WickedShinXXV's entry for DotaStrategy's DotActics 2009. Hello, I am WickedShin, and this is my very first guide, I am hoping that this guide will change your perspective with regards to Alleria. In this guide, we will be discussing her Pro and Cons, Alleria can be one hell of a carry/support/lanecontroller/fast-pusher/ganker/defender/chaser or should I say ALL? lol. with a set of unique and PRO-synergy skills, there is indeed a WIDE RANGE OF POSSIBILITIES when it comes to Alleria's abilities. So, stick around, and we will be discussing all of these a little more later.

Alleria

Alleria - Windrunner


Range: 600 | Move Speed: 295
Primary: INT
Str: 15 + 2.5 | Agi: 17 + 1.4 | Int: 22 + 2.6
Damage: 44-56 | HP: 435 | Mana: 286
HP Regen: 0.7 | Mana Regen: 0.89
Attack Speed: 0.78 | Armor: 1
Shackleshot Shackleshot (E)
Alleria fires an enchanted arrow using wind magic that binds the target to an enemy unit or tree behind it.
Level 1 - Stun for 0.75 seconds, or 1.5 if close to enemy unit or tree.
Level 2 - Stun for 0.75 seconds, or 2.25 if close to enemy unit or tree.
Level 3 - Stun for 0.75 seconds, or 3 if close to enemy unit or tree.
Level 4 - Stun for 0.75 seconds, or 3.75 if close to enemy unit or tree.
• If the target isn't shackled to anything, the stun only lasts 0.75 seconds.
• This spell can shackle two enemies together, stunning them both.
• Trees created by Furion's Sprout spell are valid targets for shackling.
• Can shackle the target to an enemy unit or tree at most 425 units behind it.
• Casting range: 600
Mana Cost: 90/100/110/120
Cooldown: 10
Comment: One of the best STUN effect DotA has to offer. With a 14secs cooldown and a decent mana cost, and yeah! you heard it right, a 3.5seconds STUN at about 800 range. Most of the time, this skill is underestimated by players. Understanding it's ability and using it well will make you look like a PRO. we'll be discussing this awesome skill later.

Powershot Powershot (R)
Windrunner winds up her bow for up to 1 second to perform a single powerful shot. The arrow travels 1700 distance, dealing damage and destroying trees in its path. The damaged dealt is greatest to the first target of it hits and is reduced by 10% with each other it passes through.
Level 1 - Fires an arrow that shoots through targets with 120 initial damage, and 10% reduced damage for each other target hit.
Level 2 - Fires an arrow that shoots through targets with 200 initial damage, and 10% reduced damage for each other target hit.
Level 3 - Fires an arrow that shoots through targets with 280 initial damage, and 10% reduced damage for each other target hit.
Level 4 - Fires an arrow that shoots through targets with 360 initial damage, and 10% reduced damage for each other target hit.
• Damage type: magical
• The arrow initially moves at a rate of 3000 units per second.
• The arrow is slowed a little each time it hits an enemy or a tree.
• This spell destroys trees.
• This skill has a short channeling time. If canceled before Alleria finishes channeling, the arrow will deal less damage.
• Casting range: 1800
• Area of Effect: 150
Mana Cost: 90/100/110/120
Cooldown: 9
Comment: The most essential skill when it comes to Lane Controlling/Farming/Harassing and sometimes Last hit running heroes. with it's 9secs cooldown time and a decent mana cost with an intelligence type hero, this is indeed a good damage skill, or should I say SPAMMABLE SKILL?! LOL
Windrunner Windrunner (W)
Imbues her body with the essence of wind, increasing her movement speed by 50% and giving her the ability to evade all physical attacks for short period of time. Additionally, the gusts of wind around her impairs the movement of nearby enemies, slowing their movement speed in a 300 AoE around her.
Level 1 - Gives complete physical evasion, 50% increased MS, and slows nearby enemies by 8%, lasts 2.75 seconds.
Level 2 - Gives complete physical evasion, 50% increased MS, and slows nearby enemies by 16%, lasts 3.50 seconds.
Level 3 - Gives complete physical evasion, 50% increased MS, and slows nearby enemies by 24%, lasts 4.25 seconds.
Level 4 - Gives complete physical evasion, 50% increased MS, and slows nearby enemies by 30%, lasts 5 seconds.
• The slow will affect enemies with magic immunity.
• Incoming projectiles before this skill is activated will not be evaded.
Mana Cost: 100
Cooldown: 30/25/20/15
Focus Fire Focus Fire (F)
Alleria channels wind throughout her body to surge an excess of adrenaline, giving her maximum attack speed. Damage is reduced in this state.
Level 1 - Constantly attacks with 50% reduced damage and maximum attack speed at the target, when Aghanim's Scepter acquired, it does not reduce seconday item effects (like bonus damage from Bash, Chain Lightning).
Level 2 - Constantly attacks with 40% reduced damage and maximum attack speed at the target, when Aghanim's Scepter acquired, it does not reduce seconday item effects (like bonus damage from Bash, Chain Lightning).
Level 3 - Constantly attacks with 30% reduced damage and maximum attack speed at the target, when Aghanim's Scepter acquired, it does not reduce seconday item effects (like bonus damage from Bash, Chain Lightning).
• The damage reduction affects all damage from Alleria while the spell is active, including alternate damage such as orb effects.
• Can target buildings and magic immune units.
• Casting range: 600
Mana Cost: 200/300/400
Cooldown: 60(15)/60(15)/60(15)

and who'll be the one who'll put mjollnir and skadi with both orb effect...
try to change your skadi with shiva's...

420 By jhad_socorum 2010-03-16

I think ZEUS will be no problem to you if you have a LINKEN'S or HOOD of DEFIANCE...
I really like this...
that's it for 10...
windrunner is one of my favorite heroes...

419 By Altoul 2010-03-02

Basher and stygian are musts on her

418 By n7Unleashed 2010-02-13

noob items :D for me... best items:
Mjonir
eye of skady
PT
Orchid
Butter Fly
with this.. you dont need more items.. will own everybody who is on your way :)

CRIT CRIT CRIT
Oh btw got beyond godlike in that game 2 if u were wandering

416 By Pantera[DF] 2010-02-08

@413

I think it would be an ok item but you need to remember that it only has a 10% effect on ranged heroes, and alleria can only focus fire on ONE target so...your honestly only gonna get maybe 1 or 2 stuns. Its good...but for the money there is better. If your BEHIND the enemy and ur team is in front by all means it would be fantastic but its a hard scenario.

415 By makuta204 2010-01-28

@yudista if you are familiar with hotkeys, one click wouldn't be a problem. Avoiding items just cus they make you move your hand an extra centimeter isn't smart

414 By yudista06 2010-01-21

orchid quite not handy coz you need an extra click.
i prefer sange yasha first, simply shackle, goin in front of enemy, windrun, n focus fire, it almost trigger the maim and eventually kill the target.
if the enemy is more than 1 and youre not strong enough, simply harash from far with power shot.
to be gg, combine with skadi. to be even worse, buy buriza, tarrasque, BOT, aghanim, assault.
this hero is perfect counter for late game monsters like trol/bara/PA.

413 By 0d1n 2010-01-19

why not get cranium basher on aleria ???

412 By JayKay42 2009-12-28

your guide isnt quite helping much, you see instead of manta style try Monkey King BAr. How about that? and instead of shiva try eye of sumthing i forgot, but yea. Think about it! CHEERS!

411 By jAcKfRozzt 2009-12-18

WiLL tHis wOrk fOr
"aLLeRia"?

orchid
deso
treads
mkb
aghanims
vanguard? for defence?...

410 By Enigma2k9 2009-11-13

I play with windrunner quite a bit. I done a few different strategies. One item strategy I have done is this:

BoT, Orchid, Mjollin, Scepter, Basher, Blademail

I feel that this makes you impossible to kill alone. Especially if they are melee attacking you, you can activate WW, Mjollin electric ability, or blademail while all at the same time focus firing. While your focus firing, you will get a 10% chance to stun them too. You could drop the Basher and go Buriza for more damage.

409 By StrDhan 2009-10-25

booo!

408 By Shui 2009-10-17

You won’t need butterfly as far as I’m concerned you don’t need the 30% evasion you have Windrunner. The 30% attack speed is nothing compared to Assault Cuirass which grants 40% attack speed the agility is nothing to explain further. Remember Alleria is an intelligence type hero.

Butterfly gives 60% aspd and assault gives 55%. and booth have done that for a long time. maybe fix that in the guide? other than that, nice guide

407 By lllbisin 2009-10-12

Can buy basher too hor

406 By Randolpito2 2009-10-09

How about Domi-buriza-treads-bloodstone? hahaha. what do you think?

405 By Randolpito2 2009-10-09

Im just wondering... Does 3 sobi masks stack with each other? hmm...

404 By sianerzz 2009-09-24

it would be better to start with bracers, or you would be way too soft

403 By Crashbound1 2009-09-12

"- Low HP gain, thus leaving you very vulnerable to Heavy Nuker heroes"

Found under CONS, well I disagree here because a 2.5 STR gain is excellent for an INT hero (she shares equal second with Warlock for highest STR gain!)
