BEST SUPPORT HERO of 7.35D (Position 4) - Tips & Tricks to Gain MMR - Dota 2 Shadow Shaman Guide

First

you were indeed first

Ekki doto KEKL

Speeed pls, always do MID Tier list first :(

Bros if you cant rank up as a support you arent a good support, supports are so important and so impactful!

I typically like to hex the carry or stun first and then follow up with snakes (hopefully around the support) and then shackle inside the snakes

Shadow Shamen has always been the support i play on the rare occasions I need to play support. Glad he is getting his due.

There’s more cores because there’s more core positions no?

finally a Shaman guide! nice!

For shaman getting boots or ms like windlace is so key early. He hits like a truck and can cc for a long time. He is just super slow with no attack range.

'innate stout shield block' damn bro u didn't have to do me like that

nah, it's not that complicated
your overcooking on this one

No one will SEA with watch this

Must be nice to play with a pudge who waits for your setup stun and doesn't just throw random ass hooks off c/d. Also, I'm pretty convinced that leaving the enemy safe lane tower up when you are crushing the offlane is the better play as it almost always leaves them with only jungle creeps.

noo ekki.doto2 what are you doing here. qojqva will be sad

Welp there goes my fav hero

thanks bro I was watching Ekki spamming gyro and copying it with a bunch of dubs.

About the Hex, Shackle combination.
1 more reason to hex before shackle is that you can chainstun.
If u shackle first there is a small window where ppl can React with lotus,bkb, naga q so on.
While when you hex first, u can chainstun them.
Also there are 3 Uses for shaman ult in the early game.

If u made stacks, but have no one to farm them, u can use your ult for it. Just kite the creeps (works great with ancients too.
Place it bewteen 2 Camps.

How do people find it harder to get mmr as a support?
I find people generally can’t support or refuse to support when I’m core. So it’s usually like I have no support. No wards, no smoke, no pulls, no support items, no stacks, etc.. I basically stopped queuing as pos 1 and 2 due to this as pos 3 generally can do some support and not end up useless late game with the right hero pick.

Love the support vid. So often they are forgotten but so often they are the difference in a win or loss for the team!

I absolutely adore Elder Titan as a hero but struggle a lot on how to play him. I usually play support but I haven't been very successful with him. I'd love to see a video on how to make elder titan broken.

I was today years old when I found out that Shadow Shaman's Shackle has a heal.

I always get shackle and never shock next hex , 3 and 2 always

Finally, now that I have 700W-500L with Shaman XD

Lol calling no aghs on shaman? You need more games on this hero I guess

Is blink stick not instant? Slardar has blink

Nice work, keep doing what you're doing bro!

nice insights

Isn’t hex first will utilize the damage amp for pick off hence may save yourself mana to shackle when it is not needed?
