How to play
Pangolier is a Universal hero who scales with every attribute, adapting their item build to whatever the game demands. Look to initiate fights — your kit is built to start engagements on your terms. Built-in escape tools mean you can play aggressively and bail when things go sideways. Natural durability lets you front-line and absorb cooldowns for your team. Your disables and utility are most valuable when enabling your cores to land kills.
