I would buy Assault Cuirass for physical fights and pressure on buildings. The aura needs to help allies who are actually nearby.

RUSLAN / IN-GAME DECISION

How I decide

«I bring Cuirass's aura where allies are already ready to attack.»

Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
01 Situation
The team pressures a hero or building with physical attacks and stays together.
02 My decision
I take a position where allies and the relevant opponent receive the aura effects.
03 What I avoid
Move to the other end of the map carrying the aura during decisive shared pressure.
