How to Play Shadow Shaman

Hello my dears,
Today I am here with a tutorial on a powerful support hero.

The hero Shadow Shaman is a suitable support for playing alongside a carry hero. This hero has the ability to hold enemy heroes and also to hex enemy heroes.

Also, the ultimate ability of the Shadow Shaman hero can deal deadly strikes to enemy heroes, as well as to enemy towers and creeps.

Let’s get to know the hero Shadow Shaman a little better.

Pros and Cons of Shadow Shaman

Pros:

Has the abilities Hex and Shackles, which are really annoying for enemy heroes.
Doesn’t need any special items at the beginning of the game.
Has relatively sufficient mana.
Good at harassing enemy heroes.

Cons:

Before activating the Ultimate, it is weak in one-on-one battles.
It is always targeted by enemy heroes, especially in the mid and late game.
Because of his abilities, it often initiates team fights and becomes a target for enemy attacks.

Ether Shock:

With this ability, Shadow Shaman can deal damage to enemies. Yellow sparks resembling lightning strike the enemies.
This ability is suitable for farming as well as getting kills.
You can use this ability to kill enemy heroes who have lower HP.

Hex:

With this ability, you can turn enemy heroes into a chicken.
In this state, the enemy hero cannot attack or use their spells and also takes a lot of damage.
Important note: If you use this ability on illusions, the targeted illusion will be destroyed.

Shackles:

Magically, it grabs an enemy unit and prevents it from moving. It also deals a small amount of damage to the enemy hero.
You can use this ability to hold an enemy hero in place so your own heroes can attack them.
If you attack while holding the enemy hero, the Shackles will break.
You can use this ability after using your Ultimate to deal a lot of damage to enemy heroes.

Mass Serpent Ward:

Using the Ultimate ability of the hero Shadow Shaman, you can summon a number of snakes (10).
These snakes deal a lot of damage to heroes or towers within their range.
In the new update, instead of summoning 10 snakes, you can summon one larger snake that deals more damage than the ten snakes combined.
Spells have no effect on these snakes; they only take physical damage.

How Shadow Shaman became my best support Hero in dota 2:

First of all, let me say that if you want to play a support hero who gives you the feel of a carry and can still be impactful in the late game without getting reported, Shadow Shaman is the best choice for you.

Shadow Shaman has the ability to hex enemies as well as the ability to Shackles them.
On the other hand, Shadow Shaman’s powerful ultimate can deal a lot of damage to enemy heroes and also to enemy towers.
By using the ultimate and the Shackles ability, you can easily and effectively defeat enemy heroes in one-on-one battles.
Shadow Shaman’s ultimate ability is also highly suitable for pushing lanes.
