Doom Offlane

Key Strategy

Key strategic elements to consider when playing Doom

• Bonus gold from Devour is granted at the end of the Devour cycle and you will lose it if you die.
• Once you get Blink Dagger, try to make use of it immediately before your opponents see it in your inventory.
• Usually you want to devour Centaur Conqueror and obtain War Stomp to disable opponents after blink and cast Doom.
• Avoid showing yourself at the start of the fight and wait for your Doom target to show.
• Avoid fighting while Doom is on cooldown. Push out lanes or play defensively.
• Check opponents` inventories for Linken`s Spheres and Lotus Orbs. Be careful not to drop Doom on those.
• Look to use Devour as frequently as possible on lane creeps or neutral creeps to keep getting gold and XP.
