What the item does
01
Use: Imbue
Instantly restores 85 health.
How I decide
«I save Fire for the moment when that small amount of health is actually needed.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- A small instant heal can survive the last hit and preserve an escape.
- 02 My decision
- I use the consumable's active effect at the right moment; before that, its damage bonus helps with trading and last hits.
- 03 What I avoid
- Press it too late after death or spend it just to fill the bar.
When I would buy it
At the start, when a close-range trade is a risk.
Which heroes I would try it on
Examples based on mechanics. The role, opponents and team plan determine the final choice.
What to compare it with
Similar purposes do not make items interchangeable. I compare effect, price and timing.
