Ursa
Stay on one target long enough for repeated attacks to matter, then turn the fight into Roshan or a tower.
First check
Who keeps the target in your attack range, and what lets you leave after Enrage?
Play as Ursa
- Use lane control and allied disables to reach one target repeatedly instead of jumping between heroes you cannot finish.
- Scout enemy arrivals before starting Roshan; taking it quickly does not make the pit safe if your exit is covered.
- Treat Enrage as a timed commitment and plan the position you need when it ends, especially if the target can still kite.
Play against Ursa
- Break contact before repeated Fury Swipes make a long trade unwinnable, then re-enter on your team’s control.
- Keep vision or a scout near Roshan when Ursa disappears with teammates, and compare contest risk with a map trade.
- Use spacing and repositioning to force him to spend Enrage before he reaches the hero he wants to finish.
Make the lesson stick
Review two Roshan attempts and three fights: note the first target, time in attack range, and enemy arrival path.
