangling them. The coil snaps if the enemy hero extends it by going too far away, stunning them and causing more damage.
