Gameplay
![]() Legion Commander is a ganking carry whose damage potential is theoretically unlimited. She is able to heal, buff herself and her allies with ![]() Press the Attack, and finish off enemies with ![]() Overwhelming Odds.

Pros | Cons |
Strong nuke vs crowded enemies specially heroes with summons and illusions.Tanky during laning phase.Extremely dangerous against frail heroes. | Dependent on winning Duels.High mana cost during laning phase.Can buff enemy carries if she loses Duels. |
Laning
Legion Commander is a competent solo offlaner. Overwhelming Odds, her nuke, means she can harrass and last hit safely, and can pull the hard camp from farther away than most melee offlaners.
Jungle
Legion Commander is a semi-competent jungler thanks to the attack speed/health regeneration of Press the Attack and the massive lifesteal from Moment of Courage. She should come out of the jungle every time Duel is off cooldown though, or she will be ineffective.

General
Even though Legion Commander is technically a carry, she needs to also gank early to increase her bonus damage from Duel.Be sure to take advantage of any ganking opportunities, instead of farming endlessly away from your team.Legion Commander works best in coordinated teams that can effectively soften and disable a target for her to kill with Duel, and thus snowball as a hard hitting dps carry.It”s very benefical to build items that allow you to initiate such as Blink Dagger.
Abilities

Overwhelming OddsIs a really powerfull nuke, think of it as a smaller Echo Slam on a much lower cooldown and decent cast range.It”s most effective against multiple enemy heroes, It”s best to save this spell to cast when you can hit all the enemy heroes in your lane.Using this in the jungle is often a waste of mana due to most camps only having 2-3 creeps, and stacks often having multiple magic resistance auras.It can be used to stack a camp at a distance in order to return to lane faster, or to stack two camps at once.

Press the AttackUse Press the Attack before joining a fight or initiating a Duel to give Legion Commander bonus attack speed.Remember that this spell heals and dispels debuffs. Use it on allies if they are low on health, or need a stun or other debuff dispelled.If your carry has more damage per attack than you, use it on them during a push.Press the attack has a very long cast backswing (0.93 seconds), and should be cancelled whenever possible to take advantage of the attack speed as soon as possible.

Moment of CourageThe lifesteal and extra damage allows Legion Commander to jungle as early as level one.The benefit of leveling this skill is minimal in the early game. A second point is enough to jungle sustainably, after that it”s usually better to max her other skills first.Take advantage of enemy creeps by dueling near the creep wave. They will attack you and thus proc Moment of Courage more often.The instant attacks from this passive act like a situationally active attack speed boost which can put her effective attack speed above the normal 600 attack speed limit.Deals full damage with lifesteal added.

DuelEven if an ally deals the killing blow during a duel, the attack damage is still applied to the surviving duelist.In the early game, Duel easier targets like supports to make sure Legion Commander gets the bonus damage.When Dueling enemies with more health, make sure Legion Commander has the damage and/or assistance to. Otherwise, you may end up granting bonus damage to the enemy carry.Generally, DO NOT Duel enemy carries unless they”re very low on health already.Due to the double edged nature of Duel, attempting to use it liberally on targets in teamfights can sometimes give bad results for you and your team.Initiating with it is not always the best choice as duels should ideally not last long in order to avoid being stunned and denied of your success.Duel will silence and mute both participants, so you should use your abilities and items before starting a Duel.With

Aghanim”s Scepter, Duel grants Legion Commander spell immunity and renders both participants immune to all sources of damage that does not originate from either combatant, thereby increasing the odds of success of Legion Commander winning a Duel.Take note that although Legion Commander is immune to spells and other sources of damage, it does not mean that other Heroes are useless in such a situation. Enemy Heroes can still hamper you with passives and abilities that pierces spell immunity, such as through Bashes and auras, or assist your opponent such that you do not secure a win, such as

Shallow Grave or

Astral Imprisonment. Likewise, the same can be applied to Legion Commander if a Duel happens to go wayward.Although it is still incredibly risky, depending on circumstances, if you happen to be ambushed by an overwhelming presence (such as by five Heroes), it is possible to survive such a situation by intentionally Dueling an opponent since you will negate all other sources of damage except from your opposing duelist. Be sure to target Heroes with low attack speed and/or low damage to reduce the chances of you dying from such a situation.
