Description

Character description

Medusa is a ranged character. Her primary attribute is agility. The hero is mainly taken to the easy lane as a carry. Most effective in the late game.

Role description

Medusa can farm effectively and push lanes quickly thanks to her Split Shot and Mystic Snake abilities. The hero is always ready for a team fight. Activating of Stone Gaze will force opponents to change their positions or be at a disadvantage. In the late game, Mana Shield turns Medusa into a real frontlaner who can survive most attacks. Aghanim's Shard grants the Cold Blooded passive ability, which, along with Mystic Snake, can be upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter making Medusa an even stronger ally in team fights.

Character lore

Medusa, was the only of the three beautiful daughters of the sea goddess, who did not happen to be born an immortal creature. Once, masked assailants invaded the Gorgon realm and tore the two immortal sisters from their home. She then begged her mother to grant her power in exchange for her beauty. Never for a moment has Medusa regretted her choice. For only power can change the world.
