Recommended Hero for Hard Support Role (part 2)

In this post, I will recommend another hero that is suitable for the hard support role. This hero is one of my favorite hero that is " Shadow Shaman "

Shadow Shaman is also one of the heroes that I would recommend to play because his skill is really straight to the point and is really useful to be in the team.

Skills

1.Ether Shock

Ether Shock is a dealing-damage spell that will damage units in front of Shadow Shaman in the shape of a cone.

2.Hex

He also possesses the ability to turn an enemy into a harmless creature like Lion does. The only difference is that Lion makes the target to be a frog but Shadow Shaman turns the target to be a chicken.

3.Shackles

Shadow Shaman channel the spell on the target rendering them to be unable to move or do anything. Shadow Shaman has to stand still in order to cast this spell, however.

4.Mass Serpent Wards

Shadow Shaman summons 10 Serpent Wards to attack enemies. What makes this skill very special and useful is that these wards can attack enemies' structure and these wards can destroy most of the building very quickly

He is the strongest neutral creep in DoTA2 and because of his high armor, high attack damage and is very tanky, It is not advisable to go and slay Roshan on your own, but instead, it is a team decision because killing it takes a lot of time and resources, so the best time to fight Roshan is when you think your team is safe like when all of the enemy team is dead or you have the observer ward in the area where you can see them and think that they cannot make to the pit in time. Outside of the Roshan's pit Inside of the Roshan's pit Roshan's Death When Roshan is dead he will grant bounty to the team that kills him of 150 gold for each player in that team. Roshan will randomly spawn again around 8-11 minutes after his death and there is no way to find the exact time of his next life. ...
