How I decide
«Recovery from magic requires the magic to actually connect.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- The hero deals sustained spell damage and loses health in the same fight.
- 02 My decision
- I use Bloodpact during an active damage cycle, preserving the ability to carry out that cycle beforehand.
- 03 What I avoid
- Activate recovery when the whole combo is unavailable or the enemy has already left.
When I would buy it
After covering basic mobility and protection, if the hero's mechanics suit spell lifesteal.
