< Dota 2
Lion is a ranged intelligence hero that is usually played as a support. He is known as one of the best heroes at crowd control with his Earth Spike and Hex, both of which are potent disables. He can also do massive burst damage with his Finger of Death ultimate. If he ever runs low on mana, he can easily steal it from his enemies. A very scary hero to go up against.
