Juggernaut
Use lane kill threat and sustain to reach farm, then choose clean isolated fight entries.
First check
What happens when Blade Fury ends, and who can reach you then?
Play as Juggernaut
- Coordinate lane control with your support before committing Blade Fury. The enemy’s escape path matters as much as your damage.
- Place Healing Ward where allies can protect it while continuing the push. Move it as the fight or objective shifts.
- Look for Omnislash targets away from unwanted units and enemy saves. Be ready to reset if the target survives the first commitment.
Play against Juggernaut
- Respect the early lane threat when your escape spell or support response is unavailable; do not give him a straight chase through open space.
- Destroy or force back Healing Ward before committing to a long fight or tower defense.
- Keep track of nearby units and saves when he looks for Omnislash. Separate the fight so one cast does not decide the objective.
Make the lesson stick
Review two Blade Fury commitments and ask whether the wave, escape route, and support positions made the chase favorable.
