1. Furion's Story

The land is never safe. Furion, therefore, never rests. The leader of all Night Elves, Furion tirelessly works to protect the sanctity of his woods. It comes as no surprise that he who helped defeat Archimonde would be called upon once more in the Sentinel's hour of need. The fury of nature is at his disposal, the trees come to life at his command, the wind carries him to lands far away, and nature itself strikes all who defy his will. He is more than just a Keeper or a Prophet, he is a savior.

2. Furion's Introduction

~Back to Table of Contents

Furion is a hero mostly known for his huge pushing power - with his ultimate Wrath of Nature, Force of nature and Teleportation he is capable of pushing two lanes in the same time. However in this guide I will reduce the role of pushing and increase his role as a hero killer/semi carry.

Does it work you ask? Yeah, it does very well. With his Sprout he can immobilize enemy hero for quite a long time and thanks to Teleportation he is always in the right place when needed. Also Wrath of Nature can not be ignored. This is spell that allows you to kill fleeing heroes pretty well early game, especially with some practice and a bit of luck.

In my opinion playing Furion as a hero killer/semi carry is much funnier than making him a pure pusher and also makes him easier to control and opens new possibilities with item builds.

Ok, if you think that my way of playing Furion sounds nice, then proceed to next parts of this guide.

Also please note, that this build is not meant to be played in competitive games!

4. Hero's Skills

~Back to Table of Contents

- Sprout

Skill Description

Level 1 - Traps the target using trees for 3.00 seconds
Level 2 - Traps the target using trees for 3.75 seconds
Level 3 - Traps the target using trees for 4.50 seconds
Level 4 - Traps the target using trees for 5.25 seconds

Cooldown: 11/10/9/8
Manacost: 100/120/140/160
Description: Unique "disable" which uses trees to surround and immobilize the target. I lasts very long but is easily counterable by Tangos, Quelling Blade, Blink and few other spells. Trapped unit might attack you and cast spells. However it obstructs enemy vision, so unless you attack him or he has allies around he won't be able to see you. Can used to give you some free hits in lane and to help allies set their AoE nukes. In some cases you might use it on yourself/your allies to TP safely.

Facts about Sprout:
- Gives 1000 AoE flying vision, so might be used to scout or prevent being juked
- Might trap more than one unit
- With proper positioning trapped unit might see through the trees
- Casting range is the same as attack range

__________________________________________________

- Teleportation

Skill Description

Level 1 - Teleports to target location
Level 2 - Teleports to target location
Level 3 - Teleports to target location
Level 4 - Teleports to target location

Cooldown: 50/40/30/20
Manacost: 50/45/40/35
Description: Awesome skill which makes Furion one of the most mobile heroes in game. This skill allows us not to buy Teleport Scrolls at all, saving few hundreds of gold. Thanks to teleportation Furion is always in the right place when needed, allowing him to push, farm and gank at any time. Use it to teleport to your allies lanes for a surprise gank and to catch fleeing heroes. Note that you need to explore most of the map to make this skill really effective.

Facts about Teleportation:
- Can only be casted on explored parts of the map
- A swirl effect is visible on target location, visible to allies and enemies
- Has 3 seconds casting time
- Might be interrupted without wasting mana and CD with "Stop" command
- Might be used to scare and distract enemies

__________________________________________________

- Force of Nature

Skill Description

Level 1 - Raises 2 Treants
Level 2 - Raises 3 Treants
Level 3 - Raises 4 Treants
Level 4 - Raises 5 Treants

Cooldown: 37
Manacost: 160
Description: Nice pushing skill that allows you to summon treants. Note that you can summon up to 10 treants with its duration being constant 60 seconds and cooldown 37. In my build we won't be getting this skill, unless you chose to farm in the jungle.

Facts about Force of Nature:
- Treants can be raised from trees created by Sprout
- Treants have 550 HP and deal 21-23 normal damage
- Treants have 60 seconds duration and might be used for scouting
- Strong during early-mid game

__________________________________________________

- Wrath of Nature

Skill Description

Level 1 - Deals 140 (155*) base damage, has a maximum of 12 targets
Level 2 - Deals 180 (210*) base damage, has a maximum of 14 targets
Level 3 - Deals 225 (275*) base damage, has a maximum of 16 targets

Cooldown: 90/60/60
Manacost: 150/175/200
Description: Your ultimate. It has global range and might deal suprisingly high damage with the last few bounces. Early game use it for finishing fleeing heroes and after lvl 11 feel free to farm with this skill. Always try to target creeps first so that heroes will take more damage, but be careful - units in the fog of war won't be affected. Use it to push multiple lanes and delay enemy pushes. Also useful for farming jugnle, I'll describe it in details later.

Facts about Wrath of Nature:
- Global casting range
- Won't hit units in the fog of war
- Each bounce adds 7% damage

5. Hero's Skill Build

Skill Build one: Laning
Level 1 - Sprout
Level 2 - Teleportation
Level 3 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 4 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 5 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 6 - Wrath of Nature
Level 7 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 8 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 9 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 10 - Stats/Force of Nature
Level 11 - Wrath of Nature

Level 18 - Stats
Level 19 - Stats
Level 20 - Stats
Level 21 - Stats
Level 22 - Force of Nature/Stats
Level 23 - Force of Nature
Level 24 - Force of Nature
Level 25 - Force of Nature

Skill Build Justification:
This build focuses on maxing Sprout or Teleportation first. Which one to max first is matter of personal preference. One point in Force of Nature might be taken at Level 10 to use treants as scouts (optional - you have Sprout with 1000 AoE flying vision after all) or to tank the tower/creeps for this few tiny seconds they live. With this build you should either go to the middle lane for fast gold and level or pair yourself with ranged stunner/nuker and dominate dual lane.

Skill Build two: Jungle
Level 1 - Force of Nature
Level 2 - Sprout/Teleportation
Level 3 - Force of Nature
Level 4 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 5 - Force of Nature
Level 6 - Wrath of Nature
Level 7 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 8 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 9 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 10 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 11 - Wrath of Nature
Level 12 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 13 - Teleportation/Sprout
Level 14 - Stats
Level 15 - Stats
Level 16 - Wrath of Nature
Level 17 - Stats
Level 18 - Stats
Level 19 - Stats
Level 20 - Stats
Level 21 - Stats
Level 22 - Stats
Level 23 - Stats
Level 24 - Stats
Level 25 - Force of Nature

Skill Build Justification:
This build will be used when we decide to jungle with Furion. Force of Nature is not taken at level 7, because we won't sit in the jungle forever, right? In this build I strongly advice to skill Teleportation before Sprout at levels 7-10 to increase our mobility during this gank-heavy period of game.
